[cobalt-users] RAQ2 FTP Server- CHMOD fix after upgrade



3.0 upgrade crashed several items on my RAQ2
It deleted my server.crt file so secure server could not be rebooted.
Good thing I had a backup!
It also disabled the ability to do CHMOD via ftp.

Here's the fix that worked to re-enable CHMOD my RAQ2
Good luck everyone!

 Make a backup of proftpd.conf FIRST!
 edit /etc/proftpd.conf

 <VirtualHost "your ipaddress is here">
         DefaultRoot             / admin
         DefaultRoot             ~/../.. site-adm
         DefaultRoot             ~ !site-adm
         AllowOverwrite          on
         DisplayLogin            .ftphelp
         AllowChmod              true
 </VirtualHost>

 Notice the "AllowChmod              true"

 Do this for each IP address listed in the file.
 Reboot the ftp serve and you're in business.
