Hi,
Got it working.  I just moved the files to /home/ftp and made a symlink in
/var/www.  Is it ok from a security standpoint to open up ftp to the outside
world?  I have an unofficial mirror of the unofficial Dectalk archive, an
archive of Dectalk as well as several other synths singing, performing
skits, and all sorts of other weirdness.  Would it be ok to allow the
outside world to access this via ftp?  They can already access it via http.
Jayson.

> Well, that depends. If the allow symlinks option is set in apache, then
this will work. . I assume you are trying to access these files in /var/www
via anonymous ftp right? I can't remember what your doing now. If you are
trying to do this, why not set the anonymous account to access /var/www. If
you did that, the chroot would be to that directory and you wouldn't have a
problem.
