I am going to build a server that will allow many users FTP (no shell) access to their home www directories. I've recently switched to freeBSD from Linux. I was going to use suEXEC but reading this list I've seen mention of jail on freeBSD. It's easy in freeBSD to keep the FTP users in their directory, I mean easier than Linux anyway, so that parts handled. But, if I want to give these users some power, i.e., cgi, SSI, .htaccess, etc., I'm going to have to do my security homework. So...which way should I go first, jail or suEXEC or what? both? Assume the "quality" of the FTP users are potentially very evil. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
