Hi all.

I have a Mikrotik RB495 with 6.12 software.

I have a 1Tbyte ext3 USB drive attached this Mikrotik. We share this using SAMBA on the LAN, it works just perfect.

But now we need to implement an FTP backup solution for a 3rdparty entity (a separate company needs to log in the router and download the daily config backup. they will do it via FTP, automatically). Unfortunately when we set up the FTP user, it can access the USB drive as well. We want the ftp user to only see Mikrotik's internal storage, but not the attached one, as it contains sensitive information.

Is this possible somehow?

I have requested in the past the same feature.. would be really nice to have a real ftp server with basic features like users folders and permissions

Hm. when did you do it? (I'm just courious, wether we need to wait years, or will this e fixed soon?)
