Hope you can help me out. I'm trying to setup a "drop-box" on ubuntu 9.10 server with vsftpd. I'm able to login and land in the /home/user directory, however I cannot write anything.
View 5 Repliesobviously it's at least difficult but I'm interested in knowing if it's theoretically possible to allow anonymous users of vsftpd to upload to the same directory that anon_root is set to. If it's not then it's no big deal, I'm just trying to get a sense of the range of possibilities.

I would like to have a folder (my ~/public folder) openly available to the entire world via anonymous ftp.
I have read somewhere that the defauld vsftpd config is basically this: no local user login, anon only and sharing a folder called /home/ftp, but I can't get this to work.
Here is my /etc/vsftpd.conf file:

vsftpd is working fine in my network with anonymous user but i need to access that from out-side all the setting is done on the router. I am getting page to access ftp form out-side but only for ftp users not anonymous user how i will give permeation to access ftp to anonymous user ?

I installed vsftpd and configure /etc/vsftpd.conf file...just few common options like allowing anonymous,download,upload. And now i can login with anonymous.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just want to configure Vsftpd to allow users to have total access to the FTP server. The server and users are all on a private LAN behind a router with no access from the Net, so I don't need any security. The following basic configuration doesn't allow uploading files after I log on as anonymous/whatever:
/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
Code:
listen=YES
anonymous_enable=YES
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
xferlog_file=YES
#anonymous users are restricted (chrooted) to anon_root
#anon_root=/home/ftp/incoming
anon_root=/var/ftp
anon_upload_enable=YES
anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
#chroot_local_user=NO
#chroot_list_enable=YES
#chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list
Here's what happens when I log on as anonymous/whatever and try to upload a file:

This is on Centos 5.3 by the way..... I had a DVD and, well, just wanted to test some things.. I'm aware that this is not the latest release.
And, by the way (I just read an earlier post) I've added the username and password with which I'm trying to login (..hello?).
I'm at work and I don't have a copy of my Vsftpd configuration file (don't wanna edit this whole thing - actually there is a copy, below). I've used Slackware for years and never had any issues with Vsftpd - it just works. I am trying Centos because I need help with upgrading my mail server (qmail) and there's not much help for Slackware users. Also, I used to run RHEL3 and had vsftpd working fine (had to copy some file to /etc/pam.d) but it worked famously. I compiled all my web server stuff (just don't like these default things where I have no idea how things are integrated) and I'm hung up on - of all things - vsftpd.
Anyway....When I try to log into my ftp server I get "KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type" and only the anonymous account works. Any other logins produce an error (incorrect login - see ya' later). I have SE Linux and the firewall OFF. I don't recall the directive, precisely, but my vsftpd.conf file is set allow local users to connect. I installed with yum and it added some lines at the bottom (one was about a user list and the other was about PAM). I've got a chroot list and a user list although it's not clear to me precisely where the user list should be placed. I actually uninstalled the RPM and compiled, too. I've done everything but call an exorcist. And I've found tons of posts regarding this on the net and none of the fixes worked. Man - on slackware you type "make" and "make install" (I build it with tcp_wrappers) and you're off to the races.
Actually - I did upload the vsftpd.conf file to work (where I'm at, now). Minus lines that were commented out it looks like this:
Could it, possibly, be something about how I am adding the user, the shell type, etc? I know that in Redhat I used to type "/usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/someuser joe". I've done it that way and I've also done it like so: "useradd -d /home/schmoe -s /bin/bash schmoe".
I am attempting to configure vsftpd to allow anonymous users to PUT files into a shared incoming directory. This would be like a dropbox for my customers. Ideally, the incoming directory's contents would not be viewable by the users.
I believe that refused connection is due to the PAM configuration for vsftpd.

