I also found that the ftpd program has no PATH defined, which is a problem if one wants the same executables to be run for both anonymous and real users: the solution we adopted was to add a putenv("PATH=/bin:/bin/ftp-exec") in the source ftpd.c, putting all required executables (gtar, gzip, our FITS converter) in ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec, and adding a soft link /bin/ftp-exec -> ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec Other propositions for the ftpd server: => checking if the BIN mode is on before sending binary files: we hardcoded the extensions (e.g. .Z .gz .dvi .exe .gif ...) which require this mode -- couldn't this feature be coded in some way in ftpaccess file ? => the "ls" and "dir" commands display also files which names start by a . (hidden files). We would prefer such files not being displayed We also wish to avoid displaying files or directories which are protected. We solved this problem here with a few modifications in the ftpd.c file and another "ls" executable, but maybe such features could be more widely desireable ?

Looks good. I was pleased to see that there is this list dedicated to wu-ftpd, to which I just signed up today. One thing I would like to be able to achieve on another system (a Freenet, actually) is to confine users to not just their home directory, but to a subdirectory within called 'work'. This is essential due to the nature of the Freenet setup. Is it as simple as changing the chroot directory from pwd to pwd/work in the ftpd.c source? If it is possible, I guess the only problem will be that it will be imposed on everyone, including system administrators who might want to benefit from being able to ftp into the Freenet but would not want the same restriction. I think it would be nice to have the root directory configurable somewhere...maybe in ftpaccess. It could be applied to users or classes. Suggestions, comments?

The culprits seem to be connecting from serial IP (SLIP or PPP) services. I think they're failing to complete transactions, and leaving the connection in CLOSE_WAIT. During this time we have run the service from 1. RISC Ultrix 4.2a standard issue ftpd 2. Alpha OSF/1 3.0, wu ftpd. 3. Alpha OSF/1 3.0 standard issue ftpd All suffer from some variation on the syndrome. Our Alpha now claims to have allocated 22 Mb for network buffers, and I'm not sure I believe that. There are 231 outstanding connections to port 21, 101 in CLOSE_WAIT. Those CLOSE_WAITers will eventually drop if I kill all the old ftpd sessions, but the reported allocation keeps climbing. Anyone seen anything like it, have any ideas?

Sometimes a cd changes the work directory to "/". But this "/" is *NOT* the chroot'ed home of ftp, it is the 'real' root directory, complete with kernel binaries and etc subdirectory! Has anybody seen this rather alarming effect before or has an idea, how to fix that?

The first one, dumpxfer, takes the /usr/adm/xferlog and prints it out in a more readable format. It breaks the listing up into incoming and outgoing sections with special sections listing incoming transfers to any place other than the incoming directory (shouldn't happen if your setup is correct) and outgoing transfers from the incoming directory (maybe somebody using your incoming directory to transfer 100's of gif's?). The report output is formatted like... b /pub/incoming/cqu_aus/BELMONT.RVC p.rey@cqu.edu.au (138.77.17.160) Where the "b" is either "b" or "a". The address is what the user gave as their password. If they failed to give an "@" sign, it will append the address of where they came from. Finally, the address in parenthesis is the address they came from if it doesn't match what they said it was. The 2nd script is designed to be run by root's cron. It could be run by somebody else, as long as that somebody has write permission to the xferlog file. It copies the current xferlog to a LOGS subdirectory and renames it with todays date. It then truncates the main xferlog. After doing this, it runs dumpxfer (the first script) and redirects its output to a temp file. If the file is > 0 bytes long, it mails it to a user (or users) listed at the top of the script. We have this setup to mail the transfer log to our tech-support staff every morning. That way when a user calls in and complains that "that bug-fix I downloaded didn't even load", tech support can look at the log and say "That's because you downloaded it in ASCII mode. Didn't you read the message that came up when you cd'd into the directory?" We also have users send us data that causes problems in our software package. Ocassionally, one will upload it ASCII and we have to have them upload it again. Sometimes they just put the file in the incoming directory with no indication as to what it is, who sent it or anything. This helps track them down. -- David C.

I didn't want to embark on such a thing if someone was already doing it! Quick question... We are running Solaris 2.3 here and typically ftp daemon(s) require a number of device files to exist in the ftp root directory. I would like to have the ftp root dir exist within AFS however I cannot create a device file in the AFS tree. I guess the question is: Are you addressing this with your port of wu-ftpd?

After some investigation it turned out that ftpd hung in accept. (thanks to lsof and truss). Problem scenario: client sends "PASV" client sends "RETR file" client doesn't open a connection, instead the client aborts. This fix may not be portable, but works for me on Solaris 2.x and probably works on SunOS 4.1.x and BSD derivatives with fd_set typedef'ed as well. Some systes may need to include extra files. The fix is a timeout on accept with select(). The timeout is set to 120 seconds, but I have no idea whether that is sufficient. Please include me in any replies, as I'm not on this list.

