Even >more so as they run as root! > >Be careful out there... We do have to be careful; even when compiling from source. It wasn't too long ago that the wu-ftpd code contained a trojan horse that had been placed by a {cr,h}acker. This version was pulled and notices were sent out, upon discovery; but many sites were (and may still be) running that version. At this point it would be a very good idea to install md5 and pgp if only for use in verifying packages that use these mechanisms for additional identification/security of the distribution media. (We plan to archive md5 signatures of important files just after from-scratch installations on our systems and to verify them periodically.) One can still ask, "What makes the authentication information any more trustworthty than the packages we download?" This is a pretty good question. I figure that one can at least easily compare the authentication info from several sources to gain a better level of confidence. Beyond that, public-key encryption systems can provide an excellent level of confidence for authentication of any data, including software in any digital format. With such authentication in place, even binaries would be as trustable as the source. I'd still insist on having source for the net-software we I run. My reasons have nothing to do with my opinion of the trustworthiness of the source of the software though. -- Mark Walker UNM/EECE, 7-3688, mwalker@eece.unm.edu "I didn't do it." -- Bart Simpson From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Wed Mar 1 15:13:46 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 m0rjxaR-0003fgC; Wed, 1 Mar 95 15:13 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNMLWV591S0011OI@wunet.wustl.edu>; Wed, 01 Mar 1995 16:13:05 -0500 (CDT) Received: from visionware.com (SIOUX.VISIONWARE.COM) by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNMKI770DS0014IY@wunet.wustl.edu>; Wed, 01 Mar 1995 15:31:58 -0500 (CDT) Received: by visionware.com (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA17576; Wed, 1 Mar 95 13:35:47 PST Date: Wed, 01 Mar 1995 13:35:47 -0800 (PST) From: pats@visionware.com (Patrick Salsbury) Subject: Re: At least log in...

Since I think spreading illegal software via Internet is the biggest misuse of Internet I'm very strict on the incoming dir. This site is very small also, two people fill it. The dir is rwx-wx-wt and owned by user root and group ftp. Files put in there get owned by user root and group daemon and mode 600. Mkdirs are totally disabled. Most other dangerous commands are also forbidden for anonymous users. Files that are in there have to be in there for a reason or else they get deleted. I also wrote a script which mails me a daily report of the ftp site usage, with a detailed listing of the incoming anonymous files (the complete lines from xferlog) and totals of outgoing anonymous files and realuser traffic. It also creates a htmlpage of the traffic (anonymous totals only) and most ftped files. I got bitten once by illegal software via a dotspacetabwhatever subdir in my incoming (previous version of wu-ftpd). Within 36 hours the ftpdisk was filled until it's maximum. The most sad thing was that when I mailed al the admins of domains from which illegal files were transferred I got one or two responses like 'yeah, so what ?'. Sorry about ranting on but that's the idea. If people are interested in the log-analyzing script I'll mail it or mail it to the list.

I haven't got any experience with ultrix 4.3 but that's what causes the same problems with other operating systems. Maybe a static linked and stripped binary of those works better in the ftp area.

[...] Basically what we're looking for is how the industry handles file uploaded to your FTP site and how does and end user access the files....? We're not "industry", but here's how we manage our uploads area: To make sure our FTP filesystem won't get flooded by malicious guests, we keep the /incoming directory in a small filesystem by itself which is mounted into the "real" ftp filesystem. The /incoming directory is monitored for space by a crontab job which deletes files based on age, size and free capacity of the filesystem. Uploads in /incoming get chown'ed and chmod'ed by the server so no anonymous user may overwrite (e.g. implant trojan horses into existing files) or even read the files (this prohibits anonymous sharing of copyrighted software or other nasty things). Directories below /incoming belong to various local users (and files uploaded therein get chown'ed to their account) and thus local users can decide what happens with files in their uploads directory. And there's the crontab job mentioned above monitoring /incoming to make sure nobody forgets to clean their directories. --jc From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Thu Mar 2 07:44:42 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 m0rkD1k-0000DQC; Thu, 2 Mar 95 07:42 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNNLMXAOSW00129C@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 02 Mar 1995 09:15:52 -0500 (CDT) Received: from mickey.netscan.com (199.183.248.11) by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNNHXHQM400011S2@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 02 Mar 1995 07:29:34 -0500 (CDT) Received: from C7B7F84D ([199.183.248.77]) by mickey.netscan.com with SMTP; Thu, 2 Mar 1995 8:36:37 -0500 (EST) Date: Thu, 02 Mar 1995 08:37:42 -0400 From: jeff@netscan.com (jeff garner) Subject: Setup of Specific devices in ~ftp/dev X-Sender: jeff@mickey.netscan.com To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <01HNNHXI0IZM0011S2@wunet.wustl.edu> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Version 2.0.3 Content-type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT How do you setup the needed devices with Solaris 2.3 in the ~ftp/dev directory?

When transferring files or ls'ing, etc, the transfer will never end even though the file has been completely downloaded or the ls has completely listed all files. Sending a C-c usually cures things and gives me a prompt back to let me get on to other things. Files are completely transferred even after C-c'ing, so for some reason, the ftp client just isn't getting the "end" signal or ftpd isn't sending one??? This happens on and off, as well. I believe that it's been strictly isolated to modem slip connections, too. Anybody else getting this sort of behavior? Thanks for any info.

I don't know any way of changing the user ID on a file you deposit (sounds like a gaping security hole if you can! :) ). You can config the access permissions on incoming files so that they're not executable, overwritable, or even readable by "ftp". This prevents people from grabbing them before you've had a chance to check up on the files. Then you just have to scan for new uploads periodically and go in as root to change ownership or access perms. Hope this helps...

My question is: Do you see any problem with using that same host as the anonymous wu-ftpd server? (Financially, this is the most desirable.) Or should I put the anon server on the inside subnet? Or the outside subnet?

For an example see the prototype script in the Sun man page for ftpd: 'man -s 1m ftpd' One must first determine what the major and minor device numbers are for the special device files of interest: 'ls -alL /dev/{zero,tcp,udp,ticotsord}' and then do mknods in ~ftp/dev to match. On my system this went something like: # ls -alL /dev/{zero,tcp,udp,ticotsord} crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 42 Dec 26 1993 /dev/tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 9 Dec 26 1993 /dev/ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 41 Dec 26 1993 /dev/udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 13, 12 Dec 26 1993 /dev/zero # cd ~ftp/dev mknod tcp c 11 42 mknod ticotsord c 11 9 mknod udp c 11 41 mknod zero c 13 12 We actually ran for a couple of years with only tcp and zero, but the Sun man page states all 4 are needed for various purposes so I now use all of them. This same manpage says the device files must be mode 666. I don't know if this really is necessary or not. It makes some of us a bit nervous, but we don't real know if there is a security issue or not. -- 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 Thu Mar 2 23:01:07 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wunet.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rkRFD-0003QxC; Thu, 2 Mar 95 22:53 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNO95P02DC0014LX@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 02 Mar 1995 20:54:43 -0500 (CDT) Received: from webcom.com by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HNO6CI50S0000O23@wunet.wustl.edu>; Thu, 02 Mar 1995 19:08:06 -0500 (CDT) Received: by webcom.com (1.37.109.15/16.2) id AA208003092; Thu, 2 Mar 1995 17:11:33 -0800 Date: Thu, 02 Mar 1995 17:11:32 -0800 (PST) From: Thomas Leavitt Subject: Hung processes/zero length files To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: <01HNO6CIRSLU000O23@wunet.wustl.edu> X-Mailer: Elm [revision: 109.14] Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Please note that all of these users were apparently using a NetCom Netcruiser account to place files on our site.

Yes!, certainly so! I'm also having problems with hang processes, and sometimes even broken uploads. As far as I could determine they don't happen with users using a unix-based ftp client, but happen alot with users using the Mac's Fetch program. Guy.

