    Implicit SSL with VSFTP

    I've got a CentOS 5.2 box and I need to allow FTPS access to a user with Implicit SSL over port 990.

    I need to do this because we have a client who is already uploading files onto a windows server using this method and they want to use the same method to upload to my Linux/Apache server.

    I've discovered that CentOS doesn't have a version of VSFTP new enough to do this correctly, so I downloaded, patched and installed version 2.1 from a Fedora source. It seemed to work correctly, but I still can't seem to get the implicit SSL to work correctly. I've tried putting "Implicit_SSL=YES" but I get this error:

    Starting vsftpd for vsftpd: 500 OOPS: unrecognised variable in config file: Implicit_SSL

    There just don't seem to be any good resources online for this....maybe it won't work how I think it will. Any ideas? Thanks.

    case sensitive?

    You may try "implicit_ssl=yes" instead of "Implicit_SSL=YES". The vsftpd.conf file is case sensitive.
