Hi Getting nowhere. I created a user ftpadmin and a group ftpadmin. I made ftpadmin's home folder /srv/www/htdocs everything under /htdocs is owned by ftpadmin:ftpadmin I can now ftp remotely to the /htdocs folder. No problem Having made these changes I can no longer see any web pages. What do I need to do to be able to both ftp and see webpages? Who has to own what?
