I also installed a statically linked version of GNU-ls in ~/ftp/bin, with the appropriate access permissions (i.e. 711 for ~/ftp/bin, and 111 for ~/ftp/bin/ls). The dir-command returns the content of the working directory or when invoked with a filename as an argument, the long-listing of a existing file. Nevertheless if the file doesn't exist ftpd returns: ftp> dir the_name_of_a_file_which_never_exist 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. 226 Transfer complete. ftp> and not something like "file the_name_of_a_file_which_never_exist not found" before the line starting with `226'. I also tried a dymanical-linked version of ls, after I have copied dld.sl and libc.sl in ~ftp/lib, which showed the same behavior as above. Any ideas?

To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Cc: hoogs@us.oracle.com Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <9502020138.AA19150@prodpyr1.us.oracle.com> Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Hello again, Since Patrick Salsbury (pats@visionware) has pointed out (pithily :-) that apparently no FAQ exists for this list, allow me to offer to build one for us out of the pieces that various people may have lying around. (Why do I have a nagging feeling that I'm getting in WAY over my head?) So... send me your questions (preferably mildly formatted, with pertinent system information), and I shall endeavor to mold something useful for the community. The INSTALL instructions seem to adequately cover building the server "out of the box", so I am disposed to not include those sorts of questions in the FAQ (other than with a pointer those instructions), instead focusing on configuration and day-to-day management issues. I've a fair amount of experience with configuring a number of 'Net packages, but of course each one has its own pet foibles, so bear with me when I ask what seem to be pain- fully obvious questions. Since I myself am new to configuring the server, I shall also take this opportunity to jumpstart the FAQ process, by asking some of my own questions (please pardon my extensive laundry list). In no particular order, here they are: 1) Is the logging facility strictly built on top of "syslog"? (If not, what?) 2) How do I set up the logging facility? Via inetd.conf? (Can I use flags on the line in inetd.conf, a la logging to alternate file locations?) What I am after here, is that I do _not_ want my FTP logs to go into my /var/adm/... logs, for numerous reasons. (I want to keep things separate for disk-space mgmt, as well as ease-of-use reasons, among other things.) 3) Are there alternate statistics-generating cuisinarts that exist? (The stock "xferstats" is fine for me, but my boss isn't interested in data transfer rates, etc. He wants to know Who logged in, Where they're from, What they up/down- loaded, and How Often any particular file (set of files) was downloaded, primarily for tracking purposes as opposed to actual "security" considerations.) 4) Is it possible to restrict _anyonymous_ access to the server to specific user@some.host.dom name identifiers, as well as hostnames (a la ftphosts)? That is, how fine is the security granularity? Can someone supply me with an example of this? (Yes, I've been RTFM-ing ftpaccess(5), but it appears to be a non-trivial task... Anybody got a "recipe"?) What I'm driving at here is, I would like to set up 2 (or 'n') classes of users that login anonymously, with one download priv- ileges only, others with upload privileges (perhaps restricted to specific subdirectories, if possible). 5) How exactly does the password authentication system work? Does it REALLY figure out if I am actually joe@foo.bar.com (even if, say, I'm logged into foo.bar.com as "mike", and su-ed to "joe"?) when it authenticates me? Am I able to lie to the server and claim I'm "robert@bletch.barf.edu", even though I am actually "joe@foo.bar.com"? Since my boss is interested in the server (and I've talked up its security facilities since it's very widely used on the Internet), he's asking some very specific questions that I need to have answers for. 6) When will O'Reilly actually hit a target publication date? Oh, sorry, I forgot that this isn't really the place for rhetorical questions... :-) Again, sorry about the lengthy laundry list. I suspect that these are questions that other people have asked and answered previously, so if you have had occasion to answer one or more of the above, PLEASE write me so I can build up the FAQ in an expeditious manner! (And if you've come across other things you think oughta be included in the FAQ, definitely send them!)

The connection is considered broken when the client does not respond. The keepalive option can be useful when users turn off their machine while it is still connected to a server. The keepalive option is not useful for datagram (UDP) services''. I haven't tried this yet with wu-ftpd, but it sounds like it would do exactly what's required in this case. Adding the tcp_wrappers to wu-ftpd also can provide protection against source routing, and log the real users if identd is running on the connecting system.

We had the same problem until we installed a patch that was posted to this very list last November. I just had to make a couple of very minor changes to the original patch (changed some line numbers and the name of an included filename). We are running SunOS 4.1.3, by the way, and our anonymous ftp server sees quite a bit of WWW browser traffic. Here is the patch, prefixed with the original accompanying message.

A few users, however, need full run of the machine. I have gotten things to "work", but changes to the config files don't always do what I expect. All of my users are set up to 'chroot', and it works well. When I tried to go back and retrofit my few trusted users, they still get 'chrooted'. I have set up several groups in /etc/group like so: ftp1000:*:30:user1,user2,user3,user4.... ftp2000:*:30:user5,user8,user9,user10.... ftp3000:*:30:user23,user24,user25,user26.... (I set up multiple guest groups because of the LARGE number of users I have to deal with. I currently have 10 groups with 100 users each.) All users have the "chrootdir/./cddir" /etc/passwd entry. My ftpaccess file says: guestgroup ftp1000 guestgroup ftp2000 guestgroup ftp3000 My understanding is that simply adding or deleting a particular user from one of the "guestgroups" should toggle his treatment at login. However, when I take a user out of a guestgroup and ftp in as him, I still get 'chrooted'. Can I not have multiple guestgroups ? What am I missing ? Is there some other parameter in ftpaccess that overrides/modifies the guestgroup treatment ? ======================================================================== Stephen Dorsett dorsett.giex@coastalnet.com Wide Area Network Manager, GIEx Corp. 1-800-514-5NET ======================================================================== From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Tue Feb 7 10:55:07 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 m0rbuld-0000EsC; Tue, 7 Feb 95 10:36 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMRMN8YU80000FYB@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 07 Feb 1995 11:59:50 -0500 (CDT) Received: from cheetah.it.wsu.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMRL98BI9S000HW0@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 07 Feb 1995 11:19:11 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from rlewis@localhost) by cheetah.it.wsu.edu (8.6.9/WSUit-1.1) id JAA29998; Tue, 7 Feb 1995 09:22:08 -0800 Date: Tue, 07 Feb 1995 09:22:07 -0800 (PST) From: Ralph Lewis Subject: A little green...