You don't mention which OS you're running under, but this is almost exactly the problem I had under DEC OSF/1 v2.00b - ls would work in the brief mode, but the DIR and LS -L wouldn't. Reading section #4, item #2, of the INSTALL file finally gave me the only working solution. Get the BINUTILS distribution from a GNU mirror, and compile them as STATIC execuatbles (the INSTALL explains how, but if you have trouble, feel free to ask). Put these in your ~ftp/bin directory, et voila! Everything will work swimmingly. :) =- Blessed Be -= _____________________________________________________________________ :Kevin P.

Possibly because you have the SETPROCTITLE stuff defined. setproctitle works by modifying the argv strings and this fails horribly on SYSV systems, zapping the environment variable strings. One of the ones it gets is the TZ string, so you get times that are out. Changing the appropriate #define to #undef in the config/config.sol should do the trick.

Anything else ? --- Answers --------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Q: What is wu-ftpd itself and this mailing list in particular ? A: Wuarchive-ftpd, more affectionately known as wu-ftpd, is a replacement ftp daemon for Un*x systems developed at Washington University (*.wustl.edu) by Bryan D. O'Connor. wu-ftpd is the most popular ftp daemon on the Internet, used on many anonymous ftp sites all around the world. This mailing list is for discussing problems with maintaining this daemon and ftp-sites where it is used. 2. Q: Where do I get the wu-ftpd ? What is the last version of the daemon? A: The wu-ftpd home is wuarchive.wustl.edu, the exact URL is: ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/unix/wuarchive-ftpd/ This daemon is available in source code and binaries from many other ftp-sites, ask _archie_ where to look for. Current release is 2.4. 3. Q: Is this list archived anywhere ? A: YES. Searchable archive of this mailing list is available at URL http://freeway.oact.hq.nasa.gov/wuarchive.html The page at URL http://freeway.oact.hq.nasa.gov/wuftp.html contains basic questions and answers about wu-ftpd. This archive created and maintained by Judy Pellerin, judy@machina.oact.hq.nasa.gov. Thanks, Judy -- nice work! 4. Q: Is there any books/docs about this daemon and anonymous ftp service at all ? A: YES, the book published by O'Reilly & Associates: 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 The book covers all the main informational services you may want to install on your site: anonymous ftp, WWW, Gopher, WAIS, etc.. To purchase this and many other O'Reilly books on the net, take a look at URL http://www.ora.com/gnn/ . Correct setup of anonymous ftp service is fully described in Anonymous FTP FAQ lists. The one I use is compiled by C. Klaus , and available at URLs : http://iss.net/~iss , ftp://iss.net/pub/faq/. Another source of info about proper anonymous FTP setup is available at URL : ftp://ftp.cert.org/pub/tech_tips/anonymous_ftp. This one maintained by CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team). 5. Q: Why cc complains about strunames, typenames, modenames, ... being undeclared ? A: This error fully explained in INSTALL file in wu-ftpd package. Here are few lines from there: .... INSTALL ...................................................... If cc complains about strunames, typenames, modenames, ... being undefined you need to install support/ftp.h as /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h (always make a backup of the old ftp.h just in case!) and do the build again. The new ftp.h should be a compatible superset of your existing ftp.h, so you shouldn't have problems with this replacement. ................................................................... 6. Q: Why ftpd says "221 Server shutting down. Goodbye." A: Check ftpshut directive in in _ftpaccess_ file. This message usually caused by file referenced in this directive. Just delete the file and everything will work. 7. Q: Why file format conversion doesn't work for me ? A: There could be some reasons for this problem... -- check "tar" and "compress" directives in ftpaccess file; the lines containing these directive should include names of user classes to which you allow using these features. -- check ftpconversions file, path and locations of programs referenced there (gzip, compress, tar, etc..) -- to allow getting the whole directory by "get dir.tar.gz", make sure that you're using GNU tar (all the rest see in anon-ftp FAQ) 8. Q: Anonymous ftp works fine, but real users denied access -- WHY ??? A: Real users' shell must be listed in /etc/shells file. 9. Q: Why ls, dir don't work for me ? What causes error message: "425 Can't build data connection: Connection refused." A: Seems like your platform need shared libraries installed in ~ftp/ tree. Check shared libraries setup, files in /dev, /lib, /usr/lib, /etc. Small advice based on my own experience: if possible, use statically linked binaries -- you won't need to set up libraries, etc.. 10. Q: Anything else ? A: YES! Sure, not all topics are covered in this FAQ, not all problems discussed.. Everybody who uses wu-ftpd, and has suggestions, additions, comments about this FAQ list, please, feel free add them to the file and re-post it to the list or directly to me. I'm not sure than I'll be able to maintain this FAQ list in future, so if there are volunters, it will be great.. :) --- Comments ------------------------------------------------------------ The following questions seem to me "FREQUENTLY ASKED", but since I have no experience with them, I have no answer for them here: - Is wu-ftpd ported to IRIX 5.2 ? Where can I get a copy ?! - "425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,65535): Bad file number" What causes this error message ? (heh.. something wrong with devices, more, I remember there was a patch for Solaris for this problem, but didn't find it in my archives.. :-( - ftpd hangs.. WHY ? (there are some patches suggested, ahh ? ) --- Credits ------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks a lot to: - Judy Pellerin - for maintaining great searchable archive of this mailing list. - Christopher Klaus - for providing anonymous ftp FAQ list. - CERT Coordination Center - for providing documents on proper anonymous ftp setup. --- Me ------------------------------------------------------------------ Who am I ?

So, the files are opened and so is the socket it appears. Maybe a problem with ftpd_popen? Any other ideas? Feel free to try anonymous ftp where I am having the problem at delsoft.cern.ch Thanks, Dave ******************************************************************* This is what has happened since: I have been building ftpd from the US on a machine in Switzerland. On Friday, someone in Switerland rebooted the machine. Since then, the ftpd WORKS!! Can anyone tell me why? It must have required some other system daemon to be restarted ( like YP ) but I don't know. Another fixed symptom: prior to the reboot, while I was having problems, the daemon always registered -1 users logged in. It now accurately measures the number of users logged in. So, I am happy, because it works, but I'd be even happier if someone could tell me what the problem may have been.

To: "Wash U. ftpd" Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Machines: IBM RS/6000 590 & 990 running AIX 3.2.5 I installed wu-ftpd yesterday and I really like the configurability of it, I have some users that I want to be able to log in but only have access to their ~/* subdirs, but be able to telnet in and have access to more through menus. I was able to do this fairly easily. The question I have is, I have not been able to get the ftpconverions to work. I put a copy of gnu tar, gzip, a copy of ls and compress from AIX in the $FTPHOME/bin, set the permissions to --x--x--x, I have a $FTPHOME/lib with libc.a and libcurses.a and everything else as far as the anonymous side is set up just like our AIX version of ftpd. If I try to download my WELCOME message in from the anonymous home using the "get WELCOME.gz" or "get WELCOME.Z" or any other combination from the /etc/ftpconversions it appears to have transferred the file, however I end up with a 0 byte file and I have to quit ftp and type "reset" because it messes up the terminal, I have read every bit of documentation I can find that came with wu-ftpd and everything looks right. Has anyone else ran into this problem? I would really like to get this feature working...

Having built and tested the software, I notice that it does not handle NIS passwd entries, i.e. those starting with a + in /etc/passwd. I know that previously (as at Irix4) we had to include the -lsun library on the compile line to force the "getpw" routines to use the NIS passwd entry. However, I was under the impression that was no longer necessary at IRIX5, in that the NIS entry was returned by the libc library. I have tried adding the -lsun library, as well, but to no avail. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks for putting together a FAQ, Alex! Nice job! :) Here's a question for the list: Just recently, I noticed that trying to access my ftp site via either xmosaic or netscape shows a blank directory, although standard terminal-based FTP connections work. Also curious: Netscape will display my welcome message, but mosaic doesn't. Anyone seen anything like this before?

