I have a Mac - Computer 1 running 10.4.6
Computer 1 will be the FTP server - so ...
- I created a standard user ( not administrator)
- I went to sharing services and added FTP access
- Then on another computer - I logged in to computer 1 using an FTP app.
- The problem is: I was able to see the entire user folder and apparently
had full access to all folders - including library folders etc. also - as a
test I was able to rename/delete some of these important library files -
proving that I had full access.
- Obviously this is not a safe way to go!
Q: What is the best way to set up Tiger so that you can create a safe FTP
account? All I really need is to have access to some kind of public folder
only.
