Hi, Thanks

I am still look for the strange thing. 
Yes, I can do upload new file but can
not upload same file again, I can even do "rename".

If problems lie in wuftp (marco define PARANOID, ftpaccess configurations,
whatever), but my user who have account in
FTP server's /etc/passwd, etc/shadow can do delete and all other things.

The problem stated before only happens to the user who has posixAccount in
my LDAP server which I used for FTP user authentication ONLY (based on
pam_ldap, ldap_nss, free code).

Any idea from guys in  
       ldap_nis list ?
       nescatpe LDAP server list?
       pam_list list?


Thank you all.

Qu

I could be wrong, but if you have PARANOID set, I think this overrides
what you have in the ftpaccess file.

The only additional thing I can think of is if somehow the file system has
been mounted read-only on the FTP server.  But if that were the case, you
wouldn't be able to upload a brand new file, either, and I _think_ you said
you could do that.

Cheers, Bob
