I have installed pureftp and it is working fine.

There is a feature that i would like to have which is that the user can not upload any files. I know this can be done via linux permissions, but is it possible to set this in the pureftpd config. I was thinknig settuing the UploadLimit to 0, but 0 in pureftpd means unlimited.

anyone know how to actually set UploadLimit to 0 so no one can actually upload any files.

The reason i want deny upload this way is that my goal is to deny users upload, but allow them to delete exisiting files.

any way of achieving this will be helpful.

Thanks

There is no current way you can allow users to only delete things via Pure-FTPd configuration. You can try Linux ACL's or RBAC.

janoszen, do you know if there is any way of only denying upload OR only denying delete to the user via the pureftpd config?

You can deny upload AND delete. OR is not an option, especially by only using FTP config. You could try the quota setting for 1 file and 1 byte.
