restricted ftp capabilities

Rick Garland — Tue, 14 Sep 2004 12:24:08 GMT

Hi all:

HPUX 11.11 rp7410 PHNE_29461 installed

Setting up a restricted ftp account. Have the user in a chroot jail in the directory I want them to be in. Problem - unable to see any of the files within that directory. The restricted user needs to be able to "see" the files so the user knows which file(s) to delete.

Help is appreciated

What is the permissions of the user's home direcory ?

Did you create a usr/bin structure under the user's home directory and copy /sbin/ls ? - you might also need to copy /etc/passwd and /etc/group file to /etc directory.
