[thelist] Creating FTP Users with PHP

Is it possible to create a new user in a Linux system suing PHP. I want to
allow an admin page to create a new user that would create a home directory
for the user and create a username/password that would authenticate in the
FTP server.

How would you go about this. I am on Linux/Apache1.3/ProFTPD, running a
bunch of Virtual Hosts. I would only want the user to be allowed to log in
to their own virtual host.

Is this making sense?
