Hi all,

Could somebody help me to resolve a big security problem ?

I've users using ftp to put files on my system.
I've created the following directories:

/BOULAN/AC/in
/BOULAN/AC/in/ack
/BOULAN/AC/out
...
In mpe, BOULAN is an account and AC is a group, the rest are HFS
directories.

The user is connecting in accout BOULAN with homegroup AC.
At this moment, the user can traverse the HFS directories to put his files.

Recently, all my files in account BOULAN disapeared, except databases and
open files.
The reaon was a delete from this connected user.
I saw that this user can traverse the parent directories with 'cd ..' and
even go to other accounts.

I tried to resolved this issue with ACD's, but they are not allowed on group
and accounts.

Can anybody help me to prevent the user to go to the parent directories, or
to map /BOULAN/AC
as a root directory ?

Thank You.

Beghein Johan.
