Hi all, There is an external application that sends data to our system via ftp that I want to monitor. I would like for this user to execute a unix touch on a file in their home directory using the ftp quote command (quote SH -C "touch ./myfile"). This would tell me that their server is up even though there is no data to send. The problem is (i am guessing) that they do not have authority to the touch command. I thought I could copy the touch command into the users home directory to get it to work but it did not. I looked at a file called /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess but nothing jumped out at me in there.
Can anyone tell me if what I am trying to do is feasible and if so what I am doing wrong? Thanks
