Re: rights to subfolders only

I think I had it wrong anyways.

If I take my newly created user with no group memberships and connect
via FTP about 6 folders are visable dspite teh fact that I granted no
file system acess and no group memberships. How can I figure out
where these rights were granted.

If I want to do this what would be the optimal way to do it.

Thanks,
Paul

if you using IIS FTP 6 then you can try the user isolation folder feature.
else - you can use virtual directory for the physical folder mapping. by
design vdir is hidden from dir listing.

so you would set
ftproot -> d:\dummy
userVdir -> d:\users\folderXXX

but in this case, when user logged in, they see nothing from dir listing and
have to navigate to the folder 'bindly'

I am trying to grant an ftp user access to 3 folders in a folder
containing about 30 folders. I have the ftp site root folder to be
the parent folder of these 3 folders. I granted rights to the 3
subfolders and at the parent folder (FTP root) I added the user, went
to advanced permissions and basically gave it read permissions but
only to "this folder only".

It works ok but the ftp user can still see the 30 or so other folders
she doesn't have access to. She can't go into them but she can still
see them.

Is there a way to make it so she can only see the 3 folders she has
access to?

Thanks,
Paul
