selective access to ftp

["Dr. P. Sriram" <sriram@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

dear luggies,

using the standard linux distribution (or otherwise), is it possible to
give controlled access to the ftp tree? for example, i want some portions
of the ftp tree to be available only to local users (with a preset range
of ip addresses), while other portions of the ftp tree may be available to
general public.  any suggestions? solution for similar restriction when
the ftp tree is accessible through http (apache) is also welcome. 

sriram

ps: i apologize for the confusion at the last ilugc meet at the computer
centre of iitm. the building power was down due to some scheduled
maintenance work on the generator wiring. i was given an estimated time
for completion that was hours ahead of the ilugc scheduled meet time of
3:30 pm. in reality, the work stretched to about 4 times longer than
estimated and the building power was restored only on sunday.
