Hiya

So far I've never set up a ftp server on my own (well, at least not on linux). As I'm now away from M$ I still need to setup a ftp server which does the following:

1.) I would like to setup a group permission containing a folder to which everybody in the group has read access e.g. /home/ftp/

2.) Each member will have an exchange folder where they also can upload stuff to e.g. /home/exchange/USER

3.) Certain groups should have additional folders for download e.g. /home/special/

4.) I would like to set a global download limit. E.g. all users connected may not download at a rate faster than xxx kbit

What ftp software can I do that on linux and how to set it up best?

On windows I used WarFTP Daemon (it could do all the above except for the global download rate).

Thx for the feedback :)

I think you'll have to tweak this setup: http://www.howtoforge.com/pureftpd_mysql_virtual_hosting
At least Pure-FTPd supports bandwidth limiting. :)
