Hi Everyone,

I have a Debian Dedicated server and I want to enable Implicit SSL on it using VSFTPD and I am having a hard time.

I have read online and the only thing I can really find is how to enable SSL and in the man pages it lists one implicit ssl command. but since Implicit ssl uses a second listener (990 by default) I have no idea how to make it work on Debian.

Has anyone managed to get this working?

Here is my config:

listen=YES
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
local_umask=022
connect_from_port_20=YES
pam_service_name=vsftpd
ssl_enable=YES
allow_anon_ssl=NO
force_local_data_ssl=NO
force_local_logins_ssl=NO
ssl_tlsv1=YES
ssl_sslv2=NO
ssl_sslv3=NO
rsa_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/vsftpd.pem

if I include Implicit_SSL=YES the server won't even start.

thanks
