If user2 is not in the chroot list and he makes an ftp connection, the default directory will be /var/ftp but he can still cd into his home directory (ie cd /home/user2) the vsftpd.conf man page can give u more config options. hth. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
