Thanks. hotice007 05-19-2002, 03:15 PM i'm using ProFTP server, but I would install another if it doesn't do the job. choon 05-19-2002, 11:39 PM Hi, Just depends on your needs and method of auth... I use proftpd also... you can create another unix/linux user using: adduser -g yourapachegroup -d /path/to/whatever/subdirectory/you/like/this/user/to/be/in -s /bin/false newuserusername The above is one way which using /etc/passwd for auth. user... Hope this helps!
