Hi all,

I am having problems with ProFTPD since I upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 from 9.04.

When I login as my ftp user (userftp) in the terminal I can create dirs fine in their home dir. But when I use ftp as this user permission is denied (550 asl: permission denied) when I try and do the same operation (creating a dir). Uploading files is fine though.

I am using the same config for proftpd as I was before, I can't understand what's wrong. Any help appreciated!

Config follows:

Include /etc/proftpd/modules.conf

UseIPv6 on
IdentLookups off

ServerName "whatever"
ServerType inetd 
DeferWelcome off

MultilineRFC2228 on 
DefaultServer on 
ShowSymlinks on