Q: What is wu-ftpd itself and this mailing list in particular ? A: Wuarchive-ftpd, more affectionately known as wu-ftpd, is a replacement ftp daemon for Un*x systems developed at Washington University (*.wustl.edu) by Bryan D. O'Connor. wu-ftpd is the most popular ftp daemon on the Internet, used on many anonymous ftp sites all around the world. This mailing list is for discussing problems with maintaining this daemon and ftp-sites where it is used. 2. Q: How do I subscribe/unsubscribe ? A: Heh.. Most popular question on this list. When you subscribed to the list, you recieved a welcome message from listserv@wunet.wustl.edu: ... welcome message ..................................................... . . You may leave the list at any time by sending a mail message with a body . of "UNSUBSCRIBE WU-FTPD" to the list server (LISTSERV@wunet.wustl.edu). . ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ... end ................................................................. For more info about mailing list server and its commands, please send mail message with a body of "HELP" to listserv@wunet.wustl.edu. 3. Q: Where do I get the wu-ftpd ? What is the last version of the daemon? A: The wu-ftpd home is wuarchive.wustl.edu, the exact URL is: ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/pub/unix/wuarchive-ftpd/ This daemon is available in source code and binaries from many other ftp-sites, ask _archie_ where to look for. Current release is 2.4. 4. Q: Is this list archived anywhere ? A: YES. Searchable archive of this mailing list is available at URL http://freeway.oact.hq.nasa.gov/wuarchive.html The page at URL http://freeway.oact.hq.nasa.gov/wuftp.html contains basic questions and answers about wu-ftpd. This archive created and maintained by Judy Pellerin, judy@machina.oact.hq.nasa.gov. Thanks, Judy -- nice work! 5. Q: Is there any books/docs about this daemon and anonymous ftp service at all ? A: YES, the book published by O'Reilly & Associates: 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 The book covers all the main informational services you may want to install on your site: anonymous ftp, WWW, Gopher, WAIS, etc.. To purchase this and many other O'Reilly books on the net, take a look at URL http://www.ora.com/gnn/ . Correct setup of anonymous ftp service is fully described in Anonymous FTP FAQ lists. The one I use is compiled by C. Klaus , and available at URLs : http://iss.net/~iss , ftp://iss.net/pub/faq/. Another source of info about proper anonymous FTP setup is available at URL : ftp://ftp.cert.org/pub/tech_tips/anonymous_ftp. This one maintained by CERT (Computer Emergency Response Team). *** There is a shell script which sets the anonymous-ftp area for you. Sure, it's not an AUTOMATIC SETUP OF YOUR SITE, it just makes life easier.. Sorry, I don't know who originally wrote it.

Q: Why cc complains about strunames, typenames, modenames, ... being undeclared ? A: This error fully explained in INSTALL file in wu-ftpd package. Here are few lines from there: ..... INSTALL ........................................................... . . If cc complains about strunames, typenames, modenames, ... being undefined . you need to install support/ftp.h as /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h (always make . a backup of the old ftp.h just in case!) and do the build again. The new . ftp.h should be a compatible superset of your existing ftp.h, so you . shouldn't have problems with this replacement. ......................................................................... 7. Q: Why ftpd says "221 Server shutting down. Goodbye." A: Check ftpshut directive in in _ftpaccess_ file. This message usually caused by file referenced in this directive. Just delete the file and everything will work. 8. Q: Why file format conversion doesn't work for me ? A: There could be some reasons for this problem... -- check "tar" and "compress" directives in ftpaccess file; the lines containing these directive should include names of user classes to which you allow using these features. -- check ftpconversions file, path and locations of programs referenced there (gzip, compress, tar, etc..) -- to allow getting the whole directory by "get dir.tar.gz", make sure that you're using GNU tar (all the rest see in anon-ftp FAQ) 9. Q: Anonymous ftp works fine, but real users denied access -- WHY ??? A: Real users' shell must be listed in /etc/shells file. 10. Q: Why ls, dir don't work for me ? What causes error message: "425 Can't build data connection: Connection refused." A: Seems like your platform need shared libraries installed in ~ftp/ tree. Check shared libraries setup, files in /dev, /lib, /usr/lib, /etc. Small advice based on my own experience: if possible, use statically linked binaries -- you won't need to set up libraries, etc.. 11. Q: ftpd hangs.. Why ? Is there a fix/patch for this problem ? A: YES. Here is the patch from wu-ftpd archives; .... cut here ...................................................... . . To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu . Subject: hanging ftpds fix for wu-ftpd 2.4 . From: Casper Dik . Date: Fri, 25 Nov 1994 15:00:18 +0100 . Reply-To: casper@fwi.uva.nl, wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu . . . The following patch works around a problem with wu-ftpd. . Recently we've seen an increasing number of ftpd's sticking around. . . This scenario has become increasingly common since netscape was released . and from our logs it does look like web-browser connections caused this . problem. . . 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. . .

Is it possible to generate perodical reports ? A: YES! There are two scripts (one of them is actually Perl script), written by Dave Williss which do this job for you. Here's short descrpition: The following two scripts are useful for processing the xferlog produced by the wuftp FTP server. dumpxfer - processes the xferlog and gives more humanly readable output processlog - Script to run dumpxfer, email you the output and trun- cate the log. To use these, you need Perl. If your Perl is not /usr/local/bin/perl, you'll have to change the first line of dumpxfer. processlog is an sh script. There's some configuration to be done at the beginning of each script too. Look at the scripts for details. These scripts are available via anonymous ftp at URL: ftp://tnt.microimages.com/tools/ 13. Q: Anything else ? A: YES! Sure, not all topics are covered in this FAQ, not all problems discussed.. Everybody who uses wu-ftpd, and has suggestions, additions, comments about this FAQ list, please, feel free add them to the file and re-post it to the list or directly to me. I'm not sure than I'll be able to maintain this FAQ list in future, so if there are volunters, it will be great.. :) *** This FAQ list, and all scripts referenced here I put to our dept. *** ftp server, at URL ftp://ftp.cs.bgu.ac.il/pub/wu-ftpd/ . --- Comments ------------------------------------------------------------ The following questions seem to me "FREQUENTLY ASKED", but since I have no experience with them, I have no answer for them here: - Is wu-ftpd ported to IRIX 5.2 ? Where can I get a copy ?! - "425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,65535): Bad file number" What causes this error message ?

Yes, I guess Mosaic just suppresses all the messages printed by ftp server, and Netscape is smarter -- it distinguishes between those messages and prints welcome message, and CWD messages.

I have just managed to solve the problem, after seeing other messages & the FAQ from the list about /etc/shells. It is not, in fact, a NIS problem, but simply the problem that /bin/tcsh was not in /etc/shells. I made the mistake of assuming that it was a NIS problem, as all full entries in the passwd file have csh as their shell, whereas all + entries have tcsh as their shell (there is a reason why this is the case).

However, the're a little old. The ones at MicroImages.com have been cleaned up a bit and now have comments at the beginning listing my email address and when it was last modified. There was also another script called xferstats for producing stats that somebody posted to the wu-ftpd list. I don't remember who posted it though and there's no comment telling who. If whoever that was would provide a copy (or better yet, a URL) to whoever takes over the FAQ, I think it should be listed. I have also unsubscribed to the list just to see if it can really be done. I just got the confermation message. We'll see if I still get mail from here or if my request got forwarded to the list. -- David C.

Also as a side note, I'm using the O'Reilly "Managing Internet Information Services" (which has helped greatly) but I think it might have a typo. When it gives an example of the path-filter command it sez "path-filter anonymous /path/message ^[-A-Za-z0-9._]*$ ^. ^- " I think this should have the " ^. " read " ^/. ".

I don't think those connections are actually doing very much, but they are probably generating a little network traffic as your end desperately tries to close down the connection. The solution could depend on your OS... I think for SunOS there is a little program that tweaks the right thing in kernel memory to move the connection onto the next stage and lets the close complete. Try asking on your OS's newsgroup as it is not a problem specific to the FTPD, AFAIK.

