No, that about empties my sleeve. The only other thing I could think of
now is a complete walkthrough of the code inserting debug statements
everywhere to see which statement is the 'killer'.

Uhm.. you could check whether your version of the operating system and
wu-ftpd agree on the use of shadow passwords. I do remember that certain
versions of AIX have a very weird shadow passwording system.

Subject: How to seperate wtmp on Solaris 2.5 ?
Content-Type: text
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hi, wuftpd-wizards!

I installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-10 on a Solaris 2.5 System
and I want to seperate the wtmp file from the system wtmp file,
so that if I execute
last -f /usr/local/wuftpd/wtmp, I will get all logins of ftp-users.
But when I execute this command,  the only output I get, is:

wtmp begins Thu Jun 20 20:08

Does anyone knows, what to do ?
Where is the fault I have done ?
I defined the path in pathnames.h correctly.

Thanks in advance,

Stephan Jaeger

Sounds like the /pub directory does not have the proper permissions.  I 
have a /incoming directory like this:

drwx-wx-wx   2 root     daemon       1024 Jun 27 23:45 incoming

This is a permission mask of 0733.  The anonymous user cannot see the
contents of the directory, but the anonymous user can write into it.  The
fact that the directory does not have read permission for other than root
means only that the contents of the directory are not available to the
remote ftp user.  If the file permission has read set, a file in that
directory can be fetched if named specifically. 

You were correct in setting 0600 permissions on the uploaded file so that
it cannot be read back; this will keep unwanted software from being traded
through your site.

Subject: Ftp throuput rates for dial-up PPP modems.
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN



  Hello WU list,


  I'm part of an ISP and am currently facing the following problem:
My clients, using dial-up PPP, can't seem to get more than 1/4's worth
of their total modem throughput (14400, for example), when transferring
via ftp. Any special reason why? I suspect the ftp protocol itself, but
can't be sure.
  Let me illustrate:

	14400 modem = 1.8 kbytes/sec --> user gets roughly 0.4 kbytes/sec.
	28800 modem = 3.6 kbytes/sec --> user gets roughly 1.0 kbytes/sec.

  What's odd about all this is that if you use windows 95, and bring up the
modem monitor, it *shows* throughput that nears the modem's full throughput.
It's just the ftp-data part that is much less. 

  Any clues, lights, insights, hints?


   Thanks,

			Nelson C. L. Pedrozo

Odd, I get the same behavior.  I thought it was just me :)  If anyone knows
a solution for this problem, I would be quite intrested.  I'm using 2.4 on
a Sparc 20 with Solaris 2.5...

As you can see below, the FTPD is still displaying 'no1.superb.net FTP server' 
even when it is for another IP. I have the latest version of wu-ftpd + the 
virtual patch, yet it is still this way...have I done anything wrong? Any way 
to fix this (to display <IP> FTP server ready, or even better <otherdomainname> 
FTP server ready for virtual FTP)?

Thanks in advance!


Hmm...not fully virtual, is it?

Stan,

I posted to the list, but haven't been able to resolve the problem.

I've altered pathnames.h as I usually to to suit my preferences for where
the files should be located (for me, /usr/local); however, regardless of
this, the compiled executable has /etc as the location and thus fails to
log and read ftpaccess.  I can't figure out what's wrong... I'm using
gcc-2.7.2 on Solaris-2.4.

Thanks,

Forrie

For SLIP/PPP connections using TCP things like the MTU size and the TCP 
window size are important.  Also, depending on the usage and transfers it 
is possible to get significantly better thruput in one direction vice the 
other.  For our Communication Servers and our Winsock clients we use an 
MTU of 600 and a TCP window of 4095.  Some experimentation may be in 
order to determine the best settings.

Also keep in mind that some of the bandwidth is gobbled up by protocol 
headers.  And the fact that the modem appears to max its transfer rate is 
that you could be doing lots of TCP retransmits which would reduce your 
effective thruput at the application level.

Good luck!
Jim

On Solaris 2.x there is a program called ndd which allows one to modify
certain parameters which govern the way a protocol behaves. However, from
what I have recently heard on this list, the implementation of the TCP in the
Kernel is not using them properly so setting them may not help.  There is
very little documentation on ndd and its settings. Unless one is familiar
with the way TCP/IP work and how the driver uses the parameters it may be of
little use.  And since Sun has uses a modified version of "slow start,"
understanding how that works may not be sufficient.

A quick look at the beta-11 source suggests that line is coming from

    reply(220, "%s FTP server (%s) ready.", hostname, version);

in ftpd.c where 'hostname' is set by gethostbyname() (or its moral
equivalent)  earlier on.  gethostbyname() will return the 'real' hostname,
not the hostname of the logical interface, so I think you'd need to
explicitly fetch the IP address of the particular logical interface (eg. 
virtual_ptr->sin_addr) and then do a gethostbyaddr() on that IP address to
get the 'right' hostname.

This is a known problem with the tcp/ip stack on Suns.  Patches should
be *real soon now* to handle these problems.  Here is a complete
description of the problems by the engineers who are building the
patches:



     Subject:  Announcing New TCP Performance Patch
        Date:  7 Jun 1996 23:36:21 GMT
        From:  cathe@Eng.Sun.COM (Cathe A. Ray)
Organization:  Sun Microsystems, Inc.
  Newsgroups:  comp.unix.solaris


Sun doesn't ordinarily announce patches when they're released. But
we've just finished a series of TCP-related fixes and improvements, and
we want to make sure that the news gets out as quickly as possible to
the many people who can benefit from our work.

This patch announcement will be of interest mostly to folks who use Sun
workstations over "slow" links, like most dial-up lines.  Please note,
though, that you might benefit from the work we'll discuss here even if
you've never used one of our workstations directly.  (Many companies
who provide Internet access use Suns as part of the communication path.
And the patches are for Suns running Solaris 2.4 and up.)

Also note: This message is coming to you directly from the engineers
who did the work. We wanted to get the information out to you right
away, but we really aren't trying to replace all the other Sun sources
of information you might have access to. Please, don't send us lots of
detailed questions--we're not volunteering to answer them (or even
respond to many of the followups here). We just really wanted to make
sure this message got out. Thanks.

Manager, Internet Engineering


        TCP Performance Improvements For Slow Network Links
        ===================================================

Our Sun team is responsible for basic network communications software.
We've been putting in a lot of work lately on improving the performance
of TCP over slow network links. Now we're finished; testing is
complete; and the patches (for Solaris 2.4 and later) will be available
shortly.

We undertook the work in response to feedback from customers serving
WWW users over asynchronous PPP links. Users of LANs and WANs built on
10base-T and faster media never saw the problem behavior, which
actually affected FTP and other TCP-based applications as well.

With the new patches in place, slow links will operate with roughly the
same efficiency as fast links. Without the patches, efficiency of very
slow links could, under Solaris 2.5, sink to as low as 5 per cent of the
theoretical maximum.

In the following sections we will describe in detail what was wrong and
how we fixed it. If you don't need to know all that, just check the
table below for the patch numbers. They'll be available soon from our
usual patch sources. We're confident that customers who have seen the
problem will now observe a remarkable improvement. Others will see no
change.

HISTORY

Strangely, the decline in throughput was the result of several
improvements we made over the years to the TCP retransmission
algorithms and parameters. Every change improved performance for
systems with fast links. The cumulative effect for slow links was just
the reverse; but almost all our systems--and our customers'--were
hooked up to fast links, and the drawbacks went largely unnoticed. That
was the state of affairs at the time 2.4 was released.

By the time 2.5 came out, async hookups to the Web had exploded. We had
implemented another relatively minor TCP bug fix. Customers with fast
links were better off. The efficiency of slow links declined. We
quickly learned we had a problem.

We tracked down the inconsistencies and rewrote the code. We've
redesigned the algorithm for good behavior across all supported
configurations. We've added slow links and a wide mix of simulated
platforms to our test beds, and tested the fixes in both high-speed and
slow-speed networks. The problem is resolved.

Excellence is a moving target.


TECHNICAL DETAILS

Here are some technical details. As you'll see, we've made it a pretty
frank discussion. (Please be aware, though, that we do not intend to
spend much time debating our decisions here.)

The throughput troubles on slow lines result from an excessive rate of
retransmissions. The rate, in turn, is caused by a mis-tuning adaptive
algorithm.

TCP packets are retransmitted if no response is received before a
timeout period has expired. Our routines implement a variant of the
familiar Karn and Jacobson adaptive algorithms, which attempts to
predict an efficient timeout value based on the time it took previous
packets to complete a roundtrip. Elapsed values are combined into a
smoothed average roundtrip time ("RTT") and variance.

The key elements in this calculation are the initial RTT value and the
subsequent RTT's factored in. The changes we have made involve both of
these key areas.


INITIAL RTT VALUES

As an unintended result of several cumulative changes, the kernel
parameter "tcp_rexmit_interval_initial" was actually not being used. In
fact, all Internet Routing Entry (IRE) RTT values were being
initialized to 512 milliseconds. TCP was using that as an initial
setting.

For connections which flow through a route with a roundtrip time less
than that (such as a LAN or WAN built on 10base-T) all was well. When
the connection closed, the actual IRE RTT value was updated and the
predictive timeout value successfully adjusted.

For connections with an RTT greater then 512 ms, however, the timeout
would necessarily trip, and retransmissions occur. If the actual time
differed sufficiently from the original estimated value, TCP was never
able to send a segment without one or more retransmissions. A realistic
RTT for the route could never be established.  This scenario is the
beginning of the explanation of what has been happening on several-hop
Internet or asynchronous PPP links.

Our solution is to initialize all IRE RTT's to zero instead of 512 ms.
Any new connection for a route will now, when lookup discloses the zero
value, get the value of the "tcp_rexmit_interval_initial" parameter
instead.  (And it's been increased to 3 seconds.)  So in most cases the
adaptive algorithm will now be able to adjust timeout values
effectively.


RTO (RETRANSMIT TIMEOUT) ALGORITHM INTERACTION

Another factor contributing to packet congestion and retransmission was
a change to the RTO algorithm, introduced in a 2.4 Kernel Patch.  The
intent was to make the behavior more "conservative"--that is, lower the
risk of poor timeout values. The effect on low-speed links was
unexpectedly contrary.

A key (and unintended) effect of the code change was that RTT data from
retransmitted packets was discarded. This behavior, together with the
poor initial RTT values described earlier, meant that the adaptive
algorithm was deprived of the information needed to adjust the RTO.

Our solution is to keep the RTO RTT update still conservative, but now
update the RTO after no more than one receive window's worth of valid
RTT's. Further, when an invalid RTT is seen--an ACK of a retransmitted
segment, for example--any valid RTT information is fed into the RTO
algorithm.


ZERO WINDOW PROBE BUG FIX

The problems described so far affect Solaris 2.4 and 2.5 equally. What
changed with 2.5?

One important fix we included in 2.5 was for the "zero window probe"
bug, a  well-publicized problem affecting just about all versions of
UNIX. As part of that rewrite, we removed a nondescript piece of logic
that implemented a simple "backoff" scheme. The excised code caused the
RTO to be lengthened by one-eighth as a result of certain failures. It
seemed not to be needed; but it had concealed the presence of the other
bugs by providing a means for the RTO to reach a successful value. When
this code was removed the other underlying problems were exposed.


IRE RTT LOGIC

This last part of the problem concerns the interaction between TCP and
the Solaris-specific Internet Routing Entries. The IRE RTT logic caches
RTT values to be re-used when a new connection is made over a familiar
link.

This is a fine approach. The implementation, however, had a flaw: the
IRE RTT was updated regardless of the RTT value supplied by TCP.

As you will have guessed by now, users of high-speed links saw no
effect.  But in highly variable RTT routes, when a connection dominated
by small segments was closed, a problem could result. An RTT too short
for large segments was used to update the IRE RTT, and a subsequent
connection dominated by large segments (like FTP) experienced an
excessive retransmission rate. It was a different path to a familiar
dilemma: too small a timeout value.

Naturally the most highly variable RTT's tend to be seen on async PPP
links, where the RTT of the route is compounded from (1) wire latency,
(2) low bandwidth, and (3) congestion/queuing delays as more than one
segment is transmited by TCP.

