PureFTPd is run within a docker container with volumes mounted from the host for access to content.

• puppet: ​https://config.tombstones.org.uk:23000/tombstones/puppet-pureftpd
• image: stilliard/pure-ftpd:hardened
• project: ​https://github.com/stilliard/docker-pure-ftpd
• config: /var/lib/data/pureftpd
• content: "/var/lib/content/pureftpd

for additional details on volumes, ports etc refer to the container information docker inspect

You will manage users by entering the container (to be scripted)

docker exec -it pureftpd-server /bin/bash

NB: do not create scripts within the container if you don't know what you are doing, they will be lost on a rebuild. Instead consider creating scripts on the host that wrap around docker_exec} functionality
