Create new FTP user under PHP script

Hi everybody

I have running ftp server ( NcFTPd Server ) and needed to create new FTP account (I have shell access on the server ) and set permission om the one folder)

Example :

1) Need to create new FTP account (user : phpwebdev / PWD : phpwebdev_pwd)
2) Create new folder (server.com/phpwebdev/)
3) set permission on this folders

Any ideas????

i think this should go in the PHP forum, but:

#2 and #3 can both be done with simple file commands, such as mkdir(), and chmod().

however, from my understanding, #1 will require some special library or 3rd party something to connect to punch in codes in a command line to your server. i heard it's really hard, and i dont know much more about it.

for #1, i'd ask your server software's vendor about it. they might be of further help.
