DESCRIPTION
     Virtual  users  is  a simple mechanism to store a list of users, with their
     password, name, uid, directory, etc. It's just like /etc/passwd.  But  it's
     not /etc/passwd. It's a different file, only for FTP.
     It  means that you can easily create FTP-only accounts without messing your
     system accounts.
     Additionally, virtual users files	can  store  individual	quotas,  ratios,
     bandwidth, etc. System accounts can't do this.
     Thousands	of virtual users can share the same system user, as long as they
     all are chrooted, and they have their own home directory.

FILES
     /usr/local/etc/pureftpd.passwd
     /usr/local/etc/pureftpd.pdb

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     PURE_PASSWDFILE If this variable is defined, this is the default value  for
     the    text    password	file.	 Without    this    variable,	/usr/lo-
     cal/etc/pureftpd.passwd is assumed.
     PURE_DBFILE If this variable is defined, this is the default value for  the
     PureDB password file. Without this variable, /usr/local/etc/pureftpd.pdb is
     assumed.
