Fedora ftp server

Hi
I've configured the vsftpd.conf, and the ftp server is running normally. I created some users, they can login and with the dir command, they can see their files. But, there is a problem: when I mount a filesystem with the mount --bind, the users cannot see the directory mounted, nor change directory (cd) to it, even with chmod 777. This happen when using ms-dos prompt. It issues the following error: 550 Failed to change directory. However, with "ls" command, they can see the mount point ( but still cannot cd to it).

Any help will be fine.
Thks

Re: Fedora ftp server

Can you post output from:

ls -ld /path/mountpoint
ls -ld /path

If everything is ok with permissions check if you have selinux installed. In this case try:

setsebool ftpd_disable_trans 1
service vsftpd restart



regards,
ivan

Ivan, thks a lot. The setsebool ftpd_disable_trans 1 command did solve my problem. Thks again.
