Hi,

I installed mandriva with ftp server and apache, but how can i edit that other people can access eg. /files/ folder too? And how can i configure ProFTPd accounts and stuff?

Cheers, Saxu

Code:

Alias /foo/ "/var/www/htdocs/foo/"

For more, look at the apache manual: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod...ias.html#alias

ProFTPd normally uses system accounts. See http://proftpd.org/docs/directives/l...hUserFile.html for how to change this.

It depends on your system...

For apache:
/etc/
/etc/apache/
/etc/apache2/
/etc/advx/
/etc/httpd/
The file name is httpd.conf, advx.conf, apache.conf or apache2.conf

For proftpd:
/etc/
/etc/proftpd/
The file name is proftpd.conf
