    Users can only read in ftp.

    Hello there!

    I tried chown'ing the directory to user like chown user /var/www/path/to/http
    but user still don't have write permisions.

    User can rename file, but cant move/add/change permisions to thos files. What is incorect?

    Part of my /etc/passwd file:

    Code:
    matiss:x:1002:1002:Admin:/var/www/web15/web/bikses:/bin/false
janwolf:x:10006:10012:Admin:/var/www/web12/web/skinupload:/bin/false
krauklis:x:20002:20003:Admin:/var/www/web15/web/sneak:/bin/false
web12_martinss:x:10006:10012:Admin:/var/www/web12:/bin/false
web15_martinss:x:10007:10015:Admin:/var/www/web15:/bin/false
    Users matiss, janwolf and krauklis can't move/add/change permisions to files in their directory, but users web12_martinss and web15_martinss are working fine and can normaly administrate their home dirs.

    OS: Ubuntu Server 7.10 with ISPconfig.
