I think the default security : should be manager.sys having write access with read:any via an ACL. Also, : it might be useful to create an "incoming" directory where ftp.sys has : write permission, but no read - again as the default. The utility that : creates this (optionally, of course) should also clearly explain to the SM : what is allowed by default. This utility would only be allowed to be run by : the SM. Hello Richard, Easy answer here, manager.sys owner of "/SYS/FTP/anonymous" can define with CHMOD what access read/write restrictions this directory should have... Thanks for your input.
