Hi Alyssa,               What type of user database are you using?  Do you see a list of your users in Ipswitch WS_FTP Server manager?  What is your top directory set to?  Do you get a 220 response back from the server?   Thanks, Julie J.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alyssa Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2004 8:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WS_FTP Forum] help   I don' t get it shouldn't the server automatically create folder with the same name as the host as well as users folder \host\users\user1 i have nothing in my iftpsvc HELP!!!!!!!!

Thanks. "Carmichael, Gary (STL)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Sarah, I am running version 5. What you describe below is how I have things set up. 1. Virtual folder called USERX pointing to Users\UserX with proper permissions for User X and Z 2. Permissions propagated to lower folders 3. User X's home folder is Users\UserX User X is able to login, but then has a directory called USERX in the list along with everything else. I was hoping there was a way to keep this from showing up in the "real" user's directory while still having it show in User Z's directory. Any thoughts?

Create a virtual folder called USERX, 2. Set permissions for userX and UserZ as desired 3. Go into FOLDERS to propogate permissions to subfolders if desired. 4. UserX and set his home directory = virtual folder called userX 5. Repeat for UserY's home folder Thanks, Sarah Mullins ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Carmichael, Gary \(STL\)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 9 Jun 2004 14:23:05 -0500 Hi all, I'm trying to work out the following configuration and can't seem to get it to where I want. Here's what I'm trying to do. All users are locked to their home directory. I have user X with home directory users\X. This is a regular user. I have user Y with home directory users\Y. This is also a regular user. I have user Z with home directory users\Z. This user needs to be able to put files in X and Y. I have set up 2 virtual directories. The first is called X pointing to users\X and the second is called Y pointing to users\Y. The permissions for both of these virtual directories are set to user Z, and I have the checkmark set to "Include in user home directory". So when Z logs in it should see X and Y, which it does. Here's my problem. Leaving things as stated above, X or Y can log in, but they are in limbo somewhere. I cannot change directories or put files or anything. To remedy this, I added permissions for X to the X virtual directory and the same for Y. They are able to log in, but they now have an extra directory (X and Y respectively) listed. Is there a way I can get X, Y and any other user logged in without the extra directory showing up? Is there a better configuration to use? I'm still trying different things, but if someone has a suggestion I would be grateful.
