Setting User Logon Options
For each FTP host, you can set whether you want users to start in their own folder, or start in the top directory when they log on.
- In the left pane, the FTP host. The host properties menu appears in the right pane.
- Click User Options. The User Settings dialog appears.
- Select from the following options:
User folder under root. When a user account is created, the folder for that account is created under the top directory of the FTP host.
Do not list user folders. When this option is selected, users will not be able to see other user folders. Only their own user folder, non-user folders, and files will be listed.
Do not auto create user home folders. If you do not want each user to automatically have their own folder, select this option.
home folders. When a user logs on, they are placed in their own folder (which has the same name as their user ID).
root. When a user logs on, they are placed in the top directory of the FTP host.
Note: If the Do not auto create user home folders option is being used, users will be connected to the root directory even if the Logon users to home folders option is set. Administrators must manually create a home folder for the user before they will be able to log on to it. If the users are forced to log on to the root directory because they have no home folder, AND users are locked into home folders, the user will not be able to see or do anything once logged on.
