I don't quiet understand what your after?

Do you want it so only certain IP's are granted FTP rights?

If I understand, you are wanting a way to block certain IP's from accessing your box. The only way you can accomplish that task is by setting up a firewall on that machine. With that you can limit who has access to the box and over which port numbers. This way you can allow only FTP access to certain IP's.

ftp is for dowlaoding links. i am using joomla for web interface. i just want to allow only certain ips which i want.others can connect to my web on lan.

Just as verification.

1. You want all users to have ability to use the FTP Server.
2. You want to limit certain IP's to the Joomla Web Interface.

Am I correct?
