    FTP Software

    Hey I need a ftp program for linux that i can EASILY setup a new account or user that allows a client to FTP into only one folder, and not be able to go mess around in a folder above that one... any suggestions? Thanks in advance

    ProFTP is nice. It has an apache-like configuration file, will restrict users to their home directory, and has several options for authentication.

    If you setup your users correctly then all you have to do is put this in the proftpd.conf file:


    DefaultRoot ~

    Then they can't go above their home directory.
