Hi,<br />
<br />
I've got some users that have to upload data to a directory but I would like to prevent them from accessing other directories (sort of chroot to their home-dir). I've given them /usr/bin/false as shell so that they cannot login but they still have &quot;full&quot; access via ftp.<br />
I'm using WU-FTPd on Solaris 2.6<br />

Hi,

I've got some users that have to upload data to a directory but I would like to prevent them from accessing other directories (sort of chroot to their home-dir). I've given them /usr/bin/false as shell so that they cannot login but they still have "full" access via ftp.
I'm using WU-FTPd on Solaris 2.6

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
