-
- My company has a need to provide ftp service to a customer in order to
- exchange files with them.
-
- In my reading of the manual, it indicates that an anonymous user is
- limited to the directory structure /users/ftp, and that the user is
- chrooted such that that directory appears to be the root directory.
-
- I'd like to be able to do this for our customer so that they can only
- access the files and directories that we wish them to have access to.
-
- Anonymous ftp is not a suitable solution as we do not want just anyone
- to have access to these files.
-
- Is there a way to accomplish this? Perhaps a customized version of the ftp
- daemon?