Or should I put the anon server on the inside > subnet? Or the outside subnet? Thanks is advace. "It depends on what you are trying to do" (famous last words of firewalls, those) One school of thought goes: If you are trying to protect your internal network from the Internet, then it is a bad thing. You should try to aim to keep your firewall machine as clean as simple as possible. Running complex programs like an FTPD or HHTPD directly on the machine runs counter to that. Putting the real archive somewhere on the inside of your network and running a 'plug-gw' program that makes it transparently accessable from the outside via your SOCKS host would be the way to go. If you can live with the (potential) risks of having the server on your firewall machine then the two work happily together on the same server. We run our FTPD on our SOCKS server happily, and have firewalls made with packet filtering routers. We are also a University, so there is as much danger from "inside" as there is from "outside" :-( :-( Probably a bad idea to have the FTP machine outside your firewall. Read the Cheswick and Bellovin book (Internet Security: Repelling the Wiley Hacker) and subscribe to the Firewalls mailing list would be a good way to find out more about this. Hope this is of some help...

I am able to ftp to the site I have set up, but it appears that the 'dir' and 'ls -l' commands do not function properly. When I issue a 'ls', the server returns: 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. bin etc pub incoming universe 226 Transfer complete. When I ussue a 'ls -l' from the client system, the server returns: 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. 226 Transfer complete. When I issue a 'dir' from the client system, the server returns: 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls. 226 Transfer complete. Do I have something mis-configured (Probably!). Any hints from those in the know? Thanks in advance for your help. I owe you one... -------------------------------------------------------------------- Brad Christensen | The opinions expressed are Manager, IUPUI Campus Services Support | my own, or those I have 1830 W 16th St | stolen from others.

The man page for ftpaccess(5) that comes with the wu-ftpd 2.4 distribution is also in error, as it ommits the forward-slash from its example. The example, as provided in ftpaccess(5), is: path-filter anonymous /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9._]*$ ^. ^- The example is doc/examples/ftpaccess.heavy has the correct examples: path-filter anonymous /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^- path-filter guest /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^- I would guess O'Reilly read right from the man page... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joshua Krage jkrage@scientech.com Network Administrator SCIENTECH, Inc.

Yup. Sounds just like my (old) problem with the same type of system. You're missing the /lib/libc.a and /lib/libcurses.a libraries in your FTP area. That and/or you're missing the /bin/ls command. Read the AIX man or Info page on ftpd or run the /usr/lpp/tcpip/samples/anon.ftp script (with suitable modifications) for more details. You also need (according to the man page) a /usr/lpp/msg/nls hierarchy, which contains the ls.cat file for ls error messages. It would be nice for the installation notes to include mention of stuff like this (check the vendors man pages, etc.). Or failing that, the FAQ at the least... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joshua Krage jkrage@scientech.com Network Administrator SCIENTECH, Inc.

I built a version of wu-ftpd 2.4 on ftp.math.utah.edu with debug symbols enabled, and tracked down the problem with failure of passive mode connections. A debug session showed that when passive() in ftpd.c was entered, the code pdata = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (pdata < 0) { perror_reply(425, "Can't open passive connection"); return; } got pdata = -1 on return, which resulted in the passive connection being refused. Examination of errno showed that it was set to 13 (EACCESS). We checked the protections of the directory ~ftp/dev, and compared with those of /dev. That was the problem: on Sun Solaris 2.3, /dev has these files needed by ftpd: crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 42 Aug 22 1994 /dev/tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 9 Aug 22 1994 /dev/ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 41 Aug 22 1994 /dev/udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 13, 12 Aug 22 1994 /dev/zero while ~ftp/dev had crw-rw-r-- 1 root other 11, 42 Aug 30 1994 tcp crw-rw-r-- 1 root other 11, 9 Aug 30 1994 ticotsord crw-rw-r-- 1 root other 11, 41 Aug 30 1994 udp crw-rw-r-- 1 root other 13, 12 Aug 30 1994 zero Notice that these are lacking world write access. Once we did a "chmod a+w ~ftp/dev/*", the problem was fixed, and passive mode connections to ftp services on ftp.math.utah.edu are now available: % ftp ftp.math.utah.edu ... ftp>quote pasv 227 Entering Passive Mode (128,110,198,34,207,218) I don't know why our ~ftp/dev files were missing world write access, but perhaps this message will spur readers of this list to check that passive mode is permitted by their ftpd instalations. ======================================================================== Nelson H.

Look for any shared library needed on your platform, probably under ~ftp/usr/lib because ls is do internally by the wu-ftpd daemon otherwise "ls -l" or DIR is do by calling external command "ls", also look for the ls binary in your ~ftp/bin. Look also on the man page of standard FTP daemon, normally on it is specify the needed file executable and library needed in ftp hierarchy.

The files haven't changed in months, but suddenly, things don't show up. I figured I'd try to compile the recommended 'static binaries' but I'm unsure of just how to do that. Is this part of the 'binutils' package from prep.ai.mit.edu, or am I barking up the wrong tree? How do I go about doing a static compile? I've checked the new FAQ, which recommends it, but doesn't give pointers, and I see nothing in the various readmes. ...starting to phreak out...

I'm assuming you > really meant to say "ommits the backslash from its". Yup, I should have said backslash. I also should have said "...guess O'Reilly read _straight_ from the man page..." Basicly, both O'Reilly and the man page are wrong. According to my recent foray into regexp patterns: The expression ^\. (caret backslash dot) matches a character of '.' ^. (caret dot) matches any single-character (all matches at the beginning of the string, since the caret is used) An ftpaccess file with ^. would end up preventing uploads (since any character would be matched). An ftpaccess file with ^\. would end up preventing uploads with a '.' at the front of the filename. And just to make sure, I tested both path-filters. Use ^\. (caret backslash dot) for your path-filter. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joshua Krage jkrage@scientech.com Network Administrator SCIENTECH, Inc.

I do have one problem, though. When an anonymous user places a file in the /incoming directory, according to the upload control in the ftpaccess file, it should be changed to owner root and group other with permission of 0600. That isn't happening. I have the sticky bit set on the incoming directory as well, so no one can see the files. However, the upload access setting should prevent anyone from specifying a file by name and downloading it after it is in the incoming directory. That isn't happening. Here's the relevant line from my ftpaccess file: upload /users/ftp /incoming yes root other 0600 nodirs here's what an ls -l looks like in ~ftp/incoming: total 24 -rw-rw-r-- 1 ftp ftp 11951 Mar 9 15:01 zeus.jpg As you can see, it still belongs to the ftp user. Anyone got any suggestions out there? I also have some additional suggestions for the /dev and /usr/lib directories under Solaris 2.3. I had to do a little bit more than specified in the O'Reilly book or in the wu-ftpd INSTALL pages (luckily, I found the stuff in the online man pages for ftpd). If anyone would like to see how I've got my /dev and /usr/lib directories set up, let me know, and I will post. -- Tommy Williams mailto:tommy@dbmi6000.mc.vanderbilt.edu Go, go, go, said the bird: human kind / Cannot bear very much reality.

That isn't happening. I have the sticky bit set on the incoming I'm having similar problems. My upload controls don't seem to be working at all. I've restricted uploads and mkdir's to my /incoming directory: upload /tempest/home/ftp * no upload /tempest/home/ftp /pub no upload /tempest/home/ftp /incoming/* yes ftp root 0644 nodirs ...and yet users can create subdirectories in /incoming. In fact, they can create subdirectories anywhere they choose, (e.g., /pub) if the permissions are set to 777, regardless of the directives in the ftpaccess file. The /incoming and /pub directories are owned by root. I seem to remember having a similar problem a year or so ago, and the answer was, "Oh, the 'upload' commands don't work yet...they're documented as working, but they don't work yet." I think that was a version or two back, though. Anyone have any ideas? I'm running SunOS 4.1.3 on a Sparc 2. wu-ftpd v2.4.

