How to set an upload directory ?
This how to explains how to set up a directory where users will be able to
upload some files.
This how to assumes that you have already created an account and added the
directory to share.
- Open the user settings
dialog.
- Select the account you want to modify.
- Click the "File Access Rights" button.
- We are in the browser window.
Here is now the interesting stuff.
- Create a upload directory using the Explorer.
- Return to CesarFTP Browser window. Browse in the left upper pane till you
find the directory you have created.
- Drag and drop it in one of the two bottom panes.
- Be sure that you have selected it.
- Uncheck the "Inherit" check box. Other boxes are now active.
- Uncheck read ( this will prevent people from grabbing files from this directory
)
- Check write, and at your discretion check append ( this allows resuming
). Do not check delete: users may intentionally delete some of the uploaded
files.
- You may check "Make": this will allow users to create directories.
- Close the browser window. Click OK to save and exit the user settings dialog.
- You can now check if everything works fine.
