zfs crypto discuss - Feb 2009 - Need some help for setting up a FTP server.

I''m trying to set up a FTP server on OpenSolaris (Well. actually
Nexenta Core2). It is supposed to be a guest-user-only, no anonymous access.
Currently, I can upload files, and see them on the server, but if I try to
download any of the uploaded files, I get only a zero-sized file with the name
of the original file, and then the server disconnects... I have tried command
line, Konqueror and FireFTP clients on Linux, and FireFTP on Windows 2000, the
behaviour of the server is the same with all the clients. I don''t
understand what''s wrong with my ftpaccess file :( I''ll add it
here, maybe some of you spot the error:

# ident "@(#)ftpaccess  1.2     03/05/14 SMI"

Did you ever happen to find a solution to this?  

I''m having similar issues - and I think it is with my ftpaccess file as
well.  Just curious if you were able to figure anything out.

Cheers,
Mike

I had a similar problem.

The solution is to compile and install proftpd.
