Spaces character in directory names for FTP: not working

[Dudiello]

Hi,

when setting up the directory for the FTP service, if the selected directory contains a space character, it does not allow the correct configuration to the service (e.g. unable to login) as the FTP truncates the directory name.

E.g. /mnt/raid/various files/ becomes /mnt/raid/various/

So everything after the space character is truncated....

I checked the proftpd.conf and basically there are missing quotes in the directory name:

<Anonymous /mnt/raid/various files>
User ftp
Group ftp
UserAlias anonymous ftp
<Limit LOGIN>
AllowAll
</Limit>
</Anonymous>

Manually adding the quotes, fixes the problem...but of course not the right solution