This will prevent them from logging in or doing anything other than just ftp. I think if they are a member of the guestgroup that they will always be chrooted.

It is done by essentially binding specific configuraiton files to the IP address the request came in on. Our customers love this, but now I have one that would like the same capabilities out of ftp. Basically I want ftp.a.com to go to one anonymous dir and ftp.b.com to go to another. I know how to do this in concept by modifying the code, but if someone has already done this it would save me a great deal of time. Do these mods exist?

I picked up this book as well, and it covers all of the main services that you may want to add to your server including ftp, gopher, wais, www, list/mail servers, etc. Here is the blurb from O'Reiley And Associates on this book. If you like it, give them a call and order a copy. It is definitely worth the roughly $30 for the book for what is in it. Mike Stemmler Guelph, Ontario, Canada Managing Internet Information Services By Cricket Liu, Jerry Peek, Russ Jones, Bryan Buus & Adrian Nye 600 pages (est.) ISBN 1-56592-062-7, $29.95 O'Reilly has just released "Managing Internet Information Services: World Wide Web, Gopher, FTP, and More," the first book to provide a thorough description of how to create services for the millions of Internet users. This definitive book discusses why a company or individual would want to offer Internet services, how to select which ones to provide, and in-depth instructions for creating, maintaining, and integrating them. The book includes coverage of Internet servers for World Wide Web, Gopher, FTP, Finger, Telnet, WAIS (Wide Area Information Services), and email services. By using this book as a guide, anyone with a suitable computer and Internet connection can become an Internet Publisher. Services on the Internet allow instant distribution and frequent updates of any kind of information. Companies can provide services to their customers (catalogs, support, news, email communication, and detailed product information) and employees (information distribution to one site or many). Managing Internet Information Services is an invaluable reference for the UNIX system administrator who will build, run, and maintain the service software itself. In addition, parts of the book are designed for the Data Librarian, the person responsible for creating or arranging the information that the service presents. The book helps you divide up the job of running a service. The book describes how to run services and still maintain security of your Internet-connected machines, and how to run services when you or the users of your service have firewall computers protecting internal networks from the Internet.

This definitive book discusses why a > company or individual would want to offer Internet services, how to > select which ones to provide, and in-depth instructions for creating, > maintaining, and integrating them. > The book includes coverage of Internet servers for World Wide Web, > Gopher, FTP, Finger, Telnet, WAIS (Wide Area Information Services), and > email services. By using this book as a guide, anyone with a suitable > computer and Internet connection can become an Internet Publisher. > Services on the Internet allow instant distribution and frequent > updates of any kind of information. Companies can provide services to > their customers (catalogs, support, news, email communication, and > detailed product information) and employees (information distribution > to one site or many). > Managing Internet Information Services is an invaluable reference > for the UNIX system administrator who will build, run, and maintain the > service software itself. In addition, parts of the book are designed > for the Data Librarian, the person responsible for creating or > arranging the information that the service presents. The book helps > you divide up the job of running a service. > The book describes how to run services and still maintain > security of your Internet-connected machines, and how to run > services when you or the users of your service have firewall > computers protecting internal networks from the Internet. > For a taste of the book, check out Russ Jones' article > "Clickable Image Maps" in O'Reilly's gopher or our Resource Center on > the Global Network Navigator.

I am very happy with the product and have found almost everything easy to compile, configure, operate,etc. I do, however, have a problem getting the automatic conversion of files to unix compress format to operate. I have my ftpconversions file set up to allow people to request files in tar, gzip, zip and compress formats. Everything works fine for a "real" user, even compress. For an anonymous user, however, only tar, gzip and zip file conversion work correctly. When an anonymous user requests a file blah as blah.Z the following is displayed on the screen: ftp> get blah.Z 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for /bin/compress. 226 Transfer complete. ftp> The result is a 0 byte file transferred to the anonymous user. However, the conversion to gzip works fine: ftp> get blah.gz 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for /bin/gzip. 226 Transfer complete. 2315 bytes received in 0.2673 seconds (8.458 Kbytes/s) ftp> Both of these operations work successfully for a "real" user (no 0 byte files are xfered). I am aware of the shared library problem that exists on some systems. So, to try and T/S this problem, I copied every lib I could find into /u/ftp/lib & /u/ftp/usr/lib just to see what would happen. No change. The applicable lines in my ftpconversions file are: :.Z: : :/bin/uncompress -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS : : :.Z:/bin/compress -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_COMPRESS:COMPRESS and the perms to /u/ftp/bin/compress are set to 111. My ftp access file has the following lines to allow compression/decompression: compress yes all uncompress yes all Have I overlooked something obvious?

