Hi,

I have installed and set up PureFTPd according to the instructions (I think) but I can't seem to jail my users to their home folders.

The server starts on bootup and my /private/etc/xinetd.d/ftp file looks like this:

service ftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd
server_args = -A -E -lpam --trustedgid 20 --maxclientsperip 1 --altlog stats:/var/log/pureftpd.log --antiwarez --minuid 1 --customerproof -E -c 5 -C 1 -I 5 &
groups = yes
flags = REUSE
}

The --trustedgid 20 flag should jail anyone who isn't in 'staff' group but it doesn't.

What have I done wrong?

gatorparrotts?

Simon
