I want to get Apache2 and vsftpd to run on my server, using the same directory thatt has my webpage( /var/www/locolhost/htdocs). When i configured vsftpd, and I type, http://localhost/, I get this:
Quote:
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.0.52 (Gentoo/Linux) mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7e Hardened-PHP/4.3.11 Server at localhost Port 80


I fixed it by doing a chmod 755 -R /var/www/localhost/htdocs/. However, I can't upload files from dreamweaver. Yes Yes, I'm using Windows to create my webpage. It's just easier for me to make my webpages cause i'm use to it. I have to use chown inorder to get vsftpd to work.
Code:
chown user:ftp -R /var/www/localhost/htdocs/


Isn't this a huge security risk and if it is how can I configure both Apache and vsftpd to work on the directory?

I am having exactly the same problem (besides that I use zend studio not dreamweaver).

Could some one please provide some insights about this.
An HowTo would be also very nice.


Thank you.