Our solution is to add an new ndd variable "tcp_rtt_updates". It allows
tuning or disabling of IRE RTT updates. A value of zero disables IRE
RTT updates. A value greater than zero specifies how many RTT updates
to the RTO are required--that is, how many chances the algorithm has
had to adapt the timeout--before a closing connection will be allowed
to update the RTT in the IRE.


CONCLUSION

We've fished out, fixed, and explained some subtle flaws in our
adaptive retransmission algorithm. We take the responsibility for
introducing them--and the credit, too, for practically every piece was,
by itself, a successful response to our customers' needs. Better and
exhaustive testing would have shown up the flaws earlier, privately,
harmlessly.  That's always our goal, and our customers have a right to
expect the best. Yes.

There's always tomorrow. In the meantime: we killed this one, folks.
Our sincere thanks for your attention--and your business.

Sir,

When you set up the ftp daemon in the inetd.conf, did you add the -a to the
command line??

If you didn't, that is the problem.

Well, the other person didn't say what platform he was using, but I'd bet
money it's Solaris as well.

It has nothing to do with FTP.. Bascially, Solaris' TCP/IP blows in a big
way over anything less than LAN speeds.

We've tested a patch for it, but it's still not there yet, though supposedly
Sun is working on it and though they made an annoucement nearly a month ago
(attached) the patch hasn't been released.  So, in other words, you'll have
to suffer or put SunOS 4 on it (you'll be glad you did.)

Sun doesn't ordinarily announce patches when they're released. But
we've just finished a series of TCP-related fixes and improvements, and
we want to make sure that the news gets out as quickly as possible to
the many people who can benefit from our work.

This patch announcement will be of interest mostly to folks who use Sun
workstations over "slow" links, like most dial-up lines.  Please note,
though, that you might benefit from the work we'll discuss here even if
you've never used one of our workstations directly.  (Many companies
who provide Internet access use Suns as part of the communication path.
And the patches are for Suns running Solaris 2.4 and up.)

Also note: This message is coming to you directly from the engineers
who did the work. We wanted to get the information out to you right
away, but we really aren't trying to replace all the other Sun sources
of information you might have access to. Please, don't send us lots of
detailed questions--we're not volunteering to answer them (or even
respond to many of the followups here). We just really wanted to make
sure this message got out. Thanks.

	TCP Performance Improvements For Slow Network Links
	===================================================

Our Sun team is responsible for basic network communications software.
We've been putting in a lot of work lately on improving the performance
of TCP over slow network links. Now we're finished; testing is
complete; and the patches (for Solaris 2.4 and later) will be available
shortly.

We undertook the work in response to feedback from customers serving
WWW users over asynchronous PPP links. Users of LANs and WANs built on
10base-T and faster media never saw the problem behavior, which
actually affected FTP and other TCP-based applications as well.

With the new patches in place, slow links will operate with roughly the
same efficiency as fast links. Without the patches, efficiency of very
slow links could, under Solaris 2.5, sink to as low as 5 per cent of the
theoretical maximum.

In the following sections we will describe in detail what was wrong and
how we fixed it. If you don't need to know all that, just check the
table below for the patch numbers. They'll be available soon from our
usual patch sources. We're confident that customers who have seen the
problem will now observe a remarkable improvement. Others will see no
change.

HISTORY

Strangely, the decline in throughput was the result of several
improvements we made over the years to the TCP retransmission
algorithms and parameters. Every change improved performance for
systems with fast links. The cumulative effect for slow links was just
the reverse; but almost all our systems--and our customers'--were
hooked up to fast links, and the drawbacks went largely unnoticed. That
was the state of affairs at the time 2.4 was released.

By the time 2.5 came out, async hookups to the Web had exploded. We had
implemented another relatively minor TCP bug fix. Customers with fast
links were better off. The efficiency of slow links declined. We
quickly learned we had a problem.

We tracked down the inconsistencies and rewrote the code. We've
redesigned the algorithm for good behavior across all supported
configurations. We've added slow links and a wide mix of simulated
platforms to our test beds, and tested the fixes in both high-speed and
slow-speed networks. The problem is resolved.

Excellence is a moving target.


TECHNICAL DETAILS

Here are some technical details. As you'll see, we've made it a pretty
frank discussion. (Please be aware, though, that we do not intend to
spend much time debating our decisions here.)

The throughput troubles on slow lines result from an excessive rate of
retransmissions. The rate, in turn, is caused by a mis-tuning adaptive
algorithm.

TCP packets are retransmitted if no response is received before a
timeout period has expired. Our routines implement a variant of the
familiar Karn and Jacobson adaptive algorithms, which attempts to
predict an efficient timeout value based on the time it took previous
packets to complete a roundtrip. Elapsed values are combined into a
smoothed average roundtrip time ("RTT") and variance.

The key elements in this calculation are the initial RTT value and the
subsequent RTT's factored in. The changes we have made involve both of
these key areas.


INITIAL RTT VALUES

As an unintended result of several cumulative changes, the kernel
parameter "tcp_rexmit_interval_initial" was actually not being used. In
fact, all Internet Routing Entry (IRE) RTT values were being
initialized to 512 milliseconds. TCP was using that as an initial
setting.

For connections which flow through a route with a roundtrip time less
than that (such as a LAN or WAN built on 10base-T) all was well. When
the connection closed, the actual IRE RTT value was updated and the
predictive timeout value successfully adjusted.

For connections with an RTT greater then 512 ms, however, the timeout
would necessarily trip, and retransmissions occur. If the actual time
differed sufficiently from the original estimated value, TCP was never
able to send a segment without one or more retransmissions. A realistic
RTT for the route could never be established.  This scenario is the
beginning of the explanation of what has been happening on several-hop
Internet or asynchronous PPP links.

Our solution is to initialize all IRE RTT's to zero instead of 512 ms.
Any new connection for a route will now, when lookup discloses the zero
value, get the value of the "tcp_rexmit_interval_initial" parameter
instead.  (And it's been increased to 3 seconds.)  So in most cases the
adaptive algorithm will now be able to adjust timeout values effectively.


RTO (RETRANSMIT TIMEOUT) ALGORITHM INTERACTION

Another factor contributing to packet congestion and retransmission was
a change to the RTO algorithm, introduced in a 2.4 Kernel Patch.  The
intent was to make the behavior more "conservative"--that is, lower the
risk of poor timeout values. The effect on low-speed links was
unexpectedly contrary.

A key (and unintended) effect of the code change was that RTT data from
retransmitted packets was discarded. This behavior, together with the
poor initial RTT values described earlier, meant that the adaptive
algorithm was deprived of the information needed to adjust the RTO.

Our solution is to keep the RTO RTT update still conservative, but now
update the RTO after no more than one receive window's worth of valid
RTT's. Further, when an invalid RTT is seen--an ACK of a retransmitted
segment, for example--any valid RTT information is fed into the RTO
algorithm.


ZERO WINDOW PROBE BUG FIX

The problems described so far affect Solaris 2.4 and 2.5 equally. What
changed with 2.5?

One important fix we included in 2.5 was for the "zero window probe"
bug, a  well-publicized problem affecting just about all versions of
UNIX. As part of that rewrite, we removed a nondescript piece of logic
that implemented a simple "backoff" scheme. The excised code caused the
RTO to be lengthened by one-eighth as a result of certain failures. It
seemed not to be needed; but it had concealed the presence of the other
bugs by providing a means for the RTO to reach a successful value. When
this code was removed the other underlying problems were exposed.


IRE RTT LOGIC

This last part of the problem concerns the interaction between TCP and
the Solaris-specific Internet Routing Entries. The IRE RTT logic caches
RTT values to be re-used when a new connection is made over a familiar
link.

This is a fine approach. The implementation, however, had a flaw: the
IRE RTT was updated regardless of the RTT value supplied by TCP.

As you will have guessed by now, users of high-speed links saw no
effect.  But in highly variable RTT routes, when a connection dominated
by small segments was closed, a problem could result. An RTT too short
for large segments was used to update the IRE RTT, and a subsequent
connection dominated by large segments (like FTP) experienced an
excessive retransmission rate. It was a different path to a familiar
dilemma: too small a timeout value.

Naturally the most highly variable RTT's tend to be seen on async PPP
links, where the RTT of the route is compounded from (1) wire latency,
(2) low bandwidth, and (3) congestion/queuing delays as more than one
segment is transmited by TCP.

Our solution is to add an new ndd variable "tcp_rtt_updates". It allows
tuning or disabling of IRE RTT updates. A value of zero disables IRE
RTT updates. A value greater than zero specifies how many RTT updates
to the RTO are required--that is, how many chances the algorithm has
had to adapt the timeout--before a closing connection will be allowed
to update the RTT in the IRE.


CONCLUSION

We've fished out, fixed, and explained some subtle flaws in our
adaptive retransmission algorithm. We take the responsibility for
introducing them--and the credit, too, for practically every piece was,
by itself, a successful response to our customers' needs. Better and
exhaustive testing would have shown up the flaws earlier, privately,
harmlessly.  That's always our goal, and our customers have a right to
expect the best. Yes.

There's always tomorrow. In the meantime: we killed this one, folks.
Our sincere thanks for your attention--and your business.

It has to do with all of the files... logs, etc.  It doesn't take the

Hi all.

I'm running 2.4.2 beta 11 on a Solaris 2.5 box (Intel x86), compiled with 
gcc 2.6.2.

Everything is working as expected for anonymous ftp, as long as you log 
in as user "anonymous":

>>220 wingnut2 FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-11](1) Tue
>>Jun 25 16:40:15 CDT 1996) ready.

>>230-
>>230- Report problems to ftpadmin@ftp.bdm.com.  If you have problems,

(blah, blah).

HOWEVER-- if I login as "ftp" instead:

>>Name (158.114.xxx.xxx:chamilto): ftp
>>530 User ftp access denied.
>>Login failed.

Anybody seen this problem?  Here are some particulars on my config:

/etc/passwd:
  ftp:x:125:125:Anonymous FTP:/opt/anonftp:/bin/ftponly

/etc/shells:
  # the following shells are allowed on this host.
  /bin/sh
  /bin/ksh
  /bin/csh
  /bin/ftponly

/bin/ftponly: symlinked to /bin/true

The "ftp" account is "locked".  That is--no login access for "ftp".  
Running "passwd -sa" gives:
  ftp  LK

I've tried it with ftp unlocked w/&w/o a password.  Same results.  
Bugger.  Even tried changing the shell from /bin/ftponly to /bin/csh... 
Even took the comment line out of /etc/shells... No help...  
Double-bugger.

Hints?

Actually, if you get the latest (b11) academ version from ftp.academ.com it has 
the patches right in it. See src/patches (I think) and apply them.

You also might want to change the FTP display message, or else it will still
display "your-real-host" FTP server ready, not the virtual name or IP, for
all. Change that in ftpd.c. (find 220).

Did you try setting the permissions of your "incoming" directory to 300?
This would prevent anyone for seeing a listing of the files there.  Of 
course, they could still download any file whose name they already 
knew...

Yes, I have already implemented that workaround, but I need to restrict the
other as well. Thanks.

directory I get...

When I remove the 'path-filter' statement in ftpaccess it works fine.

What am I screwing up?

I'm not sure if this is 100% applicable, but, hey, you're
trying everything!

Do you have an /etc/ftphosts file?  If so, is ftp in it?  If so,
remove it and see if that helps.

If not, then I'm daffy, nevermind, and sorry.

I figured out the problems and fixed it. I changed the ftpaccess file.
Changed 
#upload  /usr2/ftp  *           no
upload  /usr2/ftp  /pub/incoming    yes     ftp    ftpadmin   0770 nodirs
to
upload  /usr2/ftp  *           no
upload  /usr2/ftp  /incoming    yes     ftp    ftpadmin   0040 nodirs

Thanks for the help.

When you log in you wouldn't know you are at a virtual site.

Hi,

yesterday, I had to compile wu-ftpd 2.4.2 beta 11 on Solaris 2.5 and AIX
4.1.  In order to get it to compile (with gcc), I had to do the following
things:

- in src/ftpd.c, change

#include <arpa/ftp.h>

into

#define FTP_NAMES
#if defined(SOLARIS_2) || defined(AIX)
#include "ftp.h"
#else
#include <arpa/ftp.h>
#endif

as typenames and the other arrays are not defined in <arpa/ftp.h>.

