     Help,
     
     I ran through all of the Novice config on a host to set it up as an 
     Anonymous FTP server.  Everything went smoothly, except I expected 
     that anonymous users would be able to write only to the incoming 
     (/usr/ftp/incoming) directory and not the pub (/usr/ftp/pub) 
     directory.  The permissions on /usr/ftp/pub show "drwxrwxr-x for 
     owner=root and group=operator.
     
     The group operator has root and staff users as members (staff is to be 
     used as a login for internal users).
     
     So how does ftp allow anonymous access to write to pub, and how do I 
     correct this?
     
     Thanks in advance,
