Anyhows I know the config file is in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf but how do I configure it to be multi-users with no anonymous access. This is only for a friend and myself to use. I have created our usernames and passwords but how to choose what directories we have access to? I want my account (mosherben) to access /var/www/ for complete control of the FTP server and service so I can change the permissions of a subfolder using an FTP client if I dont like something I see in one of the folders. I want my friends account (pectabyte) to access /var/www/pectaybte to control his area of the FTP service. Both accounts need full permissions (7). Can someone help me figure the configuration out? Thanks, Ben PS: I havnt updated any packages yet using up2date before someone asks. _________________________________________________________________ Getting married?
