Configure user vsftpd in a specific directory

Are you using FTP or SFTP? As far as I know, vsftpd does not support SFTP.

@Woet I am a novice, do not know what I’m doing. What do I need at the moment is: access the FTP or SFTP with the user created. As you would with handles sshd SFTP?

@redraenhys Thank you, I will perform this procedure when I was at home.

You could bind the user folder to the /html. 1. To keep it tidy create a folder in the user’s folder: mkdir -p /home/{user}/www/html where {user} should be changed to the user name. Also create the html folder in /var/www if it doesn’t exist yet.

2. Then to mount it: mount --bind /var/www/html /home/{user}/www/html

You’re basically binding these folders, as the docs states: “–bind Remount a subtree somewhere else (so that its contents are available in both places)”

3. You’ll still need to make it permanent, so: sh -c 'echo "/var/www/html /home/{user}/www/html none defaults,bind 0 0" >> /etc/fstab'

which is the equivalent to add the bind command to the /etc/fstab, so it’s executed every time your system boots.
