Intesting FTP server idea

[goggles99]

interesting idea... however it may be a little more difficult than you think.

(correct me if I am wrong)
vBulletin only stores salted md5 hashes of passwords, not the actual passwords themselves. So your ftp server must be able to hash and salt your password before comparison.

This makes things a little more complicated...
It is still possible however. Any vBulletin script coders here? (I'm sure there is)
