Hello !
I installed pure-ftpd, and it is working quite well, but one feature is missing : I cannot use dir aliases...
I tried to create and edit the file /etc/pureftpd-dir-aliases, but It doesn't seem to be working...
Here is the content of the file :
/home/ftp/Films
/media/HDD/Films

The /media/HDD/Films directory exists.
But when I connect anonymously to my ftp, I can see the test directory I created in /home/ftp, but not the /home/ftp/Films alias...
Any idea why ?

I reinstalled gentoo, and now I'm configuring pure-ftpd, but I have the same problem : in the client, I can't see any alias I added to /etc/pureftpd-dir-aliases
Anyone has an idea ?...
Thanks !

EDIT :: ok, I ran some tests, and if I send SITE ALIAS from the ftp client, I get the correct list of aliases. So either the client doesn't show them correctly, or I didn't set them right, wich is quite more likely to happen.

The user is gyscos, its home directory is /home/gyscos.
If the file contains :

Code:
/home/gyscos/www
/path/to/my/directory


then i should see a "www" directory in my home when I use a ftp client, right ?
Yet I don't see anything...

EDIT2 : Well, I found a workaround : mount --bind :D
