Re: Ftp access to particular user

Hi,

make sure that ftp service started.
See inetd.conf file and make sure that there is an entry similar to

ftp tream tcp nowait root /usr/lbin/ftpd ftpd -la /etc/ftpd/ftpac:q

edit /etc/ftpd/ftpusers
and add all the users except those you want to gice ftp access.

looks like as follows

#cat /etc/ftpd/ftpusers
user1
user2
user3

make sure that your /etc/ftpaccess have got the following entry.

class all real,anonymous,guest *

If you have made any changed just do
#inetd -c


Hope this helps.
Reply pls.

Regards,
Syam
