I need an FTP server that can track 1 account that logs in, and mainly be able to track 1 specific file that it downloads.
For example
Account
JoeBlow
Logs in, he has access to 2 possible files to download
File A
or
File B
How or what can I use / do to have a tracking system that will tell me how many times File B was downloaded and if possible, what days / time it was.
All info or feedback is appreciated!

I thought that most, if not all, FTP server software can keep logs on user accounts. This should include specific file(s) being u/l and/or d/l and timestamps. Also how long the user was online and timestamps. Check the user accounts section of Bulletproof, it could be disabled for some reason and you're not tracking anybody at this point.

yeah g6 does log EVERYTHING
but what i want more or less is for it to log specifics as in
Account A downloaded file ABC x amount of times
thing is G6 and such logs evrything so
Account A downloaded files ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
see what i mean - what i need is for the ftp server to ONLY log if a certian file is downloaded..

Quote:So you need an FTP Server to log only when something specific triggers it, in this case if User a d/l file b for instance ?!?
I can't say I've come across one that would do this, sorry
EXACTLY!
i am looking @ various scripts for G6 adn was told ProFTP may do htis, so got some testing to do.

would it be possible to use MySQL database? as my friend knows PHP very well and could write something in a second.
