I am now running vsftp on CENTOS 4.4. Still on my BOX. not still ready for production environment. I want to know one more thing.
When I login to my ftp server from ftp client programme called Smart FTP that was installed on a windows Xp machine, I can see . DOT files under that directory.
Then traditional . files will be created there. But I do not want to those .files to display, When users login from their ftp clients.
How can I solve this?
Read the vsftpd.conf man page, search it for 'deny_file' and 'hide_file'.
$ man vsftpd.conf Hit '/' to go in to the Vi-like search mode in 'less' Type 'deny_file' without the single quotes Hit [ENTER] 'n' takes you to the next match, 'N' to the previous.
Repeat for 'hide_file'.
Will.