It works fine, but the command "dir" doesn't work. For 'dir' to work on an anonymous connection, you have to have made a copy/link of the ls program (/bin/ls) in the bin/ directory of your ftp account. For instance, if anonymous users home in to /users/ftp, you'll need to create a /users/ftp/bin directory and copy /bin/ls to it. e.g. # mkdir /users/ftp/bin # cp /bin/ls /users/ftp/bin # chmod 111 /users/ftp/bin # chmod 111 /users/ftp/bin/ls The same is true for compress/gzip/tar if you provide such capabilities in your ftpaccess file. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Randy Medd email: randy@telamon.com Telamon, Inc. 492 Ninth Street, Suite 310 voice: 510-987-7700 Oakland, CA 94607 fax: 510-987-7009 ------------------------------------------------------------- From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Thu Feb 9 10:41:20 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 m0rcdj8-0003LXC; Thu, 9 Feb 95 10:36 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMUFH3D3F4000JRK@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 09 Feb 1995 12:12:40 -0500 (CDT) Received: from hamlet.uncg.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMUF31WM4G000LKM@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 09 Feb 1995 11:54:47 -0500 (CDT) Received: from turing.uncg.edu (turing.uncg.edu [152.13.1.101]) by hamlet.uncg.edu (8.6.9/8.6.9) with ESMTP id MAA09054; Thu, 9 Feb 1995 12:57:52 -0500 Received: (krishna@localhost) by turing.uncg.edu (8.6.9/8.6.9) id MAA20863; Thu, 9 Feb 1995 12:58:45 -0500 Date: Thu, 09 Feb 1995 12:58:43 -0500 (EST) From: Krishna Sivalingam Subject: Please remove.

I'm trying for the same capability under HP-UX and have had the same results. On the assumption that there was a problem with my directory structure, I tried an experiment. I replaced my ~ftp/bin/compress with a copy of ~ftp/bin/ls. With this setup, when I try to retrieve foo (from foo.Z), ftpd will fire up a copy of ls instead of compress. Surprise, surprise, it works - what I get is a short 'dir' listing in foo on the client machine. e.g. ftp> _dir_ 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. total 18 drwxr-xr-x 10 root sys 1024 Feb 9 09:08 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root sys 1024 Feb 9 09:08 .. d--x--x--x 2 root sys 1024 Feb 9 09:06 bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root sys 1024 Feb 3 17:09 etc -rw-rw-r-- 1 root sys 654 Feb 9 09:08 foo.Z drwxrwxrwx 2 root sys 1024 Feb 3 16:37 pub 226 Transfer complete. ftp> _get foo_ 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for /bin/compress. 226 Transfer complete. 6 bytes received in 0.03 seconds (0.21 Kbytes/s) ftp> _!_ $ _cat foo_ foo.Z $ This happened because ftpd exec'd /bin/compress -c -d foo.Z, which turned into /bin/ls -c -d foo.Z. If there is no ~ftp/bin/compress at all, I get: ftp> _get foo_ 200 PORT command successful. 550 Local error: conversion program not found. Cannot UNCOMPRESS file. ftp> while when there is a valid compress, I get (like Michael McCollum did): ftp> _get foo_ 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for /bin/compress. 226 Transfer complete. ftp> This evidently has nothing to do with AIX/HP-UX, at least as far as I can tell. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Randy Medd email: randy@telamon.com Telamon, Inc. 492 Ninth Street, Suite 310 voice: 510-987-7700 Oakland, CA 94607 fax: 510-987-7009 ------------------------------------------------------------- From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Thu Feb 9 13:11:15 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 m0rcg5h-0000FRC; Thu, 9 Feb 95 13:07 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMUKU60MZ4000L2Q@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 09 Feb 1995 14:40:07 -0500 (CDT) Received: from nic.hookup.net by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HMUJUFDCV4000JDX@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 09 Feb 1995 14:11:27 -0500 (CDT) Received: from emjhq.UUCP (Uemjhq@localhost) by nic.hookup.net (8.6.9/1.314) with UUCP id PAA17505; Thu, 9 Feb 1995 15:05:01 -0500 Received: from zim by emjhq.emj.ca id aa26686; 9 Feb 95 14:21 EST Received: from emjcs by zim.emj.ca id aa10748; 9 Feb 95 14:36 EST Received: from emjcsdos by emjcs.emj.ca id aa01547; 9 Feb 95 14:32 EST Date: Thu, 09 Feb 1995 14:40:16 -0500 From: "Mike Stemmler, EMJ Open Systems Group Technician" Subject: Re: Please remove.

If you want nis used first and the /etc/passwd, then your passwd line in /etc/nsswitch.conf should be: passwd: nis files I'm not sure how this relates to the issue of shadow passwords however in your question. If you want to add the ftp user, use the command "useradd" which will update the passwd and shadow files appropriately.

You can start your ftpd with the -u option in inetd.conf. /usr/sbin/ftpd -u177. This will result in files being "put" with permissions of 600. Hope This Helps Jason K.

Easier than the compile time option is the "-u" _run_ time option in your inetd.conf file. To get a mask of 0600, specify "-u077" - NO space after the "-u". BTW, there appears to be a bug in ftpd.c concerning the parsing of this value. An octal value is expected, but the digits 0-9 are allowed. Specifying an 8 or 9 would be accepted, but would cause a strange result in the calculation. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Randy Medd email: randy@telamon.com Telamon, Inc. 492 Ninth Street, Suite 310 voice: 510-987-7700 Oakland, CA 94607 fax: 510-987-7009 ------------------------------------------------------------- From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Tue Feb 14 13:36:28 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 m0reUjd-0003OEC; Tue, 14 Feb 95 13:24 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HN1KOR4ASG000OWE@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 14:56:35 -0500 (CDT) Received: from hp425t.telamon.com by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HN1IWZWG9C000NTC@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 13:59:59 -0500 (CDT) Received: by hp425t.telamon.com ($Revision: 1.37.109.15 $/16.2) id AA010733124; Tue, 14 Feb 1995 12:01:56 -0800 Date: Tue, 14 Feb 1995 12:01:56 -0800 From: Randy Medd Subject: Re: upload/umask To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <01HN1IX06WF6000NTC@wunet.wustl.edu> Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT If you change your /etc/inetd.conf file, remember that you need to inform inetd of this, usually via 'inetd -c'.