It has been a while since I installed this, so I really don't remember the details. The main problem was that you need a /dev/zero in the anonymous ftp file area, but you can't make one in AFS. You have to compile either the ftp daemon or the compression program with the static flag (can't remember which). Compiling a tar program with static wouldn't hurt either. Then you can just plop those binaries in without worrying about /dev/zero. This was on SunOS4.1, but I suspect that it is the same problem. I will be doing this same install hopefully this week, so if I find anything funny I will email you.

Within the guest group hierarchy, as with anonymous ftp, you need a ~/usr/lib directory where reside library files appropriate to your os. For example for Sun running 4.1.x these would be ld.so, libc.so.*. You can copy these from your regular lib directory. To save space you might want to move the files there then use pointers from the regular lib directory to the guest group lib directory. I personally have not done this however. Hope this helps.

I don't have a /dev/directory in my ftp space (which is built in AFS space). Tar, compress and ftp all work well. As I said, though, that was for SunOS. There maybe other issues with Solaris that need to be worked out. I really wanted to give you my experiences because when I had problems incorporating ftp into AFS about two years ago no one else was really doing the two together.

But if ftp in as anonymous, then it works fine in public's incoming dir. A while ago someone posted that lchown should be used instead of fchown, but the OS is OSF/1, I'm running SunOS 4.1.3 here, does that still apply ? In ftpaccess file: guestgroup unixsrc upload /ftphome /unxs/receive yes unxs unixsrc 0660 dirs In /etc/passwd: ftp:***:75:77:ANONYMOUS FTP ACCOUNT,,UNIX,917-2786,719:/ftphome:/bin/ftponly unxsftp:***:76:803:UNXS Customer support anonymous ftp account,,UNIX,917-2786,719:/ftphome/./unxs:/bin/ftponly In /etc/group: unixsrc:*:803:unxsftp /ftphome/unxs's directory has bin/, etc/, dev/, usr/ with necessary libraries installed, just like /ftphome. Another problem is, ftp in as guest unxsftp, with ls command working but not 'dir' command; but ftp in as anonymous then using site specific group command to enable access, and ls and dir commands both work.

