DESCRIPTION
       Virtual users is a simple mechanism to store a  list  of	 users,	 with
       their password, name, uid, directory, etc. It’s just like /etc/passwd.
       But it’s not /etc/passwd. It’s a different file, only for FTP.
       It means that you can easily create FTP-only accounts without  messing
       your system accounts.
       Additionnaly, virtual users files can store individual quotas, ratios,
       bandwidth, etc. System accounts can’t do this.
       Thousands of virtual users can share the same system user, as long  as
       they all are chrooted, and they have their own home directory.

FILES
       /etc/pureftpd.passwd
       /etc/pureftpd.pdb

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       PURE_PASSWDFILE If this variable is defined, this is the default value
       for   the    text    password	file.	 Without    this    variable,
       /etc/pureftpd.passwd is assumed.
       PURE_DBFILE If this variable is defined, this is the default value for
       the PureDB password file. Without this variable, /etc/pureftpd.pdb  is
       assumed.
