I was recently assigned to enchance a ftp-server with SSL/TLS support. When I started investigating I found out that the server is a virtual (openvz) ubuntu machine with vsftpd. Enabling ftps was easy enough, I just added the following lines to /etc/vsftpd.conf
Code:
ssl_enable=YES
allow_anon_ssl=NO
force_local_data_ssl=NO
force_local_logins_ssl=NO
ssl_tlsv1=YES

My host has enabled FTPES [URL]. I would like to use lftp to securely upload my files to the host. However, lfpt hangs at "`ls' at 0 [Connecting...]" when trying to connect. See report here: [URL]
I've already search this forum and the web for days, but there does not seem to be any explicit tutorial for lftp + FTPES.
I've tested filezilla and I can connect without any problems via FTPES. I'd rather use a command line tool like lftp, however.
From what I've gathered, the problem may be with the passive mode, and the fact that the response from the server does not reach my machine.
My machine is running Kubuntu and is behind a d-link router. I don't seem to be running any firewall (is that a problem for a personal computer?). I checked: the router's built-in firewall is disabled. I am not sure about the port forwarding issues, though.
I'd like to use your replies to write a small tutorial: I have found many posts by people experiencing similar problems, but none with an actual answer.
Another question: how can I make sure that any successful connection is indeed made via a secure channel. I can use lftp without problems when I don't use SSH/secure channels. Obviously, I don't want that. What tell-tale signs can I look to to ascertain that I am really securely connected?
Any clue? I'm using the same key for root login and it works fine (also works fine for SFTP but i hate using that cause its extremely slow)

there seems to be a problem that has arisen with my beloved netbook (acer one 10.4")running Ubuntu Netbook. the mouse generally works fine (both menovering and clicking) while using the desktop, but as soon as an application is opened you are unable to click on any of the options within the application (buttons, etc). i have tested this over and over, and what seems to be the problem is that the pointer ignores the application and will always click the desktop.
i have used several diffrent mouses (both usb and trackpad) but the problem remains. i assume this means there it is a software fault. if anyone has ANY suggestions, advice, etc. feel free to post. would like this to be fixed asap!

There are two Fedora 12 systems which are now refusing to hibernate. The hibernation sequence seems to happen but then things hang indefinitely with a black screen and a blinking cursor, top left. I don't know where to start looking for clues; what do I look for in the logs, could someone please point me to a good hibernate/suspend troubleshooting guide?
One of the systems just recently got out of whack, for no apparent reason; it hibernated great for a couple of years, even as it went through upgrades from Fedora 9. The other stopped hibernating after its F9 -> F10 upgrade. This one lacks non-root hibernation permissions, but when I issue "/usr/sbin/pm-hibernate" as root, it goes through the motions and then hangs at black screen also.
I have an HP tx2500 tablet pc running 9.04, which I was trying to configure the tablet for using the .fdi method on this page. After I redid the .fdi file, I rebooted, and it gave me a flashing screen, similar to the one i got when I tried to install 9.10.
I tried going into recovery mode and using xfix: bad idea. Then, I tried installing envy and reinstalling the drivers from there. That failed as well.
So now, when I try to manually remove the ati packages,(from command line in recovery mode) it doesn't let me, because of some problem with "fglrx-kernel-source" I can't configure, remove, or purge.
I have a Compaq server, as per the title, and I wish to install Ubuntu Server onto it but ran aground when I found it got to trying to run the installer after the CD Boot menu, it just stopped there, waited 180 seconds (as per the error's details) and then locked up with the Caps Lock & Scroll Lock lights on the keyboard flashing.
Now I know it's not the server, as I have installed other OSes onto it in the past, including an older version of Ubuntu server (9.04), I did try and re-install the 9.04 version but the CD I had was too scratched up and got to a point in the installer (copying files) where it just failed cos it couldn't read the disc.

My aim was to build a VERY simple smtp proxy under debian to handle mail from a port (51234) and forward it to the standard 25 port. I compile and install a "delegate" witch can handle easily that. It's working very well like that : delegated SERVER="smtp://anotherSmtpServer:25" -P51234
The strange thing is, it's working on my virtual test machine and on the dedicated server in local but I can't manage to use it trought internet. I test it like that. telnet [mySrv] 51234 Of course, no firewal, no deny host, no ined/xined, the service delegated is listening on the right port ... 2 clues : The port is answering trought internet with nmap as "51234/tcp open tcpwrapped" have a look at the tcpdump following :

