If you do not add this line, each user corresponding to their own directory, of course, this folder built Local_root=/home/ftp

Look at the online said add a line "pam_service_name=vsftpd", I think I this configuration file is already there, no matter.

add FTP user

sudo useradd-d/home/ftp -M ftpusersudopasswd ftpuser

Adjust folder permissions

"OOPS:vsftpd:refusing to run with writable root inside Chroot ()"

 sudo  chmod  a-w /home/ftp  sudo  mkdir /home/ftp /data 

change PAM.D /VSFTPD

This time directly with Useradd account login FTP will 530 login incorrect

sudo nano/etc/pam.d/vsftpd

Comment out

#auth    Required Pam_shells.so

Restart VSFTPD

sudo service vsftpd restart

At this point you can use the Ftpuser just built this user login FTP, see is Local_root set/home/ftp, and limited in the directory.

can be accessed in the browser with FTP://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, also can use FTP software such as FLASHFXP, password is ftpuser password.

About User Access folder restrictions

by Chroot_local_user,chroot_list_enable,Chroot_list_file These three files control, to turn someone's passage:

First, chroot_list_enable good understanding is: whether to enable Chroot_list _file the configured file, if yes indicates that the Chroot_list_file configuration file is in effect, otherwise it will not take effect;
Second, Chroot_list_file is also simple, configure a file path, default is/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list, the file will be filled with some account names. However, the meaning of these accounts is not fixed and is related to the configuration item Chroot_local_user.
third, Chroot_local_ User Yes indicates that all users * cannot * switch to a directory other than the home directory, but! The user is listed in addition to the Chroot_list_file configuration file. Chroot_local_user for no means that all users can * switch to a directory other than the home directory, but! The user is listed in addition to the Chroot_list_file configuration file. It can also be understood that chroot_list_file lists the "exceptions" to the user.
