Hi ! I installed the proftpd today and I am quite happy with that ! proftp is a package wich comes with Suse. For documentation on this, look at www.proftpd.net rgs Michael Matthias Meyer wrote:

Hi,

take a look in the Suse support database...this is a known problem. Try searching for ftp or wuftpd or so.

Hi folks,

I just found some strange behaviour of my ftpd (wu.ftpd). When logging in as anonymous, the user is pointed to /usr/local/ftp and a chroot is done. Okay, this is correct and what I want. But, no matter what subdirs and what files are in this directory, the user cannot see anything, no files, no subdirs, nothing. For the user it seems as if the directory is totaly empty. Hmm, I think I did something wrong, but I cannot find any error. Does one of you know what could be the cause of this ? (BTW, file-permissions is NOT the error) Maybe I did something wrong when trying to secure the server :-(

Thanks in advance
