podman run --rm -p 8021:21 -p 30000-30009:30000-30009 -e "PUBLICHOST=localhost" -e FTP_USER_NAME=bob -e FTP_USER_PASS=12345 -e FTP_USER_HOME=/home/bob -v /dir:/home/bob:ro stilliard/pure-ftpd

Fails due to a permission error

chown: changing ownership of '/home/bob': Read-only file system
 root user give /home/bob directory ftpuser owner

How to use pure-ftpd with read-only mount?

Happy holidays @xhalo32

We don't have built in support for this yet but it's a good idea to add in the future, for now if you've not already solved it I think your best bet would be to clone or fork this repo & comment out the chown lines in the run.sh file, hope this helps.

I solved (worked around) this by having regular home-dirs and a read-only subfolder:

    volumes:
      - ./ftpusers:/home/ftpusers
      - /mnt/data/stuff:/home/ftpusers/stuff/data:ro