I'm trying to get vsftpd running with both anonymous and local user access to the same folder. The directory I'm using is /tftp with the following permissions:
dr-srwxrwx 7 root root 12288 2009-08-14 15:54 tftp
My vsftpd.conf is this:

I set the default "ftp" user's home directory to /tftp (was /var/ftp).
I have a text based game installed on a Linux server, and I would like to allow logins on that server via SSH, but with restrictions.The login should go directly to the game which reads keyboard input from stdin. If the game quits the user should be immediately disconnected from the server. Alternately, if the user logs in there should only be one command available to the user, the game.I have thought about using a web based interface to the game, but there is something about playing the game in a terminal that just feels right.Please don't reply with "this is a bad idea..." or its variants because that is an easy out. I just want to know if anyone knows of a solution.

i've got a few questions about iptables. i know how to set up ip tables to only allow from an ip address or a subnetting ip addresses. question is how do i allow from 2 different networks? would i need to create 2 lines of entry in iptables to the same port? e: allow 10.168.1.1 and 196.168.1.1 on port 22 is there a way to put all that in 1 line or would i need to create to rules for the port? i know i can use the ssh allow or deny but i'd like to stop access even before it gets to the ssh. stop it at the source kinda thing.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to ask about securing the FTP connection... I have one server that Installed with Redhat Linux Fedora 6.
And now, i want to securing the FTP access, so only the selected IP will be allowed to connect. Do anyone know how to do this?
Another thing is, my server using Webmin 1.3 to manage the server and there not installed / not configured yet with Frox FTP, ProFTPD Server, WU-FTP Server... even there is such thing in my Webmin...
Can i make use one of the three FTP i mention above, and if yes, will it be affecting the current FTP access?
If I allow, my server's IP is:
11.11.11.11
If I allow 11.11.11.11, and block 22.22.22.22
22.22.22.22 can't access the server
But if I allow 11.11.11.0/24, and block 22.22.22.22
22.22.22.22 can still access the server!!
Does anyone know why that is?

i have sudo priveleges and can install via update manager. i read somewhere that compizfusion might affect access permissions and i do use compiz and emerald at the same time.
I am using dyndns to keep track of my smartphone's ip address. The idea is to be able to ssh into my home network, protected by an iptables firewall. If I use the command: # iptables -I INPUT 9 -s myname.dyndns.org -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT it updates using the current ip address, but the next time I get an ip address update to my phone and update dyndns to properly provide nslookups, this is not being updated in iptables unless I restart my firewall. Is there a better way to do this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to wade through the semanage jungle to get permissions for a tftp client. I followed the HowTos [URL] but I get the following at the client:
tftp> status

I finally figured out that the firewall directives shown at the end of the HowTo refer to semanage although the options are stated incorrectly according to the man page for semanage. I did insure that the file hello.o4 in /tftpboot has read permission for everybody.

Sometimes I notice that there is high upload speeds for 10 minutes or so. At the time of the screenshot I was sitting in a public wireless place, only chromium was open and I don't see any reason why there should be sustained upload speeds.Is there a GUI or CLI so I can find out which process uses the internet?

So found one issue: When torrent upload speed reaches peak speed (160-200 Kbytes/s) huge read slowdown happens. Server becomes almost unreachable... It allows to connect via putty but it takes a lot of time.
Tested top stats during those lags (Deluge, Transmission) - 10-15% CPU usage.
So I think the problem is in LVM and not in CPU.
How is it possible to find weak place in system to avoid those lags... Cause if torrent is seeding it's impossible to watch movies through network form that server.
I have a server and I have a few computers connected to it via a Airport Extreme. Using network cable. So when Im uploading,(ftp) IE using a lot of the network "space" the other computers on the network gets kicked out. So what is going on? My Airport Extreme is doing fine, but my other clients just get kicked out. If I pause the upload, everything is okay again. The whole network is 1 gigabit, clients, everything.

I have a site that users upload files on. Its on a dedicated server with 2 HDDs and the first HDD is 97% full, is it possible to use the other HDD for the files users upload? if so how?
