kewl,

I downloaded pureftp which works pretty kewl.  It indeed cages all users
except for certain groups (i.e. my unix users group).
Thanks for the help.  I was even able to make upload directories and it also
has NoWarez support.

Only problem is I do not know how to validate the files which are uploaded,
so no one is able to download uploaded files yet. But I will try to find
some documentation on that part.  Thanks for the help.  Wish I discovered
this tool earlier.

BTW is there a webmin module for pureftp.  the gui tools do not seem to work
with kde 3.x (needs it is complaining that it wants 2.x)

Hi Marc,

You validate things uploaded to the server by chown-ing them to the owner/group of the ftp server.

i.e. if /var/ftp ( and everthing under it ) are owned by root.ftp, then when things are uploaded to say /var/ftp/incoming you move them out to the /var/ftp/pub area and do a chown on them to root.ftp. You can then chmod their permissions to 644 and all is well.