It does send the files, but no conversions are getting done. Other people having problems appear to get 0 length files, but I'm just not getting the conversion. I have run ckconfig and that seems to find the relevant files. I have tried running odump -DL on the files to check for any missing libraries, but the only one needed appears to be libc.so.1, which is in the ~ftp/lib directory along with rld.

If you are using gcc, then you will want to do ./configure --your-favourite-arguments edit the makefiles in lib and src to add the -static option to the definition of CC. In src/Makefile you need to add to the end of the LIBS definition dl.o and create a file called dl.c containing dlclose() { abort() ; } dlsym() { abort() ; } dlopen() { abort() ; } compile dl.c with gcc -c dl.c and put the .o file into the src directory (I can't be bothered hitting the makefile to do this automatically) then type make this should build the binaries staticly. To check... $ ldd src/ls ldd: src/ls: file is not a dynamic executable or shared object $ file src/ls src/ls: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, statically linked, not stripped and # chroot `pwd`/src ./ls should work. You should also make a mental note to bitch-n-moan to Sun about not being able to build static binaries "easily". Hope this is of some help...

As a ref to my problems, I did have to work some of the compile issues with ftw.c - function chwalk, conflicting types for malloc - previous declaration for malloc in /usr/include/stdlib.h, as well as realpath.c - conflicting types for realpath prior to a "compile". After I setup wu-ftpd, I could ftp from one of our local machines, and "ls", "cd", but right after I would "get xxxx", the server would disconnect ! All seemed to work ok, until you "get" a file, then the ftp session would end (The file did transfer too). I saved the ftpd exec and tried to re-compile, look at the setup etc..., but now no matter what, when I ftp the box, I get: xxx FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1)... Name (xx.xx.xx.xx:yyyyy): _ but as soon as I type in "anonymous, or one of the (true) real user names" at the prompt, the prompt comes back with: xxx Server shutting down. Goodbye I did run ckconfig to verify all ftpaccess etc.. files were where they were supposed to be...and the utility programs seem to run fine (ftpcount, ftpwho) - But I don't know exactly what to do next ? Or what I have hosed up ! I have put inetd in the debug and log mode "ined -dl", which will display the following when I try to ftp from on of our "local" machines: someone wants ftp Accept, ctrl 3 170 execl /usr/local/etc/ftpd 170 reaped, status 0 The ftpaccess, ftphosts etc. are un-modified from the examples directory. I have also been through the O'Reilly "Managing Internet" book SEVERAL times (good book BTW) in the chapter WU Archive chapter...but I just don't know what is wrong (file configuration or compile problems was my best guess). I would appreciate any help or insight - Thanks, Jim jamest@innet.com From wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Sun Mar 12 10:34:59 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 m0rnsBH-0003rNC; Sun, 12 Mar 95 10:15 PST Received: from reprocess.wunet.wustl.edu by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HO1Q896BV4001A2J@wunet.wustl.edu>; Sun, 12 Mar 1995 11:58:13 -0500 (CDT) Received: from morra.et.tudelft.nl by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HO1PPJ354W0018DY@wunet.wustl.edu>; Sun, 12 Mar 1995 11:43:18 -0500 (CDT) Received: by morra.et.tudelft.nl (1.37.109.8/16.2) id AA05526; Sun, 12 Mar 1995 18:48:12 +0100 Date: Sun, 12 Mar 1995 18:48:10 +0200 (METDST) From: Maarten Boekhold Subject: wu-ftpd stopped working To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Hi, Well, I decided I had to sign up again. I'm having the weirdest problem now.. I had set up wu-ftpd 2.4 on my machine (sparc-station 20, solaris2.3, later 2.4) and it worked just fine (though there wasn't any usefull info on it yet :-). However, now it just stopped working!?! The only thing I ca get out of it is: USER boekhold: No control connection for command (9): Bad file number Login failed. I can't get any more info, since I still haven't got syslogging working here (with wu-ftpd I mean). Anybody got a clue as what might be wrong???

I'd like to setup a couple of users that have access to different files than the anonymous users. However, I don't want these users traversing our entire filesystem. I believe I can do this using the autogroup capability, however I am having a hard time implementing it. Is it possible that I did not compile this capablility into my daemon?

Unfortunately, there is no 'official' FAQ. If you are having problems in setting up anonymous ftp, and not specifically with wu-ftpd, then I'd suggest reading the man pages, or there is a FAQ on setting up anon FTP servers. On the other hand, if you know it's wu-ftpd that you're having probs with, then all I can recommend is to look through the docs, which are just man pages also. # # Thanks, Argon # # ______________________________________________________________________________ # Lord Argon the Paladin | # | "if you live for the present, # argon@starburst.umd.edu | tomorrow will take care of its self" # | # ____________________________________|_________________________________________ # # -- Andy Kumeda -- Consultant V-mail: 714.343.5272 InteleNet Communications, Inc.

Ok, there is no official FAQ maintained by wu-ftpd authors, but I tried to compile one and it's available on our dept. ftp site..

To: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Errors-to: wu-ftpd-errors@wunet.wustl.edu Reply-to: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I seem to have a major problem with wuftpd version wu-2.4, in that if a specific sequence of steps is taken, the user's password is logged to /var/adm/messages and to the screen. This is happening under SunOS 4.1.3 with shadow passwords. I _cannot_ duplicate this behavior under SunOS 4.1.3_U1 without the shadow passwords. The steps that cause this are as follows: - There is an initial failed login by some "non-allowed" user. - Then, while still connected, the command: "user realuser" is entered. (where "realuser" is a user in one of the guestgroups.) - The password is then entered, and the user is allowed in. However, the user's password is displayed in /var/adm/messages and to the console in the "User XXXXXXXX logged in." message. (where "XXXXXXXX" is the user's password instead of their userid.) I've included the output of this session at the bottom of this message, in the hopes that it might prove useful. I'm stumped without digging through the code, which I'd prefer not to do. Has anyone else experienced this behavior?

No, actually, I'm on SunOS 4.1.3, but it has 'ldd' too. -If you are using gcc, then you will want to do - ./configure --your-favourite-arguments - -edit the makefiles in lib and src to add the -static option to the -definition of CC.

I passed a '-static' CFLAG to gcc on the command line in the makefile. Seemed to compile ok with '-static' showing up in the ouput lines, but doesn't seem to have taken. -In src/Makefile you need to add to the end of the LIBS definition - dl.o -and create a file called dl.c containing - - dlclose() { abort() ; } - dlsym() { abort() ; } - dlopen() { abort() ; } - -compile dl.c with - gcc -c dl.c -and put the .o file into the src directory -(I can't be bothered hitting the makefile to do this automatically) -then type - make - -this should build the binaries staticly. - -To check... - $ ldd src/ls - ldd: src/ls: file is not a dynamic executable or shared object - - $ file src/ls - src/ls: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, statically linked, not stripped - -and - # chroot `pwd`/src ./ls - -should work. - -You should also make a mental note to bitch-n-moan to Sun about not -being able to build static binaries "easily". - -Hope this is of some help... -Russell - Hmm.

Everything went great and the server seems to be working well, except for one quirk. When I log in as an anonymous user, I can't get compressed files using the ".Z" extension. I *can* get gzip'd files, and compress works when I log in as a "real" user. There is a copy of AIX's compress in ~ftp/bin, and it has the same permissions as gzip has there. If I do, say, "get foo.Z", foo.Z shows up in my directory, but it's empty.

Another part of the Answerbook states that ranlib has been unbundled, suggesting that if you have SUN's unbundled compiler you might have access to ranlib in that way. Unfortunately, I see the compiler of choice is gcc. I have seen touch used to update the date of the archive to avoid a "archive out of date" (or words to that effect) message. Otherwise perhaps ar(1) with its many options may be the answer.

