I would like to know if directadmin could add an FTP user for sudomain. Let say the user is rix and domain is rix.com

login rix in ftp will go to /home/rix/domains/rix.com/

how bout iam.rix.com? i want to create login iam that logged to /home/rix/domains/rix.com/private_html/iam/

is there a way ?
 
Well...theres i could add the user as domain but it has access to public_html, private_html, mail, domains, and backup directories.

i would want to give other ppl the access to other folder then private_html/iam

The other solution is to edit the proftpd setting manually, but it might cause conflict with the cpanel script or if i have alot customers demand the same thing, that would be a pain

If you're running cpanel then why ask at the direct admin forums?

But you want a user to be able to access more directories than just their subdomain without granting them access to the whole domain? Right?
 
im sorry, the word cpanel i stated was refering to control panel. In this case its direct admin control panel.
 
Hello,

Create an ftp account as a type "User:"
Ftp account with the root directory as the users name in the public_html directory

This will chroot the ftp account to ....../public_html/username, which is where the subdomain is pointed to.
