Hi!

I have a problems with FTP File Uploads (on VSFTPD), the Apache Web Server and File Permissions.

After having created a new user on my system, I create an Apache Virtual Host to the public_html directory of the newly created user's home dir. When I upload files to this directory via FTP the file permissions are set to "-rw-------".

When I try to access the virtual host with my webbrowser I get a error "You don't have permission to ..."

How can I get VSFTPD to set the permissions of the uploaded files to 777 (or whatever is necessary) automatically so that Apache will show the pages.

Thanks,
Matthias

I have a simillar problem.

On our network we have various users on windows computers uploading to a gentoo vsftpd box. the problem is that files uploaded from windows via vsftpd retain their original windows permission settings. I would like vsftpd to override the permissions on each file uploaded so they have 664 permission set.

How could i do this? thanks.

local_umask=022 in vsftpd.conf should resolve your problem
