similar to: vsftpd bug "or" feature ?

hey friends, I am using vsftpd version 2.0.1 on Centos4.0. I am trying to create some virtual users who can upload,download and delete the files in their particular directories. I followed the below link to create the virutal users http://linuxsir.zahui.net/html/23/43449.htm I have created a user called "tester" and the entries in the tester file (/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd_user_conf/tester)

Hi, I'm currently setting up a local FTP server, to receive disk images sent with G4L (Ghost4Linux). This server has been running Slackware Linux before, and the Vsftpd setup was relatively simple. With CentOS things seem to be slightly different, so I'm currently trying to work things out. For the moment, two things seem to be creating problems, the simple iptables firewall and

Hi! I'm trying to figure out what's going wrong with a "simple" FTPS setup and VSFTPD. I saw references on Google and tried, and tried, and tried... without success. I'll start by explaining my situation: I have a WEB development server behind a firewall. It's currently only for the intranet. We now have an external company that will have to do a new website

Hi Folks, I recently received a complaint regarding the vsFTP server I'm running on a CentOS 4.x box. The complaint was that it is improperly responding to the LIST command - it is not returning hidden (period prefixed) files in the directory listing. I investigated and found that vsFTPd would only return hidden files in the directory listing when it received the command "LIST

I have a vsftp server hosted on custom dyndns site. We have a 4mb ADSL connection. When I tried to download the files from the ftp server with wan IP address or the dyndns address it downloads some files and disconnects. Please find below an extract from the log file (ace ftp client). I would appreciate if someone could guide me, possibly with a solution for this problem. Many thanks

I have tried to configure an ftp server on one of my machines, I want to all authenticated users to be able to upload files to the apache web root /var/www/html. This machine is behind a firewall/router and will not be exposed to the outside world. I want to know if someone can point me to a good tutorial on setting up one of these servers, I have read the man pages and googled for possible

No doubt I am making some stupid mistake in the log file, but I cannot get vsftp to create a log file showing the transfers. Here is my conf file: # Example config file /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf # # The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file # loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable. # Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults. # # READ

i have been researching for alternatives. it is latest centos 4 (4.7) and uses vsftpd 2.01 started (again) investigating possible PAM or PAM module way... Q: is there a PAM way to control repeated crack retires on vsftpd? possibly something that can be done in /etc/pam.d/vsftpd i have been looking for a solution other than fail2ban and/or similar methods using hosts.allow and hosts.deny or

I am in the process of setting up a new server. In the process I cannot remember what I need to set so that an FTP user cannot move upward in the directory tree of the user's directory. The FTP server is VSFTP. The user's directory is owned by the user and the permissions are 775. Isn't there a setting in httpd.conf to prevent that? Todd -- Ariste Software 2200 D Street Ext

I have 1 Centos server V4.x already running VSFTPD and when the user logs in they get chrooted to the home directory, I have installed the same config files to a second server (again Centos V4.x) and have setup the same user on the second server but the user does not get chrooted to the home directory but is placed in /var/ftp/pub and cannot upload file. The files I copied are:-

I'm trying to set up anonymous ftp using vsftp. I want to be able to allow uploads. The anonymous id is userid "ftp". The ~ftp/ directory is actually owned by root, but ~ftp/pub is owned by ftp. Here's the vsftpd.conf: anonymous_enable=YES anon_upload_enable=YES local_enable=NO write_enable=NO local_umask=022 dirmessage_enable=YES

My vsftpd was working. I use it configured via xinetd and turn it off (disabled = yes) when I'm not using it to keep the bad guys from hammering on it. Recently I upgraded to 4.2 (via yum update). That' the only change I know of on the system. And I didn't have any problems with it. Today when I try to ftp, i enabled it in xinetd.d (with disable = no and a "service

I have setup an ftp server with VSFTP over Centos 4.4. Everything works fine except when I login though IE it doen' ask for the username password but by default it goes to Pub folder. (/var/ftp/pub). I need to access this through view--> open ftp folder in separate window -> file --> login. In short the server doesn't prompt for username when I type the ftp address on the

I have an up-to-date CentOS 6 with reasonable amount of ftp activity (a dozen of network cameras uploading images every second 24x7). The first issue was that the whole /var filesystem was about to get full, because of huge ftp daemon log. vsftpd.conf says: # You may override where the log file goes if you like. The default is shown # below. xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log Ok, the above

Hi guys, Just a quick question, I've been slowly moving all my user services to mysql backend, I realise it's probably not as good a choice as LDAP, but you tend to stick with what you know. To that end I want to setup both Apache and VSFTP to use mysql db for virtual users. Basically I want to create virtual users that are locked into their own home dir and have apache use mysql to

Hi folks, I can't seem to log into my system via vsftpd. All other services using PAM are fine...Am I missing something simple? ftp> user (username) user 331 Please specify the password.

Hi, I am using LLVM to compile vsftp to native x86 ELF code. One of it's object file (sysdeputil) contains inline asm so cannot be compiled by gcc-3.4 frontend. So I decided to firstly link together the llvm objects and libcrtend and compile it to native .o file and then link it with sysdeputil.o . The Makefile is sth like this: vsftpd: $(OBJS) gccld -r -native -o vsftpd.o $(OBJS)
