FTP in HPUX
When a user FTP to FTP Server which is running HPUX (inetd based FTP), they should be in a common shared directory, they should not be in their home directory.
Creating users with common home directory might bring some security problems.
Is there any other way that we can achieve this ?
Thank you.

Re: FTP in HPUX
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -Lliou 077
the 077 being the umask value, makes the files a user uploads, accessible to only that user and no one else.
if what you mean by security is that kind of access problem, this is your solution. If you are talking about another type of security issue, you need to spell it out more clearly.
Hope this helps

Re: FTP in HPUX
I have many users, when they FTP to FTP server, they should be in /common.
right now i know, i can solve this issue with creating all users with /common as their home directory.
I just want to know, is there any other ways that we can achieve this.
Thanks.

Re: FTP in HPUX
ln -s /common /home/ftpuser1
but I do not see a benefit of doing this than giving them the home directory as /common
So, I am still not quite sure what you are after

Re: FTP in HPUX
So, when a user initially FTP to a FTP server, by-default, he should be in /common, and from their he can download/upload files.

Re: FTP in HPUX
for this requirment you need to implement chroot for your ftp user id.

Re: FTP in HPUX
your "/common", and have everyone use that
user name for FTP?
I don't know of a good way to do what you
ask. I would probably tell the users how to
do a "cd" command in their FTP client
programs.
