Project: Set up ftp site for a particular division. This division must have the ability to add users on their own. Users must be restricted to their own directories. Directories should be restricted in size. I thought of an IFS structure like this: ThisDivision GodlikeCustomer Upload Download OtherCustomers Upload Download The easy parts are: - storing the dummy users in either a file or a validation list - using an exit point program to control which user id can do what action upon which directory. The part I am struggling with is controlling the size of the directories. Traditionally you would assign a maximum size to a user profile. Granted I could do this. And the exit point program could say dummy user XYZ is really iSeries user ABC. So, either I create one user profile for all of this and if one customer fills it up, then all are locked out. Or I create a separate userid for each customer. The division administrator would need access to all of the directories. Any thoughts?
