ftpaccess and chroot

Ed Arizona — Fri, 02 Nov 2001 16:14:43 GMT

I'm having a devil of a time configuring ftpaccess to chroot ftp logins.

I've created each login as per a typical anonymous ftp.

I've edited the /etc/passwd file so the user homes are "/home/user1/./pub".

I created an ftpaccess file as below:

guestuser user1
class all real,guest *

I've edited /etc/inetd.conf so the ftp daemon has the "-a" option.

What ELSE do I need to do to get this fricking thing to !@#$% work? It's driving me nuts.

Thanks!

-Ed.

Richard,

Thanks. I didn't know that whole directory tree was there. It's working now.
