<0> I have a bunch of data in two directories - /files/media and /files/data/other that I want to give access to a particular login. I'd also like the person to be unable to traverse anymore of the file system. Is this possible?
<0> by traverse anymore of the filesystem I mean except for within those two directories..
<1> yes, use <Directory> + <LIMIT> + AllowUser
<1> http://proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/by-name.html
<1> uh, I'm going to sleep



<0> thanks
<2> is there a way to make proftpd return a message to the user that there account has been disabled? im using proftpd with mysql support for the users
<3> huh, I'm sure that there is, I just don't remember it right now
<3> it was relatively easy
<3> give me a few minutes to dig
<2> cause i was thinking of just having a field and setting it to true /false and the mysql query just returns nothing obviously if its false, but that just says username/p*** invalid not account disabled
<3> sorry you will have to wait... i have some work now
<2> thats kewl :)
<3> internat, you can use this: AccessDenyMsg
<3> but I'm not sure that it can be customized to use the output of the mysql authentication
<2> yeah and thats where the problem is
<3> internat, see also this: DisplayGoAway
<4> anyone about?
<5> yes
<4> would u happen to know much about proftpd?
<5> yes
<4> wkd
<4> :)
<4> i got a small question
<4> is this possible:



<4> i want users to log into: /ftp/*username*/
<4> then in *username*/ have symlinks to other dirs
<4> is that possible?
<5> use: DefaultRoot /ftp/%u/
<5> but symlinks don't work well within chroots
<5> see: http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/doc/contrib/ProFTPD-mini-HOWTO-Chroot.html
<4> doesn't that jail the user to that dir?
<5> yes
<5> if you don't want to restrict them
<4> so then symlinks dont work
<4> wait.. ive just been on this site
<5> then you can either try 'DefaultChdir /ftp/%u/', or change the user's home directories as appropriate
<4> wkd
<4> brb
<4> going to try
<4> thanks for you help :)
<4> DefaultRoot doesn't work with a %u variable.. just defaults to /
<4> umm
<4> wait
<4> castaglia, thanks it worked
<4> the only thing
<4> was looking at that site about binding dirs
