An Example FTP Server
|
Fundamentally, the goal is to encourage the exchange of information yet insure that certain files are not modified. Users need the ability to read and write from a shared location and also have an area where only they can save and modify files. Separate FTP accounts are required to accomplish this.
We have an example FTP Server that uses two accounts: eg1 and eg2. Each account has its own unique home directory, separate from the primary account. However, each account has a unix link file that points to the proj1 directory in the primary account directory structure. In the proj1 directory is a subdirectory for each user where they can save and modify files. Users can read from other users' directories but may not make changes. If desired, directories could be created where all users could save and modify files.