For example, the permissions on the ftp home directory become far more important when you consider site exec features. Here is the document I base my ftp configuration on. Following these suggestions will all but elimate mis-configuration problems. Comments welcome. --cut here-- How to set up a Secure Anonymous FTP Site The following is a FAQ on setting up a secure FTP Site. FTP sites are known for much abuse by transferring illegal files. They also open many oppurtunities for intruders to gain access via misconfigured setups. And lastly many versions of ftp servers have had security holes. This FAQ is intended to clean up this abuse by allowing administrators to go through this check list of steps to make sure their FTP is correctly configured and that they are running the most current ftp daemon. This is organized in the following fashion, I am breaking into several parts as follows: Part 1 - General Description of Setting up an "anonymous" ftp server. Part 2 - Setting up a chrooted Secure Anonymous ftp server. Part 3 - OS Specific needed information and suggestions. Part 4 - Where to get other FTP daemons Part 5 - How to Know if your Anonymous FTP Server is secure Part 6 - Archie Part 7 - Acknowledgements. Part 1 - General Description of Setting up an "anonymous" ftp server. How do I setup "anonymous" ftp securely? PLEASE READ ALL NOTES AND WARNINGS!!! 1) Create the user ftp in /etc/passwd. Use a misc group. The user's home directory will be ~ftp where ~ftp is the root you wish anonymous users to see. Creating this user turns on anonymous ftp. Use an invalid password and user shell for better security. The entry in the passwd file should look something like: ftp:*:400:400:Anonymous FTP:/home/ftp:/bin/true 2) Create the home directory ~ftp. Make the directory owned by root (NOT ftp) with the same group as ftp. Thus, owner permissions are for root and group permissions are for the anonymous users. Set the permissions for ~ftp to 555 (read, nowrite, execute). *** Some MAN pages recommend making the ~ftp directory owned by ftp. *** This is a big NO-NO, if you want any type of security on your system. 3) Create the directory ~ftp/bin. This directory is owned by root (group e.g. wheel) with permissions 111 (noread, nowrite, execute). 4) Copy the program ls into ~ftp/bin. ls is owned by root with permissions 111 (noread, nowrite, execute). Any other commands you put in ~ftp/bin should have the same permissions as well. 5) Make the directory ~ftp/etc. This directory is owned by root with permissions 111. 6) Create from scratch the files /etc/passwd and /etc/group in ~ftp/etc. These files should be mode 444. The passwd file should only contain root, daemon, uucp, and ftp. The group file must contain ftp's group. Use your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files as a template for creating passwd and group files going to ~ftp/etc. You may even change the user names in this file, they are used only for 'ls' command. So for example if all files in your ~ftp/pub/linux hierarchy will be maintained by a real user 'balon' with uid=156 you may put linux:*:156:120:Kazik Balon:: in the ~ftp/etc/passwd file (regardless of his real username). Leave only these users who will own files under ftp hierarchy (e.g. root, daemon, ftp...) and definitely remove *ALL* passwords by replacing them with '*' so the entry looks like: root:*:0:0:Ftp maintainer:: ftp:*:400:400: Anonymous ftp:: For more security, you can just remove ~ftp/etc/passwd and ~ftp/etc/group (the effect is that ls -l will not show the directories' group names). Wuarchive ftp daemon (and some others) have some extensions based on the contents of the group/passwd files, so read the appropriate documentation. 7) Make the directory ~ftp/pub. This directory is owned by you and has the same group as ftp with permissions 555. On most systems (like SunOS) you may want to make this directory 2555, ie. set-group-id, in order to create new files with the same group ownership. Files are left here for public distribution. All folders inside ~ftp/pub should have the same permissions as 555. *** Neither the home directory (~ftp) nor any directory below it should be owned by ftp! No files should be owned by ftp either. Modern ftp daemons support all kinds of useful commands, such as chmod, that allow outsiders to undo your careful permission settings. They also have configuration options like the following (WuFTP) to disable them: # all the following default to "yes" for everybody delete no guest,anonymous # delete permission? overwrite no guest,anonymous # overwrite permission? rename no guest,anonymous # rename permission? chmod no anonymous # chmod permission? umask no anonymous # umask permission? 