Hi, how to set up a user ftp account for LXadmin?


I got an unmanaged vps coming with Lxadimin. I can create the ftp properly.

All ftp accounts I made just point to the same directory that I could not modify to other folders.

I want a default general directory (such as ./www/ and something) where I upload the programs using ftp account. How to work it out?

another, is there any default ftp for administration on Lxadmin or vps. I triey differen password and name a lot of times to log on. but it doesn't work.

thanks!!!

To create a new FTP account (other than the default account):
go to the "Domains" page under "Client Home" and click your domain name.
Now click the "FTP Users" icon
Now click the "Add FTP User" tab on the top.
You will have to enter a username for the FTP account, password (twice for confirmation) and then select the virtual directory that you would like the new user to access (the directories outside won't be accessible to this user)

---
yes there is a default ftp account, try user@domain.com
