create "user" and set home directory of that user
"/var/www/html" and upload file.

Thanks so much that was the problem and I can now
login ! I was away
hence the slow response ..
I hope you don't mind another question ..
when I try to upload the index.html page to the
directory below I get
the following error.
where do I give permissions to real users to upload?
! Upload failed on 64.179.20.24
(/var/www/html/index.html). (upload not
allowed)
TIA

The problem may be "guestuser *".
If you make guestuser *, then no one can login with
user/password. All user
are assumed as guest and can access ftp home
directory only.

Subject: FTP access with RH 7.2
This is probably a simple question for most
experienced Linux users but
I have been trying to get FTP going for my new
server for several weeks
with no joy. I can telnet to the server, I have
enabled FTP in the
wu-ftpd file and restarted xinetd. I can open FTP
from the telnet
command line but I cannot login to FTP from an FTP
client program as
root or any other user name. I just want to FTP
some files to the WWW
area for a simple website.
Here is the ftp log
~ Connected to westheimers.net, waiting for
response...
< 220 westheimers.net FTP server (Version
wu-2.6.2-11.72.1) ready.
USER tom
< 331 Password required for tom.
PASS *****
< 530 Login incorrect.
! Invalid username or password for
westheimers.net
~ Could not login to westheimers.net
The user name and password is correct
my ftpaccess file is as follows:
# This file controls the behavior of the wu-ftpd
# ftp server.
#
# If you're looking for a graphical frontend to
# editing it, try kwuftpd from the kdeadmin
# package.

# realuser user1,user2
# The ftpchroot group doesn't exist by default,
this
# entry is just supplied as an example.
# To chroot a user, modify the line below or
create
# the ftpchroot group and add the user to it.
#
# You will need to setup the required applications
# and libraries in the root directory (set using
# guest-root).
#
# Look at the anonftp package for the files you'll
need.

# Prevent anonymous users (and partially guest

# Turn on logging to /var/log/xferlog

# If /etc/shutmsg exists, don't allow logins
# see ftpshut man page
shutdown /etc/shutmsg
# Ask users to use their email address as

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! The
more I learn about
Linux the more impressed I get!
TIA
