    How to serve files on an NTFS partition using an FTP

    Does anyone know how to share files on an NTFS partition as Read Only on an FTP while still having read/write permissions in Ubuntu itself? I tried mounting the partition twice but that does no work. Pls help!

    Best bet would be to load proftp. I have it installed and then you just create a regular user and point their home directory to where ever you wish.

    Here is a coparison list:

    Pro-ftpd gives you more security choices. Good Luck!