At my site wu-ftpd-2.4 work nicely on a SPARCstation 20 with Solaris 2.4 I use it for anonymous real and also guest users, with no great problem, only some silent FTP connection (i think in most case arrived from WEB browser) sometime.

To take your example, /home/dir/./user/ would place them in "/user", and allow them to cd to "/" (which would be "dir")... No security violation here, although this mechanism unfortunately causes Netsite WWW Servers to not be able to access a user directory, because they refuse to accept "." or ".." in the path to a directory for security reasons (I see the rationale for the latter, but not for the former).

This bothers me. It was a simple problem of write getting interrupted and writing out less than what was requested before returning, but ftpd was interpreting this as an error. This problem can't possibly exist in other wu-ftpd's out there, because I only experienced this problem w/ my version of the source. Thus, I must have an outdated copy of the source even though it's wu-ftpd 2.4 (from the README): WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY FTP SERVER, RELEASE 2.2 - Apr 1, 1994 Is Washington U maintaining the source still? Is there a location where all these little changes, patches, upgrades are documented?

Assuming by "former" you mean the mechanism that has "guest" users sharing the same "chroot()'ed" root directory (/home/dir in the above example): The reason is so all guest users can share the same /usr, /bin, /etc and /dev sub-trees. And if you have your anonymous users chroot() to a directory below this (/home/dir/anonymous) then you can build links like: /home/dir/etc -> /home/dir/anonymous/etc And you only have to maintain one set of ancillary directories. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Lojewski - ACUSON Corp - Mountain View, CA - (lojewski@Acuson.COM) From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Mon Mar 20 11:48:07 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rqnIs-0003xuC; Mon, 20 Mar 95 11:39 PST Received: from host (localhost.wustl.edu [127.0.0.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id NAA25090; Mon, 20 Mar 1995 13:39:48 -0600 Received: from visionware.com (SIOUX.VISIONWARE.COM [192.187.225.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id NAA24953 for ; Mon, 20 Mar 1995 13:37:36 -0600 Received: by visionware.com (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA06602; Mon, 20 Mar 95 11:36:23 PST Message-Id: <9503201936.AA06602@visionware.com> Date: Mon, 20 Mar 95 11:36:23 PST Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: pats@visionware.com (Patrick Salsbury) To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Cc: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: Re: wuftpd 2.1 & mosaic In-Reply-To: <9503200439.AA04237@macau.ctm.net> (demo2@macau.ctm.net) X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN -Date: Mon, 20 Mar 95 12:39:45 HKT -Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu -Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu -From: demo2@macau.ctm.net (demo_2) -X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN - -Dear Patrick Salsbury, - I have received your email and copy those file in the dir like yours.

The SysVile one goes searching through common places for the binary to replace. THe messages you are getting presumably are because you have dud links at /bin/detect-term and it is complaining. Either examine what the install script does make -n install and do it by hand, or grab the GNU file utilities and install get the install program out of that and use it. Failing that you can read the man page on install, and modify the Makefile to use the right options.

I could actually DIR everything EXCEPT the pub directory. When I would do an upload, the default permissions created for the file from ftpaccess were different than my group/passwd pair for the ftp account. I actually was creating a file with an unknown group (I had erroneously reversed the userid/groupid pair in /etc/passwd.) Just having one file with an unknown group in the ~ftp/pub directory left me unable to DIR the pub directory, although I could DIR the ~ftp/etc directory. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group, your ~ftp/etc/passwd and ~ftp/etc/group, your ftpaccess file, and your permissions on everybody in your ~ftp tree. Make sure that your idents for the ftp user are consistent throughout. That's what it was here.....

One reason is you are probably using /usr/sbin/install which does not appear to work real well. You might try changing the top level Makefile and call /usr/ucb/install instead. If that doesn't work you can always simply put the files in there proper places by hand. Hope this helps.

The anonftp ## I just set up is "osmon.studo.mh.se" ## if you wan't to try it yourself. ## I've also seen this problem with Sol2.3 servers. It appears to specifically the combination you have mentioned: wu-ftp, Solaris 2.X, Netscape running on a Mac trying to use ftp. I was hoping that the OS upgrade from 2.3 to 2.4 would resolve the problem, but nyet! Even doing process tracing, I have not found the problem or a solution.

(Make sure /bin/false is also in /etc/shells!) I use guestgroups to allow in certain people to look at directories that regular anon users can't see. Hope this helps!

To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Hello, has anyone here had any problems with anonymous ftp under the version of wu-ftpd that accompanies Yggdrasil Linux on CD-ROM? I can't recall the version of wu-ftpd, but I'm sure it's the latest because I ftp'ed the only copy from sunsite and reinstalled it, only my problems still occur. All users can connect via ftp, and login. However the anonymous user after logging in cannot issue an 'ls' (LIST) command. It claims it's establishing a connection for '/bin/ls' and then nothing (it's done), no files are displayed. I'm 99% sure I have *everything* that is required in order for anonymous FTP to work, including a valid shell in '/etc/shells' for the ftp user. ~ftp is owned by the ftp user, but mode 555. The file at ~ftp/bin/ls is both searchable and executable. The directory ~ftp/etc contains an acceptable passwd(5) and group(5) file. I even created the file ~ftp/lib/libc.so.vv, where 'vv' represent the current lib version on my system (this is an actual copy, not a symlink). I tried reading this listserv for a week, in hope that someone with similar problems would post something and I could save everyone some time. I also tried looking for a FAQ, and now I have tried everything I could possibly ever think of. Does anyone have any suggestions? (if I need to be more specific about my OS version, and the wu-ftp version, please let me know. My kernel is release 1.1.47 of Yggdrasil).

X-Mailer: Mail User's Shell (7.2.5 10/14/92) X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Hi, I've just been pointed at this mailing list by AUSCERT in Australia. My ftp machine minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au has been sporadically crashing due to a page fault. After finding out exactly where in the kernel it was crashing, and preventing it & logging the attempt, the logs show that wu-ftpd 2.4 is the culprit, via the getsockopt/setsockopt system call. I am running wu-ftpd 2.4 via the tcp_wrappers. Each sockopt event is logged as follows: Mar 14 17:28:01 minnie /386bsd: sogetopt null pcb pid 687 Mar 14 17:28:01 minnie /386bsd: sosetopt null pcb pid 687 as logged by the kernel as it prevents the page fault. The tcp_wrappers log: Mar 14 17:28:01 minnie ftpd[687]: connect from egavd.nexus.olemiss.edu Finally, wu-ftpd 2.4 logged: Mar 14 17:28:04 minnie ftpd[687]: connection from localhost [0.0.0.0] Mar 14 17:28:04 minnie ftpd[687]: FTP session closed Looking at the dozens of `events' in the last 2 weeks since I fixed the bug, I find: + the ftp session closes immediately + wu-ftpd logs the machine's name as localhost, but on all other connections it gets it right + the event is not related to any source routed packets + multiple hosts are causing these events + the hosts causing the events haven't made any other ftp connections in the days before/after the event My conclusion is that either I am being attacked by a number of sites, or that wu-ftpd has some bug or race condition. If any of you have seen anything like this, can you please email me and let me know, especially if you know the cause. I am on the mailing list. Many thanks in advance, Warren Toomey wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au root@minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au Appendix -------- The machine minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au's only purpose is to provide anonymous ftp, www, mailing-list and search-by-email facilities. There are no user accounts except some active mail recipients, a non-operator user `warren' and root. The operating system is FreeBSD 1.1. I upgraded the OS in an attempt to rid the system of the crash, but to no avail. I used kgdb to trace the crashes to the function sogetopt() and sosetopt() in /sys/kern/uipc_socket.c. Rarely, in these two functions, the field so->so_pcb was set to NULL. This null pointer was being dereferenced via the intotcpcb() macro as follows: sogetopt/sosetopt() calls tcp_ctloutput() through a f'n pointer, passing so tcp_ctloutput() calls sotoinpcb() and intotcpcb(), dereferencing so->so_pcb and crashing the kernel when so->so_pcb is NULL. I fixed the kernel to prevent to f'n pointer call to tcp_ctloutput() when so->so_pcb is NULL. I also generate a kernel log message logging the error and the process-id that did the sogetopt/sosetopt (done via the getsockopt/setsockopt() system calls). After rebooting using the modified kernel, I obtained the logs as shown above. I am suspicious that wu-ftpd logged a different address than tcp_wrappers, and suspicious that it is 0.0.0.0. There may be a race condition being probed in wu-ftp: the intruder opens an ftp connection, and then immediately closes it again. wu-ftpd tries to getsockopt() on the connection, but it ain't there any more. The missing so_pcb field causes minnie to crash. This is only a hypothesis. I could be wrong.

