[03:51] <maccam> Hi, I'm wondering how to enable permissions for users to write into the www sub-directories over FTP
[03:51] <maccam> can anybody help?

[06:03] <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?
[06:34] <andol> maccam_: 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.
[06:41] <maccam_> thanks andol.  We're actually using SFTP already, sorry
[06:42] <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 that

[17:49] <techkid6> Hey, 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....
[17:52] <andol> techkid6: In the case of git that package would have been named git-core in lucid, due to an historical naming conflict.
[17:52] <techkid6> Ok, thanks
[17:52] <andol> techkid6: In other cases it could simply be that those packages hadn't been packaged yet.
[17:52] <techkid6> Oh, ok, thanks so much
