I should make clear one other thing:
this is not just access to a particular drive. This is access to the whole
computer. i mean, all drives are fully accessible if they look in the
volumes directory.

some things to do/check. if you are logged into an admin account, use a
non
admin account and boot into it. Check the readwrite status on your drive
and folders. if it is set to everyone can read and write, ftp will leave
you wide open.

Subject: ftp server issues still not resolved
I'm still having the same issue with my ftp server built into the o s.
When
users try logging in, and btw, they are not! administrators, they see
their
entire home dir sure, but, they see more than that so... everything. I
mean, they are getting read/write to the root. they could practicly wipe
the whole system, not just my Tiger volume, but all of them, being they
can
get to the volumes folder. Heck, they can see /dev, /etc/ all of that is
there.
why in the heavens is this. I thought if they logged in with their
account
details, they'd be taken into their homedir and no further up.
I understand I may not be getting many responses on this as no one really
knows, but can someone at least try to help me? I'd rather get possibly
far
fetched answers, than to get none as it seems I am.
Chris.
