    Another VSFTPD problem

    Ok, so I finally get the FTP server up and running but there are two issues.

    1. When I connect (locally or via internet), it shows me my whole home folder. What I want is JUST the web server folder.

    2. Even though it lets me into the server, I only have read access.
    I looked all through the vsftpd.conf and can't seem to find any thing where that's set.

    So, how do I change the folder and get write access?

    **Update**
    Ok so somehow I missed the line.
    Code:
    #write_enable=YES
    I uncommented that and now I have write access....
    So how do I limit it to just the webroot folder.... for any/everyone all at once?
    ~Ok, limiting access with local_root=foldername is ok, but I can still see the other directories

    Because the Laptop won't accept any upgrade...
