I already have those lines in the ftpaccess file, so that's not it :(

You have to specify that compressed and tar files can be transferred in the
ftp access file. The format is as shown below.

compress        yes             local remote
tar             yes             local remote

Hope it helps.

Hi,

I have wu-ftpd 2.4 loaded and recently had somebody load games into
a directory.  I have the upload directory for a class set so that files
are created by users in the class worf are owned by crftp.  I had assumed
that directories that were created would also be owned by crftp.  This is
not the case though.  Directories created by worf users in /comm_research 
are owned by ftp.  This creates a security hole since anonymous users can 
now put files into the created directory.  I looked at the code and it 
appears that a mkdir() is done but not a chown() for the directory.
I can modify the code to do a chown but wanted to make sure that I had
not done something incorrect in ftpaccess and that I wasn't going to
introduce other problems.  

**** ftpaccess configuration ****
class   writer  anonymous       elvis.concert.net

I'm using wu-2.4, and am trying to lockout ALL
remote anonymous ftp logins from the hours of 9-4, m-f.

Here's my ftpaccess file. Please take a look at this, because it isn't 
working! (we're using a NeXT 3.0 '040 slab, if that matters. everything
else works a-ok!)

I think all you have to do is reverse the hours setting for your first limit
line to:

limit   remote  0   Wk0900-1600         /etc/msgs/msg.hours

Sorry if this is an old question, but I just joined this list.

I run the xferstats program that comes with wu-ftpd in the util directory,
and have noticed a bug where it always reports the number of systems
accessing the archive as 0, because the program never updates the
"systemfiles" list.  Is there a newer version of xferstats available
with bug fixes/enhancements?

Thanks!

I have setup wu-ftpd 2.4 seemingly successfully. 
The only things that does not work are:

- ls -l  or  dir do not produce any output.
  (yes, there is a ls in /bin)
- I have put a compress and a gzip there too, I do not get error
   messages but whenever I do a get.tar.Z or get.tar.gz, nearly nothing 
   happens except a file of length 0 is transfered.

Do I have wrong modes?

Hi -

Let me start by saying that I don't subscribe to this list, so please include 
my E-Mail address on any followups to this topic.

I have configured a system with wu-ftpd and included a number of upload lines. 
I noticed that the sample line does not conform to the documented format. I 
presume that this is a documentation error. Specifically, the <mode> field is 
not described.

My first question centers on the <mode> field referenced above. Is this field 
really an exp-licit mode, or rather a mask, or maybe something a bit more 
powerful such as the 2nd argument to most u*ix chmod(1) programs (permitting 
things like "u+rw,g-w+r,o-rwx")? The answer to this would appear to be 
important when considering the uploading of directory heirarchies, such that 
mode=0660 would not be desirable for directories, nor would mode 750 be 
desirable for many files.

My next question concerns a broader aspect of the upload lines. I would like 
to be able to permit uploading by a select <class> or <group> to specified 
locations, and disallow uploading to anyone not in that <class> or <group>. 
The upload directive appears to be global in nature, and not have any ability 
to associate a <class> nor <group> with it. Am I accurate in this statement? 
Is there a subtle way to achieve this through the use of "site group ..." and 
"site gpass ...", prior to upload requests?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

This is the same as my message I sent out a week ago.  I'm having the same
problems, but I have gotten no response yet from people on this list.
Could someone please (if possible) take the time to answer the 2 following
questions!?  I honestly have gone over all of the configuration and
installation notes twice now and really cannot find anything I've done
wrong.

In message <199407041422.AA04184@fiaikss04.tu-graz.ac.at>you write:

Peter -

Here's my 'root' level:

surfcty:/home/ftp# ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         1024 Jun 26 22:43 bin/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         1024 Jun 26 22:37 etc/
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         1024 Jun 26 23:00 lib/
drwxrwxrwx   9 ftp      root         1024 Oct 15  1993 pub/
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root            1 Jul 26  1993 usr -> ./

The one thing that I did not see in your heirarchy was a lib subdir.
In that subdirectory, you may need to have a copy of libc.so.4.x.x
It should have a mode of 555 and owned by root.root

-r-xr-xr-x   1 root     root       623620 Jun 26 23:00 libc.so.4*

Another thing you may wish to look at:  Who are you when you 
login as anonymous.  I found that you cannot log in as 'anonymous'
when you are a super-user.

Hope this helps.

This is another great argument against having mailing-list Reply-To:
headers pointing back to the mailing list.

I strongly believe that Replies should go back to the original sender,
and that posting to the list should require a little more effort.

The util/xferstats that comes with wu-ftpd 2.4 always produces a count
of zero for "Systems Using Archives", because the array whose size is
printed ("$systemfiles") never gets anything stored in it.

The attached patch (tested by Bob Fillmore (fillmore@emr.ca) and
myself) seems to fix this problem,

FWIW, I agree completely!!! Not only would it solve this "mail-bomb"
problem, it makes it easier to give someone help. More than once, I
have just done a quick reply, without looking at the header. Since
almost all lists I'm on, but not WU-FTPd lists, will "reply" to the
true originator, I have sent messages to the list which were "private".

Thanks to all of you to help me solve the "problem".
It turned out that a) I had put the ld.so file into /lib instead of
/usr/lib and b) that the directory /usr/lib has to have read access.
I had it with  mode 111 only. That is not enough.

Thanks again 

Peter

Not all that's going to happen on his return.

Is it possible to send a surrogate mail message purporting to be from the
above person to unsubscribe him from the list?

PLEASE!

Hallo,

I hope I can help you a little bit, but nezt time you should add
your system type and some more infos to your directory structure.

Could be a missing device (/dev/zero on SGI) and/or missing shared libraries
(probably /lib/libc.so.1 or /usr/lib/libc.so.1 .....) and/or missing
loader (/lib/rld on SGI IRIX 5).

The same.

Look at your man page to your original ftpd. It should tell you how to setup an
anonymous ftp directory (mostly, the man-page on IRIX 5.2 is alittle bit
confusing because they forget to say that you need the shared libs in
/usr/lib insted in /lib).

The answer is *yes* one can send a surrogate mail message to
unsubscribe this less then welcome addition to our mailbox
but I believe as painful and totally annoying as this is it would be
an abuse of such position to do so.
Apart from the fact that the mail agent he is using is now having
a wail of a time replying to mail it sent in the firstplace...
perhaps it might be an idea when Johnny baby returns to politely
suggest that he installs himself a better one or refrains from
use of it atall!
I suppose these days it is a good idea for Robbers to get Internet
access, that way if everyone used 'vacation' they would know when
to go break into your house !

     Hi.
     
     I've compiled and installed WU-ftpd 2.4, and anonymous users work just 
     fine, but real users can't log in. Ftpd tells them "login incorrect".
     
     System: Interactive UNIX System V/386, Release 3.2, Version 3.0. 
     ("build isc") running on an Intel 486 with 16 megs RAM, lotsa disk...
     
