I'm new to Linux so I'm unsure how to resolve this. I'm trying to install vsftpd in order to make our CentOS box an FTP server for backups. But I keep running into this problem when doing the "yum install vsftpd"
I'm trying to install Wine on Fedora 13, I tried installing it from the "Add/Remove Software Repository" but the installation fails, I tried installing it from the Terminal using the following command as root: "yum install wine"
Laptop: Compact Presario C706NR Notebook Pc. Ive just tried to install Ubuntu 10.04 and unluckily failed... Ive checked the hard disk and it has responded error: 1files. [Errno 5] Input/output error
I'm running it on a USB. at the moment im using it as my comp. my windows vista is gone. Id like to fully install any recommendations?
I have installed CentOS 5.6 guest in vmware. This machine has host-only networking. I would like to install vmware-tools, which requires that gcc be installed. (As vmware tools is not yet configured, I cannot copy paste the error. So I am typing it out). As gcc has dependancies, I thought of configuring a local yum repository via http. http is already up and running fine.These are the steps I did:
I mounted the iso as loopback in /mnt/cdrom.
cd /var/www/html mkdir -p yum/base-pkg
/var/www/html/yum/base-pkg is where all the rpm's going to be served via http will be present. I am changing the ownership of /var/www/html/yum/base-pkg to apache:apache, though not sure if this step is required.
chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/yum/base-pkg Now, cd /mnt/cdrom ls CentOS | wc -l shows 2684
I am copying these 2684 packages as follows:
cp -avr CentOS/* /var/www/html/yum/base-pkg
I am also copying the directory "repodata" as follows:
cp -R repodata/* /var/www/html/yum/base-pkg Now, cd /etc/yum.repos.d
I am renaming the .repo directories to something else. I hope this will ensure that yum will not look into the default repositories, rather will look only into my custom repository file.
for i in $(ls); do mv $i $i.org; done
Now I am creating my repository file named mylocal.repo (in /etc/yum.repos.d)
touch mylocal.repo vi mylocal.repo [base-local] name=Centos $releasever - $basearch
I have a LAMP server that have been working allright for some time now.
I have been running 'yum update' on it every month without problem up until this morning.
Today when I try to update I get the following: Error Downloading Packages: 1:net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-9.el5_5.1.i386: failure: RPMS/net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-9.el5_5.1.i386.rpm from updates:

I have several CentOS 5.5 machines running on my network; yum works just fine for them. I used the 5.5 cds to install them. I decided to grab the DVD of 5.6 and build a new machine. Can't run yum.

I installed VSFTPD but when logging ( at command line or browser ) at any user always :

