Users can't acces their folders with Web-FTP
 

What I have done:

- Create a user called Klant1 and give them the normal rights, no Shell Acces, limited space and so on. This is not working!
- Create a user called Klant3 and give them all the rights including Shell Acces and anonymous acces. Not working too!
- Find this and this topic on this forum, but that is not exacly my problem (the first) and the second didn't solve the problem.

I have looked in my proftpd.conf, but everything is looking good in my eyes:
I have following the Perfect Setup for CentOS 5, and including some security options. (from line 10-13 in the code shown above)

I hope someone knows the problem, and thanks in advance!

[edit] And with an FTP program it doesn't work too [/edit]

Please post the output of:

netstat -tap

Hi till, here it is:
I hope you see wrong things ;)
Thanks in advance!

Your FTP appears to run and listening for connections. That's good.

What about checking your logs for errors? Run something like that and check for possible causes:

I assume that by saying "it is not working" you mean that the username/password combination appears invalid (so you cannot login at all). Check in the logs using the above command for what exactly proftpd is complaining about, and we 'll see.

Yes, thats right :) not working means, the user can't login / the username/password is not valid.

I have put that commando to see the log:
As we can see, the user Klant3 is not a user. I can say, I have use the right pass/username for the user. But the error says there IS not a user :) stange!

Must I add the users with a different methode or something?
[edit] The restart that you see in the log is done by myself, not done by ProFTP or something [/edit]

ISPConfig users begin normaly with web[ID]_. Also FTP users are case sensitive and the Users are always lowercase, so I guess your FTP is fine but you just used a non existing username. Have a look at the user settings under user & email and check how exactly the username is written.

Ok probably you have misunderstood the way ISPConfig's users work.

ISPConfig do not create users like the one you are trying to use -- that is why proftpd complains about not being existed.

Check your /etc/passwd to see your real users on your system:

ISPConfig makes no users for ProFTP when I add an user? I have to make twice accounts when I add one user for ISPConfig? (1 for ISPC and 1 for FTP useage?)

Here is the log:

No.

ISPConfig's users, are system users. That means they have both FTP access and a virtual mail account assigned to them. I.e. you create the user 'info' for the domain.com. If you pay attention the the user's creation page, you 'll see that your real user name is not just 'info' but something like 'web4_info'. That is your real username which you must use to login to your ftp server.

In you passwd file, seems like only anonymous FTP users are created (with no password). Do you really have created normal users? Check twice.

Also a useful notice: You can only have ONE user as administrator per domain (tick the administrator box when creating the user). This user is the root user for this domain -- meaning that when logging to the FTP server it will have access for everything in there. If you login as a plain user to your FTP, you will only have access to your personal folder -- not the root folder of the site, so if you upload content it will not be visible from www.domain.com but from www.domain.com/user/web4_info/web/.

Thanks, that did it. I haven't seen the whole User & Email tab with its button "New". Shame on me! :rolleyes:

Thanks I've tab the "Administrator" on and I saw what it does. When log in as that user, and then try to make a new user with the administrator box filled, it say's the administrator is already created. Thanks!

Topic resolved.