- in src/extensions.h, line 99, change

extern char *realpath(char *pathname, char *result);

into

extern char *realpath(const char *pathname, char *result);

to make the ANSI compiler happy.

When I first started using wu-ftpd on solaris 2.4 the ftpwho command would list 
each connection and where they were coming in from, or there IP address.  Now 
what I get is just this.

Service class remote: 
 8 S    14 28891   123  0  41 20 f63b8cc8    533 f63033ce ?        0:01 ftpd

 8 S    14 27645   123  0  41 20 f624e340    533 f5e10d6e ?        0:00 ftpd

How do I get it to shorten this list and give me back the host that is coming 
in?

Thanks in advance
Milo

I am having a problem with wuftpd under solaris 2.5. For some reason,
when a file is uploaded into the incoming directory, the ownership is not 
changed according to ftpaccess. The ownership stays "ftp" with permissions
"664". The entry from ftpaccess is:

upload  /web/ftp  /incoming   yes     maintain  sys     0600    dirs

This happens no matter what I try. Any ideas?

Can you include the portion of code around line 70? This error seems to
come from my patch...

Yes, you need to run

sh newers.sh

by hand in the src directory.

Hi, wuftpd-wizards!

I want to set up some virtual hosts, which have seperate upload directories.

Installation of the virtual hosts made no problems, but how to realize it, that anonymous ftp-users can put only files into the specific upload directory belonging to the specific company.
I would make sense to include a line like the following into the ftpaccess file:
virtual www.xx.yy.zzz upload   /export/home/ftp/virtual.domain.com/incoming

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance

Hi all:

I compiled and installed wu-ftp version 2.4(2), but it doesn't log anything in
syslog and wtmpx!, also there is another problem, the ftpd doesn't count how 
many people are attached to ftp, hence it can't restrict the access when the
number of allowed people is exceeded.

Could you help me ?


thanks in advance

        I need some help finding out first off if its even possible with
wu-ftp to make user accounts that only allow logins from certain I.P's and
if its possible to make upload:download ratio's (so a user must upload
before downloading, and then can only download so many files before having
to upload again). 


        I would appreciate and info and help.


                                                        thanks

Greetings all,

It seems that I have the same problem some others do - namely, after a user
logs out (s)he is still counted as being logged in. For example, just
yesterday I had the ftpcount report 8 logged in users, when, in fact, there
were none! I logged in myself, logged out and there were 9...hmm. Some of
those connections were from over 5 days ago.

Is there any fix to this problem? Once the numbers start to grow, I'd hate to 
have to restart the FTPD just to get rid of this problem when the max user 
limit is reached, but there aren't really that many logged in.

BTW, I am using 2.4.2b11 (academ).

Any help, pointers, tips, etc. appreciated...
Haralds

Hi,

	I'm running 2.4(1) and am having a problem with the ftpaccess
file.  Its in regards to the upload command.

	I changed my incoming to 1733, and I have a program off my
web server that allows people to create sub-dirs underneath it.  Ok,
no biggie, it works.  HOWEVER, using the format of :

upload /home/ftp /incoming yes ftp ftp 0600 dirs

If they try to put it in /incoming its fine, but /incoming/news isn't.
I tried changing the 3rd field to :

	/incoming*
	/incoming/*
	/incoming/*/*

but it didn't get me anywhere.  Like I said, I can't put ALL the directories
in the list since they are being created dynamically.  

What do I do?!

				Tuc

Although the /etc/default/login has the UMASK=022 (as it should be) any/all 
files uploaded via FTP by anyone are always rw-rw-rw (NOT good!). How do I 
change the default umask for the FTP uploaded files for users.
(which file(s) do I edit on Solaris 2.5 SPARC?).

Thanks in advance!
Haralds

You can use the -u command line flag to set the umask (this is mentioned
in the FAQ), or have something like

upload /usr/ftp * no
upload /usr/ftp /incoming yes root dept 0640 nodirs

in your ftpaccess file, as the ftpaccess.5 manpage discusses.

Well, that is a problem for real users, not just anon upload...
in any case, I eventualy fixed it:
In /etc/rc2.d/S72inetsvc

umask 022
/usr/sbin/inetd -s

At end od file.

Seems that I am learning WU-FTPD eventually...:-)

Hmm, well this isn't happening for these cases...so I'll have to find the patch. 
I seem to have lost the URL of the FAQ... (what a common problem too probably! :-) 
If anyone could enlighten me with the FAQ URL (or, even better, a straight URL 
to the patch), that would be greatly appreciated...

Strange. I'm running 2.4. My entry in ftpacces is:
upload /Ftp/ftp /upload		yes ftp ftp 0444 dirs
upload /Ftp/ftp /upload/*	yes ftp ftp 0444 dirs

and this works just fine up-to one level.

Ronald.

A security note here:  If you want to prevent people from using your
anon-ftp site as a drop-point for copyrighted software and other
illegal activity, then the permissions and ownerships in the incoming
directories should be changed to something that cannot be read by
anon-ftp when the transfer is complete!

We use anon-ftp quite a bit to allow users to upload their personal
web pages, and have something like this in ftpaccess:

upload  /ftp    *   no
upload  /ftp    /incoming           yes bin         nogroup 0640 dirs
upload  /ftp    /incoming/user1  yes user1          nogroup 0640 dirs
upload  /ftp    /incoming/user2  yes user2          nogroup 0640 dirs
....

On our systems nogroup is the group used by httpd so that anything
uploaded this way is readable by the web server, but not by anon-ftp.
This doesn't address the problem of subsequent downloads using a web
browser if the anon-ftp directory structure is also available directly
via browsers.

This is (quite possibly) a bug in the Solaris 2.5 networking code.
Put

        /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_rexmit_interval_min 3000
        /usr/sbin/ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_rexmit_interval_initial 3000

In one of your startus scripts and see if it helps.

Note that you can alos just run these fomr the command line.  SunOS
5.5 is notorious for crappy performance over slow (read Serial PPP)
TCP/IP links.

	Is that stock 2.4? I can't get that to work on stock 2.4, but with
academ-beta-11 it does it with just the first line, however it then won't
change the permissions/owner/group properly.

As far as I can see .. it's stock 2.4 on Solaris 2.4.

I have the following entry using stock 2.4 that lets the user create sub-directories 
and upload files without any problems.

upload /export/home/me /home yes

Hi.  I'm using 242-beta11 on Sol.2.5.

I've set up a virtual domain, however, it seems that is always goes 
to the generic ftp dir, not the specified dir in the ftpaccess file.

Here's my entry from ftpaccess:
virtual 10.10.10.10  root    /web/sites/mars/ftp
virtual 10.10.10.10  banner  /web/sites/mars/ftp/welcome.msg


The perms seem ok of /web/sites/mars/ftp 755 root.misc (misc being
ftp's primary gid).  Any suggestions are welcome.

Did you apply the patches before compile?
They come with that version (in /src/patches or something like that, I 
beleive). It won't work unless you patch it work that way! :-)

Of course not. Just apply the patches and you'll have your virtual server up 
and running in no time (TIP, you might want to edit fdpd.c (I think) and edit 
the 220 line not to show the hostname, as otherwise for all virtual domains 
it'll be
your-REAL-server name FTP server ready...
instead of their IP or name, which pretty much is useless for virtual FTP ;-).

So, apply the patches and then edit ftpd.c (I think, I don't remember exactly). 
Then it should be more or less up and running. If you have any other problems, 
you'll have to get MORE/OTHER PATCHES...unfortuantley, patches (lots o' 'em!) 
are the only way to get wu-ftpd up and runnign well and as you need it to be.

I searched through the FAQ and the archive of the list and saw the question
asked but no answer so...

I'm having trouble with anonymous users being able to upload to a directory
they don't have read permissions on.

system:  BSD/OS 2.1 wu-ftpd 2.4

% cd ~ftp
% pwd
/usr/opt/anonftp
% ls -ld in.coming
drwx-wx-wt  2 root  staff  512 Jul  8 17:36 in.coming/

upload  /usr/opt/anonftp    /in.coming     yes     root    staff  0600 nodirs

That's where I'm stuck.  Everything works fine if I add the r (read) bits
to the missing places, but that lets anonymous users list off filenames
which we don't want.

Please, someone *bonk* me on the head and tell me what I am doing wrong.

Did you set the permissions to 1733?  I can't tell the difference on Linux
between setting permissions to 733 or 1733 because the 't' covers up the
'x' (should be either T or X, I suppose), so the above line is
inconclusive.  I just checked, and I can upload into my incoming directory
with the directory permissions set to 1733 (they've been at 733 up until
now).

Hi folks.  As Haralds Jass has been patiently replying to my earlier
post regarding virtual domains, I have found that the patch he 
suggested blows up on me when I try to run patch <patchfile.  I've
even split up the patch file as it contains "patches" for extensions.c,
ftpd.c and some makefiles.  Still I get errors.  Does anyone out there
have a site for possibly the "authentic" patch, in case I'm missing some
thing..

TIA.

	Im new to the list so I don't know if this has been covered, but
is there a patch to prevent ftp access to virtual domains on a machine that 
don't have definitions in /etc/ftpaccess. Currently someone can ftp
to any domain that is arped for and they get / with anon access. Im guessing 
that someone has already fixed this?
	Im using beta11 
Thanks

Well, I know how people on this list react to this question, but ...

How do I unsubscribe? I followed the instructions that were mailed
back to me, but I got something along the lines of "Unknown List" when
I attempted it.


Soooo....... how do I do this? Not that I don't like wuftpd! But I've
gotten it working to my satisfaction, so I no longer need the help of
this list.

Anyway, help?


Shin!

	Huh?!  Thats pretty strange!  I'm using a pre-compiled version
with my Linux system, so maybe I need to re-compile it and try that.
Otherwise, whats happening?  Hows the game going, and when can I host it?!

Hi Nicholas

I asked this last week, I got only one reply which I deleted by mistake
in my usual rush to delete wuftp mail.  I mailed the respondee but I dont
think he was in the mood to reply again.

Let me know if anyone contacts you directly.

Colin

how would i setup wu-ftpd to deny anonymous users from downloading files but
still allow them to list the files? I looked all through the ftpaccess man
pages, but could find anything on restricting download access. Did i miss
something? or is it not possible?

Set permissions to not allow the anon user to read the file.  Seeing the
directory listing is a function of permissions on the directory, not the
individual files in it.  Being able to read individual files is a function
of the file's permissions.

X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

     I just joined this list a few days ago because it took me so long to 
     find it.  The README file gave an old list and anytime you tried to 
     sign up it would give you the digital middle digit and tell you no 
     such list exists.  Obviously, the list moved and perhaps the old 
     instructions to signoff are no good.
     
     As of two days ago, the instuctions I got for signing off are:
     
     
     SEND       signoff WU-FTPD
     TO         listproc@mail.wustl.edu
     
     
     Hope this helps....

What is the unit of measure for the "3000" setting?  I noticed the 
default is set to 500 on my SS20/sol2.5 and I did not see a comment for 
unit of mesure in the man pages.   Is this seconds; that seems to be too 
long of measure?

One of the issues when tuning web server performance on Suns is to use 
ndd to up the tcp_conn_req_max to higher than 32.  Could this help with 
FTP servers too?

Thanks-

It's 100ths of one second.  I believe there's also a bug in the standard
Solaris 2.5 kernel which means it ignores the setting of
tcp_rexmit_interval_initial.

It might, but access profiles to FTP servers aren't the same as WWW
servers (lots more short requests in quick succession to a WWW server),
so the improvement won't be as measurable, I think.

Oops.  That's 1000ths of one second.

Yes, the directory is set 1733

I also got the suggestion that the directory be owned by ftp.  I tried that
and it did work, but this defeats the purpose of having a directory
without read permissions since the anonymous users can list off the files.
This is also being used as a trial directory so that others can set up the
same type of directory for personal uploads.  These other directories will
not be owned by ftp either.

To recap: the above listed directory gets an error

553 Could not determine cwdir: Permission denied.

when you try to PUT to it.  Any other ideas?

I know you are probably receiving some flack for this post, but I wanted to
suggest to you that the main reason these type of mailing lists work is due
to the fact that people who have success with a product/project like wu-ftp
help out people who are not having success. It is sort of the Golden Rule
of the internet. Help others as they help you, and the mutual success of
those involved can spread.

