In your example you would use: "umount /home/ftp_user/www_dev" @Emile: you would umount it as any other mounted partition. In your example you would use: “umount /home/ftp_user/www_dev”

What would the proper umount command be, when you use "mount --bind /var/www/dev/ /home/ftp_user/www_dev" to mount? Thanks, I’m going to give this a try. What would the proper umount command be, when you use “mount –bind /var/www/dev/ /home/ftp_user/www_dev” to mount?

I used your /etc/vsftpd.conf but it does not work on our Linux CentOS release 5.4 (Final) server. If we sftp in we can move around to the /etc/ directory and others. Any idea why? Hi,
