General :: Configure A SFTP Server On Fedora 10?

Mar 13, 2010

I had an ftp server about a year ago. It was running off of windows 2003, and didnt have any protection on it besides the normal firewall and NAT router. I shut it down after a couple weeks because i was constantly getting password hackers and weird things trying to break inused Ethereal to monitor packet traffic).Anyway, ive decided to take another swing at it and try to configure a more secure server on a more secure OS. I've found multiple HOWTO guides by surfing google BUT most/all of them want me to download a file called "openssh-4.5p1-chroot.tar.bz2", however the address they all point to does not exist! That address is so my main questions are where can i find this file? Is there a better one that would work? Is there a tutorial someone knows about that would get me past this?

I built a computer last week for this purpose (only had to buy a few parts so it's not like i spent $500), and now i feel like ive hit a dead end just cause a site decided to take a file down and no one else has realized it's happened except me.

General :: Connect To An SFTP Server From A Windows Machine To A SFTP Server Using A DSA Key?

Jul 24, 2011

As a Windows user, I generated a pair of DSA keys from CoreFTP Lite and sent it to a third party that runs an SFTP server. They told me that a valid DSA key needs to have ssh-dsa at the start and the username@systemname at the end. CoreFTP generated neither the ssh-dsa header nor the username@systemname footer. I tried with WinSCP and it didn't generate them either. Is there a difference between how SFTP works between Windows and Linux? If I put a useraccount@systemname at the end of the text will it work? How would the Linux system validate that my system is called "systemname"? If it can't validate, what is the purpose of adding it?

General :: Must I Sftp To An Intermediate Server?

Mar 26, 2011

I can't sftp directly into a particular host. To move a file from my home machine to the host, I must sftp a file to an intermediate host; ssh into the intermediate host; and sftp the file to the final destination. Is it possible to avoid such madness?

General :: How To Setup Sftp Server

Mar 9, 2010

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 to configure telecom equipments. The software downloading process to the equipment requires that my Ubuntu laptop should act as a SFTP server where the software bundle for the equipment is stored. The equipment act as a SFTP client and requests the software from the server. The equipment have SFTP client hardwired in its memory. The same process i did with windows and i used Putty and FreeFtpD and it worked. Now i want to move to Ubuntu as i want to show that it is better. I have installed OpenSSH server in my laptop and now i need to know few things that i could not find anywhere straight forword.

1)I am using a ubuntu live usb drive with persistancy. How do i set username and password for the client, that is how to create the account in OpenSSH server?

2)I need to keep the software for the equipment in a folder inside server, so that it can be transferred to client upon request. In windows I give the path of the folder to FreeFtpD server. How to do the same in OpenSSH server?

Setting up servers and clients in linux is completely new for me.If this is done (as i know it can be but dont know how) then i can completely move from windows to Ubuntu environment.

Fedora Servers :: SFTP Connection Refused Error: Could Not Connect To Server

Dec 20, 2009

I have FileZilla installed on this machine, and OpenSSH (with an open port 22) on another machine on my home network. When I try and connect, I get: Quote: Status:Connecting to 192.168.2.3... Response:fzSftp started Command: open "alphatwo@192.168.2.3" 22 Error:Connection refused Error:Could not connect to server

Which has left me puzzled as I have an open port. Does the username have to be defined somewhere? E.g. the machine acting as my SFTP server can be logged on to locally as alphatwo so that's what I logged in as (with the correct password). Is this correct? If so, does anyone have any ideas as to how I might rectify it? I want SFTP set up so I can copy PHP files from my laptop to /var/www/html/ on another PC (across the home network).

Ubuntu Servers :: Sftp Or Ftps - Configure Another User To Go Over The Web With Limited Folder Access?

Dec 11, 2010

I want to share files over the web with only a few people and limiting them to certain folders. I have been doing a remote access (ssh) to my server to access it from a pc on the local network. I later found out the same program doing ssh (open_ssh) was also doing sftp, great I could do both with one system account. Problem I couldn't find away to configure another user to go over the web with limited folder access without messing up my user to access the pc. I tried ftps by using vsftpd, I couldn't get chroot set up correctly or even log in. So my question is what program and/or protocol should I use to do secure ftp over the web?

OS: Ubuntu 64bit 10.04

General :: Windows 7 - Backup Folders To External SFTP Server With Shadow Copy

Mar 1, 2010

I have an account in university on Linux machine with 10TB of free space accessible via SFTP. I would like to backup my Windows 7 x64 laptop to university. Currently I am using rsync+cygwin, but backup is pretty slow (without shadow copy) and I hate console window appearing every day on my screen when I login.

So I am looking for something like Windows Backup but with support for SFTP. Combination of tools will work too.

