Re: FTP user isolation on ReadyNAS 316
Hello BennyKind,
On the ReadyNAS admin page, Settings > Services > FTP, make sure Authentication mode is on User. Then the configuration of the permission should be done on the network's Win server.

Hello BennyKind,
Maybe you can try this, after setting the Authentication mode (Settings > Services > FTP), go Shares and on each share that you have enabled with FTP access, uncheck Everyone from the Security and admin marked.

Re: FTP user isolation on ReadyNAS 316
Thanks.
I suppose this does answer my original question and it does work. This limits the user to just their home folder.
However its not quite what I was looking to do. We have one FTP folder on the NAS. Under this folder we create individual folders for each user and set permissions so that they can only access the one with their name. When the user logs on they can see all the sub folders with everyone elses name but can only access theirs.
Although this method isolates them to just their home folder, the home folder it uses is not the one that I want it to be. I want it to be the sub folder under the FTP folder. If that makes any sense!?
Im not sure that this is possible to be honest.

"home folder" on the NAS has a specialized meaning - I'm not sure if you meant that or not.

You could try setting the FTP folder permission to everyone, and then changing the file permission for each user folder using Windows. If that were to fail, you could alternatively set the user folder permissions (and folder owner) with ssh.

Re: FTP user isolation on ReadyNAS 316
Hi StephenB,
That is what we currently have. As it stands, Active Directory users only have access to a folder that we have given them permission to access that is located in the FTP folder.
The problem we have is that although they can only access the one folder that we have given them permission to access, they can see all the other folders that they dont have access to as well. I want it so that when the user logs in to FTP site, they see the one folder that we have given them permission to access and that is it.
I think we may be going down a different route to FTP now anyway but thanks for your suggestions.

The easiest way to do that is to enable FTP on each user's home folder. (so the main "share" is \data\home, and not \data\FTP). That should already be locked down in the way you want.
