I am a newbie to the linux world and would like to set up Linux Mandrake 7.02 as an FTP server. I would like to allow anonymous and user logins.
I had the built in FTP server running last night but it would not allow for the anonymous logins and when I logged in as a user it would give me access to everything (including root). What I would like is to have a directory with a few subdirectories that can be accessed via FTP with the rest of my partitions being secure. I can set aside an entire partition if necessary. (If I set aside a partition do I use /home /user /temp?) I wouldn't mind even setting up a mirror for the .iso for Linux-Mandrake if I can get it running securely.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
