FTP Problem with Network Places
According to the RHCE study guide:
"the FTP server does not follow symbolic links, so the directories must be subdirectories of the directory designated as the home directory of the ftp user, generally /home/ftp." It does mention that you could try to provide access via NFS, and export the directories to which you need access. Hope this helps. Thanks, Jack -----Original Message----- I am trying to navigate a Linux machine using the FTP feature in the Netowrk Places folder. When I connect to the Linux box, I am placed in my user's home directory. I need to navigate to the root (i.e. '/') but I can't seem to figure out how to change to the root directory. I've tried things like: ftp://mymachine/../.. but it isn't working. I get a "The page cannot be displayed" error page in the window when I try it. Ideas? . |
