No I did not. I had started originally with the http://linuxforfun.net/2008/04/05/vsftpd-virtual-users/ link, and then when I came across the wiki article, I gleaned if for further additional info. > > > I don't want to enable anon access.

Ok, for more detail, I used some of the info from the wiki, and from http://linuxforfun.net/2008/04/05/vsftpd-virtual-users/ . My actual vsftpd.conf is: anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES chroot_local_user=YES hide_ids=YES listen=YES local_umask=022 connect_from_port_20=YES pasv_min_port=62222 pasv_max_port=63333 guest_enable=YES guest_username=ftp nopriv_user=ftp virtual_use_local_privs=YES write_enable=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd-virtual user_sub_token=$USER local_root=/home/ftproot/$USER listen_address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx max_clients=50 session_support=NO use_localtime=YES userlist_enable=YES userlist_file=/etc/vsftpd/denied_users xferlog_enable=YES my /etc/pam.d/vsftpd-virtual file: auth required pam_userdb.so db=/etc/vsftpd/users/virtual-users account required pam_userdb.so db=/etc/vsftpd/users/virtual-users So long story short... I have for read / write: user1 -> /home/ftproot/user1 (home folder) Then I would like to create user2 and have read only: user2 -> /home/ftproot/user1 D _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
