It seems that users > can still go anywhere within the file system even when their username > is in this file.... How do you define 'can still go anywhere'? Here's a test I did a few moments ago without having a ftpchroot file: 1 hades % cat /etc/ftpchroot 2 cat: /etc/ftpchroot: No such file or directory 3 hades % ftp localhost 4 Connected to hades. 5 220 hades.hell.gr FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready. 6 Name (localhost:charon): charon 7 331 Password required for charon. 8 Password: ******** 9 230 User charon logged in. 10 Remote system type is UNIX. 11 Using binary mode to transfer files. 12 ftp> pwd 13 257 "/home/charon" is current directory. 14 ftp> bye 15 221 Goodbye. In line 2 you can see that there is no ftpchroot file. In line 13 the home directory of `charon' is printed as "/home/charon", which is the real home directory of `charon' on this machine. Now let's try with an `ftpchroot' file in place. 1 hades % cat /etc/ftpchroot 2 charon 3 hades % ftp hades 4 Connected to hades. 5 220 hades.hell.gr FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready. 6 Name (hades:charon): charon 7 331 Password required for charon. 8 Password: 9 230 User charon logged in, access restrictions apply. 10 Remote system type is UNIX. 11 Using binary mode to transfer files. 12 ftp> pwd 13 257 "/" is current directory. 14 ftp> bye 15 221 Goodbye. Note the different output in lines 1-3 and line 14. -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
