    I'm extremely sorry for such a noob question but I have to do something really fast and my sysadmin has his internet connection broken :(

    I want to backup files from within windows (with Genie Backup Manager) and want to setup a new ftp account which leads to a certain /var/www/ folder.

    I'm not even sure which ftp app we have installed but I think vsFTPD.

    Could someone be so kind to explain me how I can set this up and first of all how I can find out which app i'm running for FTP?

    Thank you so much!