     Ftpd configuration: ftpaccess is little changed from the way it is 
     distributed; only changed parts dealing with informational messages. 
     "ckconfig" says all ok. Changed inetd.conf to use the WU ftpd in place 
     of orignial ftpd. Have tried various command line combos, nothing lets 
     real users in. Added a line "allow * *" to ftphosts just to be sure.
     
     Have tried /etc/shells containing "/bin/sh" and also no /etc/shells at 
     all. Have no idea if this has anything to do with it.
     
     Any ideas?
     
     BTW, is this mailing list archived anywhere?
     
     Thanks.

Hi,
 
I compiled and configured wu-ftpd correctly on my HP-UX and now it works fine.
I made the same on AIX. ftp (anonymous) user works fine but when i try to use
it with real user this is the error message:
 
530 User user_name access denied ...
login failed
 
Can you help me?
 
Thanks in advance

     The ftpd.c program is calling a function called "crypt()" for password 
     authentication. This function resides in my system C library (libc.a) 
     and also in the pseudo-Posix-compliant library (libcposix.a) and 
     they're not the same. Turns out, wu-ftpd uses routines from both, and 
     both are linked at link time. So it was pulling in crypt() from 
     libcposix.a instead of libc.a, and naturally the passwords are 
     encrypted by the Unix system using libc.a's version of crypt(). So I 
     backed up libcposix.a, removed crypt() from it, and recompiled. 
     Problem gone.
     
     My system is Interactive UNIX System V/386, release 3.2, version 3.0, 
     running on an Intel 486. Your system may not work the same way.

I have set up wu-ftpd 2.4. Too many users are downloading non-text files without
first setting the mode from ASCII to IMAGE/BINARY. Is there any way I can 
configure or patch wu-ftpd to set the mode to binary by default?

You need to have device files zero and tcp in your ~ftp/dev directory.

Hope it helps

Hi all,

Compiled 2.4 on my Sun under 4.1.3 with gcc 2.5.8  When I connect to the
server I am able to enter a user name, but it immediately returns a 221
error and closes the connection.  

Any ideas?

Mark

     Hi. Has anyone seen this behavior: ls and ls -l work just fine, but 
     dir doesn't return anything... (on most FTP servers, ls -l and dir are 
     identical).
     
     Or this behavior: in the file transfer log, transfers done by 
     anonymous FTP users are logged with "." (a single dot) in place of the 
     file name. Real users' transfers are logged correctly, however.
     
     Thanks,
     
     Jim Goldman

Perhaps you folks can help me out with an
almost complete installation on an rs6000
runing aix 3.2.4.

I've set up an anonymous ftp site, and the
anonymous part works fine.  The problem is
that regular users who attempt to ftp to
this site, using their regular login id's,
are told: "530 User salasin access denied...
Login failed."

If you try to log in with a complete domain
name (salasin@wln.com) it prompts for a password,
and then tells you your login was invalid.

I suspect this may have something to do with
the shadowed password setup of aix.   Has anyone
set up an ftp site and encountered similar 
problems?  The anonymous part works fine, it's
just the regular logins who are having problems.

Thanks much in advance to all of you who reply.
I'm subscribed to this listserv, but if you'd
like to save bandwidth (I think there's a solution
at hand, although I sure can't find it) you could
email me directly at salasin@wln.com.

The problem is that wu-ftpd doesn't know how to get the valid shells for
AIX.  You can either create an /etc/shells (this is the easy way, but I HATE
this since only wu-ftpd will care), or I've got a patch that will make
wu-ftpd get the valid shell the AIX way.

My patch should be in the archives for the list.  If you can't find it, let
me know and I can send it to you.

I had a similar problem when I installed wu-ftpd. The problem is that
ftpd is looking for a file /etc/shells listing valid login shells.
Since you don't have one (by default - all valid logins are stored in
/etc/security/login.cfg) there are _no_ valid shells. Here is the
contents of the etc/shells I created:

# valid shells for login. Used only by wu-ftpd
/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh
/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/ksh
/bin/csh
/usr/bin/csh

There is also a fix availble for the source code. I'll bounce it to
you.

Good luck!

You don't mention the brand of unix (Solaris, OSF?).  This has become a
VFAQ.  I haven't checked but if the latest docs don't have the information
could someone please incorporate the answers?

Has anyone come across a problem between Fetch on the Mac, and wu-ftpd
using the guestgroups facility.

I have wu-ftpd2.4 running on an RS6000, with AIX3.2.5.  I have a group
set up which contains all the users whose access I want restricted to their
home directories.  In their home directories, I have the same directory 
structure as for the anonymous ftp area (bin/ls, etc/passwd, etc/group).

If I login as one of these users, from another Unix host, there is no problem
- everything works as it should.  However, if I use Fetch from a Mac to
login as one of these users, I see only an empty file list.  The Fetch
transcript window shows no errors.

Using another Unix host to login to the RS6000 is not an option for most
of these users.

Thanks for any help you can give me,

Regards,
Anne

     This is a repeat of the following question, but I had mistakenly 
     omitted our Unix system information. We are running Interactive Unix 
     System V/386, Release 3.2, Version 3.0, on an Intel 486.
     
     Has anyone been able to solve this: ls and ls -l work just fine, but 
     dir doesn't return anything... (on most FTP servers, ls -l and dir are 
     identical).
     
     This problem is related to one mentioned regarding "Fetch" on the 
     Macintosh or WS-FTP on Windows, where directory lists are appearing 
     empty. This is because these "two-panel" ftp programs use dir rather 
     than ls -l to display directory listings.
     
     Thanks,

/etc/shells should contain all the acceptable shells you 
assign to the users. If a user who has a shell not in the /etc/shells
logs in he will not be allowed to.

Hope it helps

Yes, the /etc/shells seems to have cleared up the

Hi Everybody,
	I have recently installed wu-ftpd ver 2.4 on our sun sparc
running solaris 2.1. It works fine except it does not allow remote
users to transfer files. Its says "file not found" even though it
lists all the files. Both dir and ls are working fine.
Could somebody give me a clue of what went wrong.
Thanks a lot
Swarna

Hi,

I've just joined this list, and at the same time just set up two
machines using wuftpd.  They both exhibit the same problem so
somewhere I am doing something wrong.

PROBLEM : Conversions fail, returning a 0 bytes file.
MACHINES: DEC Alpha running osfv1.3 (with siainitgood file in /etc/sia)
	  486-66 running FreeBSD-1.1

I know that the server is able to read the ftpconversions file.
ckconfig (?) says that it can , and no error message appears in the
logs.  As well it seems to accept the .gz and .tar.gz extensions.

The entire /home/ftp hierarchy is owned by user ftp.  Strangely 
enough I have the two entry passwd file in etc, yet ls still
insists on using the numeric id.  Something is not quite right here
(though this is only on the DEC machine).

Apart from this problem, everthing seems to be working out well.
The configuration files could use a little more tweaking though.

Thanks to all in involved in producing wuftpd.  It's much better than
the stock standard edition.

When using ls, mget, etc. (basically anything with wildcards), wu-ftpd

look in to to resolve this problem?

