Title: Can you use chmod over FTP for a normal user..?
Post by: Leigh Gardiner on August 14, 2002, 02:10:28 PM

I have created a user and given him ownership of a folder. He uploads cgi scripts to it but cant chmod them to 755 (executable)...is there some way to give him access to chmod stuff?

You can.

It is located in the proftp.conf file. You will need to copy the existing template (/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/proftpd.conf/) to templates-custom and then you can modify the chmod command by editing

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/proftpd.conf/05DisallowChmod


Hope this helps