For ftp, both will have the same effect because ftpd doesn't attempt to set execute permission, but 077 is a much more natural setting to use. You might very well set umask to 077 in /etc/profile, I can't imagine anyone setting it to 177. >If so, it still doesn't work.

If Laura means an existing file is overwritten then this is to be expected; ftpd leaves the existing permissions alone. If she means the permissions are copied from the remote system then I guess it depends on which client is being used.

I have been tracing this problem for more than a week. For somehow the function execv() in popen.c does not work properly. I am still looking for the answer and I think it is something to do with the system library function. It caused the syslog() function fail too. I fixed the problem by replacing the syslog() with the real source code from GNU C library. If you find the answer, please let me know.

Apparently, what I had in ~ftp/bin somehow was not a good copy of ls. I removed it, and did a cp /bin/ls ~ftp/bin and then I chmod'ed it to 111. This fixed the problem. dir and ls -l both now work as they should. I didn't get any replies telling me to do this, BUT, scanning the mailing list archive I keep (all wu-ftpd messages go to a file), I found that someone had mentioned this before.

The same faculty also need ftp access to this machine as themselves. I set up a guest id with password they could distribute as wanted, gave that id a ch'rooted home dir and put the id into group which was given access with the "guestgroup" feature. This worked out fine for the guest id. The problem is that the faculty member also needs ftp access to this machine as a Real user because he has a home dir there for other uses. If I add his userid to the group which is allowed access with guestgroups, when he ftp's in as himself it puts him in a ch'rooted area with no ability to see any files. He does not even see the files visible to the rest of the group. On the other hand, if his own userid is not part of the group, he cannot chgrp the files he is putting in the group's area to the group id. Is there a way around this?

Perhaps it's a matter of ordering in the ftpaccess file? I know that it will match the first class and let them in as that, so perhaps put the "real" user entry before the guest user. Also, if the guest account is set up with a unique name, then they should be able to either FTP in as themselves, or the guest user, with no conflict. I seem to remember something in the O'Reilly book about a command to do something similar to an 'su (non-root)' or 'login' once logged in as anonymous, to get to a private subdir.

You can also grab the source code from GNU and recompile ls with the -static flag, when using GCC, or the -Bstatic flag, for CC. This works without requiring the libraries to be copied. On the other hand the resulting ls binary is larger (you can use strip), so maybe having the libraries in the ~ftp tree is a better idea. ======================================================================= Joe Rosenfeld 219-631-3939 Joseph.S.Rosenfeld.1@nd.edu Director of Law School Computing, University of Notre Dame Law School ======================================================================= From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Fri Feb 17 09:46:44 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 m0rfWlN-0003TJC; Fri, 17 Feb 95 09:46 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HN5JNDH28G000QF6@wunet.wustl.edu>; Fri, 17 Feb 1995 11:04:43 -0500 (CDT) Received: from CATS.UCIS.VILL.EDU by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HN5HBRL0FK000RVA@wunet.wustl.edu>; Fri, 17 Feb 1995 09:57:47 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ming.law.vill.edu [153.104.15.250] by CATS.UCIS.VILL.EDU with SMTP-OpenVMS via TCP/IP; Fri, 17 Feb 1995 11:00 EST Received: by ming.law.vill.edu (5.0/SMI-SVR4) id AA04285; Fri, 17 Feb 1995 11:01:45 -0500 Date: Fri, 17 Feb 1995 11:01:39 -0500 (EST) From: swarna@ming.law.vill.edu (Swarna Chigullapalli) Subject: Re: Unsubscribe In-reply-to: <9502171531.AA05814@ptl.PhaseX.COM> from "David Gray" at Feb 17, 95 07:31:37 am To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: swarna@ming.law.vill.edu, wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <9502171601.AA04285@ming.law.vill.edu> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Content-length: 153 > > Unsubscribe me.

I have been unable to find any information on which shared libraries need to be copied. Also, I'm not sure the correct ls is executed.

I don't remember if the following script came with the wu-ftp program or if I got it later, but if used, it will set up your anonftp area for you. The only thing wrong with it is that it set the permission of the incoming directory incorrectly, so not only couldn't you read what is in there, but a user couldn't put anything there either. It is a big help in getting the area set up from a scratch ftp install. It is set below for 722, I ultimately needed 733. Oh ya, something else. If you recompiled your libc.so with the resolver 2.1+ stuff and you renamed the old versions, be careful, the following script grabbed the wrong version of my stuff and installed it. I hope this is useful for someone. I have no idea who originally wrote it.

It seems as if this is another "feature" of linux. It does have the functions --sort of--. Instead of having vfs* functions, it has fs* funcs.. and the struct name is a little different. Anyway, I have it fixed if anyone would like diffs or something.. BTW, does anyone know how to make diffs like Linus uses in the kernel? where only the changed and surrounding lines are included.

Me too... 8^( Thanks Russell. I should have also included the things I had tried so far. I was fairly brutal with various HUPs, TERMs and program restarts on inetd. (There was only ever the one ftp session I was playing with during any of this, and I made sure it had exited each time I tried a new tack.) Didn't have much luck, so I crossed my fingers and hoped for a system glitch. A reboot didn't help any either. I'm about to recompile with DEBUG defined to see if I can tell where things go bonkers. -- Mark Walker > I daydream about fusing two turbocharged mwalker@eece.unm.edu < Buick V6s into a V12, and stuffing it into University of New Mexico > a chopped-n-dropped 1953 Buick Super...

