Post by: Audriusv on October 18, 2006, 01:03:03 PM

Hi,

In one srver I would like to not allow user to use e-mail part of server only ftp access. How can I do that in simple way?

Thank you.

The way I would probably do that is to shut down all the services you don't require.

Maybe load on SME7admin and that way you can see the services and shut down the ones you don't require.

Someone else might have a better sugestion.

Thank you Tib. But I would like to have other users be able to send e-mail. I want to restrict mail only for some users, not all.
I am thinking about groups to which users belongs... maybe there I can find answer for my problem...

But I have hoped that it is simple question and someone much smarter than me can answer that... :-)

Thank you anyway...

You can just use the "useradd" command so that you won't have a full SME user.

# man useradd
for more info.

You can change the "home" directory of your user so that,
with a ftp connexion, he arrives directly to the ~/ibay/html
you need (I guess it is what you want).
