Re: [cobalt-users] ftp server with different users

[Chris Fragogiannis <franki@xxxxxxxx>]

Give write permissions. If both users are in the same group, change the
permissions to 664. Or change the umask value to 002 in order to have these
permissions automatically for every uploaded file. Both users will then have the
right permissions to delete the files.
