Hello,

I'm trying to restrict an ftp user to a particular directory. I've written an ftpchroot file, as follows:

Username  /var/spool/ftp/ ./Username/photos


After I write the file and restart inetd, I am not able to login to ftp with this user account at all. I have RTFM and evidently don't get

If username only (no path) in ftpchroot, enter the path you want the user chrooted to in /etc/passwd. What happens?

If you need shell home and ftp home to be different you need the path in ftpchroot.

passwd(5) and ftpchroot(5).

What to the logs say? Try to use -d with ftpd.