This happens when you mget or mput files that are pseudo
files using on-line compression.

Ie: you 'get' file fred.gz which does not exist but is trapped
by 'get' and auto gzip's file fred.
Not so in mget, this is a feature.

Hi,

I posted to this list a few days ago about some conversion problems
I was having with wuftpd under OSF/1.  I also had some email from
people with the same problem, so though I might post my solution here.
Maybe it can be added to point 7.  in NOTES about the ftp servers
in the INSTALL notes.

Solution
--------
simple really.

Make a directory called sbin under your ftp root directory, and 
copy /sbin/loader into it.  For most of us gzip and gnu.tar are
dynamically linked, and loader is the program that does the
dynamic linking.

Thanks also to Fergal Suipeil <FERGAL@IRLEARN.UCD.IE> who
pointed out the need for /usr/shlib (similar to point 4.
in the notes section in the INSTALL notes) and the 
appropriate libs (which he pointed out can be gotten
with odump -Dl <binary>).

I do have online compression on, but I am not asking for the compression.
I want to get all the files in a directory, ie: mget *.  There are 30 files
in the directory; wu-ftpd always returns that there are no files.  Same
with "dir *" or anything using any wildcards.

Hello All,

I have run into a small error while setting up a group ftp account
using version 2.4.

1)I've added the following passwd entry

ds3proj:<passwd>:405:30:DS3 Project:/usr/local/ftpsutff/ds3proj/./pub:/etc/ftponly


2)Added a group to the /etc/group file called ftponly (gid=30)

3)Created the directories
     /usr/local/ftpsutff/ds3proj/{bin,etc,usr,pub,dev}

4) added  'guestgroup ftponly' to the ftpaccess file

5) added /etc/ftponly to /etc/shells


  I checked out the ftpd.c code and found that at line 1132 the value
of pw->pw_dir is usr/local/ftpstuff/ds3proj  so the chroot fails 'cuz
there is no usr/local/ftpstuff/ds3proj.  

if (chroot(pw->pw_dir) < 0 || chdir(++sp) < 0) {
      reply(550, "Can't set guest privileges.");
      goto bad;
}

When I change it to 

if (chroot("/usr/local/ftpstuff/ds3proj") < 0 || chdir(++sp) < 0) {
      reply(550, "Can't set guest privileges.");
      goto bad;
}

It works fine...any ideas?

Thanks!

Alex

I've just installed wu-ftpd-2.4. For some reason it's working
in the GMT time zone, whereas everything else on my machine
is (correctly) in British Summer Time (=GMT+1).

Any ideas?

Phillip,
You don't say what operating system you are running on, but I had
the same problem with my RS/6000 running AIX 3.2.5.  Below is a
FAQ I put together on installing wu-ftpd on AIX.  Most of the
resolutions were from discussions on this mailing list.  Problem #1
in the list looks like the same one you are having.

PS:  If the developers of wu-ftpd are watching, perhaps they could
     incorporate some of these fixes in the product to make it
     easier to install on AIX systems.  Aside from these problems
     wu-ftpd is great!

- Kurt Jansen

*********************************************************************=
**
Problem #1:
-----------
Timestamps in the logs are displayed in Greenwich Mean Time instead o=
f
Local time.

Solution:                   (from Shane Castle swcxt@boco.co.gov)
---------
Frequently, the SETPROCTITLE definition causes wu-ftpd to destroy all
environment variables, including the TZ environment variable.  If the
TZ environment variable is destroyed then all routines that display
time will use the actual recorded time (GMT) and never convert it to
local time.  Before you do the 'build aix' step, undefine SETPROCTITL=
E
by changing the following line in the src/config/config.aix file from=
:
     #define SETPROCTITLE
to:
     #undef  SETPROCTITLE



Problem #2:
-----------
The compile of ftpd.c fails with errors saying strunames, typenames,
modenames, ... are undefined.

Solution:
---------
This is documented in the INSTALL file, but it is easily missed.  To =
fix
this, you need to use the support/ftp.h file instead of the default
/usr/include/arpa/ftp.h.  The INSTALL file says you can replace the
/usr/include/arpa/ftp.h with the one in support/ftp.h.  However, I ju=
st
changed the #include in ftpd.c to reference the ftp.h file in the sup=
port
directory.  To do this, edit src/ftpd.c and comment out the old #incl=
ude
for ftp.h and add a new one like so:
     /* #include <arpa/ftp.h>       */
     #include <../support/ftp.h>



Problem #3:
-----------
The 'build install' step does not work.  Install commands get syntax
errors.

Solution:                   (from Herald Milz  hm@ix.de)
---------
The install commands in the top Makefile are in BSD format.  The
default install program in AIX is /bin/install, and does not accept
this format, giving syntax errors on all the install commands.

The BSD-compatible install command in AIX is /usr/ucb/install.  You
can fix the Makefile by making INSTALL a variable in the Makefile
that points to /usr/ucb/install.  Edit the Makefile and make the
following changes.
Add the following line to the top of the Makefile:
     INSTALL=3D/usr/ucb/install

Then change all of the install commands to use ${INSTALL} instead.
For instance, change:
     install -o bin -g bin -m 755 bin/ftpd ${ETCDIR}/ftpd
to:
     ${INSTALL} -o bin -g bin -m 755 bin/ftpd ${ETCDIR}/ftpd



Problem #4:
-----------
Real users can not log on - get message:
   530 User xxxxxx access denied ...
   login failed

Solution:
---------
In step 5 of the INSTALL file it says:
  Make sure that you have a /etc/shells that lists all valid shells o=
n
  your system.  Otherwise, those who have shells not listed there wil=
l
  not be able to log in.  =8DYes, this is the expected behaivor.=D9

However, it does not say what the format is for the /etc/shells file =
is.
It turns out that most UNIX systems have a file called /etc/shells th=
at
list all the valid shells on the system.  AIX does not have a file li=
ke
this, so you must create one.  Create an /etc/shells file that lists =
all
the valid shells on the system, one shell per line and starting in
column 1.  A sample /etc/shells file might have the following entries=
:

/bin/sh
/bin/csh
/bin/ksh

Thanks to several listmembers for suggestions. What I did
was to modify src/config/config.sgi by changing

   #define SETPROCTITLE

to 

   #undef  SETPROCTITLE

and then re-building ftpd. My OS is IRIX 4.0.5F .

Posting [155] which recommends putting the timezone info 
where ftpd can find it seems like a more thorough solution,
but I couldn't work out how to do that.

Hello, I just joined the list so forgive me if any of this has already been
addressed. I've been doing a lot of work with S/Key lately and have merged
it into the ftpd source. We've also added an XMD5 command to perform MD5
checksums on files. I also found a small bug in the SunOS4.1 version which
causes the SITE GROUPS command to return incorrect information. I've already
submitted the bug fix for this, but figured I'd mention it here since I
haven't got any response from the author as yet. If anyone is interested
in this code, I'll put it up for anon ftp until the main distribution
catches up.

