sysadmin@ubuntu /etc $ ls vsftpd*
vsftpd-users.db  vsftpd.conf  vsftpd.conf.backup

vsftpd:
vsftpd.pem

what is this vsftpd: vsftpd.pem part, and what does it mean? I never seen such before. does it mean that a file named vsftpd.pem exists in /etc ?

  • Which version of Ubuntu are you using? I am curious because I would like to know which version reacts like this from the ls command.
