How to restrict directory acces to ftp users

Hi guys,

i’m tryin to create a ftp user which can just access to a sub folders of cgi-bin in my virtual server.
I don’t want this folders can be accessed trough the web so i don’t want to put the folder in public_html and i already try to protect it by password but the user can delete the .htaccesd file.

I search in google for a long time but don’t find my answer

Thanks,

Ben

Howdy,

There isn’t currently a way to setup an FTP access user who can only write to the cgi-bin directory… at least, no automated way to do it.

You could always go into Edit Users -> Add website FTP access user, add a user that way, and then manually update the user’s home directory to be in cgi-bin rather than public_html.