Note that this version uses my reimplementation of the S/Key library; the
original S/Key distribution from Bellcore was barely usable on any systems
I tried, and had to be severely hacked to work correctly on BSDI.

Hi!

I've built wu-ftpd 2.1c and 2.4 on my Unisys U6000/75 running 
DYNIX/ptx 1.3.1. (this is a SYSV3.2 Unix with some POSIX and BSD
enhancements)

Whenever I connect to the machine in question I get the following in syslog :

Jul  7 15:02:10 vkhfun02 syslog: getpeername (ftpd): Socket operation on non-socket
Jul  7 15:02:10 vkhfun02 syslog: getsockname (ftpd): Socket operation on non-socket
Jul  7 15:02:13 vkhfun02 ftpd[27790]: connection from localhost [0.0.0.0]
Jul  7 15:02:17 vkhfun02 ftpd[27790]: FTP session closed

The client sees : 
% ftp vkhfun02.hfi
Connected to vkhfun02.hfi.hydro.com.
220 vkhfun02 FTP server (Version wu-2.4(10) Fri Jul 8 11:50:53 MET 1994) ready.
Name (vkhfun02.hfi:hktth): hktth
221 You could at least say goodbye.
ftp> dir
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
ftp> quit

I've found the getpeername/getsockname calls in the very beginning of 
ftpd.c, leading me to believe that ftpd expects inetd to do some house-
cleaning before control is passed to ftpd, and that perhaps my version 
of inetd doesn't, or has other conventions.

Has anyone seen something like this?

I appologize for the noise earlier, and I hope you all can forgive me. 

My question ... I've just install wu-ftpd and would like to have a message
	        come up when someone connects to the ftp server, and before
		they actually login. I know this is possible because I've
		seen in on most ftp sites I've used. 

		Also, I'm sure this would be a good question to be answered
		in a FAQ. So if there is one, please point me in the right
		direction.

			Thank you

Hello.  I have two questions:


1. Is it possible to allow users to log in as anonymous, but restrict where they come
   from by username@hostname?

I am trying this with the ftphosts file, with no success.  I initially read the man page
to mean that this was possible, but now after some experimentation and a look at the code
it looks like I can only restrict by hostname:

allow * foohost.domain

since:

allow fooname foohost.domain

seems to deny anonymous logins from foohost.domain, whereas I wish to restrict anonymous
logins from foohost.domain to only user fooname.  (This way, I do not need to give away an
account.)


2. Could I have an example of how the tar/compress stuff works, please?  I don't know how to
   check if is working or not.  (If I have ever used it myself, it was invisible to me...)

Of course, I have in ftpaccess

tar		yes	all
compress	yes	all

all is the only class, and I have bin/tar (gnu), bin/compress (sun), and all
the stuff in lib.


Thanks in advance,

Bob.

Hi Bob,

I don't know if this will help, but if you want to see tar in action try
using the switch v (for verbose) next time you run tar. For example to
see a listing of the contents of a tarfile do:
	tar tvf filename.tar

Hope this helps. Try doing a man (or help) on the command tar. :)

I am in the process of setting up wu-ftpd version 2.4. I specified
command logging in the ftpaccess file, but the only items that seem to
be getting logged are the actual transfers in _PATH_XFERLOG. In grep-ing
through the code, I can see where the log_command flag is set and
numerous to syslog calls to LOG_FILE. But I cannot find any place for
LOG_FILE is even defined, let alone where the file is created.

Can anyone provide some guidance here?


Thanks,

Dennis

In my ftpaccess file, I have the line:
guestgroup      ftp

Now this should logically treat everyone logging in belonging to group
ftp as a pseudo-anonymous ftp account, right?  Well I get the following
line:
550 Can't set guest privileges.

Any ideas??  Here's a copy of my /etc/passwd entry and /etc/group entry
too:
(/etc/passwd entry)
test:<encrypted passwd>:200:200:Test guest FTP
Account:/home/ftp/./home/ftp/test:
(/etc/group entry)
ftp:*:200:

Any way of letting a person in guestgroup in without a password,
similar to anonymous ftp?  Any help with all these questions would be
appreciated.

Thanks,

You must edit the pathnames.h file in the src directory.  This was the first thing to do
as detailed in the INSTALL file.

But since it seems you already have the server running, perhaps you accidentally overlooked
the _PATH_XERLOG_ line pathnames.h.  Be sure to check all the pathnames in the file, since
in my sunos413 case, I recall having to change the paths to some system files.

Good luck.

Whenever a real user puts a file on the machine with the ftp server
running, the group for the file is set to system and not the uses
default group. I've also noticed that the group is also set to system
based on the way dir works. I'm running over AIX. -- could this be the
reason?  I already know about the fix for /etc/shells.

Hi,

I had a similar problem as the one mentioned in post 152 about editing the
ineted.conf file. I put in a similar ftp entry and when I ftp to my machine
there's a connection refused/socket operation on non-socket. I know I
restarted inetd also. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been stuck
on this problem for a week now looking for posts.

Is it true that the password is truncated at 8 characters?
Whenever I assign a password of longer than 8 characters to
a user, that user is unable to log in using wu-ftpd 2.4
on my SunOS 4.1.3 Sparcstation 1+.

Not being a yacc hack, I can't tell where the allocation for
the character strings is made, so I can't (easily) change it.
I can dig, but I thought this might have come up before and
there might be a simple answer.  BTW, I am running the
Shadow Password system, and the defines for that really
helped install things.

Thanks.

	David.

Hello,

The dir command is still not working for me under
wu_ftp 2.4. Its a SPARCstation 1+ running SunOS 4.1.3_u1.
I've been faithfully trying people's suggestions over the 
last week or so and I'm stumped. Is this a bug? If so is
there a bug fix for it?

	thanks,
	Penny Karr

I've had no problem with the server truncating passwords.  Most ftp clients
chop it at 8, that is probably where the problem is.

The _only_ way I was able to get ``dir'' to work under SunOS 4.1.3
was to place a statically linked ls in place of the dynamically linked
one.  Even with ld.so libc.so.1.x and libdl in place, I never got a
dynamically linked ls to work.  Let me know if you need the statically
linked ls binary.

If you check the man page for the sunos in.ftpd is tells you
what files are needed and where. The thing that caught me out
was the need for ~ftp/dev/zero. I would tell you the exact things
but I cant get at the man pages at the moment.

Hi,
 
I have an AIX 3.2.5.
I installed wu-ftpd, copied ls in ~/bin (mode 111) and passwd in ~/etc (without
passwd, mode 111), but with anonymous dir doesn't work.
If I try to use ftp anonymous from an HP ws also ls doesn't work.
 
Can you help me?
 
Thanks in advance

Hi,

I installed wuftpd on two machines (one FreeBSD, the other OSF/1).
Now I can no longer ftp to either machine from my PC.  I have seen
the cautionary messages about using - as the first char for your
password, but I do not even get the Username prompt.  

This is using the ftp that comes with NCSA's telnet program.

ideas anyone ?  It must be something simple.  Did I miss
something in the install notes ?

