activate mod_rewrite with proftpd

[Quentin_Crambes]

Hello,

My company and I are currently discovering Plesk on a CentOS 6.6 based system. We are migrating from an old system on which FTP usernames could hold uppercase letters, which apparently is not the case in Plesk 11 (or is it because of CentOS?).

Anyway, as we can't change these FTP account names, I was thinking about creating a rule with mod_rewrite in the proftpd.conf file.
So the question is: how can I reinstall/reconfigure proftpd with this module activated? I don't even know where to find the corresponding package (which repo, correct version, etc...)

I am not the first one to ask, but it seems that so far no one answered.

Thanks!

Quentin

proftpd package in Plesk compiled by Parallels:

[root@ppu12-1 ~]# rpm -qi psa-proftpd | grep Vendor
Version : 1.3.5 Vendor: Parallels

and unfortunately it is compiled without mod_rewrite module:

[root@ppu12-1 ~]# /usr/sbin/proftpd -l
Compiled-in modules:
mod_core.c
mod_xfer.c
mod_rlimit.c
mod_auth_unix.c
mod_auth_file.c
mod_auth.c
mod_ls.c
mod_log.c
mod_site.c
mod_delay.c
mod_facts.c
mod_ident.c
mod_auth_pam.c
mod_ratio.c
mod_readme.c
mod_quotatab.c
mod_quotatab_file.c
mod_tls.c
mod_cap.c
mod_lang.c
