Restricting ftp users to their directory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Thank you...that is what I was looking for.  However, I have a question: 
the man page does not give any information and when I go to vsfptd.conf, 
"chroot_local_user" is not listed as an option.  Have I missed 
something"  Do I need another cup of cofee?

I went to another server of mine and I did find that I had added 
"chroot_local_user=YES".
