how can i create the home directory for http and ftp.

Usually these are created for you when you install http or ftp software. On most distros the home directory for ftp is /var/ftp or /home/ftp. For http, this depends on the distro or method of installation so read your distros docs. Mine is /usr/local/apache2/htdocs because I always compile apache from source. You can change these directories if you wish, you would have to change the config settings for whatever ftp and http server you are using.

For httpd and ftp you call it a root directory not home directory


By default [in redhat distro]
For httpd the root directory is
/var/www/html

And for ftp it is available in /var dir [I dont remember the location]

To change the root directory you can edit the respective configuration files
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf for Httpd
and
the config file for ftp.

Note:
Also remeber to change the ownership of the new root directories to the correspoding user [for httpd the user will be apache or nobody and for ftp the user will be ftp]