8) If you wish to have a place for anonymous users to leave files, create the directory ~ftp/pub/incoming. This directory is owned by root with permissions 733. Do a 'chmod +t ~ftp/pub/incoming'. The ftp daemon will normally not allow an anonymous user to overwrite an existing file, but a normal user of the system would be able to delete anything. By setting the mode to '1733' you prevent this from happening. In wuftpd you may configure the daemon to create new files with permissions '600' owned by root or any other user. Many times, incoming directories are abused by exchanging pirated and pornographic material. Abusers often create hidden directories there for this purpose. Making the incoming directory unreadable by anonymous ftp helps to some extent. With ordinary ftp severs there is no way to prevent directories being created in incoming. The WUarchive ftp server can limit uploads to certain directories and can restrict characters used in file names like this: # specify the upload directory information upload /var/spool/ftp * no upload /var/spool/ftp /incoming yes ftp staff 0600 nodirs # path filters # path-filter... path-filter anonymous /etc/msgs/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^- path-filter guest /etc/msgs/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^- Suggestion: Create an extra file-system for your ftp-area (or at least for your incoming-area) to prevent a denial-of-service attack by filling your disk with garbage (inside your incoming directory). If you have wuftpd you may want to add some ftp extensions like compression/decompression 'on the fly' or creation of tar files for the directory hierarchies. Get the appropriate sources (gzip, gnutar, compress), compile them and link statically, put in the ~ftp/bin directory and edit the appropriate file containing the definitions of the allowed conversions. /usr/bin/tar is already statically-linked. You may wish to use gnu tar anyway. Gary Mills wrote a small program to support the following: I got compress from ftp.uu.net, in the root directory, I believe, and compiled it. To do tar and compress, I wrote a tiny program called `pipe', and statically-linked it. My /etc/ftpconversions file looks like this: #strip prefix:strip postfix:addon prefix:addon postfix:external command: #types:options:description :.Z: : :/bin/compress -d -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS :-z: : :/bin/compress -d -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS : : :.Z:/bin/compress -c %s:T_REG:O_COMPRESS:COMPRESS : : :.tar:/bin/tar cf - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_TAR:TAR : : :.tar.Z:/bin/pipe /bin/tar cf - %s | /bin/compress -c:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+COMPRESS : : :.tar:/bin/gtar -c -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_TAR:TAR : : :.tar.Z:/bin/gtar -c -Z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+COMPRESS : : :.tar.gz:/bin/gtar -c -z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+GZIP Here it is: -----------------8<-------------cut--------------- /* pipe.c: exec two commands in a pipe */ #define NULL (char *)0 #define MAXA 16 main(argc, argv) int argc; char *argv[]; { char *av1[MAXA], *av2[MAXA]; int i, n, p[2], cpid; i = 0; n = 0; while ( ++i < argc && n < MAXA ) { if ( *argv[i] == '|' && *(argv[i]+1) == '\0' ) break; av1[n++] = argv[i]; } if ( n == 0 ) uexit(); av1[n] = NULL; n = 0; while ( ++i < argc && n < MAXA ) av2[n++] = argv[i]; if ( n == 0 ) uexit(); av2[n] = NULL; if ( pipe(p) != 0 ) exit(1); if ( ( cpid = fork() ) == (-1) ) exit(1); else if ( cpid == 0 ) { (void)close(p[0]); (void)close(1); (void)dup(p[1]); (void)close(p[1]); (void)execv(av1[0], av1); _exit(127); } else { (void)close(p[1]); (void)close(0); (void)dup(p[0]); (void)close(p[0]); (void)execv(av2[0], av2); _exit(127); } /*NOTREACHED*/ } uexit() { (void)write(2, "Usage: pipe | \n", 34); exit(1); } 9) Other things to do: as root: touch ~ftp/.rhosts ~ftp/.forward chmod 400 ~ftp/.rhosts ~ftp/.forward ie. make these files zero-length and owned by root. Due to the last /bin/mail bugs in SunOS: touch /usr/spool/mail/ftp; chmod 400 /usr/spool/mail/ftp Consider an email-alias for the ftp-admin(s) to provide an email-address for problems-reports. If you are mounting some disks from other machines (or even your own) to the ~ftp hierarchy, mount it read-only. The correct entry for the /etc/fstab (on the host with ftpd) is something like: other:/u1/linux /home/ftp/pub/linux nfs ro,noquota,nosuid,intr,bg 1 0 This mounts under /home/ftp/pub/linux the disk from host 'other' with no quota, no 'suid' programs (just in case), interruptible (in case 'other' goes down) and 'bg' - so if 'other' is down when you reboot it will not stop you trying to mount /home/ftp/pub/linux all over again. Part 2 - Setting up a chrooted Secure Anonymous ftp server. This part was contributed by Marcus J Ranum Steps ----- 1) Build a statically linked version of ftpd and put it in ~ftp/bin. Make sure it's owned by root. 2) Build a statically linked version of /bin/ls if you'll need one. Put it in ~ftp/bin. If you are on a Sun, and need to build one, there's a ported version of the BSD net2 ls command for SunOs on ftp.tis.com: pub/firewalls/toolkit/patches/ls.tar.Z Make sure it's owned by root. 3) Chown ~ftp to root and make it mode 755 THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT 4) Set up copies of ~ftp/etc/passwd and ~ftp/etc/group just as you would normally, EXCEPT make 'ftp's home directory '/' -- make sure they are owned by root. 5) Write a wrapper to kick ftpd off and install it in /etc/inetd.conf The wrapper should look something like: (assuming ~ftp = /var/ftp) main() { if(chdir("/var/ftp")) { perror("chdir /var/ftp"); exit(1); } if(chroot("/var/ftp")) { perror("chroot /var/ftp"); exit(1); } /* optional: seteuid(FTPUID); */ execl("/bin/ftpd","ftpd","-l",(char *)0); perror("exec /bin/ftpd"); exit(1); } Options: You can use 'netacl' from the toolkit or tcp_wrappers to achieve the same effect. We use 'netacl' to switch so that a few machines that connect to the FTP service *don't* get chrooted first. This makes transferring files a bit less painful. You may also wish to take your ftpd sources and find all the places where it calls seteuid() and remove them, then have the wrapper do a setuid(ftp) right before the exec. This means that if someone knows a hole that makes them "root" they still won't be. Relax and imagine how frustrated they will be. If you're hacking ftpd sources, I suggest you turn off a bunch of the options in ftpcmd.y by unsetting the "implemented" flag in ftpcmd.y. This is only practical if your FTP area is read-only. 6) As usual, make a pass through the FTP area and make sure that the files are in correct modes and that there's nothing else in there that can be executed. 