Having some problems, which seems to be the norm for linux mint 9.
Background: I decided I wanted to try LibreOffice out so followed the instructions here: [URL] to install libreoffice.
After a week I found that LibreOffice doesn't actually have a spell checker or thesaurus even though it says it does. Decided I'd had enough so uninstalled it and auto removed the rest of its gumpf and attempted to install openoffice which actually worked, before. Problem is I can't, linux mint wont let me and keeps outputting random rubbish that makes no sense ie:

I start using Ubuntu, after successfully installed it without any problem.Then I downloaded latest updates, etc. But,after installing a display driver, my computer freezes, refusing to go beyond the welcome screen. I tried several ways but could not solve the problem. So I decided to re-intall Ubuntu, download again the updates, again configure my settings, etc. herefore, I'd like to know whether there is any application to backup or to create a full image of a hard disk so as to avoid the long hours of re-installation.

I use Fedora 14 and Firefox as my web browser. I use Astrill VPN service. I have the following persistent problem: I start my computer. Astrill is not set to start on boot. I start Firefox. Firefox can not connect to anything, it says 'proxy server refusing connections'. I go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced>Network>Settings I click the radio button 'no proxy'. The problem remains. I am completely unable to connect to the net. Even on reboot, I cannot connect. On reboot, Firefox is set to use a proxy, although it was not on shutdown. Some init script is setting this. My normal connection is often faster than through Astrill, so I only really need to use it when I want to get at a website that is blocked by the govt here in China.
where Firefox is being told to use a proxy, and how to reset it to not use a proxy, assuming Astrill is not active. There must be something left in a .conf file somewhere which is overriding the settings in Edit>Preferences. Because, if I set it now to 'no proxy', I cannot connect to the net.

I need to get a FTP daemon running on my computer, so I tried to install vsftpd It worked, but later I wanted to try pure-ftpd so I removed vsftpd. Then I discovered I wanted to go back to vsftpd, so I removed pure-ftpd. Now when I type

sudo apt-get install vsftpd
It returns something like this

I have installed vsftpd and I configured the whole package and everything worked. But, after a reboot, it doesn't work anymore. Vsftpd is running. When I do "telnet localhost 21" the machine gets connected to localhost. It also succeeds when I type "192.168.2.10" (my internet IP address) or "86.80.107.30" (external IP address). So the connection is fine. I configured vsftpd to allow only given users, in this case the user bourne. Everyone else isn't allowed to use vsftpd. My main account is stan. So when I connect to the machine via SSH, I'm logged in as 'stan'. When I try to log in to the FTP server with "ftp localhost" and I fill my own username I get an error message saying permission is denied, I don't get a chance to enter my password. When I fill in the username 'bourne' it asks for a password, I enter it, and I get the message 'login incorrect'.
But now it's getting weird: When I switch to the user bourne in the shell by 'su bourne' and enter the same password for FTP, I get logged in as bourne. Then, when I enter 'ftp localhost', fill in the username 'bourne', enter its password, the login is succesfull! It doesn't matter where I connect to (local IP, external IP, localhost, or computer name) I get connected with the user bourne as long as I'm logged in to the shell with this user. Otherwise it doesn't work. Does anyone know why? Below is the config file of vsftpd:

I am building a new server on Rackspace Cloud. When they create an instance, it is a raw install. I have several other instances running Ubuntu 10.04 with vsftpd running just fine.But I have an app that doesn't like php 5.3 so I created a new server instance with Ubuntu 9.1 and php 5.2.Here is my problem... I install vsftpd EXACTLY the same way I've installed it dozens of times on Ubuntu 10.04. But when I try to access it, I get an ERROR 500 "vsftpd: cannot locate user specified in 'ftp_username':ftp. I'm SURE I'm using a valid username & password.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy problem right now is i'm trying to configure vsftpd to work with ssl.
My vsftpd is configured with virtual users and everything works fine (without ssl).
I can ftp to the server from a client on the same network.
Now when i try to enable ssl, the server won't start at all. Actually, if i run service vsftpd start, it look like it is starting, but if i check the processes, vsftpd is not there, and obviously, if i try to ftp, it fails.
So as soon as i turn ssl_enable=YES in vsftpd.conf, vsftpd won't start
The only message i get is in /var/log/daemon.log
init: vsftpd main process (6407) terminated with status 1
init: vsftpd respawning too fast, stopped
I recently installed vsftpd and can't see any files I put in the nopriv_user folder.
I want to be able to login anonymously without a password, see files to download and upload files to a pub folder.

Then I added a folder /home/ftp_priv/pub with permissions 777 and a test file.
