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
# Example config file /etc/vsftpd.conf
#
# The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file
# loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable.
# Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults.
#
# If you do not change anything here you will have a minimum setup for an
# anonymus FTP server.
#
# READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive list of vsftpd options.
# Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a full idea of vsftpd's
# capabilities.
# General Settings
#
# Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command.
#
#write_enable=YES
#
# Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they
# go into a certain directory.
#
dirmessage_enable=YES
#
# It is recommended that you define on your system a unique user which the
# ftp server can use as a totally isolated and unprivileged user.
#
#nopriv_user=ftpsecure
#
# You may fully customise the login banner string:
#
#ftpd_banner="Welcome to FOOBAR FTP service."
#
# You may activate th
"-R" option to the builtin ls. This is disabled by
# default to avoid remote users being able to cause excessive I/O on large
# sites. However, some broken FTP clients such as "ncftp" and "mirror" assume
# the presence of the "-R" option, so there is a strong case for enabling it.
#
#ls_recurse_enable=YES
#
# You may specify a file of disallowed anonymous e-mail addresses. Apparently
# useful for combatting certain DoS attacks.

#deny_email_enable=YES

#banned_email_file=/etc/vsftpd.banned_emails

# If enabled, all user and group information in

#
# Uncomment to put local users in a chroot() jail in their home directory
# after login.
#
chroot_local_user=YES
#
# You may specify an explicit list of local users to chroot() to their home
# directory. If chroot_local_user is YES, then this list becomes a list of
# users to NOT chroot().

# Allow anonymous FTP?

anonymous_enable=YES
#
# Anonymous users will only
anon_world_readable_only=YES
#
# Uncomment this to allow the anonymous FTP user to upload files. This only