David Gray gave me the pointer to ftp.novell.de, which I had tried previously. Not to be a quitter, I tried again in the directory he suggested, /pub/unixware. There is was, staring me in the face: the usle directory. Drilling down into the SOURCES subdir, I found what I needed. The tarfile included precompiled binaries. I decided to rebuild the code for a couple reasons. One, I wanted to ensure that it would work on my platform, and two, I discovered that the Makefile.sr4 had debugging on and optimization off, which I reversed. :-) Anyhoo, it works like a charm.

Simply set the upload umask, owner and group properly in ftpaccess. The corresponding line from our ftpaccess looks like this: upload /home2/ftp /incoming yes root ftpusers 0640 nodirs Note that in our setup anonymous ftp has GID ftp, *not* ftpusers.

I added a couple simple command line options to wu-ftpd to allow passing it an alternate configuration file name for ftpaccess, and an alternate /etc/passwd entry for the chroot() on anonymous connections. Now tcpd uses the "twist" option in hosts.allow to invoke wu-ftpd differently based on the IP, by using these different command line options. What would be really nice would be if once could improve the ftpaccess file parsing to handle rules based on IP, either from a command line option passed by tcpd/inetd or from directly determining the IP of the connection. -Mark -- Mark G.

You have to impart info without providing a how-to manual. ;^) In the case of file permissions/ownerships, you can see some of it above. By changing whether a directory is read/write/executable, you change how people can interact with it. By watching the ownership of the actual directories, you can protect the data in it. Briefly: Whoever owns the directory controls the files in it, no matter who the file-owners are. Try this yourself. Create a file owned by root or some other account. (I just did a 'ls > ~pats/filename' as root to redirect a listing into my home dir.) Even though the file is owned by root, I am able to delete it. This is _not_ something you want every anonymous user on your site to have the capability of doing! :) Many things seem to relate to permissions. If you understand who owns what, and what they can and cannot do with/to them, you're well on your way to finding the solution to many problems. For more on security, you can check "Practical Unix Security" and "Computer Security Basics" by O'Reilly, and "Firewalls and Internet Security" (don't remember the author, sorry) for a start. There are also newsgroups and websites out there, and organizations such as CERT.

In this case, people _can_ download everything from incoming but only if they know the exact file names.

The sticky bit will ensure you have to be the owner of the directory or have write permissions to the file to delete it.

I was (re)building wu-ftpd the other day, and was once again *()!ed off at the build/configuration process. It took me a while to realize/remember how it wiped out src/Makefile and other such joys. I was going to spend a little time investigating the inner workings of this beast. So would it be worthwhile doing a reworking of the build process? (Hey its better than doing any real work :-)) Now for some random and incoherent thoughts.... I see few virtues in the present system (type ./build three-letter-code-for-you-os). Along time ago I tried to add 'build irix5' and spent ages figuring out why it would not work! duh! I am very fond of the configuration system that InterNetNews (INN uses). It is fairly simple minded: you alter values in a configuration file of the form: keyvalue e.g., _PATH_CONTROL_BIN/news/lib/bin/control and then run a program to substitute the value of _PATH_CONTROL_BIN in various files (.h, make, man pages, you name it.) The substitution is a bit ugly, but you get used to it. Suitable sample configuration files for common platforms would be provided. I use this approach intensely in one of my projects --- even to the extent of rewriting the subst program as a C++ function so I could use it as a library call! I don't like the GNU autoconf method very much. Sure it is nice for complex packages (emacs, gcc) but I don't know how to drive it and am unkeen to learn. Installing programs in non-standard places is difficult (and I like my programs well off the beaten track. /etc is sacred). Besides which I take the view that if you are not capable of answering a few simple questions about your OS (with suitable hints) then you are in the wrong game. If you are porting to a new/different/strange OS then it becomes that much more difficult. Similiarly, the Perl approach (./Configure ask lots of silly questions, giving cute messages about what Larry Wall thinks about your OS, but not letting you change question #29 without answering them all again) wears out its welcome after a few runs through. Besides metaconfig is even more obtuse than autoconf. Comments and thoughts are welcome, including those that say 'find that missing life'.

I saved some of the collective wisdom of the list, and I could use some of my Copious Spare Time(tm) in this direction.

Running on SVR4 by any chance? Probably need SO_LINGER enabled on the socket so that all data is supposed to be delivered. Otherwise, you may find the kernel discards the last bit of data in an attempt to speed the close() on the socket. I recently posted SVR4 patches to the net to fix, amongst other things, this very problem. Look for this code (around line 1662) in src/ftpd.c: #if defined(M_UNIX) && !defined(_M_UNIX) /* bug in old TCP/IP release */ { struct linger li; li.l_onoff = 1; li.l_linger = 900; if (setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_LINGER, (char *)&li, sizeof(struct linger)) < 0) { syslog(LOG_WARNING, "setsockopt (SO_LINGER): %m"); goto bad; } } #endif This enables SO_LINGER on the data socket.

Unfortunately, 'ls -l' stopped working sometime and I've never been able to figure out why, 'ls' can work, but not 'ls -l'. I'd of thought any instance of 'ls' would need some library routines, even without any flags. Anyway, I installed the statically linked GNU 'ls' and all works fine. The Dell SVR4 v2.2 /bin/ls is 12596 bytes and the statically linked GNU version is 79760. However, the shared libraries are 256000 bytes.