I have some problems with ftpd 2.4 under OSF/1 V2.0B. The first one is one that
has caught others, and which has been discussed on this list earlier. This is
the problem of getting the message "550 fchown: Not owner". Presumably this
is due to a bug in fchown in OSF/1 V2.0B. Does anyone now if a patch, or a
workaround, exists for this?

The other problem is minor, but annoying. I use the %N magic cookie in our
welcome.msg. It has always behaved nicely on other OS's but in this case it
has the constant value of -1. Does anybody have any idea why?

AIX doesn't require a ~/ftp/dev directory.

I finally got SunOS 4.1.3 to make dir work with wu-ftpd.  It turns out,
you need a few more files than I have seen posted (here & in man pages)
to date.  The best way to identify these files is to do the following
on your ftp machine:

trace ls

A lot of crap will be printed, but what your are looking for is the
runtime library filenames.  Here are the files I needed to finally make
my system work.  They were simply copied into the chroot'ed filesystem
~ftp:

/bin/ls  (of course)
/etc/passwd
/etc/group
/etc/ld.so.cache
/usr/lib/ld.so
/usr/lib/libc.so.1.9
/usr/lib/libc.so.1.9.1
/usr/lib/libdl.so.1.0
/dev/zero

Try these out... Actually I was quite shocked when I found that dir DID
work after days of messing around.  Good luck!

Hello,

"Dir" is now working under SunOS 4.1.3_u1 for me. I needed the
statically linked ls instead of the dynamically linked one. 
F.Y.I-I got if from the GNU fileutils. You can get these from
one of the archive sites, if you don't have a copy at your site.

	Thanks for all your help,
	Penny Karr

I am trying to set up wu-ftpd on AIX 3.2.5.

It built ok (after getting over a few small problems), and
is running (sort of), but I cannot get the access control to
work as I want it.
Is there anyone out there who has successfully got it to work
on AIX, and who would be prepared to share tips about setting up
ftpaccess, and setting up directories, etc?

Hallo wu-ftp users,

I just had to find out that wu-ftpd determines the data port number
by substracting 1 from the command port number. Is this correct
behaviour? It does not even try to look it up in the services database.
I got complaints from project partners who's router blocks almost
everything. The ftpd used for this project doesn't use the standard
port 21. So the data port moved also. The man page doesn't mention this.

I feel this should be configurable.

What do you think?

Since noone has answered this, I'm doing it myself since I have now solved
them both.

It certainly seems like there is a bug in fchown, DEC here in Sweden didn't
have anything on it though, so it probably hasn't been fixed (or even brought
to DEC's attention). The workaround I adopted was to change the fchown call
back to the chown call as it was in the 2.3 code. This included dropping at
least on line of code. Since I don't know for sure why the change was made in
the first place I would really like to know if there are any potential
problems, securitywise or otherwise, with this. Perhaps I brought back the
race condition by doing it this way?

Blush. Forgot to make the /usr/local/daemon/ftpd directory, that's why.

I've tried looking thru the source, and haven't gotten very far. What's the
obvious setup I'm missing that is preventing anon users from running "dir"?
ls works fine, but dir returns nothing. I've checked the obvious (to me ;)
perms, and made sure ls is in ~ftp/bin (as well as ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec, altho
I'm not sure it is needed there.) This is SunOS, so I've copied over
the shared libs (in prep for getting gnu's ls, and putting a static version 
in.)

I'm sure I've missed something obvious, but can't figure out what. I've looked
for a FAQ, but can't seem to find one (wuarchive won't let me in, too many
users when I try).

thanks,

You have probably missed a shared library.  I posted something up here
about a week ago describing all of the shared libs I needed, but I lost
that original file.  Just do a 'trace ls' and make note of all the
libraries called in the resulting output.  Copy 'em over, make sure you
have /etc/passwd, and /etc/group, and whammo!  This worked on SunOS
4.1.3_U1 here... after weeks of futile FAQ-perusing and such... If you
need a list of the ones [libs] I needed, email me directly and I can
dig it out of our system.  Good luck..

Is there something special I must do to allow users to cd to a 
symbolic link to a directory?

I've tried this on my system, but I receive errors when attempting
the cd...

Thanx,

Don,
I would appreciate to know what is a loopback file system.
Thanks in advance.

} Hi , I guess you can try to export the directory you want to
} link somewhere under the chroot dir.
} Then use NFS to mount it locally!

This is horrible on system load if the NFS mounted area is used much....

}	Hi , I guess you can try to export the directory you want to
}	link somewhere under the chroot dir.

 ----- End Included Message -----

 No, not NFS. A loopback file system is a virtual file system.
 The following is from the man page on mount:    
    
     Loopback file systems provide access to existing files using 
     alternate pathnames.  Once a virtual file  system  is  created,
     other file systems can be mounted within it without affecting
     the original file system.

 An example:
 mount -t lo -o ro /real/files /anon/ftp/files
 To check your mount: mount -p
 Then put the new info from mount -p into your /etc/fstab.

I'm looking for ftp _client_ code to hack for my own purposes.  I tried
looking around, but have not had any luck.  Any ideas would be appreciated.
(Sorry about the post here, but it _is_ an "ftp"-type list, eh?).  The code
will be running on SunOS 4.1.3_U1 (primarily).
 
Please do not reply to the list, just to me.
 
Thanks in advance.

I've just installed wu-ftpd-2.4, put a few files in the pub directory,
and enabled anonymous ftp in order to test things out.  Everything is
as I expect it to be except I have enabled command logging for
anonymous users and can't figure out where the commands are being
logged.  The documentation makes me suspect syslog, but only access
denial messages are appearing in the system logs.

Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks,
Rob

Greetings, Rob!

Check the /usr/adm/xferlog - you'll find a neatly organized
log for all ftp accesses.

At least, for SGI IRIX 5.2.....

Hi, all!
	I just finished configuring and installing wu-ftpd last night, and so
far it looks to be _quite_ impressive. I have a question, though...

	In the man page for ftpaccess, under the guestgroup heading, it gives
the following:

          Example:

          in /etc/passwd, the real entry:

          guest1:<passwd>:100:92:Guest Account:/ftp/./incoming:/etc/ftponly

	My question is, what is this 'ftponly' shell, and how should I go
about obtaining/specifying it? Does it merely need to be listed in /etc/group
and the server takes care of the rest, or is there something else I'm missing?

	I have a guest account that I want to be able to access certain files
that are off-limits to standard 'anonymous' users, but I don't want them to be
able to go for a wander through the system. 
	Wu-ftpd takes care of the chroot permissions so they can't cd outside
of /ftp, but what's to stop them from just doing a telnet to the host and
logging in with the account password to get a csh? I assume that's what the
/etc/ftponly is supposed to do, but when I tried that it just denied the
account access whatsoever. 

	Any ideas? 

