Sorry I sent my last email with the wrong subject line. I found the problem. Pure FTPD puts all users into a chroot group and cages them into their home folder.

I have loaded a server with Red Hat 8.0. I installed Pure-FTPD. Using WSFTP client I login and am in my home folder. The user I am using is in the adm and root groups. I cannot navigate out of the home folder. I specify which folder I want to login into in WSFTP and it still drops me in my home folder. I created a test folder under the root directory and gave myself all permissions and set WSFTP to put me there and I end up in my home folder. I can't type in the path in WSFTP and get any where. WSFTP says the folder does not exist. I tried var and etc and it says folders do not exist. How do I set this up so I can move up from my home folder and get to other folders? What am I doing wrong?
