similar to: vsftp vs shell logins

thhis didnt go through completely the first time. I am a bit confused as to how this works. I created a local unpriveleged user (with /bin/nologin shell). i uncommented the line containing nopriv_user=ftpsecure and restarted vsftp. I am confused as to what is supposed to happen. Shuld the daemon /usr/sbin/vsftpd be run as root or should it be ftpsecure? Or is the account only used to

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)

vsftpd-2.0.1-5 I am trying to get vsftpd to start with ssl_enabled=yes and not having much success. The config file works when ssl_enabled=No and does not work when ssl_enabled=Yes. I have tried setting the following: rsa_cert_file=/usr/share/ssl/certs/inet06cert.pem which is the public certificate and this: rsa_cert_file=/usr/share/ssl/private/inet06key.pem which is the server private

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

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

HI, I am facing problem in connecting ftp from the windows client. CENTOS5U1 Running vsftp daemon. From linux client i am able to upload and download. When i do an ftp upload of any files or folders from windows command line i am getting below error . *vsftp 553 Could not create file* *NOTE: SELINUX IS DISABLED AND THERE IS NO FIREWALL RUNNING* See my user permission and ownership details

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

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

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.

More digging (now that I have a better handle on how to ask the question) reveals this bug against documentation and release notes for 7.6 to alert updaters about this breaking change for vsftpd: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1647485 The last comment there, #15 by "Roy": > For a workaround to vsftpd login failures that doesn't expose your system > to the

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 am moving from a server from running Red Hat 7.2 (with ProFTP) to Centos 3 (with vsFTP). There is a setting in ProFTP that lets me set the default ftp login directory for a specific user and I would like to do the same with vsFTP. The reason being is I have a 'webadmin' user that I use for uploading web content. I am thinking I could make the home directory of the webadmin /var/www in

I'm having an odd behavior with vsftp on all CentOS 4 servers... maybe 3 too, but I'm not on those much. I am transferring in port mode as I've never managed to get passive to work with a firewall running. Anyway, this is what happens. During normal transfers with few files.. it works perfectly. During the transfer of like a large website with hundreds of files in various

I have managed to get it set up so that I can now use net commands to mount shares from my linux box onto my windows box. But I still don't see an icon for my linux box on the network niehborhood. I have waited and waited and tried what seems like everything but can't get that stupid icon to come up. Any ideas??? Scott

Centos 6, stock installation, no additional repos added. vsftp works fine in regular mode, going to ssl I got issues. I get as far as 'directory listing' and it dies. It times out and disconnects. file: /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config added: IPTABLES_MODULES="ip_conntrack_ftp" (without this line, ftp normally fails, afraid it may be causing issues with the ssl) iptables -A
