dennismonsewicz Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I am not 100% sure if this is the write forum or not but here goes... I have setup my Macbook with a virtual ubuntu distro using VmWare and setup Apache, PHP and the mysql server. Is there anyway to allow Ftp'ing into this virtual box?

dennismonsewicz Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 I got it working! I installed and setup proftpd and everything works smoothly! Now to another question... How do I set to where when a user logins they only see their directory? Instead of the main FTP directory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvmht Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 You're looking for the DefaultRoot directive that you need to use in the proftpd.conf file. Check out the details at http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/config_ref_DefaultRoot.html, but pretty much you just need to add this line to your proftpd.conf file and restart the service: DefaultRoot ~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
