PurePostPro

The versatile pureFTPd post-processing system !

pureFTPd is a powerful and versatile FTP server that provides the capability to run an upload
script once an upload has been completed. This facility suggests new ways of intelligently
handling incoming files without affecting the performance of the FTP server.

 The PurePostPro suite uses Perl and a MySQL database to handle uploads.

Work In Progress..

The upload handler is only one side of the story: once the files have been uploaded, and the database entries recorded, something needs to be done with the data. I am currently writing a Perl script that runs as a daemon process, and this in turn will read the database on a regular basis and perform the appropriate actions. Keep checking back !
