RE: ftp server with no shell accounts

I tried the default ftp server with FreeBSD 5.4 and users
with no shell
accounts but it does not work.
Does anyone know of a ftp server that users would still have home
directories but no shell access /sbin/nologin and that could still
upload files to there home directories.
The default ftpd will work with a little tweaking.
1. touch /bin/ftpshell
2. echo "/bin/ftpshell" >> /etc/shells
3. When you add your users, set their shell to /bin/ftpshell
4. echo USERNAME >> /etc/ftpchroot
The users will be able to login via ftp and nothing else because there shell
is a crap fake shell. The ftpchroot will lock them into their home
directory very effectively.