General :: Home Server - Configure Fedora 15 To Allow Access Via Port 80 From Other Computers

I am trying to make my home server accessible to the whole web. I have installed Nginx on my Fedora 15 64-bit Linux machine, and it works with localhost but it doesn't work online or allow other computers on the network to access it via the IP address. It keeps coming back with: Could not connect

I have port forwarding. I have even tried different ports but they all seem to be blocked. What could be wrong? I have a netgear router.

General :: SFTP Server Port Blocked On Uni Network / Need To Change Listening Port

Oct 21, 2010

VERY new to linux, erm but I have an issue that needs solving!I recently moved to university, where their network blocks sftp port 22, this means that I cannot connect to my FTP server which is running a version of linux.Now I've got this ftp server connected to a seedbox and it was created using the following walk through..Code:I have written this guide for a friend, but I though it would be useful for others as well.

There are several guides floating around, but I found that most always cock up in some way. This one is tried and tested to work on Debian Etch (on an OVH rps, but should apply to most servers).If there is a new stable release of rtorrent/libtorrent then I will update this guide to show you how to update it (without reinstalling the whole server).

At the bottom there are also instructions to install ftp access & some network monitoring software.Basically, I would really like someone to be able to construct the commands on how to change the listen port for sftp connection on linux or add another port to the list that Linux would use so that I could put in through putty.

Server :: Configure DNS In Fedora 10?

May 31, 2010

I am very new to linux. So i have a little idea about it. I want to configure DNS server in Fedora 10. I am confused where to put the master file and where to put the database zone file. what else should i do to run the dns completely. Also , my protocol is this: I have a adsl connection in my office via adsl broadband router. This gives a private IP to my linux server. I want to run a local linux server which runs DNS, DHCP, FTP and web server. How can I do this? Should I need to do NATing? Because there are more than 10 computers in my LAN.

Networking :: Accessing A Remote Server Using Ssh Or Sftp

Apr 30, 2010

I cannot access a remote server(Ubuntu) using ssh or even using sftp from my ftp client. I've been accessing this server regularly for many months with no problem until now. There is a web server running and that's OK, so no problems there. I asked the owner of the server if he could access using ssh from within his LAN, which he could! So openssl is working from within the LAN, but not ouside of the LAN. I access the remote server by using one of [URL] free domain names. I'm aware that this service requires renewal or activity at least once a month and as far as I know this is up to date and working OK.

Is this a router gateway problem? I suspect that port 22 has been blocked, but what could block this port? It's been working well for so many months. As far as I can tell the owner of the server/LAN has not been tampering with the router, so what could be blocking port22? I'm currently accessing the server using vnc4server.

Another really weird thing is that when I access the terminal on the remote server via vnc4server and I ssh back to the server using one of [URL] free domain names, it works! So as I understand ssh is accessing itself by going out of the LAN and back to itself. This would suggest that port22 on the gateway router is working. But when I try to ssh from a pc outside of the LAN, I just get timed out!

* openssl working from within the LAN but not outside of the LAN.
* sftp not working.
* domain name from dyndns.com working and up to date.
* Web server is working OK.

Server :: Use Scp Or Sftp Command Line With A Key File?

Oct 6, 2010

Running: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.2 (Tikanga) I need to be able to automate transferring a few files over from one server to another using scp or the sftp protocol. I have received a text file which looks like a key file along with username and passphrase information for the target server in question.

Instructions were given to me to import the provided text file in puttyGen then save the imported key as a private key to be used by scp or sftp. My assumption is this is for windows utilities, which I am not using. My frustration comes in trying to automate logging into this server via sftp or scp to automate some file transfers. I am asked for a password every time because the public and private key methods failed to find my keys. How can I call scp or the sftp utilities and use the provided key file (the one I generated using puttyGen or the original one provided to me) to login to this server? I've tried taking the generated ppk file from puttygen and adding it with the ssh-add command but that still did not work.

Server :: SFTP Email Notification On Login?

Mar 16, 2011

I've not been having any luck at all finding the answer to this, so thought I'd ask here: is there any way to get my servers to send an email when someone logs in through SFTP? I was able to get that to work with SSH using a simple bit of script in /etc/profile, but I can't find anything on Google about doing that with SFTP at all.

The OpenSSH version on my server is 5.2p1 running on FreeBSD 8.0. Any way to get the server to execute any command on SFTP login will be enough for me to get this set up.

Server :: SFTP - Folders Become World Writable?

Jan 21, 2011

My website, IsleDiscount.com, is hosted on a virtual server with pair.com. Pair.com offers only one SFTP account on regular shared server and to set up mutltiple SFTP accounts, Pair.com moved me to a virtual server (VQS1), which I believe is not a shared server solution, but Pair representatives were able to create multiple SFTP accounts on this VQS server.

However, when I asked the representative to restrict access of this additional SFTP accounts to a sub-folder, I got the following warning email: confirm you understand this will make your entire web directory world-writeable. This will increase the chances of a security attack. If you do understand this, you can go ahead and execute the command yourself. The command below will accomplish both commands in one.