	Also, for this special account, I've created a directory that's owned
by it and is of the same group name as listed in the (real)/etc/group file.
Neither the passwd nor group entries are currently in the /ftp/etc/[passwd |
group] files, so the directory listings come up like this from an FTP session:

dr-xr-sr-x  3 root     0             512 Jul 22 22:18 bin
dr-xr-sr-x  2 root     0             512 Sep 30  1993 dev
dr-xr-sr-x  2 root     0             512 Sep 30  1993 etc
dr-xr-s---  2 5002     130           512 Jul 27 02:43 eval
dr-xr-sr-x 12 ftp      misc          512 Jul 11 19:25 pub
d-----S---  2 root     0             512 Apr  7 19:14 test
dr-xr-sr-x  3 root     0             512 Sep 30  1993 usr

	Now, since the files are listed in the (real)/etc/[passwd | group]
files, looking at them from an internal account shows the actual account and
group names. 

	Does this matter, other that aesthetically? Should I add them to the
/ftp/etc/[passwd | group] files? Or should I _NOT_ add them? 
	Any help would be appreciated. I'm still awash in all these options!
:)

	Thanks in advance!

Pat

Hi, all!
	I just finished configuring and installing wu-ftpd.  It is
running fine now.  However, I still have a question...

	I edit the ftpaccess file and specify a wellcome for all ftp
users.  The wellcome page works fine for real account.  It doesn't
work for anonymous ftp users.  I double check the ftpaccess to make
sure that it has no error.  But the wellcome page for anonymous ftp
users just doesn't come up!

	I do a captuer of my lofin screen:

My solution was to set their login shell to /bin/false and add /bin/false to
/etc/shells.

You can add them as long as /etc/passwd doesn't include the passwords (ie: 
the password information is kept in the shadow password file).

You would copy it mostly for aesthetic reasons.

Howard,
	It would be my suspicion that wu-ftpd is doing its chroot
	before reading the readme file (with the anonymous login, not
	the real one), therefore it is searching for
	'/opt/local/etc/login.readme' underneath the chrooted anonymous
	ftp directory (according to your fake passwd file,
	'/opt/ftp').  You can quickly fix this by creating yourself a
	mirror of the readme file under
	'/opt/ftp/opt/local/etc/login.readme'.  That's probably the
	most straightforward solution, although it involves making the
	readme file exist in two places at once (revision control
	problems, if you are concerned about such...).  If that doesn't
	work, post again... Good luck.

-My solution was to set their login shell to /bin/false and add /bin/false to
-/etc/shells.
	That did the trick! Thanks! :)

-> 	Also, for this special account, I've created a directory that's owned
-> by it and is of the same group name as listed in the (real)/etc/group file.
-> Neither the passwd nor group entries are currently in the /ftp/etc/[passwd |
-> group] files, so the directory listings come up like this from an FTP session:
->
-> dr-xr-sr-x  3 root     0             512 Jul 22 22:18 bin
-> dr-xr-sr-x  2 root     0             512 Sep 30  1993 dev
-> dr-xr-sr-x  2 root     0             512 Sep 30  1993 etc
-> dr-xr-s---  2 5002     130           512 Jul 27 02:43 eval

-
-You can add them as long as /etc/passwd doesn't include the passwords (ie: 
-the password information is kept in the shadow password file).
-
-You would copy it mostly for aesthetic reasons.
-
-Evan
	Done, and it looks _much_ more aesthetically pleasing, now. :)

	Thanks again!

I have guest account that I would like them to have the ability to
upload files into their home directory.  I had the following problem,

if I specified the upload statement like this:

upload  /home/ftp  /pwrhse/teijin/*      yes      teijin  teijin  0660 dirs

The user could upload files only to subdirectories (i.e. /pwrhse/teijin/<subd>)
but they could not put files into their chdir() directory /pwrhse/teijin.

if I specified the upload statement like this:

upload  /home/ftp  /pwrhse/teijin*      yes      teijin  teijin  0660 dirs

Everything works fine.  Is the problem that the first dirglob is not
matching /pwrhse/teijin/. ??

Hi all,

Platform: Sun Sparc running SunOS 4.1.3

Problem:  Immediately after connecting to wu-ftpd it drops the connection.
          If I telnet to port 21 I get the #220 message, then get a #221
          "Server shutting down" message right away.

I followed the instructions very closely, and did it several times.  Same
thing.  Any ideas?

Mark

I've installed ftpd and everything is working great.  But before I allow
users to upload files, I would like to prompt them for a brief (1 line)
description for each file they are sending.  Does anyone have any 
suggestions for how this might best be done?  I can't see how a user 
would be able to answer any reply I would send.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your response.
I make a change to the ftpaccess file and copy the login.msg file to
/opt/ftp firectory.  However, the wellcome page still DOESN'T come
up during an anonymous ftp.

-------------my ftpaccess file------
message /login.msg                      LOGIN   anonymous        
message /opt/local/etc/login.msg       LOGIN    all      
message .message                        cwd=*
 
Any further hints?

	Would that be a job for the _PATH_EXECPATH directory in /bin/ftp-exec?
Perhaps you could write some sort of script which prompts the user and writes
each answer into a log file of some sort...
	Just general ideas. I'm not sure of the particulars as to how to go
about doing it...

	Hope this helps!

With some effort and a little help from my friends (i.e., fellow
subscribers to this list), I found where command logging is done, and
even changed it to suit my particulars.

Now I find I'm caught betwixt and between.  I would like to do debug
level logging, but only for anonymous users.  If I set the debug
switch (-d), I get everything, including plain-text passwords for
regular users (and that ain't swift).

Anyone know how I can have my cake and eat it too on this one.

Thanks,
Rob

Here's a really wierd one (or at least I think it's really wierd).  I
can connect to my ftp server with Fetch and go in a a regular users
(real id and passwd), and everything is fine.  Go in as anonymous, and
directories don't list.  According to the Fetch logs, a connection for
/bin/ls was established, and according to wu-ftpd's logs (temporarily
running it in debug mode with -d), everything's okay.  But nothing
displays.  I can, however, download a file since I can do CWDs and
RETRs.

Anybody got a clue?

Thanks,
Rob

THANK GOD!  Someone else is having this problem too.  (No offense intended)
I have narrowed the problem down to this:  for some reason fetch needs the
"dir" command which is the equivalent to "ls -al" to list the directories.
I am assuming that you are running Solaris, because dir is a part of SunOS only.

The way I have it figured, since normal users can use ls -al, and the anonymous
ftp user cannot, there must be a library that the anonymous ftp user cannot
find when trying to execute ls -al.  I have tried a bunch of libraries to
~ftp/usr/lib but haven't found the one yet.  If collectively this mail 
group can solve this problem it will indeed be an accomplishment, or at 
least it will get the people in my office off my back about this. :-)

Even though this one has been answered a LOT of times, I'm sending a note 
about it because there's one problem that many people fail to mention as a 
possible problem with this.