I've been tasked with setting up a RHEL FTP server to mirror one we currently have. From what I've read, I need to install and configure VSFTPD and then configure IPTables. From what I've been able to come up with, I need to follow the steps in this article to install and setup VSFTPD. Is this a good complete article to follow you think?Also, how do I copy the iptables config from that server to my new one? I think that iptables on our current server only allows certain IPs or blocks certain IPs (not sure which), so I need to have it do that on my new server as well
I open "man vsftpd.conf", it says syslog_enable If enabled, then any log output which would have gone o /var/log/vsftpd.log goes to the system log instead. Logging is done under the FTPD facility. Default: NO So I add "syslog_enable=YES" to the /etc/vsftpd.conf, and add "ftpd.* /var/log/ftplog" into /etc/syslog.conf. But there is no log infomation in the ftplog file.
I'm still learning my way around CentOS and linux in general... Using CentOS 5.4
BUT, I used the scripts from HowTo/Chroot Vsftpd and it did not work with the non-TLS script config, but the with TSL worked great. I wasn't sure where to put the vsftpd_virtualuser_config.tpl file but I copied it over when the script failed to find it... to where it was looking.
So I think it's working but my question is, TLS doesn't use port 21 but the script defaults to that port. I'm using FileZilla from an XP machine at work and I'm forwarding all the ports given in the HowTo. So I'm forcing the client to use TLS on port 21 but it hangs on the connection. If I use non TLS I get in but it tells me it requires TSL. I've had no luck with vsftpd in the past and this is my next attempt.
I recently got a hosted CentOS 5.5 box at a server farm to run a small ftp server for me.
They preloaded the image and installed a .86_64 build of 5.5, and I've only been familiar with i386.
I didn't think there'd be much of an issue from this, but I've gone thru all the normal steps to install and configure VSFTPD, however nothing is working.
I'm running CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
and I've gotten VSFTPD build 2.0.5 release 16.e15_5.1 installed from both yum and rpm (at separate times) and I've also tried grabbing the tar ball of 2.3.2 and 2.3.4, but run into dependency issues when compiling the code using GCC (it wasnt installed the first time).
i've started and made vsftpd persistent using service vsftpd start, chkconfig vsftpd on, and i restart the service after any changes to the conf file.
I'm trying to run the following settings. in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
# 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.
I've only recently encountered this problem with vsftpd when I was creating new ftp accounts. I keep on getting:
550 Access Denied.
on every action I try to do on ftp, no matter what. I've been trying to solve this myself however my attempts have been futile.
The permissions, and ownership have been checked and rechecked tens of times now, so thats not the issue. I've reinstalled the OS of my server twice now, and the problem is still persisting. Heres my config file, this isnt for anon by the way.
Code: # 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. #
I already have this setup working in a debian server but I would like to setup the same in CentOS 5.3. I just copied all the configuration files to the CentOS server but I'm getting the following errors in messages:
vsftpd: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 64 seconds)... vsftpd: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 64 seconds)... crond[24483]: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 4 seconds)... crond[24483]: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 8 seconds)... crond[24483]: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 16 seconds)... crond[24483]: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 32 seconds)...
I thought someone might find this useful and not have to lose a day for getting it work... (as I did)...
so this is a Tutorial HowTo based on Virtual Hosting With vsftpd And MySQL On Debian Etch but with modifications needed to work on CentOS 5 (in my case it was CentOS 5.4 x86 32bit).
You will need (if not already installed): yum install vsftpd mysql-server
I set up my vsftpd server, but when using "sftp servername" it's not using vsftpd but another (what seems like) built-in sftp server. Even when I stop the vsftpd service I am still able to get a prompt to log in. I haven't installed any other ftp servers.
So I'm using opensuse 11.2 and recently installed ubuntu 10.04 to a different partition and all went well. when I boot opensuse I get a lot of interesting messages yet everything seems to load fine and I've not noticed anything behaving differently. I checked the boot log via
Code:
Looking through it i did see a line in there that looked familiar from the boot up and it is
I'm able to connect to ftp as a virtual user. It was also difficult as nowhere mentioned, that it should be done with SSL. Anyway I found the answer and got connection. But now I can't connect to ftp server as system user. It gives me "530 Permission denied", or if I delete the user from the file denied_users, - "530 Login incorrect".
1. Still I can't understand, how I can log in to FTP server with a system user.Also some other questions regarding this matter:
2. My httpd server Apache has a virtual hosts located in "/home" directory.The scripts create users in "/var/ftp virtual_users". Will it cause any problem if I will change them to "/home"? All I need to do with this is ability to have several virtual hosts in one server with separate access to each of them via FTP. And 1 account with access to all files in "/home".
3. In my ftp client I can see the owner of virtual host "ftp" instead of username.
I'm having difficulties with uploading files to a CentOS-server with vsftpd. I have the exact same configuration on a Fedora10 and there I have no problems...
Trying to set up VSFTPD on the CentOS 5 box at work, which is an internal web development server. I'm leaving soon, and all knowledge of or desire to learn SSH is going with me so the other employees will need to be able to access the web root using FTP clients.
Essentially there is no need for special user accounts or privileges, it's an internal server in a tiny company. I've got the LocalRoot set to /var/www/ which I can log in to and read all files via FTP, however despite setting everything to 777 in /var/www/ and below, I still can't get any write privileges on the FTP server.
When I do a yum or an initial load of vsftpd, I get binary that works. I got the source file "vsftpd-2.0.5-12.el5_3.1.src.rpm" from [URL] to make a change to add chown_upload_mode to version 2.0.5
With no changes to the source, the program works but does not respond to the service command properly. See [URL]
How do I get the source of vsftpd that matches the binary distribution?
