Oh, one more thing: you can of course customize your pure-ftpd to go into any directory path you like. Read the README file in /usr/share/doc/packages/pure-ftpd for more info. I have not bothered with that as I run an anonymous-only ftpd server on one of my machines that I need occasionally to allow co-workers to transfer large files without having to give them a shell. Best regards, Alex. On Fri, 10 Oct 2003, Alex Angerhofer wrote:
Well, the default path for the contents is /srv/ftp. I guess you could symlink a home directory to a sub-directory there, but I would consider this a security risk. Anyway, whatever the users down-load or upload will be in the /srv/ftp directory.
Hope this helps, Alex.

I checked the /etc/pure-ftpd.conf but i didn't any reference to the path i want to use as the default (every user can login to that directory and upload or download eveything that he wants)

That directory is /srv and IIRC is generated automatically by SuSE and will be used by the pure-ftpd daemon for up- and downloads, Make sure you configure your /etc/pure-ftpd.conf file according to your needs, and take a look at the man page to avoid unnecessary security risks.
Cheers, ALex.

What i want is, to make a folder under the root (i.e. www) and then to point the www or a subfolder as the start point of every ftp user.

Quoting pseep@mail.gr:
I have set up the pure-ftpd and everything works fine. When i loggin via ftp to my server (not as root) i want to be able to write/update/delete the files in /srv/www/htdocs because i use the machine as webserver.
What is the command to make an ordinary user supplied with the administrative previlleges?
Why don't you just put the ftp user you are using into the /etc/group under root.?