7) Note, now, that your FTP area's /etc/passwd is totally separated from your real /etc/passwd. This has advantages and disadvantages. 8) Some stuff may break, like syslog, since there is no /dev/log. Either build a version of ftpd with a UDP-based syslog() routine or run a second syslogd based on the BSD Net2 code, that maintains a unix-domain socket named ~ftp/dev/log with the -p flag. REMEMBER: If there is a hole in your ftpd that lets someone get "root" access they can do you some damage even chrooted. It's just lots harder. If you're willing to hack some code, making the ftpd run without permissions is a really good thing. The correct operation of your hacked ftpd can be verified by connecting to it and (while it's still at the user prompt) do a ps-axu and verify that it's not running as root. Part 3 - OS Specific needed information and suggestions. Older SVR2 and SVR3 system, RTU 6.0 (Masscomp, now Concurrent Real Time UNIX), AT&T 3B1 and 3B2 machines - May need dev/tcp: [dev/tcp] These ftpd implementations may require a ~ftp/dev/tcp in order for anonymous ftp to work. You have to create a character special device with the appropriate major and minor device numbers. The appropriate major and minor numbers of ~ftp/dev/tcp are what the major and minor numbers of /dev/tcp are. The ~ftp/dev is a directory and ~ftp/dev/tcp is a character special device. Make them owned and grouped by root. Permissions for ~ftp/dev is root read/write/exec and other & group read and exec. The permissions for ~ftp/dev/tcp is root read/write, other & group read. HPUX [Logging] If you're using HP's native ftpd, the line in /etc/inetd.conf should execute ftpd -l, which does extra logging. SunOS [Libraries] To set up SunOS to use its shared dynamic libraries, follow these steps: 1) Create the directory ~ftp/usr. This directory is owned by root with permissions 555. 2) Create the directory ~ftp/usr/lib. This directory is owned by root with permissions 555. 3) Copy the runtime loader ld.so into ~ftp/usr/lib for use by ls. ld.so is owned by root with permissions 555. 4) Copy the latest version of the shared C library, libc.so.* into ~ftp/usr/lib for use by ls. libc.so.* is owned by root with permissions 555. ***4.1.2(or above) users: you also need to copy /usr/lib/libdl.so.* to ~ftp/lib. 5) Create the directory ~ftp/dev. This directory is owned by root with permissions 111. 6) ~ftp/dev/zero is needed by the runtime loader. Move into the directory ~ftp/dev and create it with the command: mknod zero c 3 12 chown ~ftp/dev/zero to root. Make sure it's readable. ***For novices: WARNING!! Don't try to copy /dev/zero to ~ftp/dev/zero!! This is an endless file of zeroes and it will completely fill your filesystem! 7) If you want to have the local time showing when people connect, create the directory ~ftp/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo and copy /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/localtime 8) If you are bothered by the need for copying your libraries so that you can use Sun's 'ls', which is dynamically linked, you can try to get a statically linked copy of 'ls' instead. The CD-ROM that contains Sun's OS has a statically-linked version of ls. In this case, you can dispense with steps #6-8. Statically linked versions may be available from the following sources: If you want a statically linked "ls" get the GNU fileutils off a archive site near you and statically link it. [Logging] Sun's standard ftpd logs *all* password information. To correct it, install patch: 101640-03 SunOS 4.1.3: in.ftpd logs password info when -d option is used. In /etc/inetd.conf find the line that starts with "ftp". At the end of that line, it should read "in.ftpd". Change that to "in.ftpd -dl". In /etc/syslog.conf, add a line that looks like: daemon.* /var/adm/daemonlog The information can be separated, such as: daemon.info /var/adm/daemon.info daemon.debug /var/adm/daemon.debug daemon.err /var/adm/daemon.err Note that the whitespace between the two columns must include at least one TAB character, not just spaces, or it won't work. Of course your log file could be anything you want. Then, create the logfile (touch /var/adm/daemonlog should do). Finally, restart inetd and syslogd, either individually, or by rebooting the system. You should be good to go. If you do not install the patch, make sure the log file is owned by root and mode 600, as the ftp daemon will log *everything*, including users' passwords. *** You want to make all logs root only readable for security reasons *** If a user mistypes his password for his username, it could be compromised *** if anyone can read the log files. Part 4 - Where to get other FTP daemons Wuarchive FTP 2.4- A secure FTP daemon that allows improved access-control, logging, pre-login banners, and is very configurable: Can be ftp'd from ftp.uu.net in "/networking/ftp/wuarchive-ftpd" directory.

