Re: Restrict users access to ftp and make su to root
Many possible scenarios. Start with:
a) Edit /var/adm/inetd.sec and
limit access to FTP daemon on the server.
b) Edit files in /etc/ftpd to tune up the
FTP services:
ftpaccess
ftpusers
c) Enable SU_ROOT_GROUP variable in
/etc/default/security config file and
make users that need to su(1M) to root be
part of that Unix group.
If I had it my way, I would disable FTP and
move to SSH/SFTP.
Likewise, maybe setting RBAC for some users
would help avoid the need to give them su(1M) access to root.
Cheers,

Re: Restrict users access to ftp and make su to root
the ftpaccess file is counter intuitive. You add people to it to restrict access.
Also, some ws-ftpd releases had bugs that allowed root access.
I would drop ftp in favor of openssh sftp if possible.
