VSFTPD, user permissions
Response: 200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
Command: STOR (royksopp)-remind_me.mpg Response: 550 Permission denied. Hello, I am trying to allow a user to be able to send files to my server through ftp. As a test he sent an mp3 file but got the above message. He is a regular user, I created an account through yast2 user settings. How do I add this specific permission. Is it done with users and groups in yast, or do I have to edit the vsftpd text file and add settings to it? Thanks |
Does he have permission to write to that directory?
|
I assume so, it's his home directory.
|
I forgot to add he's a local user account, he could login on my machine if he were here at my computer
|
can you post the output from:
ls -l /path/to/users/home and a copy of your vsftpd config file. |
ls -l /home/kraftka

You will need to uncomment:
write_enable=YES Then restart vsftpd. |
Oh, thanks david ross. That makes sense. Thanks again
