I am also running centOS. I would like to know how to setup a new SFTP user with access to only one directory of my server. However, FMCB’s answer to this question is confusing to me. I have never used centOS nor any other server OS. So I have NO idea how to “create a group” nor “assign a user to a group”. I’m sorry but can anyone put this in layman’s terms or direct me to some detail instructions? I’ve only been using DO for a couple days and this is all very new to me.
