SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.6.1 & VSFTP issue

[arktex54]

Anytime I apply chmod g+w to a user directory is when the sftp-server denies access. I cannot get my mind around why it denies access to SFTP when you give something a privilege; it should be the exact opposite - only deny when you take away privileges.

It's not safe so it stops you.

SELinux is already disabled, so what prevents me from doing it? It appears I need it on that ONE user directory.

Did you try my other suggestion yet?

[arktex54]

I did try the other suggestion [-d]. Thank you for that. However, it failed.

I have even done the below and also tried -m 700,750,770,777 ... not even 777 will let me create a file.

Code: Select all

Subsystem sftp internal-sftp
Match Group sftpgroup
        ChrootDirectory /ftproot/users/%u
        ForceCommand internal-sftp -m 770
        X11Forwarding no
        AllowTcpForwarding no
