How to prevent ftp user from logon locally

E

ender

hi all, i got hit with this problem. i had a ftp user for
remote login only. so as to prevent this ftp user from
logging in locally, i remove the ftp user from 'Logon
Locally' from the User Rights Assignment. but the ftp user
can no longer log in locally and not even ftp. i know this
sound stupid. i know that ftp user require to have
permission to logon locally otherwise ftp will fail. i
just like to know if there is anyway to overcome such a
situation. thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunately, this is by design. In order to use FTP, the user must have
the log on locally right for the FTP server.
