Thank you for your advice with the -rf command. As you can see, it is
working now:
11/20/98 07:18:13 AM EXEC rc=0 cmd=cp -rf /home/ftp /home/KKonnector
My final question is this: for virtual FTP accounts where the idea is to
"lock" the user into just their home directory (no filesystem browsing or
shell, just so they can update the HTML files associated with the Apache
Web account), what is the proper permission / ownership for the html and
html-logs directories?
The goal is for the user to have complete control over the html directory -
such as adding subdirectories (but not be able to delete html itself), and
for the user to only be able to read the files in the html-logs directory,
but not to delete them or the directory. Right now all I am doing is this:
11/20/98 07:18:09 AM EXEC rc=0 cmd=chown KKonnector
/home/KKonnector/html
11/20/98 07:18:09 AM EXEC rc=0 cmd=chown KKonnector
/home/KKonnector/html-logs
But I think I should change it to:
chown KKonnector.root /home/KKonnector/html
chown root.root /home/KKonnector/html
Is this correct? And then what would I do for chown on these two
directories to accomplish my goals? This is on Red Hat v5.1.
Thanks again!
Justin
