Hello everyone,

I got up and running a FTP server for which I use to access it a generic user "FTPuser". Of course this FTPuser can access his local home folder. What I want to do is to "force" this user to access an other folder where I have some files that I want to change.
I have read the vsftpd.conf man page and discovered that by editing the vsftpd.chroot_list file this goal can be achieved. The problem is that i haven't found a relevant link to how to do it.
For my example let's suppose that FTPuser wants to access /var/www. How do I do that? (I try to play a little with web pages)

PS: I use vsftpd as ftp server

Best would be to setup the user with /var/www as home-directory and use
in vsftp.conf

Very good observation feinbein, but now I want to make available few directories for my FTPuser. Any idea? Thank you in advancce.

You could try with symlinks or bind-mounts inside your ftp-home.

Thank you very much. I solved it out with symlinks:

ln -s /path_to_dir_that_I_want_access_to /path_desired_folder

And it stays after reboot

Again Thanks
