    Is anyone here a helpful expert on WebMin?

    I'm trying to setup an FTP account (I already have ProFTPd installed).

    Right now I'm stuck using the File Manager, but it's a pain.

    log in as admin or root or... the main user in webmin (the one with all permisions).

    go to system/users and groups

    click create a new user

    select an username, leave homedir in automatic, let webmin pick the user id, select as shell /bin/sh, click on "normal password" and choose a password, leave all other as webmin is offering, and ckick create.

    that will create an user with a pass

    try now to ftp to your.domain and log in as user/pass
