How to set up FTP Server with Active Directory
I've set up a FTP server (vsftpd) with some local user account and it works fine. Now i want to upgrade this FTP server with an ability that can authorize user through Active Directory. I do a search around our forum and it leads me to this page:
Native LDAP, native Kerberos and Windows Server 2003 R2 AD Services and schema
This page is really good but I wonder how can i set up the same FTP home directory for everyone when they log in server or if there is another way to make it works. Any idea is much appreciated. Thank.

ftpusers
FTPUSERS(5) Linux Programmer's Manual FTPUSERS(5)
NAME
ftpusers - list of users that may not log in via the FTP daemon
DESCRIPTION
The text file ftpusers contains a list of users that may not log in using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server daemon. This file is
used not merely for system administration purposes but for improving security within a TCP/IP networked environment. It will typically
contain a list of the users that either have no business using ftp or have too many privileges to be allowed to log in through the FTP
server daemon. Such users usually include root, daemon, bin, uucp, and news. If your FTP server daemon doesn't use ftpusers then it is
suggested that you read its documentation to find out how to block access for certain users. Washington University FTP server Daemon
(wuftpd) and Professional FTP Daemon (proftpd) are known to make use of ftpusers.
Format
The format of ftpusers is very simple. There is one account name (or username) per line. Lines starting with a # are ignored.
FILES
/etc/ftpusers

passwd(5), proftpd(8), wuftpd(8)
