The system has a test session now with a Cisco 3750 equipment.
On the OpenBGPD machine I have setup the Cisco neighbo

I have the same four lines in rc.conf, but that is
because I installed postfix.
If you want to disable it completely, you'd use
sendmail_enable="NONE", but you wouldn't be able

Hi Matt!
If you are talking about givin FTP access only, then
the easiest way to do it is just adding the user to the file
/etc/ftpchroot
and thats all!!
if the file does not exist. then create it.
add to /etc/ftpchroot all users that you want them to ftp but never see

Well...
If there was an easy way to restrict users to their home directories using

I don't really feel like installing an FTP server just so users can
connect to my server when they are already used to using sftp-server.
Is there anyway?
