Limit FTP access to a certain group?
« on: October 07, 2011, 11:28:55 am »
Hi!

I'm playing around with Zentyal since I'm thinking of migrating to it on my homeserver (to lazy to fight with OpenLDAP on my own). My question now is if it's possible to limit FTP access to a certain (LDAP) group?

Basically I want to assign persmissions using groups, users in the "web" group gets access to a webinterface, users in the "samba" group gets access to the fileshares, users in the "ftp" group gets ftp access, etc.

Is this possible with Zentyal and vsftpd? (Manual labor is not an issue. Solutions requiring manual editing of config files is ok as long as it doesn't break every time you sneeze.)

http://vsftpd.beasts.org/vsftpd_conf.html and have a look at the userlist_enable option. You can configure that using custom templates.
