Re: restricting user in HOME using ProFTP



Quoth Marko Cehaja,

Try something like the following in /etc/proftpd.conf

# Put all except admin users in a chroot jail
DefaultRoot ~ !adm

Then when user ftp in, their home directory will be set as their root
directory (ie., /) and they will not be able to change out of their home
directory.
