FTP USER

Hi,

I have a virtual server in virtualmin for a website (lets say its bob.com). So by default it creates a user called "bob" who has full admin access to this website. Including FTP.

Now how do i create another user that has the full FTP access to this website? I want multiple users having ftp access to the website (specially the public_html folder).

Can this be done easily? Thanks.

Howdy,

You can do that by going into Edit Mail and FTP Users, and clicking "Add a website FTP access user".

That will create an FTP user with rights just for FTP'ing files for your website.

From the screenshot you're showing, you're actually in the public_html dir already.

So, anything you upload should become part of the website.

I can't believe how long it took me to find this answer. Thanks Andreychek!

"Add a website FTP access user." is located on the far right in the same actions bar as "Add a user to this server." Unfortunately for people with higher resolution screens, the links appear unobviously on the far right, whereas all the other usual actions are on the left side.

Glad I wasn't stuck searching for a solution .
