Permission Denied with VSFTPD

whitetiger0990 · 01-01-2005, 03:47 PM

I set up VSFTPD and allowed local users to log in. I also create a group called people and added fred to it and gave fred his own folder. When I connect to VSFTPD as fred with his password it logs on fine. I can transfer files from it but I can't transfers files to it. It says "550 Permission Denied"

Help please =)

I'm a linux newbie, can you tell me how?

If gentoo is the similar to mandrake 10.1, then right click on the folder and go to properties, then permissions. check off all the ones that say write

could a gentoo user verify this?

I am using command line.

But I also got it

In the vsftpd.conf it wasn't set so people could write.
