Deny directory listing on vsftpd anonymous upload

[Nikkilä Tommi]

If you mean the dirlist_enable option that is a definite no-no, since it prohibits the directory listing from everybody and I need the other users to be able to see the contents of their respective directories. Also the deny_file and hide_file options are out unless they could somehow be tweaked to rule out [directory]/* and only to be effective on the anonymous user. I guess a anon_hide_file option would be a needed addition...

I tried umasking the uploaded files but it seems that at least reading is *always* allowed for the uploaded files and so they cannot be hidden...

Your hint made me think, though, and after numerous tries there really seems to be a way to do this after all:
chmod u-r /anon/ftp/root/upload_directory

seems to do trick. Hope I just don't have the need for anonupl user to access the directory within shell... With vsftpd the denying of directory listing seems to be impossible in my case.
