maccam_Hi all.  I have added new users to my ubuntu install so they can FTP into the machine.  The sub-directories under /var/www/ are owned by root:root.  The users do not currently have write permissions when FTPing in.  How do I fix this?06:03
andolmaccam_: Put the selected users in a designated group, and give that group write permission to the subfolder in question. After that you might also want to replace FTP with SFTP.06:34
maccam_thanks andol.  We're actually using SFTP already, sorry06:41
maccam_So since the directory /var/ and all contents are owned by root:root, how do I go about giving them group write permission to the folder?  I understand file permissions ok, but it's the group permissions that's hanging me up since I'm not as familiar with that06:42

techkid6Hey, why can't I get certain packages (No installation candidate) on Server 10.04LTS (like git) but can get them on 13.04 desktop.... I know lucid used to have git....17:49
andoltechkid6: In the case of git that package would have been named git-core in lucid, due to an historical naming conflict.17:52
techkid6Ok, thanks17:52
andoltechkid6: In other cases it could simply be that those packages hadn't been packaged yet.17:52
techkid6Oh, ok, thanks so much17:52
