- After discussion with camel experts, It is confirmed that only relative path are supported in camel-ftp components. As earlier there was support for absolute but it caused too much problems for some people with something working and not working. Also its not a good security model to allow absolute file access over FTP.
- If people really want a ftp user to access some path outside the FTP folder, then use symlinks and so on.