Sounds like the same problem we have, only yours is temporary. Hopefully it stays that way. Additional Info --------------- I'm placing additional syslog calls in the code. Something in the ftpcmd loop seems to be causing errno to indicate "No such file or directory" by the entry to dataconn. This isn't an immediate concern, but does make me wonder why it's happening. I'm just now getting up the nerve to modify ftpcmd.y to find out. I even went so far yesterday morning as to run a separate inetd that only serviced ftp (after shutting ftp off in my boottime inetd). I got the right inetd, but I also still had the 425 problem. I gathered up the virgin code from wuarchive, same problem. I'm using gcc 2.5.7. I get no complaints from the compile. (OH! There's the problem! 8) I disabled the setproctitle (with #undef SETPROCTITLE in src/cinfig.h) code yesterday because it ps -auxww was generating lines so long grep was dropping them from the pipeline. I'm going to scrutinize the protections and configuration files one more time tonight. Tomorrow I'm going to compare with an other local site (SunOS4) and our backups of the partitions involved.

I haven't verified the bugid, but the problem is one that is easily solved by reading the man page for ftpd under Solaris 2.3. The man page describes how several files must exist under ~ftp/dev for ftpd to work. This is true for wu-ftpd, and was indeed the solution to the exact same problem on my system. -Michael Rice University of Houston From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Wed Feb 22 14:22:44 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rhPSB-0003t7C; Wed, 22 Feb 95 14:22 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNCRXBWB80000YZB@wunet.wustl.edu>; Wed, 22 Feb 1995 15:17:39 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNCRU4FTQO0010AU@wunet.wustl.edu>; Wed, 22 Feb 1995 15:14:30 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ccu1.auckland.ac.nz by ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz (PMDF V4.3-7 #2864) id <01HNDVRU85K08X2MI8@ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz>; Thu, 23 Feb 1995 10:17:56 GMT+1300 Received: by ccu1.auckland.ac.nz (931110.SGI/940509) for wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu id AA02868; Thu, 23 Feb 95 10:17:52 +1300 Date: Thu, 23 Feb 1995 10:17:52 +1300 (NDT) From: r.street@auckland.ac.nz (Russell Street) Subject: Re: exiting on signal 11 In-reply-to: from "Derrick J.

I've expeienced your problem before as well. Turned out that I didn't have the correct devices installed for tcp under ~ftp/dev. You should make sure you have the following devices: crw-rw-rw- 1 root systems 11, 42 Jan 3 1994 tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root systems 11, 9 Jan 3 1994 ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root systems 11, 41 Jan 3 1994 udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root systems 13, 12 Jan 3 1994 zero Major/minor device numbers may, of course, vary. Since you apparently had a working ftpd before last weekend, not sure what might have changed.

(The main deviation is a reversion back to the 4.1.3 /usr/include files due to some missing files in U1 release. These missing files effected netdb.h and arpa/init.h, so we went back to the previous releases that didn't call the missing files. This hasn't hurt in the past. Now on building the files using gcc, we get the following errors: (note, there is no vers.o that I can find, and vers.c is a one line file which doesn't have the standard disclaimers found in all the other *.c files.) The build up to this point gave no errors--> Making ftpd. gcc -g -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support -c ftpd.c -o ftpd.o ftpd.c: In function `statcmd': ftpd.c:1972: `typenames' undeclared (first use this function) ftpd.c:1972: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ftpd.c:1972: for each function it appears in.) ftpd.c:1974: `formnames' undeclared (first use this function) ftpd.c:1982: `strunames' undeclared (first use this function) ftpd.c:1982: `modenames' undeclared (first use this function) make: *** [ftpd.o] Error 1 Making ftpcount. gcc -g -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support -o ftpcount ftpcount.c vers.o -lsu pport gcc: vers.o: No such file or directory make: *** [ftpcount] Error 1 Making ftpshut. gcc -g -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support -o ftpshut ftpshut.c vers.o -lsupp ort gcc: vers.o: No such file or directory make: *** [ftpshut] Error 1 Making ckconfig. gcc -g -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support -o ckconfig ckconfig.c ld: /lib/libc.sa.1.9.2: warning: table of contents for archive is out of date; r erun ranlib(1) (While included, the ranlib comment is not an error with the compilation, I simply left it in for completeness.)

On SOlaris 2.3 and Solaris 2.4 (and SVR4 )installations, there have been two very smilar error messages reported and people are confusing one for the other often. The message 425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number Other messages have suggested this is generated by an incomplete anonymous ftp installation (lack of entries for devices ?). There is a similar (but not the same error)...something like: Can't create data socket (1.2.3.4,20): Address already in use. That is a symptom of a TCP/IP sockets bug (bugid 1164519) in Solaris 2.X which shows up rarely at some sites (more often at others) and I had given details in and earlier message a few weeks ago. Patches are available for Solaris 2.3 [ 101318-68 or later ] and under test for Solaris 2.4 (available very soon - will announce on this list). -Mukesh kacker Sun MicroSystems Inc (SunSoft) From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Wed Feb 22 23:30:33 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rhY0M-0003t0C; Wed, 22 Feb 95 23:30 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNDAMFK4GG000XAM@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 23 Feb 1995 00:14:19 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HND9893TCW000V5V@wunet.wustl.edu>; Wed, 22 Feb 1995 23:32:15 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ccu1.auckland.ac.nz by ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz (PMDF V4.3-7 #2864) id <01HNED6B2P5S8WX1FN@ccvcom.auckland.ac.nz>; Thu, 23 Feb 1995 18:35:58 GMT+1300 Received: by ccu1.auckland.ac.nz (931110.SGI/940509) for wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu id AA00105; Thu, 23 Feb 95 18:35:55 +1300 Date: Thu, 23 Feb 1995 18:35:55 +1300 (NDT) From: r.street@auckland.ac.nz (Russell Street) Subject: Re: Strange problem out of the blue In-reply-to: <199502221535.JAA15912@moose.bchs.uh.edu> from "Michael Rice" at Feb 22, 95 09:35:32 am To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <9502230535.AA00105@ccu1.auckland.ac.nz> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Content-length: 490 > > Dr George D M Ross wrote: > > > 425 Can't create data socket (x.x.x.x,20). address already in use > I haven't verified the bugid, but the problem is one that is easily solved by > reading the man page for ftpd under Solaris 2.3.

