similar to: vsftp and nonpriv_user option question

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 login to transfer files? Any help would be

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

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

We have a simple configuration so we could get by with this -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s "SOURCIPADDRESS" -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited it doesn't scale well but servies the purpose. _____________________________________ "He's no failure.

I just compiled and installed 2.0.6 and fired up SWAT. SWAT's security is much different from previous versions, where a user with only read permission could use it, but without the commit changes and delete buttons. With 2.0.6 if you can't write globals or shares, you can't see them and don't even get the share or global navigation buttons. Anyone who can see the global or share

I spun a new xen kernel from pristine sources using modules, had the APCI errors and scsi timeouts. I took pristine source and spun a monolithic kernel and everything appears to be working. gcc version 3.4.4 20050721 (Red Hat 3.4.4-2) if it matter. xen_changeset : Wed Oct 26 11:59:13 2005 +0100 7500:20d1a79ebe31 I have had this APCI issue on this SMP Athlon with modules for a while now.

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

Hi, I want to setup a ftp Server on CentOS 4.4. I will have to choose which ftp is IDLE among 3 ftp pkgs that are vsftp,wuftp or proftp?

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 a linux server connecto into a 100mps LAN, i use iptables implementation of shorewall (shorewall.net) and then I used the wondershaper. When I adjusted the values below, I got a download speed for vsftp at a whooping 1187.91 KB/s but a upload speed is only a painful 27 KB/s. I dont fully understand the underpinng codes behind the wondershaper htb stuff. can someone guide me on how can i

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

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 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
