Subject: restricting anonymous ftp

Hi,

   I was wondering if it is possible to restrict users of our anonymous
ftp server to only logins from our local domain.  I would like to use
our anonymous ftp service only for access through our web server and I 
would like to restrict access to only our local web server, not external 
addresses.  Is this possible?  Should I be doing this another way?  Should I
maybe be attempting to restrict certain directories in my anonymous ftp 
server from external access instead of my entire server?

   Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Jane

Hmmm.. restricting access to only local users is not that hard. But the
connection with the webserver is somewhat vague to me.

Anyway, you could set up something like :

class	local	real,anonymous		*.local.domain
class	outside	real,anonymous		*

limit	local		10	Any
limit	outside		0	Any

                                           Grtx. KH
