[Pete Simpson]

Glad to help!  Again... a technote in their knowledgebase would be nice, wouldn't it?

Pete,

 

You are a lifesaver! That fixed it!

 

Ipswitch tech support mentioned the trailing slash, but it wasn't clear to me that the plain name was still needed, so I deleted it. Putting them both back in place solved the problem! I hope the bug fix for 4.01 is forthcoming soon ...

 

Many thanks!

Best Regards,

FRF

There is a bug in 4.01.

 

You need to have two entries for each directory.  They are supposed to be working on a patch.

 

You need each directory twice, once with the plain directory name and once with a trailing slash.  For example,

 

X:\FTP-DOWNLOAD

X:\FTP-DOWNLOAD\

 

Good Luck!

Pete

Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] User-Level Directory Permissions

I can't get user-level directory permissions to work. Users can't write files to directories for which they have permission. I am running WS_FTP server 4.01 on Windows 2000 (SP4), with the WS_FTP user database. I really don't want to use the Windows 2000 user account database, if possible.

 

Suggestions, ideas greatly appreciated.
