Is someone able to provide me with a bit of information about how to setup FTP permissions on my sonic.net user account for FTP access? I can successfully access my FTP directories with my FTP program (currently using SmartFTP), however I'm unsure how to setup an anonymous upload directory so that an anonymous user has permissions for write only (yes, write only) for that directory.

Thanks in advance.

Traditionally you just set up a dropbox directory with permissions of 733 (rwx-wx-wx).

Problems can crop up when visitors upload whole directories, which are owned by the anonymous FTP. For this reason a more feature-rich (read: complicated) file manager web script may be a better option.
