I would like to know how to set each user/account so they can only have 5 connections to their FTP account at a time. I have gone into proftpd.conf and set:

MaxClientsPerHost 5 "Sorry, all 5 FTP sessions are in use."

But I tested it out myself and it seems to still be set to 3. I am guessing this has something to do with cPanel/WHM.

Would anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you

HIHI~

Make sure it is the global setting... if you put this inside a virtualhost, the changes only apply to that virtual ftp server~
If you put it in the global setting, all the ftp servers are limited to 5 sessions from the same user... :)

I do have it as a global setting(not within virtual host tags). It's up at the top right under DefaultRoot ~ !wheel

Ahh I found the problem. By default cPanel sets a MaxClients for each host. So all I have to do is go and edit them all. Or just delete them and set a glocal limit.

oh i see~ is CPanel :stickout:
