VSFTPD and .htaccess problem
 

Hi all!

Have a Linux VPS running VSFTPD. Whenever I upload a .htaccess file, it disappears. This is obviously because Force_dot_files = NO.

However, the .htaccess file when I log in as root is still there but doesn't work, the user can still upload any file that isn't the following:

.mp3 / .wav / .jpg / .png / .gif

Here is my .htaccess file, am I doing something wrong?

order allow,deny
<Files ~ "\.(mp3|wav|jpg|png|gif)$">
allow from all
</Files>

Hi and welcome to LQ,

Perhaps apache does not read .htaccess files. To enable reading them, you need to add
To check if it reads .htaccess, put some gibberish in it and see if you get a 500 error.

Cheers
