Hi, This update is for the HowTo at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Chroot_Vsftpd_with_non-system_users Regarding two of the scripts provided: vsftpd_virtual_config.sh and vsftpd_virtual_config_withTLS.sh: The configuration additions it makes to PAM do not work on 64-bit systems. In vsftpd_virtual_config.sh (Lines 55 & 56) and vsftpd_virtual_config_withTLS.sh (Lines 123 & 124) should be

Is there a way to configure vsftpd to limit where you can chdir to? ??? === Al

Good day all, I have followed the wiki article on setting up vsftpd on centos with virtual users. I was wondering if anyone had an example of knowledge on how to add another "readonly" user. I don't want to enable anon access. The issue I have is that the tutorial (from the wiki) uses the same real system user (ftp) - so permissions don't apply. d

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I've been working in the bash scripts used in the page http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Chroot_Vsftpd_with_non-system_users Some of the changes are: - - Add vsftpd TLS support in the configuration. So USER and PASS don't be clearly readable. - - If SELinux is available, set the boolean allow_ftpd_anon_write to on in the configuration

Hi, Trying to simplify the postfix/dovecot/saslauthd setup with less than 10 users, I was looking for some way to NOT duplicate the username/password setup. Currently I need to use a seperate file for dovecot as I do for saslauthd. (One is a simple shadow-alike file, the other the sasldb) I know that postfix 2.3 can use dovecot directly for sasl authentication, and that would be a neat

Hi; Now that it's installed, how do I start it and add a user? I can hardly believe there is *no* documentation! TIA, Victor -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/attachments/20091105/78d77424/attachment-0004.html>

Hi all, I''m interested pushing my user list out of my users manifest and into Hiera. Unfortunately I haven''t been able to get it to work the way I thought it would. The error suggests that perhaps create_resources cannot create virtual resources, but the docs I''ve read so far don''t address it. The class (in init.pp): class users { $system_users =

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

I've read conflicting reports on whether this works or not ... I have a chrooted instance of vsftpd (using chroot_local_user=YES), with nopriv_user=vsftpd. I set the following in my limits.conf file: vsftpd hard fsize 50000 Now, I know this works in a shell. However, I want it to work for users uploading files, but they can upload away without issue. Has anyone

Hi list I just installed vsftpd and started it (CentOS 5). Then put some files in /var/ftp/pub (for testing purposes with rights 777) and try to connect with local user to download those files. $ lftp test at localhost Password: lftp test at localhost:~> ls ls: Login failed: 500 OOPS: cannot change directory:/home/test lftp test at localhost:~> pwd ftp://test at localhost How to enable

Does anyone here by chance know how to change the port vsftpd uses for ftps?

Hi, We have patched Centos 4.4 to work properly with the recent DST changes, but our customers are reporting wrong FTP client timestamps based on which areas they live in. What are the two main mechanisms in Centos that control time? I know about /etc/localtime and TZDATA, is there something we may have missed? Or is this perhaps a VSFTPd thing and I could go bug that list? To be clear,

I'm setting up a local mirror server on a CentOS4 box. I want it to serve files over http, nfs and ftp. I've set this up with the mirrored directories on a separate partition. I've got the http and nfs working but am having some trouble with ftp. I'm using vsftpd as the ftp server. I can log in to the ftp server and get to the pub (/var/ftp/pub) directory. However when I try

Dear all, Please find my logwatch results for vsftpd service. i am running updated vsftpd on centos-4.1 and still i am getting some probes. Could someone put some light on this issue.

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 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'm trying to setup a kickstart server that will use ftp. I created a user account and put the ISO images in /home/centos. I created a directory /home/centos/disc1 and mounted the first ISO image there.
