Re: [cobalt-developers] Admin get access denied in ftp

[All of us here <jale@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Add another piece to the puzzle - with telnet, logged on as admin, I can
copy files to the directories that ftp is getting denied (550 error,
someone else asked, guessed correctly).

So telnet sessions can cp files to my /web/images directory but ftp with
the same logon cannot.

I looked in /etc/group - all appears to be okay, but I'm only guessing at
what I'm looking at. Any easy explanations of the items of interest would
be appreciated. Each site is listed as:

site28:x:139:admin,manager   

type line. I assumed this means admin has siteadmin privilege.
