Gnarlie's script creates a new, full user on the system. Use his
technique and the hints found at
<http://www.ldml.com/services/support/macosx/ftpUserCreate.html> to
create FTP only users.

without quitting and restarting. Any ideas, specifically with Rumpus

other FTP program where I can dynamically create/delete users, would

greatly appreciated.