First, you must have an ~ftp/usr/lib directory -- Mine looks like this:

dr-xr-xr-x  2 ftp           512 Apr 15 11:30 .
d--x--x--x  3 root          512 Mar 15 21:43 ..
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root        49152 Mar 15 21:43 ld.so
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root         7996 Mar 15 21:43 libc.sa.1.8
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root         8478 Mar 15 21:43 libc.sa.1.8.1
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root       516096 Mar 15 21:43 libc.so.1.8
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root       548864 Mar 15 21:43 libc.so.1.8.1
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root        24576 Mar 15 21:43 libdl.so.1.0

I had this much (plus ~ftp/bin/ls, of course) installed on a system at one
point in time, and ls STILL did not work. After about two hours of angsting,
I found the problem.

ls -also- requres ~ftp/dev/zero. On the system I couldn't get to work, I'd 
simply tar'd up my config here and untar'd it there, and for some reason the
device node didn't come across propperly.

My /dev directory looks like this:

d--x--x--x  2 root          512 Mar 15 21:46 .
drwxr-xr-x  8 root          512 Jul 26 16:53 ..
crw-rw-rw-  1 ftp        3,  12 Apr 15 10:57 zero

You can make the zero node with the command:

mknod ~ftp/dev/zero c 3 12

Once that is all done (bin directory, /usr/lib directory, and /dev directory),
I'll bet it'll work.

Afraid it's SunOS 4.1.2.  Also, I don't understand what difference it
makes between OSs since the ftp daemon is wu-ftpd, and not a Sun
daemon, and Fetch is a Macintosh program.  Am I missing something
blatantly obvious -- wouldn't be the first time today  :-)

Right towards the end of the day and I had another meeting to run off
to, I logged onto one of the standard ftp archives whose address comes
in the address book (right term??) that comes with Fetch.  I think it
was Dartmouth.  Anyway, the banner claimed it was wu-ftpd, and I did
see directories.  Anybody know how they do it.

I'm amazed tar did not barf on you at tar file creation time when it hit
/dev/zero from the old directory.  tar will normally barf (loop?) when it
hits /dev/zero.

1.  It shouldn't be owned by ftp, should be owned by root
2.  It should not be writable by anyone other than the user (root)
(I could anonymous ftp to ftp.lupine.org right now and do a ``del /dev/zero''
 and more than likely wipe it out)

Thanks for the suggestions Pat.  But I'm afraid it's still isn't quite going
to work.  I will probably have to execute an external command anyway, but, 
you see, I have to get a string from the user who isn't realy logged into my 
machine.   If I send a reply to the user asking for a description of the 
file they want to upload, somehow they have to answer it.  The user could be 
using ftp or fetch or who knows what.  They may not be able to send an 
arbitrary line of text down the socket to answer my reply.  (Or maybe there 
is and I just don't know it yet.)  I will probably find some cockamamy way 
of accomplishing the same thing, but I was hoping someone would have an 
elegant solution.  But thanks for trying.  Any more ideas? :-)

I've never had tar had a problem on device nodes, honestly. (At least, I
can't remember it). I think the problem I ran across was I think I put the
archive together with gnutar and took it apart with tar. (I've had simular
strangeness happen under simular circuimstances before).

Very true. I think that one got munged a few months back and I never 
noticed.

SUN ships 4.1.3 with /dev/zero set mode 666 (word writable/readable). I never
saw a reason to change it.

Well, I've turned off delete in my server, so not likely. :) You're right 
about setting the owner, I don't think permissions really matter, as long as
it's not in a directory that's writable by a user (then it can be deleted).

Wow, amazing how we can get off topic.

I am trying to get thid working on AIX 3.2.5.  I have tried mknod
~ftp/dev/zero c 3 12, as suggested by someone whose message I have thrown
out.   Thanks to whoever you are, but unfortunately this did not solve the
problem.  Also, AIX does not have the libraries that is has been suggested
be copied into ftp's directory structure.  So if anyone has any other
suggestions, I would be most grateful to hear them.

Thanks,

Anne

With some effort and a little help from my friends (i.e., fellow
subscribers to this list), I found where command logging is done, and
even changed it to suit my particulars.
_______________________

Could some one post the answer to this question, i.e. where does logging
information end up? I am in a simmalar sittuation and was I was waiting 
for the resolution to this one :-o

Thanks

Now I find I'm caught betwixt and between.  I would like to do debug
level logging, but only for anonymous users.  If I set the debug
switch (-d), I get everything, including plain-text passwords for
regular users (and that ain't swift).

Anyone know how I can have my cake and eat it too on this one.

Thanks,
Rob

Not being able to get dir or ls -l to work with anonymous ftp is probably
*the* most FAQ on this list.  As has been explained on numerous occasions
before, the problem relates to the fact that the ftpd executes a chroot()
system call to the anonymous ftp directory.  Since the ls command on most Unix
systems is dynamically linked, this means that all sorts of problems
occur (ie. files being inaccessible) which prevent ls from being run.  (Note
that the plain `ls' is a command built-in to the ftp server, so this is
unaffected by the chroot).

  To get ls to work with anonymous ftp, you have two choices:
    1. work out the pathnames of all the files required by your system to
       execute ls (eg. libraries, special device files, etc) and copy these
       files to their correct locations within the chroot'd environment
       (eg.  a /dev/zero would need to be created--with mknod NOT cp!--in
       ~ftp/dev/zero);
    2. get hold of/build a statically linked version of ls and place it in
       ~ftp/bin.

  #2 is the solution I adopted: it's a lot neater and easier than messing
around with creating the necessary sub-directories and files, which just
clutter up your anonymous ftp tree.

  Some manufacturers supply static copies of ls.  Ask them if they do.
Otherwise you could get hold of, say, the Free BSD ls source and compile it
yourself, making sure you use static linking.

  Good luck.

I'm trying to get the WU ftpd 2.4 to work on Irix 5.2 (an Indy).
I had to make a bunch of changes to get it to compile (diffs below),
but even then ftp'ing to the machine gives me "connection refused".
Has anyone done this already?

Specific problems I ran into:

1.  <syslog.h> does #include <stdarg.h> if __STDC__ is defined, so
the #include <varargs.h> in ftpd.c fails.  I modernized ftpd.c to use
stdarg.h if __STDC__, and added decls for the varargs functions.  I'm
not sure which header file is most appropriate for them, so I just
picked one that all their callers include.

2.  stdlib.h declares realpath to have a const first argument.  This
seems reasonable, so I added the const.

3.  sys/param.h doesn't define NCARGS, so I gave it a reasonable
    value.

4.  There's no libc.a, only shared versions, so I commented it out of
    the Makefile.sgi.

In the src directory there is a file called config.h.  In that header
file you will find a line that says LOG_DAEMON.  That tells you that
it logs to syslog as a daemon process.  Since my real interest is to
monitor anonymous ftp, I changed it to LOG_LOCAL2, rebuilt the system,
and modified /etc/syslog.conf to route info.local2 to its own log
file.

First, an attempt at humor.

USER 1: I wonder why the car doesn't go when I say gitte-up?
USER 2: That's funny, my horse goes when I push a key in and twist it!

You have to understand that the anonymous ftp environment is different
in a very important way.  And, that difference breaks many things if
you are not careful!

