I just installe proftpd on Ubuntu 15.04 and it works fine i made a permission setting for my ftp user called "ftp" there has the dir "/home/ftp/" but i have a problem because i have a folder inside my home folder "/home/ftp/public_html/ that it seems to my permissions dosen't have any effect on because in "/home/ftp" i got the right permissions as i wrote but in "/home/ftp/public_html" i can download, upload. delete etc. why would it not work? you can see my permissions here
