Got a problem… hope someone can shed some light…
-
Created a new user
-
Created a new group with myself and that user in it
-
Logged into my account, created a folder for them in the hosting so it resides in the following pathing
/home/myaccountname/domainname/userfolder
- changed the folders group
[quote]chgrp grpname userfolder
[/quote]
this accepts the change which confirms the group is active…
- changed chmod on the folder
[quote]chmod 755 userfolder
[/quote]
(and also tried 777)
- logged in as the new user in the shell and create the link using…
[quote]ln -s /home/myaccountname/domain/userfolder /home/username/
[/quote]
this creates the link as expected and when using >ln -g it displays a correct relationship to the linked folder
how ever it refuses to let that user via sftp (and also in the shell) to dir into the linked folder.
even while logged into and using the users account…
[quote]cd /home/myaccountname/domain/userfolder
[/quote]
just returns permission denied
what am I missing?
