Hi, id need to know which user/group filezilla server uses in windows/ubuntu, just to give read/write/execution permissions to folders that would be shared and used by FTp users.
So if i create the ftpuser Oscar ( and is not a system user, only ftp user), and i want to access /srv/ftp/webapp.... He would access not as system user, but ftp user. So permissions in Native path are given to the filezilla server user/group.
Thanks in advance sorry for my bad english

You should read the above topic, there are useful tips for running FileZilla Server under a different user (default seems to be root - root), which is clearly advisable, from a security standpoint.
@botg @oibaf: From what I know, some FTP daemons run as user "nobody" under Linux, not root. Would that be possible for the FileZilla Server, too?

Re: Native folder permissions
Perhaps like postgres, wildfly or mysql, a group and an user called filezilla-server or similar, would be nice, or like apache instead of www-data some kind of ftp-data.boco wrote: ↑2022-01-27 18:53viewtopic.php?f=6&t=54457

Re: Native folder permissions
Yes, the server could be run root-less, though in that case features like impersonation won't work and listening on privileged ports still requires the corresponding capability.