I apologize if this is out of place or out of line, but this is merely a
statement of my opinions.

Since the patches barfed majorly when using patch <patchfile,

I don't think this is possible.  How does wuftp know to use 
/foo/bar/userdir for the chrooted ftp file system for user?  The only 
info wuftp has to start with is what's in the /etc/passwd file, which 
will point it to /export/home/userdir.  The /foo/bar/etc/passwd file is 
there for use only *after* the daemon has chrooted to /foo/bar.   It's a 
cart before the horse thing.

That's consistent.  You haven't created the dev and usr/lib stuff under 
/export/home/userdir...

  Hi folks!

  I have a little problem regarding my guest ftp. I have guest ftp working
just fine, if I do it the following manner:

      On my /etc/passwd file I have

	 user's home dir = /export/home/userdir/./

  Then all I have to do is to create the usual usr, usr/bin, usr/lib, dev
and etc directories and the bin link in the user's homedir, and I have 
everything working.

  Now, what I want to do is the following:

  	I want the user to have his home directory set to something in the
/etc/passwd file. Say the user's homedir will be /export/home/userdir.
I want the user to be able to have his ftp space in /foo/bar/userdir, though.
So I created a user account, using normal means, in Solaris, with a user
directory of /export/home/userdir. And I created the dev, etc, usr/bin, 
usr/lib and bin link in /foo/bar/. The password file in /foo/bar/etc contains
the following entry:

	user:x:5555:bla bla:/foo/bar/userdir/./:/noshell


  I can log in, but I get: 

    425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number

when I try an ls. If I change the /etc/passwd entry for this user for have
his homedir point to /foo/bar/userdir/./, then ls works. Is there a way around
this?


  Thanks,

			Nelson C. L. Pedrozo

Hi all:

I'm using 2.4(2), when anyone try to use mget * the server types:

ftp> mget *
*: No such file or directory.
can't find list of remote files, oops
ftp> 

I think the server doesn't recognize the simbol *. What do I do??

i am trying to figure out how to use teh ftphosts file, but its not seeming
to work out :( to test things out, i type in:

deny * *.com


That should deny access from all users from teh *.com domain right? because
i am on *.net and i couldn't access it either. Would that line mean it would
deny access to ALL users from the *.com domain?

What did i do wrong?

If you put the dev, etc, user, lib stuff in /foo/bar then you have to
use /foo/bar for the chroot directory.  Try:

	"user:x:5555:bla bla:/foo/bar/./userdir:/noshell"

This happens when there's no /dev/tcp from the chroot'd directory -
"/foo/bar/userdir".

I've been trying to add users to my server that can only access an ftp
account, not a shell account. I tried adding a user to the /etc/passwd file
with the shell listed as /bin/false, but then the ftp server refused access
by that user. I then tried listing the shell as /bin/noshell and then
/etc/noshell. But the ftp server refused a connection by the users then too.
And then, by someone else's recommendation, i tried setting up the user with
his home directory as /dev/null, wich allowed the user to login via ftp, but
since /dev/null was set as teh home directory, instead of /home/ftp it
didn't bring the user to teh ftp server.


                                Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Whichever shell you use, it has to be in /etc/shells.  Mine has bash, 
tcsh and all our other old pals as well as /bin/false.

Try making their home directory /home/name/./ - after that it should work,
and you'll just have to check your file permissions and such.

1) Specify /bin/false as user's shell in /etc/passwd.
2) Add /bin/false to /etc/shells.

IMHO this scenario should work.

Good luck,

I've been having the same problem with using /bin/false as the shell. There 
is no shell file in my /etc directory (I'm using Solaris 2.4),
so I don't know what to do. Do I just create the shell file with a listing
of all the shells?

Dear cryption@poboxes.com (who are you as a person kind of thing?)

>>I've been trying to add users to my server that can only access an ftp
>>account, not a shell account.

Before everyone else says it, what does your /etc/shells file contain? If 
it doesn't contain /bin/false then this should solve your problem at this 
first stage.
If you have done this already, sorry for pointing this out!

Is there any way I can get a compiled version of wu_ftpd for Solaris
2.4? I having problems installing a C compiler on my system (it didn't
come with one) so I think I was wondering if there was an FTP site with
the binaries for wu_ftpd (or maybe someone could send me it). Any help
would be appreciated.

Hi everybody !

One time I made a big mistake - I have installed wu-ftpd on my computer ...

So, now I have a lot of troubles .... one of them is I do not know how I can
create new users for wu-ftpd (except FTP of cause) and create new user's groups ....

If somebody knows ... please answer or send some docs on wu-ftpd.

With best regards.

I have a script, "addftpguest", that I'm using with Solaris 2.5. I modified it 
from an Ultrix version when we moved our ftp site to a new machine. I'd include 
it here, but it's rather long and I'd need to explain some things about it. 
You'd probably have to adapt it to your server. Let me know if you want me to 
e-mail a copy to you.

I want to allow a number of clients to upload files.  I want to use Site
Group to do this, so I chrout the user to their own directory.  I have it
setup now where I can log in successfully with site group and gpass.  When I
try to upload a file, I get permission denied.  I have the users directory
set to the users user-id with other being the owning group so the server can
securely access the files to serve them out.  The mode is set to 1733 for
the directory.

I am confused on how to relate the group to the owner maybe.  In any case I
get permission denied. Can anyone offer suggestions on how I should set this up.

Thanks.

Hi guys, a friend of mine told me that wu-ftpd might support passive ftp.
Can someone confirm that? I know SUN supports the passive ftp. We are
using HP which does not have a plan to implement it yet. Please reply
to my email account. I have a problem to subscribe the mailing list.
Thanks.

Hi Pavel

Try this for adding another user (i am using different s/w - SCO UNIX - 
but I think it should work)

ftp:x:30000:30000:Anonymous FTP:/export/ftp:/nosuchshell
alpha:x:30002:30000:Anonymous FTP with access to special 
files:/export/ftp/./alpha:/bin/false

where:
./alpha is a subdirectory under /export/ftp; set owner to 'alpha'
/bin/false is an entry in /etc/shells (text file)

What this will do is, hopefully, when *alpha* logs into the ftp service, 
they are placed in the /export/ftp/alpha directory. Set file permissions 
so only they can read/write or whatever (not the group). Set a password 
for this user (as it is looked for before chroot takes place) and you do 
not want everyone to get these files. Set up a new group as normal and 
copy these lines into your ~ftp/etc/passwd and ~ftp/etc/group files.
Is this what you require? If this doesn't work, give me your ftp identity 
and I'll see what it looks like 'from the outside',
Pete

X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]

I am new to this list, so if this question is redundant of
conversations past, please bare with me...

We are using wu-ftpd (version 2.4) for some file uploads and are having
trouble with file synchronization.  It seems there is no file locking
when a PUT is initiated within the ftpd.

The problem presents itself that while that PUT is happening, another
process can come along and within FTP to a RETR on that same file
before it has completed.  This causes problems with partial files
being taken from the server. 

My questions...

- Is there any functionality within wu-ftp that will eliminate this?
- Will the next version provide for file locking on PUTS?  
- Finally, has anyone already patched the source to do this locking?

Thanks,

Hello Jim,

Thank you for your answer. I have already installed "wu-ftpd" and now I really need
to create  "ftp" user (not "ftp" or "anonymous"). I need that the user can connect
to my computer by "ftp" but not by "telnet" or something else besides that user will
not be able to change the FTP ROOT DIRECTORY "/export/ftp/".
If is possible to create such a user please mail me.

I work on SPARCstation 5, Solaris 2.4


PS: I know that I can create user with changible root directory by adding :
    "/export/ftp/./somedir" as his/her home directory into "/etc/passwd" file.
    But it is not good for me. I need that the user cannot change the FTP ROOT
    DIRECTORY "/expoet/ftp/".

Best Regards

What you need to do is:

1. Create a group in /etc/group called "ftponly".  (This is the default 
group that wu-ftpd looks for.)
2. Create your user account (e.g., "bobftp"), whose primary group 
membership should be the "ftponly" group.  Set his login shell to be 
/etc/false.  Let's assume your user's login dir is set to /export/ftp.
3. Make sure "/etc/false" appears in your /etc/shells file.  On Solaris, 
you don't have an /etc/shells file by default, so you'll have to create 
one with all valid shells plus /etc/false.
4. Check your ftpaccess file to make sure that the guestgroup setting is 
set to "ftponly".
5. Now, when "bobftp" logs in, he will be chrooted to /export/ftp.  
This is because his primary group is "ftponly".  Note that this the 
only way to cause a user other than "ftp" or "anonymous" to be chrooted 
to some dir at login time.  Also, "bobftp" cannot login via telnet, 
because his login shell is /etc/false.
6. You'll need to create the logical /dev, /etc, and /usr/lib directories 
under /export/ftp, of course.

Hope that helps...

Chris

I did all that. I can get logged in fine, but can't write any files.
When I try a PUT, the directory entry gets made (file name, correct
permissions, owner, group, etc), but the file is 0 length. I get 

200 PORT command successful.
425 data socket (0.0.0.0,20): errno 9 Bad file number.

I've gone into the source code, and tracked the problem to the socket
call in 'getdatasock', where it fails with an errno 2 and a return of
-1. It only fails when the group is ftponly. (For anonymous or a real
user, things are fine.)

I suspect it's something very obvious that I'm overlooking. Pointers
would be appreciated. The version is wu-2.4(22) on Solaris 2.4.

Hmmm.  Well-- only thing I can figure is that your filesystem for the 
ftponly user is not quite what you think... If your ftponly user's dir is 
/export/ftponly/bob, make sure you have /export/ftponly/bob/dev and 
/export/ftponly/bob/usr/lib that looks *exactly* like the corresponding 
stuff in your anon-ftp filesystem.  Beyond that, I dunno...

I am a little confused. 

I have just compiled the latest version (beta 11) for wu-ftp.  Oddly enough,
I can not seem the  get the ftpaccess file to be recongized.  I can log in
just fine, but it does not display the .message or the Welcome.msg.  

I also don't understand in the NOTES when it says that "-a" is no longer the
default.  Does this imply that the "-a" has to be added in the inetd.conf?

Any help is appricated.

I Thank everyone for their help with my problem. I got many replies, and
found that the problem was that i didn't have /bin/false listed in the
/etc/shells fine. Once I added that line, everything worked fine.

If you're using wu-ftp, you MUST have a valid shell.  Create a
/bin/ftponly script to echo a "can't log on" message and add it to
/etc/shell.  Than change the passwd file to use your new /bin/ftponly
script as the shell.

There is an example of this on p494 of "Practical UNIX & Internet
Security" by Simson Garfield & Gene Spafford.  (2nd edition, O'Reilly &
Associates)

Anth,

I think that is exactly what it says. I have the "-a" in my
inetd.conf, and it works.

Hi chaps/chapesses

I know this isn't completely wu-ftpd, but i am up to my eyes and 
somebodies just pressed the panic button. I want to transfer w4w docs to 
a PC from my FTP server, but word will not read them. (If I transfer by 
floppy from the ftp server, the PC reads them OK). I presume it's 
something to do with binary/ASCII transfer modes - could some nice person 
answer quickly!!! It's worth a pint!!!!

Hello Chris,

Thank you very much. You are quite right ! 
I have done these steps and everything is Ok.
I think it is a good guide for inexperiensed wu owners.

I had the same sort of error at first:

200 PORT command successful.
425 data socket (0.0.0.0,20): errno 9 Bad file number.

It was caused by the lack of a proper dev/tcp edvice file underneath the
new ftp directory that the user chroot's to. I had to create it using mknod.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

We have an intranet web site which accesses our ftp site, however IE =
v3.0 will not access it, mainly because it is called www.mydomain.com, =
Netscape has no trouble using ftp://www.mydomain.com but IE refuses to =
work with this and always claims the URL doesn't exist.

I aliased www.mydomain.com to be ftp.mydomain.com but that made no =
difference, I mention this because IE has no trouble with sites such as =
ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/...., so I figured perhaps it needs the ftp =
protocol and ftp site name.

