cannot using FTP move command to move files

adrianmak · 01-07-2003, 09:12 AM

here is my config
/dev/sda1 /
/dev/sda2 swap

/dev/sdb1 /home/mnt/sdb1
/dev/sdb2 /home/mnt/sdb2
/dev/sdb3 /home/mnt/sdb3

a user e.g. peter has granted any access right to /home/mnt
peter home dir is /home/mnt

when he ftp to the server, he upload a file e.g.abc.zip to
/home/mnt/sdb1

now he want to use the ftp client move command to move abc.zip to /home/mnt/sdb2

But he got a error
550 rename: invalid cross-device link

what's the problem ?

Appears to be that the ftp server nots allow the requested operation, or /home/mnt does not allow access to write for peter user.

Perhaps this shows my newness to this forum and the topic, but I always thought the FTP server had a root and it could not write out side of root. I may be mixing it up with TFTP, but I am willing to learn.
