Removing existing ftpd
- Thread starter Spinkick
- Start date
I do very little with ftp but I think you just need to remove it's entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file and replace it with an entry for your new program. If your running it as a daemon instead of through inetd, you can just remove the startup script from /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/ and any of the other run level directories under rc.d.
I believe that should do what you need.
Good luck,
GJ

Hmm... Is there any way to jail users to their directory by configuring some existing files? I don't want to have to learn a new program... I am running FreeBSD...
I want users to think they are in their own file systems and prevent them from getting higher in the directory tree.

Yes you can jail a use to his/her root folder
cat /etc/passwd |grep user1
uesr1:x:103:1::/home/user1/./:/bin/false
placing the chroot syntax /./ at the end of the users users directory will "jail" that user. Basically they can not go any higher in the filesystem.
adding /bin/false keeps thme from logging in via telnet
