Hi Sobwoofer,
There are a few things to know about files permissions managed throught pure-ftpd service.
pure-pw mkdb
, you can worry about the directories rights.The Chmod directive is controlled by UNIX rights. So, if you want FTP users to be able to interact with folders (dir1,dir2,dir3) in the root of your FTP server (/mnt/ftp), then they will have to belong at least to the “ftpgroup”, with writing rights for the ftpgroup group :
If your pure-ftp service is configured to allow Chmod directives, and configured to chroot ftpusers directly in your FTP root, then you should not encounter that problem any more.
Hope this could help,
Regards,
