Enabling CHMOD on FTP Server!

As CHMOD seems to be disabled in the default setup, I went poking around inside the [b:4060961e66]ftpaccess[/b:4060961e66] file located in: [b:4060961e66] /Library/FTPServer/Configuration/ [/b:4060961e66] Scrolling halfway down the file reveals the following: [b:4060961e66] chmod no anonymous delete no anonymous overwrite no anonymous rename no anonymous umask no anonymous [/b:4060961e66] After temporarily shutting the FTP server off, I added the following line to the beginning of the list: [b:4060961e66] chmod yes real [/b:4060961e66] Turning on the FTP server removes the newly added line from the ftpaccess file, but now chmod is enabled... [b:4060961e66] ftp> mkdir test 257 "//test" new directory created. ftp> chmod 644 test 200 CHMOD command successful. ftp> rmdir test 250 RMD command successful. [/b:4060961e66] Not sure if this will last through a reboot, but the setting seems sticky enough to last through multiple on/off switches of the FTP server *without* having had to recompile or reinstall anything! :D Cheers.
