    What's happen if you perform the same attempt after entering in terminal :
    Code:
    umask 022
    Is the new folder still without any permissions ?

    Could you attach you proftpd.conf file in the next post, i'd like to see it because it sounds like a syntax error.

    Try to jump a line and make the limit login part look like that :
    Code:
    <Limit LOGIN>
     AllowUser John
     AllowUser chuck
     DenyALL
    </Limit>
    Except that, it looks good (i mean no syntax error)

    Ok, I was able to setup proftpd. I'm able to connect to my download, upload directory. But, how can I get access to my /var/www directories?

    I host a site on my server, and the path is in the /var/www. What do I have to add in the proftpd.conf in order to be able to upload my files?

    Thanks

    Just mount your /var/www directory in the upload directory :
    Code:
    sudo mount -o bind /var/www /home/FTP-shared/upload

    ok, thank you.

    But if I mount that folder, then all my users are going to have access to it, right? I setup a second user, and I logged in and I saw that he has access to the same /var/www as my own user.
