I'm having some problems creating the config file for my proftpd service.
Would someone be nice enough to help out?

Details for my server:

Server name: ftp.myftp.ca
FTP ports: 21 & 2121
Passive ports: 44000-44099
Server type: inetd
AuthUsers file: /etc/proftpd/ftpd.passwd
AuthGroup file: /etc/proftpd/ftpd.group

ftp root directory is at /srv/ftp/root.
An upload directory is located at /srv/ftp/root/uploads.
private user directories are at /srv/ftp/private. Permissions are 600 on the
users directory.
I have created symlinks from the users private directories to the
/srv/ftp/root directory.

There is no anonymous access to this server

Groups are:
ftpadmins - Full read/write access to all ftp directories
ftpdownloaders - Read access to root and subdirectories. Full access to
/srv/ftp/private/username. No access anything else under /srv/ftp/private
ftpuploaders - Read access to root and subdirectories. Write access to
uploads. Full access to /srv/ftp/private/username. No access anything else
under /srv/ftp/private

When a user lists files I do NOT want them to see any files or folders that
they do not have permission to access. (This is really what I'm having
trouble with)

I'm having similar problems. I just recently flashed my Linksys WRT350N
with dd-wrt.v24_mega_generic. Freakin awesome!:biggrin: So I hooked up
an external 120gb WD drive (will expand later, just a temp) and set up
my FTP server (proftpd). That's working well also, but I'm quite new to
dd-wrt and most linux programs in general so I'm having a hell of a time
with the scripting:mad:. I have 2 username/passwords set up and planning
on adding a couple more but I can't for the life of me figure out how to
give each user different privilages. My plan is to give everyone on my
network, which right now is only 5 or 6, their own folder for storing or
backing up whatever they wish while also hosting some public files for
everyone to access but without others being able to snoop around in
stuff that isn't theirs or public. I have all the folders made (like
that's hard lol) but can't figure out how to link privilages to them.
I've read everything I can find so far but with no luck (either nobody's
covered it yet or I'm just that slow:redface:). So if anyone can help me
out I'd greatly apreciate it. Thanks in advance!

priviledges are mostly linkked to which groups you are a member of,

adduser is a command to grant membership, or you can edit /etc/groups
directly.
