   You need to change the owner ( www ) in the above, to whatever ID that 
user is logging is as.

   In your case, since it's your site, I'm not sure the best way to 
handle that ( unless everyone logs in under the same ID, or what you gave 
is an example ).  For VHosts though, you would create a line like the 
above for each VHost per below:

upload /Local/Library/WebServer/WebSites/www.theirdomain.com /cgi-local 
yes theirID ftpguest 0755

   Note that "/cgi-local" is a directory we create in each VHost 
directory to keep users out of our main CGI area ( setup through your 
Virtual Host Config - Aliases buttons ), as you have done.

   Also, to do the above "upload..." line for VHosts properly, I think a 
few more lines need to be added to the ftpaccess file for each VHost, but 
I'm not sure of the exact contents since Tenon has not yet answered the 
questions I sent Stephanie a few weeks ago.

   HTH.
