virtual directory question

| Nick B 2006-01-05, 6:07 pm |
| Can someone tell me if the following is possible.
I would like to use wither ad isolated users or just isolated users. i have
no problem getting that part to work. The part i get stuck is here:
i have 8 or more parts of the ftp where i need to controll permissions. If
a user does not have access they should not see the listing. This is why i
thought of virutal directories and to assin the VD's to each user. So when
the user logged in they would only see the areas that they have access too.
Does anyone have any idea on how i can set this up?

What part are you having trouble with? NTFS permissions on the home
directories will control access, without Virtual Directories.

| By default, virtual directories are hidden from directory listing.
The workaround here is to create the same folder name under the user folder,
this will grant visibility.
however take note, if userA need to see two, you need to create two folders
under UserA folder, while UserB needs 3, then you need to again create 3. so
it could be quite a task if you have hundred of users with many folders for
them to access.

| Thank you this works perfect, I am not working with to many users at this
point, and i am sure i will end up scripting the creation of the folders
depending on group membership becouse that is how i handle NTFS permissions.
Am i write in assuming that when i give the write attribute to the Virtual
Directory they will only be able to write if the NTFS permssions allow it?

| Yes, the most restricted permissions apply if you have configure at both
location.