If your ftp daemon has SITE EXEC make sure it is the most current version (ie, Wu-FTP 2.4). In older versions this allows anyone to gain shell via port 21. b) Check to make sure no one can log in and make files or directories in the main directory. If anyone can log in as anonymous FTP and make files such as .rhosts and .forward, instant access is granted to any intruder. c) Check to make sure the main directory is NOT owned by ftp. If it is owned by FTP, an intruder could SITE CHMOD 777 the main directory and then plant files to give him instant access. SITE CHMOD command should be removed because anonymous users do not need any extra priviledges. d) Check to make sure NO files or directories are owned by ftp.

Looks good. I'm glad to see you've filtered out the messages from people trying to unsubscribe by sending the request to the group. :-) I would make one suggestion, though. The message numbers and multiple "Re:"s make the subjects hard to read. (Actually, that's a complaint about this mailing list, not your archive). I have the following lines in my email filter which is written in perl. You might be able to add them into MHonArc somewhere to get it to strip out the extra crud. $_ = $M{'Subject:'} # or however you get the subject out... s/\[[0-9]+\]//g; # strip out message numbers s/R[eE]:.R[eE]:/Re:/g; # Replace multiple "Re:"s with a single one I think these actually came from somebody else on this list. -- David C.

You put it in the passwd entry where you don't want anybody to login other than via ftp. Since /etc/ftponly isn't a valid shell, attempts to login to that account other than via ftp will fail. I suppose you could create an executable which prints a message to standard out saying no logins are permitted on this account if you like.

So I've done following: - Set both /bin and ls to mode 555 user=root group=system (as in faw.uni-ulm.de - a working wu-ftpd) - replaced the ls with gnu static ls version. and got the same result, neither ls nor ls -l did work. It just said 'open ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls'. In fact I replaced the ls with a simple program that output a simple text and created a new file under bin directory, but no new result. No output of text to the ftp client and no file created. So the wu-ftpd did not seem to be able to run the ls at all. Next, I checked the chroot command with: chroot ~ftp /bin/ls and the only respose was: Killed - Does anybody know what the problem is ?

I use tcp-wrapper to do and log the ident protocol on ftp. Ident can be falsified, but FTP isn't going to do any better in figuring out who you really are. This way I have one utility doing all the ident stuff. I am also anticipating using xinetd instead of tcp-wrapper soon, so keeping it modularized may be useful. Some of the people trying to break back into my systems even run wuftpd and/or identd themselves on their home (386 / Linux?) systems, and may even be reading this if their internet access hasn't been completely removed by now. Hi there, wanna be one of The Good Guys now? Also, I've found that FTP servers that tried to figure out who I really was aren't correct. The problems I recall off-hand are related to the fact that they ask for my email address. So maybe MX records need to be considered... Blah, blah, blah, yuck... I figure that anything that can figure out who I am shouldn't require me to type it in just as a torture test of some sort.

Section 6.4 of the same book talks about the xferstats that comes with wuftpd now in the util subdirectory (found mine, which I got two weeks ago or so).

Pay attention to protection and owner and group settings for security reasons; essentially set it up like the anonymous account, but in another directory tree location. You will also need to put either a direct copy of 'ls' or a hard link to 'ls' into a ./bin directory underneath the user's login directory, as well as tar or gzip/compress if you want to allow tar and compress on the fly. You will also need to put a ./etc in the login directory with 'group' and 'passwd' files. This will give you owner and group names on the directory listings. I have bin and etc set up with 0111 protections, owned by the user and user's group; files in bin are also 0111 protection, files in etc are 0444. This means the user cannot see the files, and the files in bin cannot be copied; the files in etc can be copied if the user knows they are there, and the ones that can get into your system illegally will, so don't leave any valid information (passwd, login account, etc) other than the user name laying around in there.

The new ftp.h should be a compatible superset of your existing ftp.h, so you shouldn't have problems with this replacement. Why the sources can't just include their own ftp.h explicitly is quite beyond me. I tried using -nostdinc to gcc to get around having to move ftp.h, but in the end I gave up and copied it into /usr/include/arpa, compiled, and put back the vendor's. I quite agree. There is an easy way, without using "-nostdinc". Adding "-I../support" to the IFLAGS in src/Makefile did the trick without adulterating /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h I sent this in as a bug/misfeature in September. Hope it gets fixed in the next (3.x) release.

I found xinetd on thor.ece.uc.edu a couple weeks ago, but didn't take it too seriously until "Managing Internet Information Services" (Liu, et al) did a chapter on it. Its a reworking of inetd with a number of security features, including tcp_wrapper-like functionality. The book gives mystique.cs.colorado.edu as the master distribution site, which allows anonymous FTP, but lists NO files at all. The site ftp.cs.colorado.edu doesn't have it either. Further investigation indicates that the maintainer graduated. I've sent that person (just now) asking after the status of xinetd, and I'll let y'all know what I find out. -- Perry Wagle, Indiana University Institute for Scientific Computation wagle@indiana.edu From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Tue Jan 24 17:56:11 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.28.1 #10) id m0rWvyc-0003yBC; Tue, 24 Jan 95 16:52 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HM8F2A9JR400094S@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 24 Jan 1995 17:57:01 -0500 (CDT) Received: from moontarz.nuance.com by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HM8EZTXCVK0009F7@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 24 Jan 1995 17:54:46 -0500 (CDT) Received: from mail.cybex.com by moontarz.nuance.com with smtp (Smail3.1.28.1 #1) id m0rWv55-00083UC; Tue, 24 Jan 95 17:55 CST Received: from \\SMTP-GATEWAY\@MAIL by mail.cybex.com with LMSMTP (v0.80) id 00000273, Tue, 24 Jan 95 18:02:20 Date: Tue, 24 Jan 1995 18:01 +0000 From: Paul.Durden@mail.cybex.com Subject: Problem with path-filter To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: Organization: Cybex Corporation X-Mailer: LANMail SMTP Gateway v0.80 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Status: RO Hi, I'm having a problem with my path-filter statement in the ftpaccess file.

