thank you for your reponse......Your kidding me ...the stock ftpd that comes with FBSD 4.8 is so different that it no longer supports chroot ??? Are we expected to to deinstall the package and installl some other port to just do chroot ? Are there any other ftp servers that can be used besides lukemftpd other than wu-ftpd...just to keep my options open. what about proftpd ?? thank you Brent > On Wed, Apr 23, 2003 at 10:42:30AM -0400, Brent Bailey wrote: >> Hello, >> Im using FBSD 4.8 and im trying to chroot stock ftpd ....something >> that i have done on many other prior versions of FBSD by doing: >> 1.
