Sendmail and Proftpd mysql help

you just want to make a databse with their name/password so that you can retrieve them in case they lose it or something?

yes
to create an admin panel to add some mail and ftp account

what do you know about databases? all you have to do is make the table and insert the data..  I am not sure what to describe here, what do you want help with?

I want to store, the /etc/passwd into a MySQL DB with the passwd password. I`ll have an admin panel in php to create some mail account and ftp account.

humm its the mysql how to... i dont think i`ll find how to put the passwd into a mysql db..

do you know how to make a database?
you can store the passwd file in there..

do you want a script to insert it or what?

The password file is encrypted, so if you store it and they lose thier password you cant give it back to them..

yes i know how to creat a DB. I just dont know how to store the pass and user into the DB.

in which file the password is encrypted?

ok tx i`ll see.

Oh, the ideea is that ftp and mail users should have (almost) nothing to do with the system accounts.

ftp and mail use actualy the same account. Depend if i creat pop account only. The user list is on /etc/passwd. I want to put all the user and pass into mysql

It's a little bit difficult to use a db instead of /etc/passwd. You can use db for ftp and mail accounts though, if that's what you want.

Actaully what do you want to do ?

yes i want to create an admin panel for my client that can add mail account itself
