Hi all; I'm setting up an anonymous ftp server for a business application and I am having some difficulties getting the permissions to work out like I want. freebsd-security seemed to be the best place, but if there is a better choice, someone email me and I'll change tack. I have a system configured with a user account (johndoe for the sake of conversation) who is in the operator group. The server accepts anonymous ftp connections to allow clients to upload files. Issue number one is I would like that directory to be blind, ie: allow upload without allowing the anonymous users to browse the directory. I'm not sure if that has to be done as a permission or a config file. Secondly, once a file has been uploaded by an anonymous ftp users, I need johndoe to be able to move and delete those files. For now, the default permission is 644 which doesn't allow the user to delete or rename the files. They can be copied, but not deleted. Again, this could be due to bad permissions or to config files. I've ready through the ftpd man pages and haven't found anything that "feels" right. Any and all help is greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.
