Hello,

I'm currently using proftpd and I am trying to set it up so that each person from my company can have a seperate login and folder. I would like to set it so when each user logs in it takes them to their own seperate folder and they are locked into that folder.

So if MikeD logs in, he is thrown into the folder "MikeD" and is locked there, but has write/read/overwrite permissions in his folder.

Does anyone know how to setup the proftpd.conf file to allow such an enviroment?

I have this setup using Pure-ftpd. It was pretty easy to setup and there are a few good How-to's on this forum that will walk you through it.

That is a basic private user setup. The proftpd documentation is very clear on your setup. Use localusers and defaultroot ~ each person into their own home dir.
