==== FTP space provisioning ====


Generally FTP sites are provisioned on the server that hosts the main website. In the case of NT based FTP sites, we usually provision them on the server with the most space available.

1) Provision site on server
  a) Done via NH script (webadd_ftp): webadd_ftp [-h] [-d domain] [-u username] [-p password] [-n]
     # /nethere/sbin/webadd_ftp -h  <- for usage
     EX: for ftp.domain.tld:
     # /nethere/sbin/webadd_ftp -d ftp.domain.tld -u username -p password
     (leaving off the -n will restart the proftpd process)
  b) Note: The host IP address will be given when the provisioning is completed, use that ip (a.b.c.d) for DNS entries
  c) Note: If this is an existing customer on the server, you'll need to increase the quota manually by 100 MB for the customer, see the section on quota increases for more info.

2) Adjust DNS for domain on ns1.nethere.net
  a) Checkout zone for domain
  b) Add ftp host entry for domain, adjust serial
     EX for domain.tld:
--cut--
ftp	IN	A	a.b.c.d
--cut--
  c) Check in zone for domain
  d) Reload zone
     # rndc reload domain.tld
3) Adjust PTR record for domain, adjust serial
  a) Checkout zone for a.b.c
  b) Add record for domnain:
--cut--
d	IN	PTR 	ftp.domain.tld.
--cut--
  c) Check in zone for a.b.c
  d) Reload zone
     # rndc reload c.b.a.in-addr.arpa
4) Check for DNS errors
  a) tail /var/log/namedb
