I'm fairly sure that's wrong. The commands to make the directory and set the permissions are things that you only need to do once - it isn't part of the FTP server config. Config files are generaly parsed by the program they are for so you can't put arbitrary commands in them - only what the program understands. Since the server isn't working with that it is likely to be getting upset by things it doesn't understand in the config file. There is probably more clues about this in the vsftpd log file (probably in /var/log/) You want to run the mkdir and chmod commands in a terminal (or do the equivalent with a GUI file manager). ________________________________________________________ Robert McWilliam [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ormiret.com I can only please one person per day.
