Feature/Function

Business Justification: (Why? Non-technical business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company, and the vendor and others?  Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc.   Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)

 

It will enhance the security of the VSE system if you could restrict which files a FTP user could access.

Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a vendors ability to deliver a solution)

 

On the DEFINE USER command add a new paramater 'ROOT=xxx' where 'xxx' is the first part of the public name in one or more DEFINE FILE commands.  When someone logs on to FTP and does a list directory command they will only see the public names that start with 'xxx' instead of every public name that is defined. All FTP commands that use a public name should also have the 'xxx' added. (Get, Put, CD)

Impact: (Optional) (How will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
