Setting up remote authenticated FTP access to /var/www/ on Fedora 5.0
Not knowing too much about Linux I have set up a web server on Fedora 5.0., That was easy.
I need to upload/download/delete the web content with ftp remotely with a single username/password. (just like every commercial web hosting service) I know it's not secure and their are better options, but that's OK.
Question 1 - - - After starting vsftp, read access to a "pub" folder is enabled by default, but I can't even find "pub" in the file system. What is the file system path to "pub" ?
Question 2 - - -How to I get the ftp server to point to /var/www/ ? Paths are not part of the vsftpd.conf setup file
