Hello :)

I'm fed up with FTP servers : FTP is great, but I need some admin stuff
like privileges (one user can upload but not download, for example)
unavailable for FTP... at least for those I've tested.

Is there an alternative way for FTP, allowing individual privileges?
I found hxd (hotline protocol, I used it 7 years ago!), it's very powerful
but quite discontinued...

Anybody has another idea? :)
Thanks!

Although, I prefer vsftpd. It's super fast, super secure and super simple.
And simple UNIX file permissions decides who gets to upload (write) and not.

Good luck!

You might want to look at vsftpd in the ports.  You can use this for secure 
and encrypted connections, as well as varying permissions.

WebDAV and sftp are the common alternatives that I know of. With
WebDAV and apache ACLs you can allow upload but not download, etc.

Have you looked at SFTP? It's a subsystem that operates over
an SSH connection. Whilst it requires that a user be able to
login over SSH to the server, you can use filesystem
permissions (and indeed other system facilities) to enforce
things like being able to upload / download on a fairly
granular (e.g.: directory-level) basis.

If you use the scponly shell users can be restricted to only sftp
commands and the chrooted enviroment.
