| + | Now, if this was purely to just upload files we can stop here, however, normally you want to FTP a site that is for the web, so we need to be able to have the FTP user/group work in tandem with the www-data user/group. | ||
| + | |||
| + | So, here is what is needed: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Create a new group (www-pub) and add the users to that group | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | sudo groupadd www-pub | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Add FTP user AND www-data to the group | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | usermod -a -G www-pub ftpuser | ||
| + | |||
| + | usermod -a -G www-pub www-data | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Check that the users are part of all groups | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | sudo groups ftpuser | ||
| + | |||
| + | sudo groups www-data | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Change ownership of everything under the web directory | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | sudo chown -R root: | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Then change the permissions (or certain web sites won't work - such as NextCloud or WHMCS) | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash> | ||
| + | sudo chmod 2775 / | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | * In detail, this is what each number is doing:// | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Then you should be able to FTP to a site without changing permissions all over the place!** | ||
