Hay list,
Can someone tell me how to find out what folder a drive is mounted on?
I have like 4 partitions, that debian made when it installed (I chose the
second option) I forget wich one it was, and I have all those partitions,
Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield.

I have another question, I was just trying to titen security, I don't like it when people can "ls" or see what files and what users are in my home dir. I did chmod 400 (a hit from google) and, now I always just get permission denied. What permissions should I use for /home and /home/user? Also, is there an easy way to add users to multiple groups? I have other dirs I want to manage access to, but would like to save sanity and just use groups. Last thing. I want to enable users that have ssh access to use proftpd. I keep getting a ton, and I mean a ton of erorrs when I try to config the thing with the tutorials. I just had to reinstall debian, and had it working before, but can't find the tutorial that I used to do it with. Any help with any of these is really appriciated, and my appologies for these questions, I have googled in circles for these questions, and if jaws doesn't yell because he has seen the same page 10000 times, I am about to.

For /home, I'd recommend 755, and for /home/user I'd recommend 711. Others on here may have different recommendations. As for your proftpd question, debian has a proftpd-doc package, which will give you lots of goodies in /usr/share/doc/proftpd-doc once you install it.
