CHROOT on iSeries FTP Server
My question is not FTPAPI specific,
but I thought this list was a great audience of people that might know
the answer. Here is my situation:
I have a remote company I need to allow
access to my iSeries to drop of files for me to process. I want to
set them up with a limited user ID and also have them go directly in to
their folder when they log in via FTP and not be able to change directory
upwards. I am open to doing this in a traditional library or on the
IFS. My only concern is that right now our iSeries is configured
to log people in to the DB2 side of the machine and it needs to stay that
way. I am not sure the company placing the file will be open to issuing
the namefmt command to switch to the IFS, so maybe my only option is to
use the DB2 side of things or maybe there is a way to route a user to the
IFS @ logon time?
Either place is fine for me to have
them drop files off. I am mostly concerned with restricting movement
on the FTP server to just their own folder/library/directory.
If anyone has done this sort of thing
before, your input is much appreciated.
Thanks!
