readonly ftp account with proftpd

[swinnenb]

How can I setup a readonly account with proftpd?
Can I add information in a directory like in a . file?
I do not want to change user or group rights I want to specify deny and allow per user on specific directories.
What files to look at or how to configure this?

I'm running different vhosts on my machine.

Many thanks for your help

Thnx for that. You mean using <Directory> in combination with <LIMIT> in these files?

Ok, that can only be modified by root or admin of the server.
But can a user define settings in their own directories?

Or maybe as a per domain or per user file (that can be included)???

Any advise is welcome here.

You can certainly do that, but you'd have to create a plugin if you want your users to be able to do it.
