RE: [WS_FTP Forum] WS_FTP V5 Behaivor Change Virtual Folders -Bug? [T2004061102R8]

[support]

Hi,               Thank you for the information.  This has been logged as an issue to be addressed by the R&D department.  It was actually changed due to requests that we had in previous versions.  Since the release of version 5.0, we have had many users speak out against this change.  I would like to be sure that you understand that “as a workaround” your users can manually change to the directory and they will still have Write and Delete permission.  To allow the users to see the folder from their home directory, you will have to add LIST permissions.   Thank you, Julie J.

[T2004061102R8Z2963504]   Hi,   I have noticed a major behavior change in the way WS_FTP Server V5 deals with Virtual Folders that are flagged to "Include in user home folder listing". In the past a folder could be set to show in the home folder, Allow Writes, and Allow Deletes but not allow the user to List Contents by removing the "List" right. In the new version the folder will not show in the home folder listing even when the "Include in user home folder listing" option is selected unless the user has "List" rights. This "Bug" is causing some major problems for me as I had several folders on several servers that I did not want users to be able to "List" but they must be able to "Write" files into this folder.  Lorne -In Beer there is Strength... -In Wine there is Wisdom... -In Water there is BACTERIA!!!     Old German Proverb
