For example: user is logged into /home/users/someuser, # they can cd to /home/users, but not down to /home; and therefore not to # anything below /home (eg: /etc). Have you tried ProFTPD? You can configure it so that all users (except for a listed set of groups) will login and the default root would be their home directories. That way you won't have to worry about chroot or ftpchroot. It also supports virtual servers and configures like Apache (even has .ftpaccess for those who grok .htaccess). -- Linh Pham [lplist@closedsrc.org] // 404b - Brain not found To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