It is all built using gcc 2.6.3 and the compile contained on significant problems. The first problem was with the getcwd which is provided in sco.c It fails rather abysmally on NFS partitions. I replaced it with the SCO getcwd and it seems to function okay. Are there any gotchas with this. The second problem relates to ftp/anonymous usage. I get a failure on opening the socket in getdatascocket(). I have added a bit of debugging code: s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (s < 0) { syslog(LOG_WARNING, "socket (AF_INET): %m"); goto bad; } which produces output of: 425 Can't create data socket (193.118.186.132,20): Protocol error. Before I cloned the devices into ~ftp/dev I got the following error: 425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number so I have made some progress. But as the man said, "Close, but no cigar" :) The devices I cloned are: /var/services/ftpd/dev: total 4 crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 76 Mar 23 12:41 e3C0 drwxrwxr-x 2 root other 144 Mar 23 12:50 inet crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 28 Mar 23 12:41 llcloop crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 41 Mar 23 12:41 log crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 39 Mar 23 12:41 mpip crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 4, 2 Mar 23 12:34 null crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 42 Mar 23 12:41 ptmx crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 22 Mar 23 12:41 socksys crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 60 Mar 23 12:41 spx crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 75 Mar 23 12:41 vw /var/services/ftpd/dev/inet: total 0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 19 Mar 23 12:47 arp crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 27 Mar 23 12:47 icmp crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 23 Mar 23 12:47 ip crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 24 Mar 23 12:47 rip crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 29 Mar 23 12:34 tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root other 40, 30 Mar 23 12:36 udp I am aware that this is overkill, but I am looking for what I am missing and not getting very far.

Content-type: text Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL22] X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Dear FTPD Administrator: One way to verify that the "anonymous" and "guest" permissions for, /dev, /usr/lib, /etc /home/directory etc. are setup correctly is do the following: Make a first pass at setting up the above directories. Assuming your target chroot directory is /FTP: Make a *temporary* entry in the /FTP/etc/passwd (and /FTP/etc/shadow if necessary) file(s) for the user in question (probably ftp) that gives him the shell /bin/sh. Put (*temporarily*) a copy of "sh" and "su" in /FTP/bin/ directory. Then as root you can issue the command: chroot /FTP /bin/su - ftp If "su" compalains that it needs another shared library, *temporarily* copy that libarary into /usr/lib and try again. This should give you a shell (as ftp) in the new chroot()'ed directory "/FTP". Now you can verify that commands like "ls -l" work correctly. You can also try to create files, "cd" to various locations, try to read and write in those directories etc. This allows you to see, interactively, if you have installed all the correct shared libraries. Any complaints encountered are written to stdout - so you can see what the problem is. Also you can tell where you can and can't read and write. A nice side effect of this is that you can get an idea of what kind of damage can be done by the account should THE WORST happen and he figures out a way to get a shell on your machine. Don't forget to undo all the *temporary* things you did to set this all up. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Lojewski - ACUSON Corp - Mountain View, CA - (lojewski@Acuson.COM) From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Thu Mar 23 13:31:55 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from nwnexus.wa.com by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rruLI-00047kC; Thu, 23 Mar 95 13:22 PST Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by nwnexus.wa.com with SMTP id AA15855 (5.65c/IDA-1.4.4 for ); Thu, 23 Mar 1995 13:23:15 -0800 Received: from host (localhost.wustl.edu [127.0.0.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id PAA13680; Thu, 23 Mar 1995 15:13:55 -0600 Received: from visionware.com (SIOUX.VISIONWARE.COM [192.187.225.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id PAA13591 for ; Thu, 23 Mar 1995 15:13:06 -0600 Received: by visionware.com (4.1/SMI-4.1) id AA24306; Thu, 23 Mar 95 13:11:47 PST Message-Id: <9503232111.AA24306@visionware.com> Date: Thu, 23 Mar 95 13:11:47 PST Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: pats@visionware.com (Patrick Salsbury) To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Cc: wu-ftpd@wunet.wustl.edu, clh@ptech.com Subject: Re: More wu-ftpd install questions In-Reply-To: <9503231324.AA26175@ptech.com> (clh@ptech.com) X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN -I'm trying to ftp to a system I'm setting up and am having -a problem.

"xferstats" on my system is a "perl" script, if the first line in your xferstats file reads "#!/usr/local/bin/perl" (or something similar) then yours is to, if you don't have perl you should be able to find it out there on archie somewhere.

Getopts.pl is *not* the same as "getopts" from section one of the man page. getopts.pl comes with perl, and has nothing to do with SunOS (thus a clean install of 4.1.3 is immaterial). If your perl cannot find getopts.pl, then it was installed incorrectly. It is a small code sequence and I could send you a copy, but you should really check into why your perl can find the perl lib that is part of the installation. -- Logan Ratner | ratner@rice.edu | It is not funny that a man should die, but CRPC/CITI | tinker | it is funny that he should be killed for so Rice Univ. | tailor | little, and the coin of his death should be Houston TX | cybernaut | what we call civilization - R.

"getopts" is not a command, it is a perl script as well that should be in the default perl library. My "getopts.pl" is in /usr/local/lib/perl which is the directory that was created when I installed perl. It also put all the necessary perl subroutines there. Maybe you should check to see if perl is installed correctly on your machine and if not download it and reinstall it..... > What's odd is this is a clean 4.1.3_U1 installation.

Like I said, it comes with perl.

I've explicitly disabled that (see the "nodirs" flag). I've even set it after the first two lines, in hopes it would make a difference, but it doesn't. Anonymous users may also create subdirectories under ftp-owned directories (and owner-writable). I want them to be able to *upload*, but not *mkdir*. I have to leave some of the directories world-writable so that my local users can create subdirectories. I also want anonymous users to be able to upload. But I don't want them creating their own subdirectories. Has anyone seen/diagnosed/fixed this problem? Check it out, it may be affecting you. I'm running SunOS 4.1.3, and WU-FTPD v2.4.

I think we'd all like to minimize Shared libraries should be executable and readable. They *have* to be readable because the dynamic loader library has to search through them for symbols. I don't know/can't explain why they are executable --- I took away the execute bits on some of my shared libraries (private ones, NOT SYSTEM ONES, don't try that home kids, :-) and the program that used was fine. > Can I just enable "x" and not "r" on all of them? No. You get messages like: ld.so.1: ./racd: fatal: libcrack.so: can't open file: errno=2 Killed if you try that one. Having execute permissions means very little, it is read permissions that of interest to crackers anyway (retrieve your shared library and scan it for known bugs :-() As for the directory, I think you can get away with just execute permissions on them. A book on basic UNIX should be able to explain the ins and outs of directory permissions. > On a SOLaris 2.4 machine, what are the MINIMUM /usr/lib permissions. > (I already know which files I need).

You could probably get away without the NIS things, and could even get away without them at all if you build a static 'ls'. I have had success with removing the read permissions on the directories (so you can't ls in there via ftp). Some people said on this list that removing read permissions causes failures on their systems. YMMV. Hope this is of some help...

