I am using Sco Unix ( version 2.1.2- A very old version) & the user want to ftp files to this server from a windows 2000 PC.
I need to create a login user in Unix system to have only FTP access to upload files in a purticular directory & with read & write permissions in that directory only. The user should not be able to change directories, run any unix system level commands..

How the above is possible?? I tried using restricted shell "rksh", but it blocks ftp also

please reply at the earliest
 
vsunh,

Can you please stop spamming the forums with your questions. If someone knows an answer they will answer it the first time.

You may have to obtain wu-ftpd or ProFTPD or similar to have better control over what the user has access to. Whether they are available for that version of SCO I do not know.

Annihilannic.
