ftp user bug?

[kilburn]

I tested in lenny and squeeze: squeeze fails (and your fix works), lenny does not. I think it is a bug in ProFTPD itself.

However, you are right in that there are too many directives there. If you comment out the whole "htdocs" directory blocks for the subdomains, the problem disappears yet users still can not delete the htdocs folder.

The reason why "htdocs" can not be deleted is because of the "root_domain.conf" file that already builds the necessary protections based on the user's home directory. However, by commenting that block the main user would be able to remove the subdomain's htdocs folder, something we don't want to happen...