All I've done in the meantime is to tighten permissions on the ftp directory structure, and change ownerships (mostly to root & wheel), as recommended in the O'Reilly handbook.

I used bin/false since of course this isn't to be a shell >account. An entry in the real password file (/etc/passwd) for the user ftp is needed. The ~ftp/etc/passwd file is only used by programs (eg. ls) that run after the chroot/chdir calls are preformed for the anonymous user (ftp). We have, in both files: ftp:x:123:123:Anonymous ftp account:/usr/ftp:/bin/true You may also need a shadow password entry in /etc/shadow; ours is: ftp:NP::::::: Of course you may recall that our site is busted for anonymous, so you may want to take all this with a grain of salt. 8^) The both group files need entries too. Our /etc/group: ftponly::123: and ~ftp/etc/group: ftp::123: I know this is inconsistent, and I will change it "pretty soon now"; but it is interesting that ftp's ls shows the ftponly gid on long listings.

The Good News: I got another, very simple ftp site up on another Solaris 2.3 box with little effort. It's using some of the files off my backup tape from the first of the month. Very few files were required in ~ftp. See Appendix A, below if you are curious. The other files involved are shared between the systems (on /usr/local/etc). The Bad News: These very same files still have the same old problem on the normal ftp site. I even went so far as to remake the four device files in ~ftp/dev since that was the only remaining unique aspect of the test site. Still didn't work though (the socket call in dataconn() fails with "No such device or address"). Comparing the ownership and modes from the backup didn't turn up any problems. These two systems have equivalent system software (/, /usr, /opt, ...), and share /usr/local (mounted physically on the busted ftp site). I'm beginning to worry (again :) about a system compromise. Hopefully it was just someone here being all thumbs... I'm making md5 runs against the system files on the two systems for comparision purposes.

Moving ftp.h into /usr/include/arpa was exactly the fix needed. I've set up the ftp directories and files as the documentation explains, and everything is moving smoothly except one thing. Anonymous connects are refused using both 'anonymous' and 'ftp'. In the ~ftp/etc/passwd file, there is a user ftp defined. ftp is group nobody, has no password, has its home directory set to the root of ~ftp, and has /bin/false set as its shell (which is one of the shells listed in /etc/shell.) I used bin/false since of course this isn't to be a shell account. The response given at the input of anonymous of ftp for username is: 530 Uesr anonymous access denied. That is about the whole of it. Hopefully there is just something small I missed. (I'm thinking it might be something in the ftpaccess file, but if so, I haven't found it. I used the ftpaccess.heavy example as a basis for what my final ftpaccess file.)

(Actually, the solution is contained herein.) It all boiled down to a bit of gratuitous security enhancement I did a month and a half or so ago. I marked several mountpoints as: nosetuid in /etc/vfstab on our anonymous ftp server. The impact didn't occur until the next reboot about a month later. The Sun man page for ftpd mentions that the partition with ~ftp must *not* be mounted nosetuid. I, of course, read this more than a few times; but each time I just wondered why this would be the case. After all, ftpd is already running with a real uid of 0 by the time the chroot is used to "reanchor" at ~ftp. Well, it's too dang-nabbed bad I just didn't check to see if I was violating the requirement, instead of wondering about the ancestory of the author of the man page (to whom I am now grateful for such detailed workmanship 8^). Note: We mount another partition on /usr/ftp/pub/dist/. This partition is still mounted nosetuid, and it works fine with anonymous ftp. Go figure... Oh well, there went one work week down the tubes.

What difference does it make? nosetuid means you can't exec programs that are setuid from that file system, and have the suid bit take effect AFAIK. It does not affect already running programs AFAIK. Or may be it does. Does it interfer with running programs with different real and effective UIDs on those file systems? Under other UNIX systems (such as IRIX) you can mark a file system as 'nodev': nodev access to character and block special files is disallowed. That would certianly have a LARGE effect on Solaris if existed or is implied by nosuid. There seemed to be someone from Sun lurking around this mailing list. Could I get a clarification? (By private email if you prefer.) > After all, ftpd is already running with a real uid of 0 by the time > the chroot is used to "reanchor" at ~ftp.

Lots of excellent advice is in the 'How to create an Anon FTP' site FAQ that floats around USENET. It was posted to this list sometime. It does cover many OSes, including Solaris 2.3. It did not mention nosetuid on filesystems. Perhaps someone should tell him about it. The Solaris man page also has the advice that ~ftp be OWNED BY FTP! That is real bad news IMHO. And inconsistent with the way the rest of the directories are.

Just before I determined nosetuid was in fact the problem, I had debug code around the chroot/chdir section of the program.

Maybe that's the deal! SunOS5 doesn't have a nodev option on mount (that I could find), but the equivalent could certainly be implied by nosetuid since it's a similar security issue. >There seemed to be someone from Sun lurking around this mailing list. >Could I get a clarification?

I saw this behavior when I was running with a skeletal (read incomplete) ~ftp hierarchy on Solaris 2.3.

I've installed wu-ftp 2.4(2) on aix, and created an anonymous ftp. Downloads work fine, but I've encountered problems with uploads. I've configured everything correctly, and the upload starts ok, but is aborted by the ftpd after about 100K. It is not a disk space/quota problem. 5. ftpwho & ftpcount show a wrong number of users. Actually it seems that the ftpd process stays on although the person starting it has long since ended the session. Any suggestions why the processes stay don't quit when the session ends?

Both address bugs (or what you might choose to call bugs) in the current implementation. The first two chunks patch the UPLOAD code to address a problem that we hit. If you use upload to change the ownership and protect uploaded files _and_ your ftp area happens to be NFSed into the ftp server (as happened to be the case here due to a server move), then uploads won't work at all. The problem is that the current code holds an open file descriptor to the file to be written and then changes the permissions on the file before writing the actual data. This is fine for local files, but NFS checks the permissions on every access and will bomb out if user ftp can no longer write the file. The patch below moves the ownership change to after the reception of the file. However, this introduces another problem in that other ftp users can access and potentially download the new file during the period that it is being written. This is acceptable to us, but may not be to you. A better fix would need more wide ranging changes and possibly running part of the file reception code as root; this may not be better :-) The second fix addresses a clearer problem that was hitting us a lot. We have a fairly busy server and we seemed to be building up ftp processes that weren't going away. Some digging with sps, lsof, and gdb revealed that they were wedging in an accept() call in ftpd which had no timeout arrangement. I suspect that problem is most commonly triggered by people who are using passive ftp clients and misconfigured firewalls so that their connection wasn't making it. I added a timeout so that ftpd goes away if the incoming connection doesn't arrive in swaitmax seconds (defaults to 90 seconds). We still have some problems with ftpds hanging around, but they seem to be in different states. At least some hang around with their tcp connections in CLOSE_WAIT, which may well be some sort of OS bug (SunOS 4.1.3_U1). Ideas welcome?

I am running WUFTDP v2.4 on an IBM RISC6000 AIX. The FTPD works and well I might add, with one minor exception. The upload directives, both disallowing and allowing uploads do not seem to have any effect. I've checked to make sure the ftpaccess file is being used, it is. My upload directives look like the following: upload /u/ftp /test no However, after testing this, an anonymous user can still upload to this directory. I know that I can physically disallow this by setting the permissions and changing the owner, but that defeats the purpose of this directive. Has anyone experienced this situation? Are their any patches or known solutions?

I "solved" that problem by compiling the thing with the utmp and wtmp #defines pointing well away from the system files. Hope this is of some help...

Have a look at the code in src/logwtmp.c . This is the code that puts ftp in last. You could also edit pathnames.h to #undef _PATH_WTMP and then #define it to something like /var/adm/ftpd/ftp-wtmp. That way a 'last' would give last logins and a 'last -f /var/adm/ftpd/ftp-wtmp' would give last ftp logins. Grtx.

You need to install support/ftp.h as /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h (after making a backup, of course). The INSTALL file explains this nicely. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joshua Krage jkrage@scientech.com Network Administrator SCIENTECH, Inc.

Yes, rwxr-x-wx can keep people from reading the directory but that's not always sufficient to keep the directory from being abused. I know of at least one case where a directory set up like that was used for trading pirated software. Apparently the miscreants sent their buddies email with the paths or posted them on bulletin boards. We have the incoming directory set up so that anything placed there is permission 600 owned by root. Even the person who places it there can't read it. If it's something legitimate that we've been warned about ahead of time we move it to the public area and change permissions. Otherwise we delete everthing out of the directory periodically (even though we warn people that they won't be able to access what they put down they try it occasionally). For more frequent private transfers we have a rwx--x--x directory with subdirectory names known only to the people who will be exchanging information (they're not obvious). The subdirectories are writeable. That seems to have worked for us so far. -- Sheryl Coppenger SEAS Computing Facility Staff sheryl@seas.gwu.edu The George Washington University (202) 994-6853 From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Tue Feb 28 15:24:09 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rjbGx-0001imC; Tue, 28 Feb 95 15:24 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNL3EN9YV40012FW@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 14:19:01 -0500 (CDT) Received: from postal.cselt.stet.it by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNL3B4QTJ40010YR@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 14:09:05 -0500 (CDT) Received: from kiss (kiss.cselt.stet.it) by POSTAL.CSELT.STET.IT (PMDF V4.2-15 #4385) id <01HNLDJUGELS001SJ3@POSTAL.CSELT.STET.IT>; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 19:02:26 MET Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 19:03:43 +0100 From: actis@cselt.stet.it (Andrea Actis) Subject: Re: At least log in...

There are a couple of reasons this could happen. The one that just bit me was mounting the ~ftp partition nosetuid. It appears that this also prevents the special device files in ~ftp/dev from being useable. This pairing makes sense from a security perspective, but most of the documentation doesn't indicate this behavior for nosetuid. -- Mark Walker UNM/EECE, 7-3688, mwalker@eece.unm.edu "Trust me, I know what I'm doing." -- Sledge Hammer From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Tue Feb 28 18:55:38 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rjeZb-000473C; Tue, 28 Feb 95 18:55 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNLCJVK7Q8000ZP6@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 18:34:56 -0500 (CDT) Received: from cozumel.picnet.com by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNL84CK9M800115U@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 16:26:23 -0500 (CDT) Received: from localhost (mjardine@localhost) by cozumel.picnet.com (8.6.5/8.6.6) id RAA13635; Tue, 28 Feb 1995 17:28:21 -0500 Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 17:28:20 -0500 (EST) From: Web Builder Subject: Re: At least log in...