But instead of ftping in as anonymous they give an account name. Thus the guest account can be accessed by a select few and these folks are themselves prevented from cding around your disks. It is set up similarily to the anonymous ftp site. However it must be defined within ftpaccess. Ftpaccess.heavy shows this. Hope this helps.

If did get it there, you might look in the INSTALL file (I'm sure you have a million times already) but there is a section that says: to build type build xxx s41 : SunOS 4.1.x (requires acc or gcc 2.3.3 or better) (if you must use gcc 1.4.2, mail me for a patch) Try running "build s41". If you have already, are you running gcc 1.4.2 and need a patch? If you've done all of this already, I'm outta suggestions. Good Luck!!

I have my wu-fu-manchu (wu ftpd vs. 2.4) server up and running on my NeXTSTEP 3.2 system (motorola architecture...). Should I be concerned about the warnings produced by the build that look like this : cc -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -c getusershell.c ../src/config.h:37: warning: could not use precompiled header '/NextDeveloper/Headers/bsd/libc.p', because: ../src/config.h:37: warning: macro 'NULL' redefined, locations of the conflict are: ../src/config.h:37: warning: ../src/config.h:34 ../src/config.h:37: warning: /NextDeveloper/Headers/ansi/m68k/stdtypes.h:7 (within the precompiled header) ../src/config.h:37: warning: macro 'shutdown' defined by ../src/config.h conflicts with precomp ???????????? I went and checked, and it looks to me like every file complains about the same problem... Looking at src/config.h on line 37 .... #define NULL (0) so... does anyone know how to correctly define the NULL variable so the build will happen without generating warnings? It just gives me the willies, though it does build. It works... Am I being anal about this "it's not a clean compile" issue ??? Thanks!

Well I'm having the same problem with Solaris 2.4 NOT running openwin, and there is nothing I can find holding port 20. Regular users are fine, it is only anonymous that has this problem. My message is: 425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): No such file or directory. I don't think this is wu-ftp related, even using the stock in.ftpd has this problem.... It is probably something trivial I've overlooked, and I'll post the answer when I find it. -- John F.

Our 'ftp-anonymous' account works perfect, hwever, thje others which have passwds do > not work, as there is a '*' in the passwd file. What can we d about this? We are running 4.3A Ultrix with Ultrix Enhanced Security switched on. Amongst other things, this means that passwords are effectively shadowed (although they're in the auth ndbm database, not /etc/shadow). I believe there is a build option in wuftp for Ultrix enhanced security (at least, I managed to build it and it works without the problems you mention). I guess it depends on whether you are using enhanced security or real password shadowing (/etc/shadow) as to whether re-building with the proper option will help this situation.

Thanks. try making it: upload /usr/ftp /pub/uploads yes username groupname perms {dirs} where /usr/ftp is the root directory for the anon ftp user. /pub/uploads is the directory the anon user sees yes is because they can upload username and groupname are who any uploaded files will be set as perms are the perms the file will have dirs (if there) means they CAN make directories.

My message is: > > 425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): No such file or directory. > There is one know bug in Solaris 2.4 that affects ftpd (both stock and wu-ftpd) operation. There is patch released for it for Solaris 2.3 but not yet for Solaris 2.4. The bugid is 1164519 if anyone wants to track it. It happens in a rare transient conditions but the effect is very bad on ftpd operation. The symptom is that ftp clients will not be able to establish a new data connection (the existing connections will work fine). and the "Can't create data socket..." error is displayed. [ the symptom above that regular users are able to use but not anonymous is not covered by this bug ] We are currently in the process of developing the 2.4 patch for it and I will announce it on this list when that is available. Too bad that this bug is there but at this point the best we can do is to make a patch available soon and inform you about it. The bug causes a TCP endpoint ends up in a bound state when it should not be. ftpd is the only application affected because it is one of the few applications where client end of a connection has requirement of being bound to a specific port number. The workaround is that the ftpd process that owns that TCP endpoint has to be killed. For busy sites there is no easy way to identify the process(es) that have a particular TCP socket endpoint open so killing all ftpd processes is workaround [ Rebooting accomplishes the same goal ].. Alternatively, looking at "ps -elf | grep ftpd" output and looking for a process running for unusually long time might be another hearistic that can be used to try to kill the right process. We will soon release the patch to end this problem for good and would appreciate your patience until then. -Mukesh Kacker Sun MicroSystems (SunSoft). mukesh.kacker@eng.sun.com From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Thu Jan 26 15:45:33 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.28.1 #10) id m0rXdsT-000484C; Thu, 26 Jan 95 15:45 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMAS55J7HS000AME@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 26 Jan 1995 10:33:01 -0500 (CDT) Received: from uhura.biologie.uni-freiburg.de by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMAQVT9SPC0001IJ@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 26 Jan 1995 09:56:56 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from rensing@localhost) by uhura.biologie.uni-freiburg.de (8.6.9/8.6.9) id PAA22911 for wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu; Thu, 26 Jan 1995 15:46:35 +0100 Date: Thu, 26 Jan 1995 15:46:31 +0100 (MET) From: Stefan Rensing Subject: Re: wu-ftpd 2.4 and system V Release 4 In-reply-to: <8180004*/G=michel/S=colin/O=helios/PRMD=iihe/ADMD=rtt/C=be/@MHS> from "Michel Colin" at Jan 26, 95 03:08:29 pm To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: rensing@uhura.biologie.uni-freiburg.de, wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <199501261446.PAA22911@uhura.biologie.uni-freiburg.de> X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-type: text Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Content-length: 1170 Status: RO > I'm trying to install wu-ftpd on an ICL running system VR4. > After a while the program compile fine but don't work very well > (login, cd works, ls, get, put don't ) > the following error is returned > 425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.

