FTP User Specific Directories

Virtualmin
1

Good day,
I’ve been searching for this all evening and haven’t found anything relevant, the only things I’ve found are restricting ftp users to their home directory or the public_html directory. What I am looking for is being able to create multiple ftp accounts that have access to different directories. IE:

User1 gets access to /home/virtuaminuser/public_html/user1directory
User2 gets access to /home/virtuaminuser/homes/User2
User3 gets access to /home/virtualminuser/public_html/user3directory

Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks

Howdy,

If you wish to create a user in $HOME/homes/, you can do that in Edit Users -> Add a user to this server, and adding a new FTP user there.

To create a user in $HOME/public_html, you cna do that in Edit Users -> Add a website FTP access user.

To lock those users into those directories, you could then setup FTP Directory Restrictions, as described here:
