This may be a dumb question on the wrong list, but here goes. I'm learning to set up a server via remote. We've got a mail server going and mailman as well. We have apache going and have put some pages in /var/www. There's a firewall on it and it is set so that we can send and receive mail, access the mail list, bring up pages in a browser, ssh in as users, and ftp in as users. We set it up so that root cannot ftp or ssh in.
A user can ftp in and work on pages in their own public_html, but those pages would appear in /~username. I want to be able to work on pages in /var/www, because those pages come up when the domain name is accessed via browser. /var/www is root.root Is there a way other than dropping the pages off as user via ftp, ssh and su to root and move them, to do this? I'm thinking maybe there is a way using groups. Or is there something wrong with my thinking about not allowing root ftp? Thanks.
