I'm trying to setup a user in centos that can read/write/delete/etc files in the /var/www/html directory. With some help here I got the user able to log on and view files, but now they cannot upload/delete etc.
I created a user 'ftpuser' with a UID/GID of 500, a valid shell /bin/sh and a home directory of /var/www/
I changed the owner of /var/www/html to ftpuser.ftpuser [& tried 0777ing it as well]
That user should be able to read/write/del files in the /var/www/html/ directory.
here is the proftpd config:
ServerName "ProFTPD server"
ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."
ServerAdmin root@localhost
ServerType standalone
DefaultServer on
VRootEngine on
#DefaultRoot ~ !adm
DefaultRoot /var/www/
VRootAlias /etc/security/pam_env.conf etc/security/pam_env.conf
AuthPAMConfig proftpd
AuthOrder mod_auth_pam.c* mod_auth_unix.c
#PersistentPasswd off
UseReverseDNS off
User nobody
Group nobody
MaxInstances 20
UseSendfile off
LogFormat default "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b"
LogFormat auth "%v [%P] %h %t \"%r\" %s"
# Global Config - config common to Server Config and all virtual hosts
# See: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/Vhost.html

<Directory /var/www>

I don't know why this won't work. Does anyone see what I am doing wrong?
