I spent about an hour setting up my first anon FTP site on my RH 8 box and everything was going terrific until I got to the very last step. Presently I have SFTP working fine, however on configuring my anon account, the last command I needed to enter was "guestgroup mynewuser" I got a command not found error.

Is the guestgroup command a WU-FTP command? I did an rpm -qa ¦ grep wu-ftp and came up with nothing.

I purposely did not want WU-FTP installed because I wanted secure ftp only and want to beef up security.

OOPS!

I meant the groupadd command, not guestgroop, sorry :)

Try:
/usr/sbin/groupadd mynewuser

By default unless you log in as root (which is normally not done. You normally log in as a normual user then su to root) the "/usr/sbin" directory is not in the path.

Oh gee U are going to think I'm a dummy, I was right the first time, it's the guestgroup command not the groupadd command I'm having trouble with.

Anyone know what the path to the guestgroup commmand is? Or where it's located on Red hat 8 Linux?

I tried /usr/sbin/guestgroup mynewuser and that did not work.