Have you put all the libraries listed in the Sun man page for ftpd? Check your device nodes' major and minor numbers. Make sure ls -lL /dev/udp ~ftp/dev/udp etc match up. Better still: Go and get the Recommended Patch Cluster from Solaris 2.4 If you have software support, bug your vendor! If you don't The Solaris FAQ should tell you where it is. Install the patches. Solaris 2.{3,4} straight from the CD has problems. move your current FTP tree safely out of the way read the Solaris man page and follow their 5 or so steps to creating an FTP site Use the vendor *supplied* version FIRST and make sure it works Then replace the line in 'ftp' /etc/inet/inded.conf with the WU-FTPD. A few nights ago I created an anon FTP area on our Solaris 2.4 machine from scratch by following the instructions in the man page. The WU-FTPD (compiled on a 2.3 system) worked just fine, as did the stock Sun version.

Other people have tried it as well, but without any success. The OS is AT&T SysV Rel 4, with streams. I've ported a few other network programs to this environment, so the networking stuff as a whole functions all right. The problem that I see is when I connect to the wu-ftpd server and try to do either a "dir" or an "ls", it looks like the client hangs. A truss on the daemon shows the ftpd die and hang up. I saw some ftp site somewhere running this daemon and it advertised that it ran an "internal ls". Does that ring a bell with anyone? Sorry if I'm a bit vague on the details, but if more information is needed I'll be happy to supply, but this may be a problem that's been seen and solved already.

X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN The docs do a pretty good job of covering this. The big trick to not logging in is to put a non-existent or bogus shell in /etc/passwd, something like /etc/ftponly (which does not exist anywhere). That file name does have to exist in /etc/shells. The group assigned in the /etc/passwd file for a guest user must also be given in the guestgroup directive in /etc/ftpaccess. Sounds like from the subject line you've already figured out most of this. Note also the /dir/dir1/./dir2 format in the /etc/passwd line for a guest; this sets where the effective top of the guest's tree will be. Hope this reassures you are on the right track...

You could probably do it with TCP-WRAPPER, TIS toolkit, or many other tools. If you don't mind filtering at your internet router you could block all access to everything but port 20 & 21 for FTP, and allow connections to the range greater than 1024 if and only if the established bit is set. I think that TCP-WRAPPER might be the best choice. If you want more input perhaps you should subscribe to firewalls@greatcircle.com which is a firewalls mailing list.

The problem was in the PASV code which is used for server to server connections and was related to security issues with the bind and accept system calls under Solaris. Most clients do not issue this command and therefore work; notable exceptions include Netscape (for all platforms, not just Macintosh as previously stated by another poster). Notes: 1) This has only been tested on Solaris 2.4 for Intel platforms; although I know of no reasons why it would not work for SPARC systems or Solaris 2.3 2) I make no claims or warranties regarding the functionality or security issues related to this patch. Hopefully my modifications will be reviewed by the maintainers of the source code and folded into the normal distribution. These changes should not affect other systems. Where to get the patch: On my Solaris 2.4 wu-ftpd site, of course! This patch consists of a single source file, ftpd.c. You may wish to save a copy of your old version and run a diff to see what I changed. ftp.stac.com /pub/Eng/unix/ftpd.patch/ftpd.c 76381 bytes.

Hi Derald, Thanks for the prompt reply. I think I saw a quote for FireWall-1. Doesn't it cost somewhere on the order of $30,000?

Our requirement is that we use the Internet to allow "guest" accounts to ftp in each guest's $HOME/pub directory like this: /FTP/guests/theguest/pub. The ownership on /FTP/guests/theguest/pub is drwxrws--T 2 theguest ftpadmin The "ftpadmin" group is for internal users to maintain guest home directories. Because of the way I have permissions set up for "/FTP/guests" and "/FTP/guests/theguests" I had to list ftpadmin in the guestgroups as well. So now, even though group "ftpadmin" has rwx permission on the pub dir, ftpd won't allow users in that group to write in that directory. Is this by design? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tom Lojewski - ACUSON Corp - Mountain View, CA - (lojewski@Acuson.COM) From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Tue Mar 28 11:02:20 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco1 Return-Path: Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0rtgOh-0003fZC; Tue, 28 Mar 95 10:53 PST Received: from host (localhost.wustl.edu [127.0.0.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with SMTP id MAA08506; Tue, 28 Mar 1995 12:49:52 -0600 Received: from wunet.wustl.edu (wunet.wustl.edu [128.252.120.2]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.11/8.6.11) with ESMTP id MAA08317 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 1995 12:47:54 -0600 Received: from 165.166.1.5 by wunet.wustl.edu (PMDF V4.3-10 #8766) id <01HOO48OJ59C000G5L@wunet.wustl.edu>; Tue, 28 Mar 1995 12:36:14 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ptech.com (ngate.ptech.com) by SUNBELT.NET (PMDF V4.3-10 #4800) id <01HOO6JBEHK00007EG@SUNBELT.NET>; Tue, 28 Mar 1995 13:42:06 -0500 (EST) Received: by ptech.com; id AA22978; Tue, 28 Mar 95 13:36:10 EST Message-Id: <9503281836.AA22978@ptech.com> Date: Tue, 28 Mar 1995 13:36:09 -0500 (EST) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: "Charles L.

I've heard about this package but don't know if it offers the kind of "last stand" gate I'm after. If my external router has been spoofed, I simply DO NOT ALLOW TELNET FROM *ANY* IP ADDRESS to my external ethernet port. I think there must be a way to do this.

X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN I do that today within inetd.conf - just comment out the telnet line, then kill -HUP to tell inetd to reread the inetd.conf file. This does not prevent telnet to SMTP port 25, say, but it won't connect a standard telnet to port 23. I don't know of any way to prevent a telnet to port 25, as there is no way to know what client originates a connection; you may be able to hack sendmail to _detect_ it and reject it. See the sendmail fix-kit at avian.org. If anyone on the list is interested, there is also a fixkit for wu-ftpd. FTP to avian.org:/src/fixkits/*.fix. All of these are courtesy of Hobbit@avian.org.

True if you give a bogus shell; with a real shell a guest user can log in. Think of it as a cross between real and anonymous FTP. You use a name and password to gain access to a restricted part of the file tree (thus something like a real user), but you are chroot()ed into the tree so you are restricted to one area only (thus like anonymous). > - How do I define a guest user in the passwd file and in > the ftpaccess file?

No. Guest users share a common "chrooted" directory. That's the directory entry above the ".". In the above example they would share "/opt/net/anonftp" but automatically cd to "/opt/net/anonftp/pub" at login. Experiment with this. > - How do I define a guest user in the passwd file and in > the ftpaccess file? Define a special /etc/group for the user.

Have you set up ~ftp/dev/zero as needed by SunOS? 2. Check the options as set by ftpaccess 3. Check inetd.conf to make sure it refers to the new ftpd properly (I think you mentioned doing this, but still it can't hurt to check.)

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Sender: jonathan@consensus.com X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN I'm concerned with one problem with wu-ftpd as opposed to standard ftp. We have a user class which only have access to to the system through ftp. (Shell is /bin/false), home directory set to: ~ftp/./BobsPlace (this is just a silly example cause that's the mood I'm in :) Anyway, I hadn't noticed this, not having come in on an ftp account for a bit, but their root is no longer ~ftp, it is now the real system's / root. This is needless to say a problem, since it circumvents the point of having ftp only accounts. Has anyone else encountered this, or have any ideas on ways of resecuring a system? Considering wu-ftpd's reputation for being a benefit in terms of security, this leaves me a bit puzzled. Any help would be appreciated. Jonathan.

Content-Type: text X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL22] X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Hi all, I've noticed that, when logging into our wu-ftp server, there's quite a long delay from the "FTP server ready" message and the login prompt. I've seen this on a number of other wu-ftpd sites too; are there any known ways to speed this up? I haven't tried profiling the code or anything, so I don't even know where it's spending all its time. Has anyone done this? -- scott evans http://ocsystems.com/~gse it's a shame when the parts fit gse@ocsystems.com but the machine won't work
