Hi,

I have managed to bring up my ftp server using cirtual users and have confined all of them to a directory. i have 1 more question which i cannot seem to find an answer to.

I intend to allow each virual user different access to different directories on my hard disks. How should i go about for this? While this thread is being posted, i am still trying to figure out the answers, pls advice.

when adding a user, you can define the home directory for that user. In most cases /home/'username'.
But for example the user ftp it's /var/ftp or /var/ftp/pub. So when you add a new user or wish to change an users home directory that's what your looking for.

How did you do that?? I just can't lock up users in their folders... I had to stop the daemon because my ftp users were messing around with my etc files!!!

How can I lock them into their folders?

for local users, add "chroot_local_user=YES" to your config file
