[Proftpd-user] IgnoreHidden directive

[Jeff E. <je...@do...>]

Hi,

I'm having issues with the IgnoreHidden directive not working.  I have a
virtual host that requires that all dot files be hidden and
inaccessible, and as such I've added the following to my proftpd.conf
file inside the VirtualHost section.

<Directory /path/to/the/root/of/the/ftp/site/*>
<Limit ALL>
        IgnoreHidden            on
</Limit>
</Directory>

I've tried it with and without the Directory directive, different values
inside the Directory directive and different arguments to the Limit
directive to no avail.  I'm not sure if it matters, but I have everyone
chrooted via the "DefaultRoot ~" setting.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

This is on ProFTPD 1.3.0a.

Thanks,

Jeff
