29.2 FTP General Settings
In the frame of the dialog you can set the which is shown after connecting to the FTP server.
If you check the option, all local
users will be placed in a chroot jail in their home directory after
login. This option has security implications, especially if the users
have upload permission or shell access, so be careful enabling this
option.
If you check the option, all FTP
requests and responses are logged
.
You can limit permissions of files created by anonymous and/or
authenticated users with umask. The bits that are set in the umask
identify permissions that are always to be disabled for newly created
files. Set the file creation mask for anonymous users in and the file creation mask for authenticated
users in . The masks
should be entered as octal numbers with a leading zero.
In the frame set the directories used
for anonymous and authorized users. The default FTP directory for
anonymous users is /srv/ftp. Note that vsftpd does
not allow this directory to be writable for all users. The subdirectory
upload with write permissions for anonymous users is
created instead.
NOTE:
The pure-ftpd server allows the FTP directory for anonymous users to be
writable. Make sure you removed the write permissions in the directory
that was used with pure-ftpd before switching back to the vsftpd server.
