Post by: vlinux1 on May 24, 2010, 06:39:07 AM

Hi Gaurav & Ricky,


I have configured Vsftpd server in RHEL-4 and it's working. I want to restrict copy option for all users only they can paste.

Is it possible please let me know.

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for reply.
User can only put the files in that DIR.








Thanks
Vijay

Hmm you can make a group and add the users list in that group and make the group writable to that dir.

Lets say you want the following users to put on dir "mydir"
user1,user2

make group using  " groupadd putgrp"
usermod -G putgrp user1
usermod -G putgrp user2

and then you can give the "w" permissions  to group for that dir, Please make sure that the dir is owned by that group

Hope that helps

Or if you want to do for all the users not for specific ones then you can try the solution which "getviswa" suggested
