ftp user setup question

[Nick Larsen]

Hi,

The displaying of the '.' and '..' files depend on the FTP client, as are
'.*' files. '.' and '..' files cannot be messed, unless you mean files like
'.bashrc' in which you could take away write permissions.

Hope this helps you out.

Regards,

Nick Larsen