Anyone have any ideas?, I didn't build the ftp site and am not real =
familiar with it's setup, so should an alias work or will I need to =
rebuild the site to call itself ftp.mydomain.com? and if so can I do =
that easily without disrupting the stuff that is already on the site and =
the users of it.

thanks,

Neil O'Brien

It's up to the PC client software / user to set the proper transfer mode. 
Sounds like you fetched in in ASCII mode.  You didn't give whether the PC
is running DOS or Windows. 

If you are using a DOS command line client, try issuing an 'image' command
just before fetching the file. 

If you are on Windows, try getting the ws_ftp client from
ftp.ipswitch.com.  It is good stuff.

IE has problems with FTP syntax, and makes a terrible FTP browser, from
what I have experienced.  It makes a great web browser, but a lousy FTP browser.

Greeting:

 I have declared a group of users with guestgroup.  They are properly 
limited (via chroot) to their personal directories, they can get and 
put files, they can do an ls of the files but dir produces no output 
to the ftp client (several have been tested).

 If I ftp in as a non-guestgroup user then dir produces the 
predictable output.

 I am running beta 11 under AIX 3.2.5, what am I missing?

Thankyou in advance,
Jim

I've had complaints from anonymous users saying that when they make a
directory for their files in /incoming, and then try uploading a file in the
directory they made, the server doesn't allow them too. How can I fix this
problem?

i am trying to figure out how to use the ftphosts file, but its not seeming
to work out :( to test things out, i type in:

deny * *.com


That should deny access from all users from the *.com domain right? because
i am on *.net and i couldn't access it either. Would that line mean it would
deny access to ALL users from the *.com domain?

What did i do wrong?


                                                thanks

Good Day All:

 I posted a message last night asking for assistance with an odd 
problem.  I had established some guestgroup users who (in short) 
would get no output from a "dir" command but did get output from a 
"ls" command when issued from their ftp client program.  Since many 
GUI clients only issue only a "dir" command this presented a problem.

 The platform in question was AIX 3.2.5 and the beta-11 release of 
wu-ftpd.

 Realizing that guestgroup users and anonymous users had similar 
requirements in terms of supporting directory structures and 
utilities I began searching the system for a script that established 
anonymous ftp accounts with the "stock" AIX ftpd.  Low and behold, 
one existed.

 I read through the script, and using it as a model created another 
script to perform the portions I needed.   It now works well.  Of 
note is the inclusion of libc.a in the guestgroup supporting 
directory structure.

 Many thanks to those who responded.

IE has problems with FTP syntax, and makes a terrible FTP browser, from
what I have experienced.  It makes a great web browser, but a lousy FTP
browser.

Subject: Very strange, inconsistent, behavior
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


I must have some *very* interesting misconfiguration somewhere; I'm
looking for suggestions.  Depending on the ftp client I use, I can
either see, or not see, the directories and files in my ftp areas.
(Sorry, I'm talking about *anonymous* ftp here.)

I'm running wu ftpd 2.4 on Linux; I used a binary that came with the
distribution, and I built one myself, they both behave the same.

When I come in using the ftp client on my own or another linux box, I
cannot see any files or directories.  I can, however, CD into
directories, and I can download files if I know their exact names.  I
get the same behavior using a web browser with an ftp: URL pointing to
my box.

When I come in using the ftp client on a sunos box, or the one that
came with Windows 95, I can see all the files and directories just
fine.

I turned on debugging logging in ftpd;

This is a relevant part of the log from the successful session on the
sunos box:

Jul 14 00:39:35 gw ftpd[13322]: Transfer complete.

This is a relevant part of the log from the unsuccessful session on
the linux box:

While there are some differences, I don't see either one as clearly
wrong.  They don't show me a way to go.  (I do have ls in ~ftp/bin).

Nonsense,=20

Ignore Microsoft at your peril!, IE v3.0 is very good but I have no =
intention of restricting users to a single browser technology anyway =
thus it has to work from more than one, it already works with Netscape. =
I have accessed other FTP sites with IE it is just mine but I'm not sure =
what the problem is, I tried creating an actual ftp address but I still =
couldn't get it to work.

Any less flippant suggestions?

I'm guessing here (since I had problems with ftphosts, too); but have you 
tried adding an "allow" line for everybody before the deny line:

> allow * *
> deny * *.com

If it works like the access file for NCSA HTTPd, rules are applied 
cumulatively, so the allow is necessary as a default...  I really don't 
know if this will work.  If it does, you should test from a *.com host, 
of course...

I've seen this, too; but not consistently.  If you do two ls's in a row, 
the second one will work.  I think it's really the output of the first 
one, though.  It seems to be some sort of synchronization problem.  The 
ouput of your client-side ftp commands seems to come back out-of-phase.

If you figure out what's causing this, please let me know!  :)

Is this a beta version of IE? Also, what OS are you using it under (curious 
to know if it's Win NT 4.0 Beta)? I tried (as I'm sure many already have)
accessing ftp://www.mydomain.com with IE 1.5 under Windows NT 3.51 and seemed
to have no problems (that are immediately obvious). 

One more clarification: does IE return a message saying it can't deliver the
FTP directory to you for some reason? Or do you get a message claiming that
www.mydomain.com doesn't exist? Or does the message indicate something else?

A domain name that begins with "ftp." doesn't have any special significance
with respect to any browser I've used. (<sarcasm type="playful"> Although 
with Microsoft, you never know... :) </sarcasm>).

are missing and the computer did not come with the Solaris CD (all the

before but I lost it by accident. Please specify the paths used in

I'm logging as an anonynous user to my ftp server 
and I use the site group and site gpass command :

ftp> quote site gpass "the-password"
200 Group access enabled.

but no chroot() to /usr3/ftp/invite occurs ! 
I'm still in /usr2/ftp which is the filesystem of my FTP server

     If Jason is concerned about obtaining an effective web browser, I 
     would have to support Jim's opinion. As a developer, MS IE is nothing 
     but a hindrance. I would say tailor your web site in compliance with 
     Netscape.

IE has problems with FTP syntax, and makes a terrible FTP browser, from 
what I have experienced.  It makes a great web browser, but a lousy FTP 
browser.

I happened to find out that the version of wu-ftpd i currently have
installed on my linux system has a large security bug. I got my hands on teh
fixed version, and want to know what i should do first before installing the
new version. What should i do to the already installed version?

Yes, I know that the beta11 version has multihost hacks. But these
weren't particularly useful, so I hacked together my own version of
multihost ftpd from the vanilla 2.4.

Perks of this are:

One line in a seperate config file which specifies ip address and
directory mapping (an example is provided in the docs/ directory).

I also put together a NetBSD 1.1A version of config.h and Makefile.

You can get the patches at:

If needed, I can probably find the time to patch it against the beta11
version of wu-ftpd.

Feedback would be appreciated.

I had a similar problem on my Solaris 2.5 box.  It was solved by getting =
all the=20
right shared libs in the ~/ftp/usr/lib.  Or get the statically compiled =
ls. the=20
ls would work but the dir command would not.  The dir command must be =
issued by=20
some clients for long listings (netscape). To prove this log in with a =
client=20
that is 'working' and do a dir instead of an ls and see if it fails.

Note however that this is getting off-topic for a wu-ftpd list.

First check if the paths to wtmp and the logfile are correct,

then, as root, overwrite the ftpd binary.

Good Day Gris:

 You appear to have an inconsistency between the group you are trying to
use the site command to access and the one you have shown in your
/etc/group and your ftpaccess file

 The site command issued in ftp changes to group "invite-ftp" but the
actual group shown is invite.


Good luck,

As far as I can determine, the chroot() is to /usr3/ftp, not to 
/usr3/ftp/invite. There's a 'cd' to invite after that. This comes
from beating my head on basically the same problem, and finally
reading the output of 'truss'.

I'd posted last week looking for why anonymous worked but guests
failed. Answer is in the chroot. I understood that it did a chroot()
to the guest directory, but it doesn't. Either I need to RTFM better,
or I need to understand more of what I know.

Any help would be extremely appreciated, to the point of shipping you
really good beer.  This has been driving me nuts, and has our customers who
want an ftp directory for uploads (that isn't going to instantly become a
warez site) breathing down my neck.

As I suggested before, rename "in.coming" to "incoming".  Take the "." out
of the name and change ftpaccess to match.  The above error is returned as
the result of a failed call to realpath() in extensions.c.  A glance at
realpath() source shows that dots in the filename are skipped, which
probably is the cause of the above error.  I didn't try to duplicate your
results. 

Don't hack the source to take out the "." check unless you fully
understand the risks involved.  These kinds of checks went in over a long
time and after many security holes.

JavaScript, realistically, has little to do with the HTML itself.  It is
enclosed in a comment so you can use it will remaining compliant to the
standards.

You have to draw the line somewhere, and following the standards is the
natural (and appropriate) place for doing it.  Nothing says you can't pull
in some new and useful features, but one should make sure it is truly
usable to their audience.  And before you pull out the Netscape has X % of
the market, don't forget a good part of that is Netscape Version 1.x.  I
won't even start arguing about how bogus those numbers are...

I have installed wu-ftpd 2.4.2.beta on a linux box.  It seems to be running quite 
well for the majority of users that try to access my site.

I am, however, having problems with a small subset of users.  For 
example, when one user tries to login, the server immediately kicks 
him off.

Looking in my /var/adm/syslog, I see the following:

Jul 17 16:04:10 linux wu.ftpd[844]: warning: can't verify hostname:gethostbyname(oneseventeen246.metawire.com) failed 
Jul 17 16:04:10 linux wu.ftpd[844]: refused connect from 204.80.117.246


I have no ftphosts file, nor can I find anything obviously wrong with 
my ftpaccess file.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

     While compiling wuftpd for HP-UX 9.X I came across a minor error.
     
        In pathnames.h, #define _PATH_WTMP is overridden by utmp.h.
        As a result the error message " wtmp /usr/adm/wtmp No such
        file or directory" is reported in /usr/adm/syslog.

Has anyone figured out a way to do this?  The man pages describe how
to tar/zip before downloading but not the other way around.  Can it be
done with an appropriate ftpconversion file?

Group,

	I've installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on a HP 712 running 9.05 and it's working really well apart from one crucial problem. When the users log on they cannot see the file or directories that exist in their accounts. All of the permissions are OK on the files. This is driving me insane and I'm sure it's something really stupid but I need help

	/etc/passwd
seantest:Akhguykjk:5001:203:Guest Account:/users/./seantest/:/bin/ksh

	/users/ftp/etc/ftpaccess
class   remote   guest,real	*

message /tmp/welcome.msg            login

log commands guest
log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound

guestgroup ftponly


	/etc/group
ftponly:*:203:seantest


	When the users logs on everything works fine then he types "ls" to see what files are in the directory and it comes back and says "command completed". The files do exist as you can type "get and/or put" and once you know the name of the file you're ok.
	Apologies for the rambling nature of the message. I will summarize.

I noticed that you are using chrooted homes for the ftp logins... Have you
set up 'bin' and possibly 'lib' directories in those homes? Since you 
are effectively chrooting their login to that part of the tree,
users are unable to to execute the system 'ls' and hence will not be 
able to see their files....

If you setup a bin and lib directory, as per anon ftp, in their homes
that should solve the problem....

This did not solve the problem either.  I was using this directory as an
example, but the name is irrellevant.  The directory is now named: 'inming'
and the same error occurrs.  (I can't use the name incoming as our stupid
sales department sold a directory with that name to a customer *blah*.)

  Working on setting up my new ftp server, and have run across
a VERY strange problem. I am using a Linux kernel version 2.0.0,
and wu-ftpd 2.4 BETA 11. I have virtual mode turned on, and have one
virtual host setup... 198.70.51.99. When I anonymously ftp to
the machine (non-virtual) I can get in, ls, all the works. When I
anonymously ftp to the virtual, and do an ls, I get nothing. Now,
many of you may think I have the ls setup wrong, but I copied everything
from the normal dir to the virtual dir, and set same ownership AND
permissions. Here is where the problem gets tricky... if I ftp to
the virtual from my windows 95 box, and do an ls, I can see everything.
It seems to only creep up when ftping into the virtual from a linux
machine... Any suggestions...? To see this strange thing.. the real
machine is ftp1.eznet.net, and the virtual is ftp.rochester.org. Hope
someone knows whats going on here.

