I don't quiet under whats going on, I followed this tutorial [URL]
In the end I want to be able to upload files to the www directory for my web site.
I just installed Ubuntu server and wish to run an apache web server from it. I have that setup, with each user having their individual folder. (E.G) apache root /var/www/ LazerPhreaks folder is /var/www/LazerPhreak/ so their website would be www.mysite.com/LazerPhreak/) I wish to setup vsftp to let each user access their individual folder and upload website files via ftp. How should I go about this?
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.
I'm testing a Debian Lenny virtual machine to simulate my ideal setup for FTP server (with vsftpd): I want all internal users (corporation users with Active Directory accounts) to ftp into the same directory (i.e. /var/FTP/AD-DOMAIN/) and external users (customers) to ftp into their home directories (created manually on request).
I added user_config_dir=/etc/vsftpd_user_conf option in /etc/vsftpd.conf file and I've created /etc/vsftpd_user_conf/domain-user1 with local_root=/var/FTP/AD-DOMAIN
I have setup vsftp so I can ftp with every external and internal user chrooted and is working properly. AD validation for internal users and "normal" validation (via /etc/passwd) for external users work perfect.
I can FTP this server into /var/FTP/AD-DOMAIN with any AD user with its home directory created (i.e. /home/AD-DOMAIN/domain-user1/) but if I try to ftp with any AD user without its home directory created I get the error "500 OOPS: cannot change directory:/home/AD-DOMAIN/domain-user2"
I have found some references (http://wiki.flexion.org/FtpServer.html and http://howto.gumph.org/content/setup...ies-in-vsftpd/) about vsftp PAM authentication so I would supposedly get rid of the error message and the user would log into /var/FTP/AD-DOMAIN without problems, but I can't figure out how to setup my FTP server.
I've recently been asked to setup our FTP server to accept connections from a remote host. They sent me a file "id_dsa.pub" with instructions to add this key to the xfer user.
I currently have 4 Linux Servers installed in a test lab that I have built for my job. I am in the process of trying to get FTP to work (vsftpd is installed). I don't need an FTP GUI or anything, I can use terminal (and I don't have an internet connection, so I probably can't get one anyway). I bring up the terminal and I type FTP and I am presented with a few problems:
1. If I try to FTP to one of the other Linux Servers on the network, I get "No route to host" error.
2. If I try to FTP to the Server I am sitting on, then I am able to successfully connect, obviously. But when I do an "ls," I don't see any available files.
I am assuming this is because I have not yet set up a folder for it (i.e. Windows uses "ftproot" folder). I am running Ubuntu Gnome 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope for a GUI, and I am running Ubuntu Server underneath (Yes I need a GUI for what I am using the server for).
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...
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 want to enable the communication b/n ibm tsm server and ESX server . for that reason i want instal /etc/init.d/vsftpd in my sys. But iam unable to find the link which can provide me this software [/COLOR].
I installed vsftpd server in one of my servers using "yum install vsftpd" command. NFS server is running in the other server and mounted as "/data" in this FTP server. root in FTP server has also root authority in NFS server. All the files and sub-folders under "/data" in FTP server have 755 or 766 mode. Even I modified vsftpd setting to allow root login.
When I login as root to FTP server with FileZilla client, I can see all the file list in root home directory and move to /data directory. I can download any file in a local HDD but I can not download any file in /data directory.
How to setup Dedicated Server for Web Hosting using Ubuntu Server or equivalent opensource Operating System? And how to make secured my Dedicated Server on public?
how i have a machine installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 with 2 modem (usb & com port) still i want to configure RAS server so some pple able to connect my server and send me some files.
I have just generated a new ssl key on my ftp server with the following command
Code:
I then put my new key onto my file server and attempted to connect to the FTP and it failed (this did work before with the default key).. I use curlFTPfs to mount the FTP directory locally as /ftpbackup, below is the command and the output.
Code:
Error connecting to ftp: server certificate not activated yet. As you see it gives an error about the certificate not being activated, I have looked this up and cant find a way to activate it.
Below is the contents of vsftpd.conf on the ftp server
How can I setup my Linux server to automatically synchronize its server clocks? We need to ensure our server clocks are set to the correct time always.
I am trying to setup a sendmail server on my dedicated server. It was pre-configured to use exim from cpanel. Is it possible to use exim for all emails from a a certain domain i setup on the server and sendmail for others?
ex. domain1.com -> exim domain2.com -> sendmail
If it is possible can someone let me know how i would go about doing this? If it is not how would i disable exim and use sendmail for all mail?
I have a vsftpd server configured and I cannot upload using anonymous account, I've trawled the net have have exhausted my search for answers. Here is my vsftpd.conf file
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.
We are trying to set up a NIS server on a CentOS system. We need to have a NIS server which can provide NIS authentication to a couple of clients. We are practically new to all this stuff.
Just googled to find some ideas about installing ypserv and ypbind and portmapper. We did all that and also started them successfully. But now the clients are not able to join to the NIS domain . The error log states "YP_DOMAIN NOT BOUND".
I guess we have not entered the /etc/yp.conf, /etc/hosts files properly. Please let us know the detailed steps to setup a NIS server .
Also, please let us know what entries should go into the different /etc/<file_names>? What is meant by HOSTNAME in the /etc/hosts file?
Is there any other files which need to be changed? Are we missing any steps?
Also to add-on, while executing the ypinit command we faced the following error:
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts which will run NIS servers. localhost.localdomain is in the list of NIS server hosts. Please cont inue to add the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the list, type a <control D>. next host to add: localhost.localdomain next host to add:
I am trying to use cron and FTP to backup files regularly from my main server to a backup server. The backup server was a "bare bones" setup with no control panel or even FTP. It is running CentOS 5.3.
I installed VSFTPD which appears to be running OK and I can connect via FTP from my other server, but when I try to run my backup script (it uses mput) I get a "553 Could not create file" error.
Some relevant info:
The user I have created for this is "ftz" with home directory /home/ftz/
Running ls -l shows: drwxrwxrwx 3 ftz ftz 4096 Dec 18 07:46 ftz
so permissions and directory ownership don't seem to be the problem.
vsftpd.conf was left in default form:
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. #
