Seems the script kiddies are now hitting vsftp with dictionary attacks. I had three boxes showing around 12000 attempts from one IP yesterday. My thoughts are that there should be an upstream solution for this which is then supported by the upstream vendor. Yes, I know there are several 'other' solutions, but I'd really like to stay mainstream and use a supported method for

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've been struggling with my firewall and getting vsftp to work in passive mode. It seems that everything on this hosting server works just fine without the eth0 entry in my iptables except for vsftp in passive. Am I opening up too much by adding the eth0 line? -A INPUT -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -A FORWARD -j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT

I am running vsftp pretty much 'out of the box', though I turned off IPv4 and have it listening on IPv6. I have stopped ip6tables, as the simple rule to enable port 21 is not allowing gftp to connect (pasv mode, I think). gftp to the IPv6 address, it connects and gets a directory listing. I am running gftp from my normal login userid, connecting to my normal login userid on the

Hi, I want to setup vsftp on centos 4.5. 2 types of ftp. they are active and pasive. What is the default type ftp type o CentOS ? Is is PASIVE ftp? in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf, I found below line.

Hi all, I want to run vsftp behind a firewall.(i.e DMZ zone) .

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

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 guys, I've planning out my upgrade to CentOS4 and one of my plans for security is to impliment the mod_security apache module to filter out unwanted malicious intent. Not having used it before, I wanted to see if anyone here has implimented it and did it block any legit traffic or cause resource traffic/serious slowdowns of their systems? I've asked on the forum about secure

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).
