The recent discussion on Apache+ftp+php etc prompted me to ask a related question. I have a similar setup with "student" accounts each with a homedir containing a public_html directory. Each user has a valid entry in the passwd file and are each chrooted to their home dir by VSFTP. However, I don't want them to gain terminal access at all. Under wu-ftp there was no problem. You just give them /bin/false or /bin/nologin as their login shell in the passwd file. However if you do this with vsftp, it prevents them from ftp-ing into their home also. How do I grant FTP but not shell access?
