Pretty Linux on My Web

Иногда, необходимо создать дополнительный FTP аккаунт с возможностью доступа в определенную подпапку.
Это можно сделать командами:

# useradd -d /home/taras/public_html -g taras -o -s /bin/false -u 10001 ftp_taras_web
# passwd ftp_taras_web

Параметры команды useradd из man страницы useradd:
-d, —home HOME_DIR
The new user will be created using HOME_DIR as the value for the user’s login directory. The default is to append the LOGIN name to BASE_DIR and use that as the login directory
name. The directory HOME_DIR does not have to exist but will not be created if it is missing.

-g, —gid GROUP
The group name or number of the user’s initial login group. The group name must exist. A group number must refer to an already existing group. /etc/default/useradd.

-o, —non-unique
Allow the creation of a user account with a duplicate (non-unique) UID.

-s, —shell SHELL
The name of the user’s login shell. The default is to leave this field blank, which causes the system to select the default login shell.

-u, —uid UID
The numerical value of the user’s ID. This value must be unique, unless the -o option is used. The value must be non-negative. The default is to use ID value equal to or
greater than UID_MIN and smaller then UID_MAX. Values between 0 and UID_MIN are typically reserved for system accounts.

Можно использовать мой генератор паролей, чтобы получить хороший сложный пароль.