To provide a significant degree of file security, ftpd when running for
an anonymous user runs in a chroot(2) environment.  chroot declares that
a branch of the file tree is the entire file tree as far as any process
running in that environment is concerned and that all file names will be
resolved as if the root of the truncated file tree (the branch) were root
(/) itself.  In particular, this has a significant effect on symbolic links
because it changes the meaning of all absolute symbolic links (ones where
the target path starts with a /) and some relative symbolic links (ones
where the target path does not start with a /), namely those that attempt
to back up beyond the base of the branch using ``too many'' .. references.
It also affects the interpretation of the filenames embedded or implied
in executables with dynamically loaded shared libraries.  Those filenames
are subjected to a similar change in interpretation.  Those libraries must
be copied to the equivalent position under the base of the branch to the
position that they reside in relative to the system root --- symbolic links
can __not__ be used for this purpose --- these must be copies or hard links
if hard links are possible (the anonymous ftp branch base must be in the
same filesystem as where the libraries are currently resident)!

There are system utility programs on most systems that will list the embedded
or implied shared library pathnames used by a particular program.  Determine
the union of those libraries used by the various programs in the anonymous
ftp bin directory and copy those libraries to the proper location.

Computers and computer systems are much easier to use when you understand
how they actually work.

|THANK GOD!  Someone else is having this problem too.  (No offense intended)
|I have narrowed the problem down to this:  for some reason fetch needs the
|"dir" command which is the equivalent to "ls -al" to list the directories.
|I am assuming that you are running Solaris, because dir is a part of SunOS only.

|The way I have it figured, since normal users can use ls -al, and the anonymous
|ftp user cannot, there must be a library that the anonymous ftp user cannot
|find when trying to execute ls -al.  I have tried a bunch of libraries to
|~ftp/usr/lib but haven't found the one yet.  If collectively this mail 
|group can solve this problem it will indeed be an accomplishment, or at 
|least it will get the people in my office off my back about this. :-)

I believe you are correct.  See above.

My ftpconversions file works fine for anonymous users -- compress,
gzip, and GNU tar are all in ~ftp/bin.  But for regular users, GNU tar
and gzip are in /usr/local/bin, which isn't in the PATH that inetd
sets up for ftpd, so GNU tar can't exec gzip if someone ftp's in as
themself and requests a .tar.gz version of a directory.

Perhaps ftpd should have a feature for adding to PATH in the ftpaccess
or ftpconversions file?  I could recompile GNU tar to hardcode a path
to gzip, but I'm not convinced that's the most elegant solution.  It
would be better for things to work out of the box.

I know this is only a small problem.

My shared libraries have different names and reside in different
directories.  Furthermore, my /bin/ls is statically linked (i.e.,
does not use shared libraries).

|I had this much (plus ~ftp/bin/ls, of course) installed on a system at one
|point in time, and ls STILL did not work. After about two hours of angsting,
|I found the problem.

|ls -also- requres ~ftp/dev/zero. On the system I couldn't get to work, I'd 
|simply tar'd up my config here and untar'd it there, and for some reason the
|device node didn't come across propperly.

ls on my system does __not__ require /dev/zero.  But, it appears to require
/dev/log and /dev/console.

|My /dev directory looks like this:

|d--x--x--x  2 root          512 Mar 15 21:46 .
|drwxr-xr-x  8 root          512 Jul 26 16:53 ..
|crw-rw-rw-  1 ftp        3,  12 Apr 15 10:57 zero

|You can make the zero node with the command:

|mknod ~ftp/dev/zero c 3 12

Maybe you can make a proper ~ftp/dev/zero for your environment this way.  In
another environment, this might be a tape drive!

|Once that is all done (bin directory, /usr/lib directory, and /dev directory),
|I'll bet it'll work.

Ls and most of the common routines are also in the gnu fileutils

I found this awkward too when I first looked at WUFTP (some time ago),
I was loath to set up a completely parallel set of directories in the
Anon-FTP area even to put symbolic links in... it didn't seem the
right way of doing things.

Perhaps in a future WUFTP (..or have I missed it?) you can have two
ftpconversions files setting up the conversions for real and anonymous
users separately...

It is not a kludge when it is the proper (and only) way to get shared
libraries to work in a chroot(2) environment.

It is no more a security hole than the original copies in their original
locations.  One must be certain to set the proper permissions and
ownerships on all files and directories.

But, I do agree that it is easily more work to get shared library environments
correct than it is to get statically linked executables correct.

Yes, but you don't really NEED shared libraries to work if all you want
is "ls" to work.

> It is no more a security hole than the original copies in their original

Well, if you assume that the FTP daemon worked exactly as it should and
didn't have any security holes of its own, then you'd be right, but having
shared libraries in anonymous FTP space might make it possible for a hacker
to exploit a security hole in the FTP daemon (and we've already seen several
in WUFTPD) to plant a trojan horse and open the door wider. I would claim
that anything that is accessible to everyone on the Internet is naturally
more of a security hole than the original copies in their original locations.

> But, I do agree that it is easily more work to get shared library environments

That was really the main point. Setting up all the shared libraries and device
files just to get "ls" to work for anonymous FTP users is like killing
a fly with a pile driver.  Now, if you want to run all the ftpconversion
stuff too so that you have at least more executable files in your ~ftp/bin
directory than you do libraries in ~ftp/usr/lib, then maybe the tradeoff
would work the other way.

 Look into the ftpacces file and take banner item to the location of
 a banner page.
 Both real and anonymous will see it.
 To use the message item you have to know that ftpd makes a chroot
 for anonymous users and it can't look to the orign root directory.
 Try:

 message /opt/ftp/.../welcome.msg

 and have an symbolik link in /opt/ftp: ln -s . /opt/ftp

 It's realy small.
 I've made ~/ftp/bin
	   ~/ftp/usr/bin
	   ~/ftp/usr/local/bin  and put all the files on the *right*
 place.
 All works fine.
 Exactly:  System                   FTP
	   /bin/ls		~ftp/bin/ls
	   /usr/bin/compress	~ftp/usr/bin/compress
	   /usr/local/bin/gtar	~ftp/usr/local/bin/gtar
	   /usr/local/bin/gzip	~ftp/usr/local/bin/gzip
 And I need only
  ~ftp/lib/dld.sl
  ~ftp/lib/libc.sl
 And I don't need
  ~ftp/dev/<anything>
 My System (uname -srm): HP-UX rzis1 B.09.00 A 9000/42T

 In the ftpaccess file it calls
 compress	yes              local remote
 gzip            yes             local remote
 tar             yes             local remote
# tar! instead of gtar. I don't know why. But gzip for gzip.

Now a question: In some mails I've seen the commands 'odump' and
                'trace' for other system as HPUX.
		Does anybody know this command for HPUX?

 Mit freundlichen Gruessen

Someone mentioned that there was an ftp sight out there to get a statically
linked version of ls. My mail file got corrupted and I lost the sight.  Could
someone please send me what the sight was again?  Thanks.
