Title: SOLUTION - Allowing write access to the ibays.
Post by: Glen Greig on September 24, 2003, 10:25:21 AM

I've seen this question around a bit, allowing people to login to the ibays using the ibay name and password as the ftp un and password.

I'm too stuffed to give a step by step guide here, so i'll just give a quick solution..

In the file /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/proftpd.conf/60AnonymousIBay  right down the bottom there is a line :
"$OUT .= "                      DenyAll\n";
this line is in the "limit WRITE" section, which is in the "Directory" section, which is in the "Anonymous /home/e-smith/files/ibays/$key/files" section.

change the Deny part to Allow and people will have write access..
