Creating new FTP users in PHP!

This is just a question out of curiosity but how do company's such as web providors create an area in the control panel where you can create new FTP users. I want to try it out on my own server if I can get some info.

Regards

You'd need to write to the ftp server config file, it is just plain text, so it shouldn't be too difficult. Never tried it myself though...

OK Well thanks alot, I thought it was something along the lines of that but I cannot seem to find anything useful on it!

if its on linux you might be able to use exec to do it.. ( never tried it, dont think its a smart idea either. )
