Hi, I have a vsftp server and two users for up and download. If user Alice uploads a file, the owner is set to Alice as expected "-rw-r--r-- alice ftpuploadgroup" Now Bob can login to the same folder and is able to rename the uploaded file. Bob can also rename an uploaded folder, but can't rename a file in that folder .... I'm confused, as I don't get why this is

Hi! I'm using Samba in an AD setup, (version 4.2.0) and I'm looking for a way to change the password of a user from the command line, as a non-root user. I know I can use 'smbpasswd', 'samba-tool user setpassword', or 'samba-tool user password', but these all seem to require root privileges. When I run them as root, they work, but when I run them as non-root

Hello guys, I would like to mount a sftp or a ftp with ssl (vsftp with ssl) on to a Windows machine as an X: drive. So far I found SftpDrive witch costs only $39 :) and I don't want it. Do any of you have a positive experience with something like this? I need it cause I will install a very important software on that drive, witch doesn't need to be on the local disk of the windows

I do not use ftp much lately, but my bro did and noticed we cannot ftp to the server since the upgrade. Using VSFTP. Tried rebooting but nothing. Looks like it goes through the whole process and then 'bam'. Could not find an error log that listed the error anywhere. Worked great before 5.4 update, now it does not work at all. Here is the info from cuteftp. STATUS:> Getting

Currently, a users directory is owned by the user and the group is ftp. The permissions are 775. In reading the MAN pages for vsftp, I do not see any other ways to retrict the user from just being able to view their won directory and the sub-dirs. Am I going wrong here?

I am in the process of bring up Centos 5.5. My ftp server is vsftp. When I add a user (e.g. brian), the "brian" directory is owned by "brian" and is in the "brian" group with 700 permissions. However, using a FTP client, the user "brian" can view all of the directories. I do not see any directive in vsftpd.conf to limit this. What have I missed?

Hi: I read the following at http://www.vorbis.com/ot/20040209.html#xiph-org-at-sxsw In addition, SXSW will once again stream over 100 live performances in Ogg Vorbis with Icecast 2 for those who can't attend the festival. Some of the Xiph team will assist in this project where simultaneous streams will be sent from 10 stages through 4 days of the event. Is there anywhere I can

Hi all: logrotate is broken on my stock 4.1 install. After hunting and hunting I found there is a bug filed with Redhat on the issue. logrotate fails becasue my /tmp partition is mounted noexec. I understand it is that way for security reasons. The box in question is on a dedicated hosting site and that's the way it was handed off to me, built. Some said setting TMPDIR=/var/tmp;export

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

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'm trying (and failing) to use BlockHosts to stop thousands of FTP login attempts. BlockHosts works fine with ssh but not with vsftp. I've found the problem but not the solution at http://www.aczoom.com/cms/forums/blockhosts/vsftp-hanging Can anyone could help with either getting BlockHosts to work or suggesting another method?

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

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
