I have a VPS running CentOS 6. I've tried multiple FTP servers but the following problem keeps me stuck.
I want all users to have FTP access to their own folder in /home, so I configured Pure-FTPd to chroot all users except the admin account. This seems to work fine except the following which bugs me:
When I use FileZilla to log in to the admin account (not chrooted), it lists /home/admin. When I navigate to the root directory, I can browse its files, but when I click back to the home folder, it's empty. The admin folder is now missing and i have to manually enter /home/admin to view the content again.
So basically I cannot view or modify the home folder itself.
I'm guessing a permission problem or FTP setting but I cannot find the answer.
