I'm using the VSFTP Daemon to get an FTP server going on on an Ubuntu machine.
Uploading files and downloading works from my windows laptop using the command prompt.. Basically I just created a new account called "ftpuser" and I log in using that. When I upload files, they end up in /home/ftpuser obviously, however I can not view them with my main account.
I checked and this is because when I upload a file, the only thing that's enabled are read and write lines for the original user (which would be "ftpuser"). I don't know why this happens. I've looked around but I'm stumped.
Also I don't know how to use anonymous logins. I've edited out the commenting in the config file but it doesn't seem to help, my access is still denied and users, groups and others have full rights on the /home/ftp dir (which as I understand it would be the one used by anonymous users)..
Anyone wiling to lend a hand here?
