Hi

I have setup a pureftpd server with using MySQL for authentication.  
In addition I have used the -j server argument so the server  
automatically creates the user directory the first time they login.  
Basically everything works correctly except the permissions of the  
user directory created. The difficulty I have is the directory  
created is owned by root and the group is wheel. Root with READ/WRITE  
Access, Wheel With Read only and Others None. There is no anonymous  
access allowed. I have tried other user and groups without success.

 From a post Jeremy Kitchen just sent he says that pureFTPd gets its  
privileges from the OS, but is this true with the MYSQL option? I  
have tried various options including having folders created inherit  
their permissions from the parent, but still wheel has read only  
access and others none. pureFTPd is otherwise accessing the correct  
directory.

I am sorry if this is a regular question, but I'm a newbie and  
haven't been able to find the answer anywhere else. Any help would be  
appreciated.

Thanks
Stephen
