i am trying to configure pureftpd to support virtual users and tls but i am getting this error:

Running: /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd --tls=1 -A -c50 -B -C8 -D -E -fftp -H -I15 -lpuredb:/etc/pureftpd.pdb -L10000:8 -m4 -s -U133:022 -u100 -k99 -Z
/usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd: unrecognized option '--tls=1'

i followed the following steps;
# tar xvzf pure-ftpd-1.0.43.tar.gz
# cd pure-ftpd-1.0.43
# touch /etc/pureftpd.passwd; touch pureftpd.pdb
# ./configure --with everything
# make; make install
# cd configuration-file
#cp pure-ftpd.conf /etc/
#chmod 755 pure-config.pl
# cp pure-config.pl /sbin
# nano /etc/pure-ftpd.conf
Change NoAnonymous no to yes
#mkdir /ftp.files
#adduser pureftpd
#nano /etc/passwd (remove the /bash at the last line of the file with nologin)
#chown -R pureftpdureftpd /ftp.files
#pure-pw useradd user1 -u pureftpd -g pureftpd -d /ftp.files -m
#nano /etc/pure-ftpd.conf Uncomment the line starting with PureDB. (save and exit the editor)
#pure-config.pl /etc/pure-ftpd.conf

Enable TLS support to Pure-FTPD

#mkdir -p /etc/ssl/private
#cd /etc/ssl/private
#openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 7300 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /etc/ssl/private/pure-ftpd.pem -out /etc/ssl/private/pure-ftpd.pem
#chmod 600 pure-ftpd.pem
#pure-config.pl /etc/pure-ftpd.conf -–tls=1

Hi,

The correct option in order to activate TLS is -Y. Read the documentation here.
So you need to use:
If you use a config wrapper, you need to enable TLS in the config file, not add a "--tls=1" option at the command line.
