NAME
       globus-gridftp-server-setup-chroot - creates the specific contents of a directory that can specified as a
       root of the file system tree exposed by the Globus GridFTP server


SYNOPSYS
       globus-gridftp-server-setup-chroot [-c certificate_dir] -r chroot_path_to_create


DESCRIPTION
       GridFTP  server  can  be  configured  to  restrict  access to specific path using the command line option
       -chroot-path of the globus-gridftp-server command. The specified path will  become  the  new  root  after
       authentication.

       That path must contain a valid certificate structure, and the files /etc/passwd and /etc/groups.

       The command globus-gridftp-server-setup-chroot helps creating such a suitable directory structure.


OPTIONS
       -r chroot_path_to_create
              Creates  in  chroot_path_to_create  the  directory structure expected by the globus-gridftp-server
              command, when started with -chroot-path command line option.

       -c certificate_dir
              Specifies explicitly the directory from which the certificates will be copied into  the  directory
              chroot_path_to_create. The default path is /etc/grid-security/certificates.
