There has been a change in the syntax of the "upload" keyword in the ftpaccess file. OLD syntax: upload NEW syntax: upload The argument is the ftp hierarchy that the upload command now applies to. This allows for the "upload" keyword to be used by guest and anonymous users, instead of just anonymous. To migrate your < 2.1A ftpaccess to 2.1B, just add the home directory of the ftp account to each upload line. For example: ftp:*:10000:31:FTP user:/home/ftp:/bin/true [2.1A ftpaccess] upload * yes upload /bin/* no upload /etc/* no upload /incoming* yes bryan onc 0644 nodirs [2.1B ftpaccess] upload /home/ftp * yes upload /home/ftp /bin/* no upload /home/ftp /etc/* no upload /home/ftp /incoming* yes bryan onc 0644 nodirs
