ftpcount
The ftpcount command shows the current number of connections per server and virtualβhost/anonymous configuration defined in the proftpd.conf file. Connections spawned by inetd are counted separately from those created by a master proftpd standalone server.
-h, --helpπ Display a short usage description, including all available options.
-f, --file scoreboard-fileπ Specify the full path to proftpd's run-time scoreboard file (configured via the ScoreboardFile directive in proftpd.conf). If proftpd's default directory has been changed via this directive, ftpcount must either be recompiled or this option must be used in order to find proftpd's scoreboard.
-S, --server server-nameπ― Specify the ServerName for a specific virtual host. If used, ftpcount will only show the session count for the given virtual host.
