Re: [WS_FTP Forum] problems with user permissions

[Cameron Quinn Lauseng]

Ignore this,  I found it is a problem with a new firewall that was put in place.  The symptom appears to be a permissions problem, but it is a firewall rule.  The current rule allows ftp ports, but it doesn't work.  When I change the rule to allow all services to the server, the user can then upload files successfully.  It probably has to do with active or passive mode on the ftp client. ----- Original Message ----- From: Cameron Quinn Lauseng To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 10:30 AM Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] problems with user permissions I've had much difficulty with user permissions.  I'm using WS FTP Server 3.14 (licensed user, just registered in April), and using WS FTP Server user database.  Recently I had to move IPs of the servers, requiring me to delete the hosts, and re-add them, without removing the user folders.  After re-adding the users, some of them cannot upload, they get permission denied error, no matter what I do.  I have deleted the users, and their folders, and re-created the user.  When they login, their user folder is created by the server, and they are logged into it, but they still cannot upload.  I even made the user a host administrator and system administrator.   Please help.  Would it be wiser to switch to using NT permissions?  I was hoping I didn't have to do this.  I would like to keep all the FTP administration in one place.   Thanks,   Cameron Lauseng Destination Rewards, Inc.
