I've Googled and cant find how to do this on puppy, hope someone can help me...
I want to use pure-ftpd for non anonymous file transfer on my embedded PC, I have created user "ftp_user" with a home directory in /mnt/home/ftp_user (the CF card). The user is a member of group file_ops.
Code: Select all
#id ftp_user
uid=1004(ftp_user) gid=1004(1004) groups=1004(1004),1000(file_ops)
#
currently I launch the daemon with the command
Code: Select all
pure-ftpd -A &
Code: Select all
# cd /mnt/home/ftp_user
# ls -l
total 12
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7499 2011-05-21 18:43 test_file
I tried the following but get the error
Code: Select all
su -c '/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd -A' - ftp_user
Unable to start a standalone server: Permission denied
Thanks for reading this far!
