It's important to ensure that you have set up the file <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/etc/ftpusers</TT
> which specifies those users that are NOT allowed to connect to your <TT
CLASS="literal"
>FTP</TT
> server. This should include, as a MINIMUM, the following
entries: <TT
CLASS="literal"
>root</TT
>, bin, daemon, adm, lp, sync, shutdown, halt, mail, news, uucp, operator, games, nobody and ALL other default vendor supplied accounts available in your <TT

By default, the Wu-ftpd server will grant upload privileges to all users. The upload parameter allow remote clients to load and place files on the <TT
CLASS="literal"
>FTP</TT
> server. For optimal security, we don't want users being able to
upload into <TT
CLASS="filename"
>bin</TT

CLASS="filename"
>etc</TT

CLASS="filename"
>dev</TT
>, and <TT
CLASS="filename"
>lib</TT
> subdirectories in the <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/home/ftp</TT
>
directory. In our <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/etc/ftpaccess</TT
> file we have already chroot'd users to <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/home/ftp</TT
> and they cannot access any area of the filesystem outside that directory structure, but in case something
happens to the permissions on them you should deny upload privileges in your <TT
CLASS="filename"
>/etc/ftpaccess</TT
> file into these areas; <TT
CLASS="filename"
