FTP accounts without @<domainname.com>

[Samplex]

How can i create ftp users so they dont have to use the whole john@<fqdn.com> as user name, i just want user john as username to login to the ftp.

From what I know, only users with a owned IP can have that.
Everyone with a shared ip can't have that.

I would also like to know if this can be set differently, cause now u can't login using a premade url, like ftp://user:pass@domain.com

Also don't understand why the main account don't need a @ with email in the username, and the rest does...

It is set like this to prevent two domains from creating the same user, the main account doesnt need it because all account names already have to be unique. I do not know of any variables that can change this (although that does sound like a good addition) but you can manually change these names by editting /etc/proftpd.passwd and removing the @domain.com from the username and saving the file. Make sure not to delete anything but the @domain.com because deleting the : that follows will break the passwd file.
