I use proftpd to host an FTP server. By default, all users are chrooted to /var/ftp/%u (where %u is their username). This is done by using the DefaultRoot directive.
I now have a need to provide an "admin" user that can login and crawl the entire tree, starting in /var/ftp. I can't seem to find a way to bypass the DefaultRoot directive. Is it possible?
This is the best solution I could come up with. I'll leave the question unsolved for awhile in case someone else has a better answer. – GregB – 2012-03-01T00:05:59.140
