Before migrating to Plesk 10, I installed some additional users, using the 'trick' :
1- creating additional web users
2- adding them into /etc/passwd , ... I know I should not have... but these users were screaming ...)
3- changing their UID value by the default FTP user UID
4- changing their absolute path ( fro the partition whre /var is to a larger partition in /data/ftp_users./
the trick was running fine ...
After migration, (as Plesk 10 offers now this capability) I deleted these guys from /etc/passwd and I am trying to reinstall these guys as additional ftp_users
BUT, going to : WebSites & Domains > FTP Access
I get an error :
Error: There are FTP accounts linked to nonexistent physical directories.
and I can still see these guys listed ( pink) with a Home path being /web_users/xxxx
Q1 : How I can get rid definitely from these guys ? ( are they still stored somewhere ... in the BD ? )
Q2 : When adding an additional ftp user, can I force the home path not to be in /var/www/vhosts/my_domain/web_users/xxx but in another partition /data/ftp_users/xxx ?
thanks for your help
