Anonymous user is created in the eDirectory tree at the default context. Also,
the configured anonymous home directory is displayed on the screen with an
option to modify it.
If the administrator does not specify a home directory, then the default
directory is taken. The Anonymous user will have only Read and File Scan
rights to the default directory. If the administrator specifies the anonymous
home directory, then the directory is created and the Anonymous user will
have Read, File Scan, Create, Delete, and Modify rights to that directory.

The FTP server has four log files for recording different activity information.
All the log files are created in the FTP_LOG_DIR directory specified in the
configuration file. The amount and type of information logged is controlled by
the LOG_LEVEL parameter defined in the configuration file.
The log levels indicate bits for which any combination can be give
1= ERROR
2= WARNING
4= INFO
If the LOG_LEVEL = 3, then error messages and warning messages will be
logged. If LOG_LEVEL = 4, then error messages and warning messages will
be logged.At default value of LOG_LEVEL = 7, all messages will be logged.
The parameter NUM_LOG_MSG is used to specify the maximum number of
messages that can be logged into each of the log files. Once this limit is
exceeded the log files are overwritten and the old messages are lost.
All these log files can be viewed from NetWare Web Manager.
The Audit log contains details about the login and activities of the user. The
default path is SYS:/ETC/FTPAUDIT.LOG. The file has entries for login,
logout and other file system related operations like mkdir, rmdir, put, set, and
delete.
