Keeping a certain file off server

[linuxman]

I have been seeing an issue with the zclass.php and oscommerce. Is there any way to keep a particular files from being installed on the server? So if someone tried to upload it, it would just be deleted? Thanks.

Put a command like:
find /home -name zclass.php | xargs rm -f

in your crontab to run 3-4 times a day. Depending on how many accounts you have, the find should complete in a few minutes.

There's no way to remove it immediately it's created, although you might be able to add something to watch the ftp log and remove the file immediately it's created via upload.
