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. There are the .files I can see. -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 24 Mar 13 14:02 .bash_logout -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 191 Mar 13 14:02 .bash_profile -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 124 Mar 13 14:02 .bashrc -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 383 Mar 13 14:02 .emacs -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 120 Mar 13 14:02 .gtkrc -rw-r--r-- 1 ftpuser ftpuser 658 Mar 13 14:02 .zshrc I created a useraccount called ftpuser as follows useradd ftpuser -s /sbin/nologin 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?
