Im trying to install proftpd on my debian server but i get this error
ProFTPd warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode.
I run Debian 5 64-bit machine with 2 IP-addresses. I installed ProFTPd through init.d instead of standalone but when I start it, it gives the following error:
Code:
ProFTPd warning: cannot start neither in standalone nor in inetd/xinetd mode. Check your configuration.
If I select standalone as servertype through the config, it works good.
Previously, I had this same machine on the same OS with 1 IP-address. I installed ProFTPd and it worked well with init.d . Maybe the 2nd IP is causing it? How can I make it work through init.d without having this error?
I am pretty new to Linux and I want to start a ftp server with proftpd. Well sofar I have made one but there is one problem when I login with windows, the computer don't ask for a username and password. Instead he just show some folders from my home directory.
I have used the standard proftpd config file, and tried to change some things with online tutorials but non of them worked with windows (only for linux ftp connections). Can some of you refer me to a good tutorial for a multi user ftp linux server or explane me what to do?
I recently reinstalled my server, a Dell PowerEdge 1650 (well it works...., 'sides for what I want to do with it it's more then strong enough.) got debian on it, and then specifically Lenny. works great exept for one thing: Gadmin-ProFTPd.when I try to start it using SSH (which I always use to administrate my server) I get only this as a error: segmentation error I just noticed, that durning startup it already displays a error, mainly this: starting ftp server: proftp[ 77.535939] warning: 'proftp' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use)
- warning: unable to determen ip address of 'server01.locals_foxofinfinety_com'
- error: no valid server configured
- fatal: error processing configuration file '/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf' failed!afther that is starts atd, cron and apache and further works............
I've been installing proftpd on a server running fedora 8. It is setup in standalone server type, and I checked that the process is running and listening to port 21.
When I try to login using a ftp client in Normal mode with root user & password , I receive first a 220, then a 530 login incorrect error.
Can you help me?
I've been pasting my proftpd.conf configuration file below
Code:
I am trying to run svnserve on startup on an Ubuntu Server 10.04 machine using xinetd
My repositories are at /home/svn, so the directory should be the same as in the example. Following the example, the owner should be www-data, I assume. (Is that right?) I've also tried the admin user account as as the svnowner (the one used to set the svnserver up).
I've never done any shell scripting, so I tried xinetd instead of using the startup script. But if I don't get any feedback for using xinetd that will be my next course of option.
For reference, the link above suggests adding
Code:
svn stream tcp nowait svnowner /usr/bin/svnserve svnserve -i -r /home/svn
to the /etc/inetd.conf file, replacing svnowner and /home/svn to the appropriate values (although I'm not 100% sure what those should be). I assume since I did a chown on the repo to www-data that www-data is the owner I need to put in that line, but it doesn't work.
It's just annoying to have to ssh in and type
Code:
svnserve -d --foreground -r /home/svn
every time I reboot.
I found a way to capture emails sent from my Drupal installation, and Fakemail seems simple enough.
I can follow the tutorial. Since the application Fakemail needs to be running to capture the outgoing emails, it seems like a good candidate for xinetd, yes?
I've found a simple config tutorial describing starting the service and what the parameters are for the service-specific configuration files. This got me this far,
Code:
# default: on
# description: This is a script to start the Sandbox app "fakemail"
service fakemail
{
[Code]....
But the service is not starting up.
Or, recommend another application which uses a similar configuration like Sendmail so I can copy this
The Fakemail application/service is started from command line like so,
# fakemail.py --host=localhost --port=10025 --path=[path_to_email_textfile]
Proftpd has been running OK until recently, when I tried to connect using my laptop. All I get is the proftpd-socket file under /var/run/proftpd/ I cant' find any log files with error messages in them. I have checked /var/log/messages - nothing in there either. I have rebooted the machine after re-installing proftpd. Still it wont start Is there any way to find out why proftpd has decided not to start any more?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've recently installed Proftpd to host for someone for a couple of hours.
With the default config it works however when taken the comments out and edited for anonymous, proftpd fails to start
This is the default config file which works if you have a user and password for my machine, but anonymous wont work (when the comments were removed).
My previously running debian system recently started failing with systemd failure messages as some services are being started. It never completes. I can log into recovery mode.
I added systemd.log_target=kmsg systemd.log_level=debug into my grub parameters.
After I do that all that I see scrolling down the page on boot are:
systemd-journald[36] /dev/kmsg buffer overrun, some messages lost
and the occasional
systemd[1] Looping too fast Throttling execution a little
Is there a way that I can boot without systemd using sysvinit?
I installed Subversion and xinetd and added Subversion as a service to xinetd.conf as instructed at http://www.codeandcoffee.com/2007/06...rver-on-linux/
I restarted the xinetd service using /sbin/service. however, Subversion does not end up being listed in /etc/xinetd.d nor does it seem to be running and occupying the port altogether.
what these information mean?What should I do to fix this?

