Hello!

I have fedora 6 with vsftp. Could anyone tell me how to configure vsftpd.conf for user1 and user2 to ftp their home dir for r/w and a share folder say /home/ftp only read? I looked the forum but confused. I know anonymous ftp, I disable it. I want local user to ftp. I know default ftp dir is /var/ftp,can I change it to, for example /var/www/home or /home/ftp?

Here is what I have done:
1.create user1,user2 and home dir in /home/user1,/home/user2
2.create group: ftpusers includes user1,user2
3.change permission: root:ftpusers -drwxr-wr-w /home/ftp
user1:ftpusers drwx------ /home/user1
user2:ftpusers drwx------ /home/user2

When login as user1, error 500 can not change dir /home/user1 connection closed...

Thanks
