RE: [cobalt-users] Recent ProFTPd update

[Rusty Waybrant <rwaybrant@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This worked to get FTP running again...

But, on a few (but not all) of my RaQ550's I have customers getting:
550 <filename.ext>: Overwrite permission denied

proftpd.conf
AllowOverwrite        on

Of course one can still delete and re-upload the file, just not 
overwrite. This is only occuring on 3 of my RaQ550's, but all have 
similar setup and almost exact same proftpd.conf??? Any Ideas?

   problem solved,
   The patch don't duplicate things in proftpd.conf (<virtualhost
   xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> is already duplicate in proftpd.conf in my backup
   one week
   before patch) but after applying this patch the proftpd server is more
   strict with proftpd.conf syntax and crash on the second virtualhost
   entry.
   So removing (after backup) the second virtualhost entry solved the
   problem.
