    Suse 10 FTP servers

    Hello,

    I an intermediate Linux user I have installed SUSE enterprise 10 (SLES) and I was wondering between the following ftp servers which one is better (easier and faster to configure, add users create and restrict to home directory)

    -lukemftp
    -ncftp
    -vsftpd
    -pure-ftpd
    or something else

    many thanks in advance

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    I don't know which is best because thats a matter of personal preference, but I usually use vsftpd if I need an ftp server. To restrict local users to their home directories, you could edit vsftpd.conf and make sure you have
    Code:
    chroot_local_user=YES
