FTP USER

Daniel Ubeda — Fri, 12 Apr 2002 14:48:05 GMT

I want to create various ftp users (not anonymous), but I need those users can not execute the cd command and they stay in each homes and can't move up.
I configure ftpd trough ftpaccess file, but I can't do that.

In the /etc/passwd file,

ftpusername::1003:92::/ftp/./incoming:/etc/ftponly

When guest1 successfully logs in, the ftp server will chroot(/ftp) and then chdir (/incoming). The guest user will only be able to access the directory structure under /ftp (which will look and act as / to guest1), just as an anonymous FTP user would.

Hi,

Try this:

Make a entry of the user login id in ftp.allow file and 'exit' command at the end of .profile file.
