FTP experts, help please with Serv-U app


Chris Wilson

Recommended Posts

I am trying to set up my Serv-U FTP app to allow Nic on this forum, in Hong Kong, to send the Toyota EPC files. I believe I have set upload access rights correctly, but he can't upload. I have put a screenshot of the settings at http://www.gatesgarth.com/servu.jpg

 

I want him to have all rights except execute and delete. I think I have the order right. People have always been ok downloading, but I have never set up upload permissions before. can anyone tell me what's up please? Thanks.

Permission denied for upload only, list files and download is fine.

 

I'm not sure, but it may be due to you setting write permissions on an anonymous account.

 

Try making a new user and point them to the same directory and see if that works.

 

It's very bad practice to use an anonymous account to allow for uploads...thinking about it, it'll be because you've not set a password and the account 'type' is set to anonymous. The server is probably protecting you from doing something bad. Setup a dedicated user and it'll be fine.

I thought the internet connection problems I was having were all sorted, everything was working fine this morning at 5.30am. It is now 8am and I've lost the connection again, I guess due to more folks coming online.

 

I'll try again when I get a connection Chris.

Nic, I'm happy to upload it to Chris if you like? I can do it overnight tonight

 

Sure Jake.

 

Chris has a version of the EPC already, but was having problems setting up so it would work. I have one of the latest versions of the EPC, that also includes set up instructions with it, which are quite straight forward.

 

Let me know how you get on.

I don't think the version I have is very new and the setup instructions ain't great TBH. Can you post you instrucions here so I can see if they're the same?

 

Of course I'll need a username/password to upload.

 

See screen shot of the folder and the setup instructions attached.
