Apologies if this problem has been answered before / elsewhere. I've had a hunt around but am unable to find anything. If so please point me in the right direction.
I'm running a linux ftp server (UB10) with ssh and vsftp. I have a group of users who are chrooted to a directory (/files). Each user needs access to at least one subdirectory within - user 1 has access to /files/1, user 2 has access to /files/2, user 3 to /files/3.
I want to add a 4th user who has access to both /files/1 and /files/2 but is unable to see /files/3. I have the 4th user able to access only subdirectories 1 & 2, however, directory 3 is still visible.
Is there a way to not show /files/3 to user 4?
In actuality there are more than 4 users and more than 3 directories and each user needs access to a variety of combinations so simply moving the directory outside of the chroot and creating another group isn't the best solution.
Thanks,
Alex.
