CF writing to FTP INI

[wantstolearncfm]

Hi,
I am using bullet proof FTP and want to write to the users.ini file when i add a new ftp user (or when they add there own user).
I found

http://tutorial25.easycfm.com/

Which shows me this

<cfscript>
   user = SetProfileString("C:\windows\settings.ini", "settings", "user", "#FORM.NEWUSERNAME#")
   Pass = SetProfileString("C:\windows\settings.ini", "settings", "user", "#FORM.NEWPASSWORD#")
   Path = SetProfileString("C:\windows\settings.ini", "settings", "user", "#FORM.NEWPATH#")
</cfscript>

So i need to pass a Form with the values in there etc i can do that but how do i write all that the ftp server needs and what do i need to adapt
For every user there is this

[userfrom form]
Login=user from for,
Pass=pass from form
Home-Ip=-= All IP Homes =-
RelativePath=1
TimeOut=600
MaxConPerIp=1
MaxUsers=0
RatioMethod=0
RatioUp=1
RatioDown=1
RatioCredit=0
MaxSpeedRcv=512
MaxSpeedSnd=512
QuotaCurrent=0
QuotaMax=0
Dir0=C:\directory will be spec by CF
Attr0=RWDAMLSK
Stat_Login=2
Stat_LastLogin=29/06/2004 17:34:14
Stat_LastIP=10.0.0.7
Stat_KBUp=0
Stat_KBDown=0
Stat_FilesUp=0
Stat_FilesDown=0
Stat_FailedUp=0
Stat_FailedDown=0

Cheers

Hi again,
I think i should elaborate, i am well and truly stumped.
How do i set this per user added i.e my sign up makes the login and pass fileds required do i just tell it to
login=setprofilestring
("c:\thedir\users.ini", "form.login", "form.login", "form.pass") i just cant see it working at all

Another update from me seeing as no one seems to be posting.
I am trying to make the example on easycfm work but it gives me compiler errors
Could someone guide me through this?
Cheers

maybe you could post the error you are getting with the example? "compiler error" is kinda vague.

also, regarding your second post

login=setprofilestring("c:\thedir\users.ini", "form.login", "form.login", "form.pass")

should look more like

login=setprofilestring("c:\thedir\users.ini", "userfrom form", "Login", "#form.login#")

a look at livedocs will help you out

the second attribute of SetProfileString is the ini section to be edited, the third is the entry to be edited, and the fourth is the new value

i've never done this before, but a quick look at the docs should tell you what you need to know

im sorry, attribute is an improper term- should be parameter.