Being use to Solaris 1,x I missed some dynamic libs and /dev files. I guess a similar config should work for other SYSV systems. For the record, the dynamic libs alone didn't change anything, so may acutally not be needed. I tested w/o them and it seems to work fine. I used a statically linked ls (actually dls). A quick read of the new O'Reilly "Managing Internet Information Services" didn't help, they only had the correct instructions for Solaris 1.x. cheers, -- John F.

Thanks a bunch for your help in advance. > > -- > Ye He > he@engins.swarthmore.edu first: please fix your .signature file to include your CORRECT email address. It would make replying to you much easier. There is a man page with wu-ftpd, xferlog.5 that describes the format of the transfer log in detail. If you don't add passwd-check rfc822 enforce to ftpaccess, then the user can just type a "return" to the password prompt to login anonymously. With the above line, the user must type a plausable looking email address. Nothing prevents the user from lying about the email address though. Command logging is normally done via syslog(). Check your build to see what value of FACILITY was used (nominally LOG_DAEMON, I think, although I have used LOG_LOCAL7 in the past). You have to start ftpd with "-l" on the command line, as I recall, and also have an appropriate entry in syslog.conf to direct the logging for the specified facility to a file. WARNING: Do NOT try to put the command log in the same file as the transfer logs. I would expect the messages from wu-ftpd and syslog to partially overwrite each other.

Since we have only a 64kbps line to the internet, I cannot allow for more than 4 users at a given time, and as long as old connections are hanging around, new user cannot log in. > Any ideas? No :-( I suspect AIX 4.1 is broken, because this was never the case before I upgraded from 3.2.5. However, this is no official AIX 4.1 release but the golden beta ...

In pathnames.h you should have listed where you want xferlog to be placed. This file will hold information about transfers *only*. The daemon.info -- which is the file specified in syslog.conf -- will hold all information from the ftpd (and possibly others) daemon. This file should be initially created by touch, unless I remember wrong. At any rate, these are two seperate files. With two seperate entry types.

I've installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on many different UNIX boxes but only have problem on Solaris 2.x platform. I did all those wu-ftpd and SunOS man page told me but I cannot do "tar", ".Z" and "gz" conversions. Because the "ls -l" command works fine for me, I think dynamic library is not the problem. The "ftpconversions" is exactly the same on other platforms. I've installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on two Solaris 2.x machines and they turn out the same problem although their installation directory is not the same. I think many people have installed wu-ftpd on Solaris 2.x and you may already have the answer. Please let me know because I cannot find the FAQ of wu-ftpd anywhere. Another question I have, which is not directly related to wu-ftpd, is that how I can register my FTP site onto archie service. If you know where I can get the answer I will also appreciate your advice.

The problem I am having is that ls and dir do not return any data. I am aware of the effects of the chroot() and the need of ls relative to the home directory, but I can not seem to make it work. Here is some prototypical entries that describe my configuration: :*:xxx:yyy:Guest Customer:/home/ftp/customer//./.:/bin/true I do not want the customer to be able to go up one level, thus the chroot() argument is their home directory and I pass . to the chdir() command. Is this OK? Do I need the .? I have tried both ways and I am still placed in the proper directory. Now, the GID of guest is a unique group in /etc/group and I place this group name as an argument to guestgroup keyword in ftpaccess. In other words, there exists a group with a GID of yyy in /etc/group and I use this name in guestgroup keyword. Is this OK? Should all users have the same GID and I create unique groups that I make guests members of them? (Right now, my /etc/group has no members to them as I use the GID of these groups as the login group of guest account). Symptoms of this are as follows: ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. 226 Transfer complete. ftp> pwd 257 "/" is current directory. ftp> Nothing!
