My company is looking at a replacement for our current ftp server
running on redhat.
We are considering an Xserve with an attached Xraid. We have some
specific permissions needs and I would like some feed back on A. Is this
scenario possible. And B. Has anyone out there done something like this
and would they be willing to discuss configuration issues and
recommendations, i.e. what ftp server software should I utilize? The
built in FTP server service, or something like cuteftp? How difficult
is it to setup the permissions on such a large number of folders for
about 1000 to 1200 users? Being an admitted UNIX neophyte any
assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the configuration that we need to be able to set up:
We have to create 1000 root level ftp folders that authenticated and
anonymous users can view list and read.
Inside of each of those folders I need to create 3 folders (inbox,
outbox and web)
For the three folders there are two authenticated users and they need to
have full control of the contents of those folders.
Anonymous users need the following access:
Inbox: no read, no list, write.
Outbox: read, list, no write.
Web: read, list, no write.
If anyone out there has set up a similar setup I would really appreciate
any feedback that you can give me. I have setup a streaming server on a
dual Xserve G5, and have a good amount of Mac knowledge but the UNIX
underpinnings I am admittedly weak on. We have a 3rd party company
admining our current box but would like to bring it in house if possible
and the Mac solution seems the most likely method to be able to do that.
Thank you,