I have 2 identical disks originally configured as a pair for a server. Each of the disks has 2 partitions dev/sdb1,dev/sdb2. The sdb1 partitions I had configured as a raid1 mirror. The sdb2 partitions were non-raid and used as extra misc. Space. Further, the raid setup is also encrypted using dm-crypt luks. Now I want to redeploy each of the disks for new purposes. One of the disks i want to deploy exactly as before (keeping the partitions and content), however without being part of a raid array.
I've successfully deployed this disk into a new system and I am mounting the dev/sdb1 partition as dev/md0 because the disk is set to autodetect raid. Actually I am using cryptsetup and mounting with mapper. Can I get rid of the setting for auto detect on this partition without losing the data, or breaking the encryption? I just want to mount the partition as a standalone encrypted disk. Is it as simple as doing crypt setup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 then mounting it with mapper? Or do I need to change the partition in some way. Or do I simply continue to operate it as a 'broken' raid array?
After some time (thirty second - a few minutes) computer hung (screen froze, I couldn't switch to console, only hard reset helped). From log message I suspected graphic card and I replaced it to some other based on PCI Express (GeForce 6200). It's better. Computer works fine during office work (OO, Firefox, ...), but after being a few minutes in 3D mode (e.g. game with graphics 3D) hangs in the same way.

One very specific issue regarding KDE in OpenSuse 11.3
- when I close the lid of my laptop or get into a screen saver mode, sometimes when the xserver comes back to life it basically goes back to the KDE login menu (log out) without any warning...
I have looked at the detailed settings and power performance management but nothing there.... I am in fact in "don't do anything" mode (power management) but this does not seem to do much.
I've been reading the RUTE Linux book and they recommend the use of xinetd to run services. However, this book is already a bit outdated, and I was wondering whether this still applies to today's circumstances?

I rent a dedicated virtual server (ve) from Media Temple. It is one of those servers where they give you the base OS install and then you have to install all of your own applications.
Anyways, setting up the FTP software for the server has been hell. I am using ProFTPd and Webmin 1.510. I am able to log into the FTP and upload files to any of the directories that I have created.
The issue here is that I cannot download anything from my server via FTP. I have tried multiple clients (Filezilla is what I use normally), but they all come back with "Transfer cannot be started".
That PoS called "gadmin-proftpd" does.NOT.work in debian stable and I don't believe it will ever work. Is there an alternative GUI for configuring proftpd or it has to be done in text mode?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been working on the setup of a FTP server on my Debian system for the whole afternoon. But I can't get it straight! Normally I get it working in just a second, but it's been a while I guess.
I installed only proftpd-basic and it's default dependencies. Should be enough right?
My configuration files are as follows:
I created the user zeitgeist, gave it a password, group and a homedir. Group of the user is nogroup and the homedir is correct with the 755 permission. My port 21 for FTP is open I tested it with nmap -p 21 [ip-address].
My Filezilla client tells me that at first he is connecting, then the connection is established, And then the connection is closed by server.
I finally have my system to where I can connect to proftpd but my uploads fail. I think my problem lies in the upload folder. I do not really understand where to put it. Will someone look at this config file and tell me where to put it and what I need to do to get it working. A basic anonymous configuration, no upload directories.

Im having proftpd 1.3.3a standalone on squeeze with mysql backend. It all works fine with one little problem. When i log in to directory, there is nothing in it - knowing there is shed load of files. Directories are simply not being listed. Im logging in as group member and directory permissions are rwxr-xr-x. In addition to that when i try to create new directory connection is being lost and client attempts to reconnect. After successful reconnection, connection gets lost and over and over again until i abort.

Is there an easy and simple way to setup apt(itude) so that only critical_security_updates are installed? for eg, I don't want to update LibreOffice Writer if there is newest font, but update stuff like SAMBA or Icewasel, proftpd..

View 14 Replies View RelatedSo I've been trying to get a single user to login to an FTP site I've created using proftpd and I haven't had much luck. So check this out: this only applies to one user, I can "su" to the user account so I know the password is set, and I am even able to SSH into the box as this user. This totally eliminates a bad/incorrect password and the server IS accepting connections on port 21 because I can FTP as other users. I've ruled out the client because I tried locally and using a command promptWinders but still no luck. This is what I'm seeing in the logs when I attempt to connect using an FTP client.

Has Inetd been updated to something else or has /etc/inetd.conf been changed to a different directory with Ubuntu 10.04?
