Re: individual home pages - ftp question - Itools7

[DC <dan.newsletter@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jody,

you should be able to choose the FTP home in the user page in the itools7
admin interface.

Go to the users page in the web interface, click on the user you want to
change, wait for their information to come into the interface, then either
type the Full path to the directory you want their FTP session to start in
or use the 'browse' button to see a file navigation panel that you can
navigate by clicking. Also, make sure you enable FTP by checking the FTP
checkbox before clicking the 'apply' button.

In virtual domain installs your domains will normally have their base
document root at:

/Library/Tenon/WebServer/WebSites/your-domain-here.com

If you are not using virtual domains (i.e. you only have one domainname
served from you machine), your document root will be:

/Library/Tenon/WebServer/Documents/

In either case, put your user's ftp directories at the end of whichever
applies to you.

So, if you had a user who wanted a folder named 'mypages' and you are
hosting on a virtual domain, you would put the following into that user's
FTP home folder field:

/Library/Tenon/WebServer/WebSites/your-domain-here.com/mypages

if not using virtual domains:

/Library/Tenon/WebServer/Documents/mypages

Just starting out using iTools7 but this has worked for me. More experienced
users feel free to correct any errors I made.

best,
dan
