I have tried to configure an ftp server on one of my machines, I want to all authenticated users to be able to upload files to the apache web root /var/www/html. This machine is behind a firewall/router and will not be exposed to the outside world. I want to know if someone can point me to a good tutorial on setting up one of these servers, I have read the man pages and googled for possible configurations and I still have not been successfull. I can log in as my normal user and see my home folder, but cannot upload to the web root.
hey,
what are the permissions set on /var/www/html. Does others have the write permission on this folder. Or other thing you can do is create a user with his home directory set to /var/www/html and with this user you can upload and download the files.
If you want everybody to upload the files to /var/www/html then you have to give write permissions to everybody that is 766