Put the absolute path to the ftp root directory in between the 'upload'
keyword and the relative path from the ftp root.  A couple of examples are
below. Does that fix it? 

upload  /ftp/root/dir     *             no
upload  /ftp/root/dir     /incoming     yes     root    daemon  0400

This is a DNS mismatch for the site that failed.  Looks like you're
running ftpd from behind tcp wrappers and wrappers is configured or
compiled with PARANOID. 

Two nslookups are below.  The first does the reverse lookup on the IP
address, then tries to verify that name with a forward lookup.  Oops --
didn't match.  PARANOID will refuse a connect from such a site.

The answer is to fix the DNS, not remove PARANOID.

I think the ftp account needs read permission on the in.coming directory. Try
a chmod o+r on in.coming. The files under in.coming will be unreadable because
of the 0600 line in ftpacces, so there is no real harm in letting your users

	Thanks for the speedy responses, especially to Mark W. de Raad and to Michael Brennen. My problem was as expected embarassingly simple to solve, just had to put /bin/ls in the guest directory structure.

	My original question:


Group,

	I've installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on a HP 712 running 9.05 and it's working really well apart from one crucial problem. When the users log on they cannot see the file or directories that exist in their accounts. All of the permissions are OK on the files. This is driving me insane and I'm sure it's something really stupid but I need help

	/etc/passwd
seantest:Akhguykjk:5001:203:Guest Account:/users/./seantest/:/bin/ksh

	/users/ftp/etc/ftpaccess
class   remote   guest,real	*

message /tmp/welcome.msg            login

log commands guest
log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound

guestgroup ftponly


	/etc/group
ftponly:*:203:seantest


	When the users logs on everything works fine then he types "ls" to see what files are in the directory and it comes back and says "command completed". The files do exist as you can type "get and/or put" and once you know the name of the file you're ok.
	Apologies for the rambling nature of the message. I will summarize.


	Sean.

I am not running under tcp wrappers.  Nor do I have the indicated

I am not running from behind tcp wrappers, at least I didn't install 
it . 

I'm afraid you lost me when you suggested I fix DNS.  I have the same 
results from nslookup that you do.  Any further pointers?

Look at the ftp line in your /etc/inetd.conf.  If it looks similar to the
line below (tcpd is the key) you are running ftp behind tcp wrappers. 

ftp stream  tcp nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/wu.ftpd -t300 -a

Do you have a /etc/host.allow and /etc/hosts.deny file?  These control
specific services for tcp wrappers.

The latest copy of tcp_wrappers (7.4) is at
<URL:ftp://ftp.win.tue.nl/pub/security/>.

The problem is on the *other* end.  They have to fix it, not you.

For DNS, get the O'Reilly book on "DNS and Bind" by Albitz/Liu.  See
http://www.ora.com/ for more info on the book.

I run a wuftp-2.4 server on my machine.  We're also a Netscape mirror site.  
To qualify for a netscape mirror, we had to allow 100 concurrent FTP 
sessions.  I have 100 remote set in my configs, but when i do an ftpcount it 
almost constantly sits around 98-100.  I did a 'ps' on the system and looked 
at pid dates, and some were 3 days old!  Is there a problem with FTP 
disconnecting users or should i update, recompile, etc?

ANy help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Well, you certainly seem to be.  Is there a line like 'tcpd wu.ftpd' in
your inetd.conf?

You should contact hostmaster@metawire.com and get him to fix his DNS
files.  I'll withhold any comments about his competency.  What he needs
to to is add an "A" record for oneseventeen246.metawire.com.

BTW, I did a 'dig @metawire.metawire.com axfr metawire.com' and got a
HUGE number of lines back (3900, in fact).  Looks like he has no
definitions for anyone in the 204.80.117.0 subnet at all.

Subject: Problems with beta.11 on Solaris-2.5

I compiled the beta.11 on Solaris-2.5 and have all the proper configs and libs in place; however,
when I connect as anonymous I can only do a "ls" but not a "ls -l" or a "dir".  "ldd" reports for
/bin/ls:

	libw.so.1 =>	 /usr/lib/libw.so.1
	libintl.so.1 =>	 /usr/lib/libintl.so.1
	libc.so.1 =>	 /usr/lib/libc.so.1
	libdl.so.1 =>	 /usr/lib/libdl.so.1

And the libs I have installed in ~ftp/lib:

Can't seem to figure out what the problem is... perhaps I need to create a statically-linked "ls"?
I heard there were problems creating a statically-linked ls on Solaris due do libld.a.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks...

That's how I started.  (Yes I switched it back to make sure.)  Same error.
I did notice that upon trying to recompile the source there is a realpath.c
module that defines a function realpath().  This conflicts with an existing
declaration of realpath() in /usr/include/stdlib.h:158.  I'm starting to
wonder if the BSD/OS 2.1 built in realpath() function was used instead of
the one included with wu-ftpd.

Anyone have any experience with BSDi and making anonftp and unreadble
directories work properly?

Do you have a -a in your ftp startup in /etc/inetd.conf?  This is the
most common error that causes problems like this since it doesn't read
the ftpaccess file at all.

Speaking of upload commands relating to virtual domains.  I would like
to see somthing like a :include: capability in the virtual address
that allows different ftpaccess files for each virtual domain.  I
find that the upload syntax specifying the root of the anon-ftp user
in the system /etc/password file rather useless because it means that
all virtual directories must be under the base ftp directory or the
upload command doesn't work.  It would seem to me that this path
should be the path of the virtual root rather than the /etc/passwd
entry for the ftp user.

  If anyone is interested, I just finished hacking 2.4 Beta 11 and
modified the class structure in ftpaccess to conform to the following:

class <class name> <local addr> <typelist> <addrglob> [<addrglob> ...]

  I use this patch, so I can track how many people are on each
of my virtual ftp hosts. And it allows you to assign limits
which can be imposed on virtual hosts. For example... we do
virtual hosting for a company fortevr.com, and on the same machine
is our primary ftp. So I do this:

class fortevr 198.70.51.99 anonymous,guest 	*
class local   198.70.51.31 real			*
class remote  198.70.51.31 anonymous,guest	*

limit fortevr	50	Any	/etc/msgs.forte.toomany
limit remote	200	Any	/etc/msgs.forte.toomany

  This has an interesting side effect, in that none of my users
can real login to the 198.70.51.99 address as well. If anyone is
interested in this patch, let me know and I'll clean it up
and post it.

I just obtained and built wu-ftp 2.4.2b11 on an hp-ux 10.01 series 800
server.  We have it working as far as I can tell.  I have one question
though:  Is it possible to configure or modify wu-ftpd so that you can
have virtual anonymous users?  

By that I mean if we are virtually hosting company1.com, charity2.org,
and company3.com in addition to our 'real' name of host.net is it
possible to set things up so that:
 
ftp charity2.org allows a login of anonymous to go to
/virtual/home/charity1/ftp; while

ftp to company2.com and a login of anonymous goes to
/virtual/home/company2/ftp; and 

ftp to host.net with a login of anonymous will put them in
/var/home/ftp. 

I gather not from the current docs but has anybody got any ideas on how
to make this work?

Regards,

 Not sure if it will do that on your system, but it does have support
for doing that. And it does work very nicely under Linux.

  Anyone interested in this patch, I have made it available on my
anonymous ftp site... check it out and tell me what you think.

   ftp.eznet.net:/pub/wu-ftpd/patches

  Not much there yet, but I'm working on a few other cool virtual
patches which those of you doing virtual hosting might find attractive.

Yup.  Read the doc VIRTUAL.FTP.SUPPPORT (yes, it is spelled that way) in
the beta 11 distribution.  You can do anonymous, guest and real ftp to a
virtual site.  I have three running that way.

I guess that I must be thick or something.  I have built the server 
with the -DVIRTUAL CFLAG and I can't see any difference in the 
behavior of the program.  When I attempt to login via anonymous I end 
up in the ftp root of the real host name, not in the virtual server 
root.  Is there something else that need to be configured?  A copy of 
my ftpaccess file is included:

 Looks to me like you just need to get rid of the []'s around the
ip's in the virtual entries. Try that and see what happens. 

 I assume that you have already configured the machine for multiple
IP's on the same interface, since you are connecting to those IP's and
getting the ftpd atleast...

Thanks for the help.

I removed the [ and the ] around the virtual IP.  Nothing changed in the
behavior of the anonymous ftp.  I am still connecting directly to the
real ftp root.

Is there anywhere else that I should be looking? /etc/passwd?

Something is not adding up here.  I just had a dig around in your DNS, and
I only see one IP address in A records in the whole thing.  In the DNS
below, grognard.org and home.grognard.org are the same IP address on the
same host.  You need different IP addresses assigned to run virtual
servers on the same host.  Did I miss something?

As it turns out, grognard.org and grognard.com are aliases for the same
site.  They have to have the same IP.  Other virtual sites on our host
are 205.206.207.70, 205.206.207.69, etc.  These have their own DNS
entries and A class record.

If anyone is interested...

I found the current virtual implentation under beta 11 to be rather
inflexible. So I decided to hack in my own virtual support. I wasn't
clear whether or not beta-11 had any security issues, and I know that
2.4 hasn't had any CERT advisories on it in quite some time, leading
me to believe it is at least as secure, if not more so, than 2.4.2
beta. So my hacks are against 2.4. But wait, it gets better (or worse,
depending on your perspective)... I hacked the support into 2.4 after
I applied the Linux patches. I also applied a patch to take care of
the pasv-mode zombie problem.

With that all said, here is a generic description of what I did
to see if anyone still wants my hacks:

Basically, wherever any portion of wu-ftpd refers to a config file of
any sort, I placed a "%s" into the file name (where it is defined in
pathnames.h). Then when I call wu-ftpd (or any of its support
programs), I pass it an argument (I use the virual host name) which it
inserts into the pathname wherever the "%s" occurs. I've written a
wrapper (in perl currently) which calls wu-ftpd with the appropriate
argument depending on which virtual IP the socket is connected to.

To make this a little clearer, here is part of my pathnames.h:

 #ifdef VIRTUAL
 #define _PATH_FTPUSERS  "/lw/ftp/conf/%s-ftpusers"
 #define _PATH_FTPACCESS "/lw/ftp/conf/%s-ftpaccess"
 #define _PATH_PIDNAMES  "/var/pid/ftp.pids-%s-%s"
 #define _PATH_XFERLOG   "/var/log/ftp/%s-xferlog"
 #define _PATH_PRIVATE   "/lw/ftp/conf/%s-ftpgroups"
 #define _PATH_ROOT      "/lw/ftp/accounts/%s"
 #ifdef  HOST_ACCESS
 #define _PATH_FTPHOSTS  "/lw/ftp/conf/%s-ftphosts"
 #endif /* HOST_ACCESS */

And here is my perl-wrapper:

 #!/usr/bin/perl
 $conf_file="/lw/ftp/conf/vftphosts";
 $mysockaddr = getsockname(STDIN);
 ($family, $port, $myaddr) =  unpack("S n a4 x8",$mysockaddr);

 open(FILE, "$conf_file") || die "Can't open $conf_file\n";
 while(<FILE>) {
    next if /^\s*#/;
    next if /^\s*$/;
    chop;
    ($hostname, $cmd) = split(/\s/,$_,2);
    ($name, $aliases, $addrtype, $length, @addrs) = gethostbyname ($hostname);
    foreach (@addrs) { exec $cmd if $_ eq $myaddr; }
 }

Then, my vftphosts file has entries like so:

 #hostname		command
 foobar.com              /local/sbin/vftpd foobar.com
 barfoo.com              /local/sbin/vftpd barfoo.com


I've also hacked addiional support for the ftpusers file. Users with a
"+" before their name are explicitly allowed. Users with a "-" before
their name, or appearing without a "+" or a "-" are explicitly
disallowed. Also, a file with a "-" at the end will deny any users
that have not appeared without a "+" entry. A file with a "+" at the
end, or no "+" or "-" at the end will allow all users that have not
been explictly denyed. Because of this implementation, it is
compatible with "old-style" ftpusers files, while still providing
additional functionality. And remember, the ftpusers file is per
virtual-host. This means you have exact control over which users are
allowed onto each virtual ftp server.

This implementation allows maximum flexibilty, since it is like having
a wu-ftpd configured for each virtual host to use its own set of
configuration files. It also allows for interesting possibilties. You
can run ftpshut on any of the virtual-hosts, and it will read that
hosts' ftpaccess to determine where to put the shutdown message. You
can also run ftpwho or ftpwhich with to determine how many users a
particular ftpd is handling. You also get to configure a 


I've been running my "vftpd" for about a month now under a light
load. As far as I can tell, I've fixed any bugs I had introduced.
I do not use the ftphosts or ftpgroups files, so I haven't really
tested them, but I think my support for them is "correct."

I should (and probably will) make a few other changes. For example,
when syslog is called, it would be nice to see which "vftpd" is making
the entry. Also, the "ftpd server ready" message which appears on
login still spits out the name of the host it is running on, and not a
"virtual" host name. These are all rather trivial changes, I just
haven't gotten around to them yet.

Anyone interested?

If enough people think that this method of virtual-ftpd support is
good, I could probably make these same changes to whatever the current
beta of 2.4.2 is. I guess that this method of virtual support could
even live alongside the current method (of virtual support). I think
that this method is much less elegant, but it provides a lot more
options for configuring vitual hosts, which is what I was looking for.

        Hi everyone,

I've been thru the archive of the list and have noticed that the ls command
for anonymous users is a common problem. But I haven't seen anyone having
this problem under linux ?

You've all certainly seen this already, the results of an ls command:

Now I did try to recompile ls statically. Didn't change anything.
I put a libc.so5 in ~ftp/lib.  Didn't change anything.

To those of you who did make it work under linux, how did you do it ?

Thanks in advance

Dear wu-ftpd users

Having just recently installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on Solaris 2.3 I really only 
have one problem. This concerns the ls command. The command is tested in 
a chroot environment i.e. chroot /home/somedir /bin/ls and works 
perfectly. 

When invoking ls from an ftp client, the two first columns of output are 
missing. When activating logging of commands from the server, it is 
clear that this problem only arises when the NLST command is selected. 
The LIST command always works.

In addition, the results from ls are displayed one file per line. I.e. 
the files are output in a single column.

Has anyone seen anything like this ?

For some reason I can't get chroot to work properly.  I use the /./   
convention in my password file.  Anonymous users work fine, but real   
users have access to the entire system.  Where do I look?

Hello ftpadmin fellows :)

Here is my little big nightmare.

I run wu-2.4.2 academ BETA 11 on a P-100 with 48 Megs and 20 Gigs of HDD
and a 3COM 3C509B.
The O/S is Linux 1.2.13 and it seems to be really OK.

Now the problem.

With EVERY O/S version > than the 1.2.13 i get every random times (10 is
an average) a weird death from the server which stops misteriously to send
packets when it reaches the 49152nd byte.

Ethernal glory to whom will try to help me with this stuff. :)

                                Ftpadmin of ftp.flashnet.it

P.S. Don't suggest me to change OS! :))

There are three classes of users: anonymous, guest and real.  Anonymous
you know; guest is a hybrid of real and anonymous.  "real" logins by
definition have access to the whole filesystem (within file and directory
permission limits).  guest users get chroot'ed, and that must be what you
are trying to do. 

My guess is that you don't have some aspect of the guest stuff set up
correctly and that is why the chroot is not being done.  Get the howto
below and go over it carefully and that should clean it up for you.

You can do it yourself with a single e-mail message.

Send mail to: listproc@mail.wustl.edu

with NO SUBJECT and the words "unsubscribe wu-ftpd" in the body (minus 
quotes, of course).  That should do it.

My company wants to setup some virtual domains for our subsidiary

scanned the docs, but can't find a mention of virtual domains.  Is
there a place that tells how to go about this?  Thanks.

Can someone explain how ftp shut works? I assume that ftpshut writes some 
file which inhibits ftpd from accepting connections.. WHat is the name of 
that file?  After ftpshut is run, how do I re-enable ftpd and allow it to 
accept connections?  In the documentation I see no notion of how to 
reenable it...

I was wondering about that myself, having the same assignment.  Just this
afternoon I ran across the answer:

Hi, Dear wu-ftpd users,


I have already reported the same problem as John Sletten described. I just
installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-11 on Solaris 2.5 , but the result of "ls" was
incorrect. The first two characters of filenames was missing. 

with kind regards,

Smells like the SYSV / BSD directory incompatibility. Did you compile
wu-ftpd with /usr/ucb/cc? If so, don't. When you are using gcc, I think
it is possible that gcc is configured wrong, but I don't know that one
for sure ...

(I'm not on the list, so please respond directly...)

I'm trying to install wu-ftpd-2.5 on a SunOS 5.5 machine but not
having much luck at it.  I finally peppered getdatasock() with
fprintf()s after staring at the message:

ftp> dir
425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.
ftp> 

for about 2.5 hours.  I traced it down to the very innocuous

	s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);

the AF_INET should be a PF_INET, but they are defined to the
same thing so no matter.

I compiled via "gcc -fpcc-struct-return" since I didn't have
the stock Sun C compiler around.  There are no structs
involved in this call, however, so that can't have been it.

(on a tangent, I was getting warnings until I applied the
following patch:

*** support/authuser.c# Fri Apr  1 11:03:53 1994
--- support/authuser.c  Tue Jul 23 20:47:58 1996

  #include <sys/stat.h>
--- 11,16 ----

but this is not involved in the bug).

Given a rather weak knowledge of Solaris, I looked at /etc/netconfig
and /devices/pseudo/clone@0:tcp and they all look fine.  I'm
really stumped.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks,

-Philip

Hello!

This is maybe a faq, so please forgive me asking, but the provided
documentation didn't help me any further. I've got problems with
chroot()-Acounts. Even my anonymous-User as also any REAL user that i've set
chroot (via guestgroup in ftaccess) can't see any file or directory after
login. A pwd produces a "/" wich seems correct to me. The other acounts work
all fine. I've set the bin/ and etc/ - dirs for the chroot-users as
descriped. Their passwd-entries looks like:

        tii:!:222:205::/usr/local/WWW/doc/tii/./:/etc/ftponly
        ftp:!:224:-2:Anonymous FTP-User:/home/ftp/./:/etc/ftponly

205 is my guestgroup. I start the ftpd via inetd:

        ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/etc/ftpd ftpd -a

My ftaccess looks like:

        class   all   real,guest,anonymous  *
        limit   all 5   Any   /usr/local/etc/wuftpd/msgs/msg.dead
        guestgroup ftponly
        readme  README*    login
        readme  README*    cwd=*
        message /welcome.msg            login
        message .message                cwd=*
        # compress        yes             local remote
        # tar             yes             local remote
        log commands real,anonymous
        log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound
        shutdown /usr/local/etc/wuftpd/msgs/shutmsg
        email bayer@bix.de

And for the end, I'am working under a RS6000/220 AIX3.2. If you have any
tips, solutions or suggestions please let me know!

Thanks in advance
Claus

The only suggestion I would have is that make SURE you have the
appropriate directories, etc, bin, dev, usr, located at the locations
the tii and ftp accounts consider home, ie:

	/usr/local/WWW/doc/tii/[bin,lib,etc,usr]
		and
	/home/ftp/[bin,lib,etc,usr]

Hi, Dear Ronald,

Thank you very much for your reply to the ls problem. 

You are right, it is actually the SYSV/BSD directory incompatibility problem. 
By default, the system uses /usr/ucb/cc, not /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc. When I 
changed the path of cc, the problem was gone.  Thank you again for your 
help.

with kind regards,

Hallo Claus,

ich bin gerade dabei einen Web-Server mit zus=E4tzlichen Diensten wir =
z.B. FTP und e-Mail Weiterleitung einzurichten.
Das System ist eigentlich nur mal zum Testen gedacht und basiert auf =
FreeBSD.

Beim Einrichten des FTP-Servers hatte ich das gleiche Problem wie Du, =
habe des Raetsels Loesung Dank diverser FAQ relativ schnell gefunden.

Die Sache ist ganz einfach.

Du benoetigst in Deinem FTP-Verzeichnis die Unterverzeichnisse /etc und =
/bin.
In das /bin Verzeichnis musst du die Datei f=FCr das Kommando ls =
kopieren.
Danach chmod 111 ls ausfuehren und schon  muesste alles passen.

Das Verzeichnis ftp/etc benoetigst Du fuer eventuelle Passwort und =
Group-Dateien, wenn Du nur bestimmten Usern den Zugriff auf Dein =
FTP-Archiv gestatten willst.

Ein gutes deutsches Buch zu diesem Thema hat uebrigens den Titel =
Internet-Server Einrichten und Verwalten und ist im Thomson Verlag =
erschienen, wenn Du willst kann ich Dir auch die ISBN schicken.

Also Claus, ich hoffe ich konnte Dir helfen.

Uebrigens bin ich dauernd auf der Suche nach Kontakten mit Leuten, die =
sich ebenfalls mit dem Aufbau und der Betreuung von verschiedenen =
Internet-Diensten befassen. Es waere daher echt toll, wenn Du mir ein =
bischen was ueber Deine Taetigkeiten in diesem Bereich mailen wuerdest. =
Ausserdem wuerde es mich sehr freuen, wenn wir weiterhin zwecks =
Erfahrungsaustausch in Kontakt bleiben koennten.

Ach ja, bevor ich es vergesse, auf Sun un Solaris Systemen musst Du =
uebrigens noch ein Verzeichnis mit dem Namen ftp/dev erzeugen und dort =
die Dateien ld.so und libc.so kopieren. Ich weiss nicht ob Du dies =
benoetigst, aber wenn doch kann ich Dir gerne die komplette Anleitung =
mailen.=20


Also bis dann,

Martin Kandlbinder

Betreff: 	chroot-Acount didn't see anything

Hello!

This is maybe a faq, so please forgive me asking, but the provided
documentation didn't help me any further. I've got problems with
chroot()-Acounts. Even my anonymous-User as also any REAL user that i've =
set
chroot (via guestgroup in ftaccess) can't see any file or directory =
after
login. A pwd produces a "/" wich seems correct to me. The other acounts =
work
all fine. I've set the bin/ and etc/ - dirs for the chroot-users as
descriped. Their passwd-entries looks like:

        tii:!:222:205::/usr/local/WWW/doc/tii/./:/etc/ftponly
        ftp:!:224:-2:Anonymous FTP-User:/home/ftp/./:/etc/ftponly

205 is my guestgroup. I start the ftpd via inetd:

        ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/etc/ftpd ftpd =
-a

My ftaccess looks like:

        class   all   real,guest,anonymous  *
        limit   all 5   Any   /usr/local/etc/wuftpd/msgs/msg.dead
        guestgroup ftponly
        readme  README*    login
        readme  README*    cwd=3D*
        message /welcome.msg            login
        message .message                cwd=3D*
        # compress        yes             local remote
        # tar             yes             local remote
        log commands real,anonymous
        log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound
        shutdown /usr/local/etc/wuftpd/msgs/shutmsg
        email bayer@bix.de

And for the end, I'am working under a RS6000/220 AIX3.2. If you have any
tips, solutions or suggestions please let me know!

Thanks in advance

This has to do with Solaris' header is different from the rest.
Check out my bookmarks http://funky.ljx.com/~haohui/mine.html,
there is a link to Solaris FAQ, which has the solution to
this common problem.

I had this problem too or at least something very similar. What you need to
do is to read the man page for ftpd on your solaris machine and follow the
instructions on how to set up an ftp site. There are several steps which
differ slightly from the wu-ftpd instructions. 

It looks like you may be missing a few libraries. Below is the list of the
shared libraries you will need to copy.

   ~ftp/usr/lib
                 Make this directory owned by the super-user  and
                 unwritable by anyone.  Copy the following shared
                 libraries from /usr/lib into this directory.:

                 ld.so*
                 libc.so*
                 libdl.so*
                 libintl.so*
                 libw.so*
                 libnsl.so*
                 libsocket.so*
                 nss_nis.so*
                 nss_nisplus.so*
                 nss_dns.so*
                 nss_files.so*
                 straddr.so*


Good luck

Subject: FYI - file locking...
Content-Type: text
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


A few weeks ago, I sent out an inquiry for file locking within ftpd.
I am trying to prevent the situation where a STOR is currently active
and a RETR is able to pull the same file at the same time.  

There didn't seem to be any information out there on this subject so I
went ahead and made a few changes to the source code.

If there are others interested in seeing the changes, let me know.

In concept, all that is being done is a 

lockf (int fp, F_TLOCK, (long) 0) when the put occurs, and a 
lockf (int fp, F_TEST, (long) 0) when the get occurs.

If there is any information on security concerns with this, or there
is a person willing to look over the changes to make sure I didn't put
in some enormous security risk, let me know and I'll send along the
changes.

Thanks,

The problem is related to the devices in the ftp/dev directory. When
I experienced this problem it was related to a nosuid mount.

Hope that helps

We are running OSF/1 v 3.2c, and whenevr anyone tries to connect to our 
ftp server, they get the message:

421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Login failed.
No control connection for command: No such file or directory

Our logs say exiting on signal 11.  Any ideas?

Sounds like you need to make a /dev off your main ftp dir, ie
/home/ftp/dev.  The devs we have are "tcp", "ticotsord", "udp",
"zero".  Man mknod to find out how to add devs.

Thanks to everyone who responded.  It was indeed a problem pertaining
to /dev and the various "clone" files (i.e. zero, tcp, udp, ticotsord).

I have written a white paper about doing multiple domains using Apache with
SunOS 4.1.3.  I realize this is not an ftpd solution, so I don't encourage
responses to this letter in this group.  However, I thought it might help
you out, and anyone else out there who needs to do this, since it does seem
to go hand-in-hand with hosting virtual ftp sites.  For a copy of the white
paper, please request via e-mail to ken@impulse.net.

Hello,

We recently installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-b-11 to support guest FTP. It works 
fine, but while we, and a fewothers outside our network can access this 
site through Netscape, many other people cannot. 

The ftp site is ftp.tetrahedron.org and we have hyperlinks to it (e.g., 
<A HREF="ftp://ftp.tetrahedron.org/pub">FTP</A>) on the website, 
http://www.tetrahedron.org.

Any clues?

Please include your reply to office@cove.com as we do not subscribe to 
this list...Thanks!

Hi

Thanks for all help regarding ls problem on Solaris 2.3
I followed the advice of Ronald.Hello@cs.utwente.nl and compiled
wu-ftpd using gcc instead of /usr/ucb/cc.

This appears to have solved the problem !

I have just compiled the latest version of WU-FTPD using the latest version
of GCC on a Sun Ultra Server 2 running Solaris 2.5.1.

Does ANYONE know what this error and is there any way around it?  I have
asked the list before without answer.  

Thanks in advance.

Subject: Linux problems, solutions, and more problems...
MIME-Version: 1.0

I have a linux 2.0.1 machine with GCC 2.7.2 and libc-5.3.9 - P166, 128M
RAM. I recently attempted to re-install wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta11 and had all
sorts of headaches (of course it was during one of the highest demand
periods for our ftpable product...)

First of all I encountered the odd redefinition of the DIR struct type
that makes glob.c barf. I circumvented this by copying the DIR typedef
from dirent.h and creating my own DIR structure. It seems that within the
GCC includes the following proves false:

#if defined(DIRENT_ILLEGAL_ACCESS) || \
        (defined(__SVR4_I386_ABI_L1__) && !defined(INTERNAL_LINUX_C_LIB))

so the DIR struct gets defined as

typedef struct DIR DIR;

Nice huh?...

I'm going to go hit up the linux kernel mailing list to get a little more
info about the above define... I can send out a patch for glob.c, but I
think there is one already in the mailing list archive.

I had all sorts of other problems, so I tried all the basic repairs that
came up in the list archive, including statically compiling ls, placing
the elf libs into ~ftp/lib as per the FAQ... I got the server working and
using (supposedly) the ftpaccess file by invoking the -a (the man page is
wrong...) My server would vend files, and ls would operate, but I couldn't
track outgoing ftp's which is huge in my business even though I was
invoking with the -a flag in inetd.conf and had the following in my
ftpaccess file:
log transfers anonymous,real,guest inbound,outbound

I finally solved this problem by ignoring the docs and putting a -o -i in
the command line. If I'm correct about all these behavior points, it
would make some good sense to place these facts in the FAQ...

Now, I still have two odd problems. The time reported in xferlog is off by
three hours (this is minor and I haven't researched it a lot, so don't
worry about it.) The REAL PROBLEM that I have is that I'm finding that ls
works intermittently with an error along the lines of:
Address in use, can't bind 206.100.254.1,20

Which is hostIP plus port 20. I know this means that its having a problem
getting a bind on the data port, but this only happens with ls. If I
follow a ftp URL I can still transfer data without a problem.

Ideas? Suggestions?

Hi Troy,


I'm using the BETA-11 release, so I realy don't know if this would work for your wu-ftp release.
The makefile for FreeBSD is Makefile.fbs in /makefiles.
But there is allso a script called build, which can make the whole compiling and installing stuff for you. Call it this way: ./build fbs

Please drop me a line how it works.

with greetings from germany

I am just in the process of installing wu-ftpd on a FreeBSD machine.

I was wondering if I should go with gen or BSD settings (makefiles and config files).

Thanks,

I'm running wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta11 on SunOS 4.1.3. When I come in as
anonymous from a shell I get the banner displayed just fine before the
userid prompt. However when using netscape with a ftp:// url all I get is
a list of the files and no banner. I know this can be done since I've seen
it on other sites. Anyone care to shed some light on how things need to be
setup for this?

Thanks in advance,
Scott

Scott,

Rather than the banner command, try using *message <filename> login* in 
ftpaccess file. This works fine for Netscape (depending on the file type; 
i.e. html works on 1.22 only)

We are having a problem, which someone may be able to help
with: when getting a remote directory listing, the 'dir' command
returns an empty list, whereas the 'ls' command works. Also when
using a Windows FTP this causes problems as the Windows FTP thinks
there are no files to choose, and won't transfer!

We are using Solaris 2.3 on Sun.

Any suggestions you may have would be usefull.

I apologize if I'm asking for data you've already given.  I must have
missed your first few posts.  

What OS are you running?  Is this a fresh compile on the current
system?  Are you using any binaries from other systems?  If so, which?
Any funny compile errors?  Signal 11 is SIGSEGV.  Which, if I remember
correctly, is memory violations - don't know for sure though.  If you
are on solaris 2.x, try using the truss command on the ftpd and see
where it's bombing.  If not, are there any utilities for tracing
system calls on a process?  Or mabye try and recompile ... ??

I have tried all of that stuff, recompiled about 8 times.  I am running 
OSF/1 3.2c, We were running this program on our old system (v1.3, hell of 
an install), but as soon as we upgraded, we began to get these errors.  
If anyone else out there is running OSF/1 3.2 and wu-ftpd, please tell me 
how you did it.

I noticed that the binary seems to execute fine until you enter in a 
userid, the passwd file format on the 3.2c changed, do you think this 
could be a problem?

I just built wu-ftpd 2.4 and installed. All seems to work well, except
I can not see user names when getting long listings of files as a
logged in anonymous ftp user. As a real user it's fine.  So...I
suspect somethign wrong with the passwd file in ~ftp/etc but can't
figure out what.  Permissions are set as suggested in the README
for wuftp.  This is on Solaris 2.5.  If anyone has a suggestion, I'd
be most appreciative.

If you mean you only see the uid, try adding /usr/lib/nss_files.so*
(and perhaps other nss_ libs if you're running NIS/NIS+/whatever) to 
~ftp/usr/lib. This is documented in the man page for the ftpd that 
comes with Solaris, but not in wu-ftpd.
 
In fact, the solaris man page lists all of the libs below: a couple of
them don't seem to be needed, but it doesn't hurt to throw them all
in. It also claims you need to copy /etc/netconfig into ~ftp/etc, but
I'm having no trouble without it.

We have a bunch of Sun SPARCs running Solaris 2.5.  Wu-ftpd 2.4.2b11
is installed on each of them.  We are getting more SSes, so I want to
centralize the system management.  On one machine, I setup the NISkit
1.2, and plan to export user directories from this machine.  To make
sure things, I set aside one machine for testing.

A test account was created for staff (myself, gid 10).  No problems.
FTPing from another machines to the test machine works.  

I then created another test account using a different group (gid =
3000).  After Logging in the test machine from other machines, a dir
or ls always produces the infamous

425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.

Changing the gid for this test account from 3000 to 10 (staff), then
both dir and ls worked again!

I did ypcat group, the test group (gid 3000) is in the listing.  So, it
can't be caused by missing gid. I was able to login, so password was
taken from the NIS without doubt.

I would appreciate it very much for some hints why this is so and whether
there is a way to fix the problem.

Thanks,

I'm trying to install the ftpd and have run into a few snags.
I feel a little wierd broadcasting such a newbie question.

Under solaris 2.5 I had trouble with the make Install command the
/usr/sbin/install command I have loaded seems to use a different syntax than
the makefile needs.  I basically did it by hand.

My problem is that I can't seem to log in.  I am using only real acct's 
(so far), my motivation for wu-ftpd is the logging and chroot of 
password protected acct's.  I get the message login incorrect with
nothing to the log file (other than the connect message from inetd).

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I seem to have missed a couple of posts on this subject (saw your original
message, but never any of the "stuff" your are referring to), so I might be
out of order here, hope you will forgive me.

I installed wu-ftp 2.4 on one of our OSF/1 V3.2 machines. After
installation, I had errors somewhat similar to yours: "real users" could not
connect, while anonymous users could connect. It turned out the problem was
with the encrypt routine for password checking. I have enhanced security set
on on the OSF system, and wu-ftp could not cope with that. Just for the
experiment, I switched to normal security, and then everything would work
fine. Naturally, I decided to not use wu-ftp :-), and keep enhanced security
on. But now I read that the newest (beta) of wu-ftp has additional code for
coping with enhanced security. I didn't yet bother to check it out.

I guess the bottomline is that I did get wu-ftp running on my OSF/1 V3.2,
and I still have the binaries and setup files. Which version of wu-ftp are
you running, and do you have enhanced security on? Do you have problems with
all users, or only with "real users"?

Best regards,
Bart Verspagen

wu-ftpd version 2.4 on an HP running 9.04. I have used the example
files under doc/examples as templates and stuffed them into the
appropriate directories according to the pathnames.h file and
the command ckconfig ok's all locations. Now if the ftphosts
file exists I can't use ftp at all I get "530 User joeb access
denied." immediately after entering the username and C/R. If I
remove the ftphosts file I can use ftp but without any restrictions.
Any clues here?

Can someone explain how to go about setting up an ftp site so that 
a remote user can have access to just a specific directory without
actually giving them a shell. I would like to have the user prompted
for a password if they are coming in with Netscape and also be 
prompted for a password if they're coming in through a command line
ftp session. Is this possible?

Yup,

Managing Internet Information Services from O'Reilly & Associates Pg. 80 
mentions how to create a restricted shell.

Ok

There are three things to do.

1.	Make sure that your user is set up with a shell like /bin/false

2.	Make sure that their home directory is where you want them to go.

3.	Make sure that /bin/false is added to /etc/shells

So a typical entry in the passwd file might look something like:

userid:cnskjssdke73i439i:xxx:yyy:usersname:/home/userid/./:/bin/false

If I have missed some other required perameter fit it in where ever it
goes and make the necessary mental adjustment. This setup will permit
ftp login under their user name and password but will cause telnet to
fail.  If you need to disable ftp access for the user just add their
name to ftpusers which dispite its name is a list of userids which may
NOT use FTP access.

This does not seem to work with SunOS 4.1.3.

My /usr/bin/false looks like this:

#! /bin/sh
#
#       @(#)false.sh 1.5 88/02/07 SMI; from UCB

exit 1

Hi.  I just installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on a Solaris 2.5 box.  Everything works
perfectly except for one maddening detail.  I can't figure out how to get
"ls" to display the correct time for anonymous users.  No matter what I
try, "ls" always displays file timestamps in GMT.

I have /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo set up under the ftp home directory just
like the man page says.  The really maddening thing is that the Solaris
ftpd works just fine, and wu-ftpd works except for anonymous logins.

I read the FAQ entry about timestamps in xferlog.  Those timestamps
are being set correctly.

Also, I can kludge my way around this problem by substituting "ls" with a
wrapper script that explicitly sets $TZ and then runs the "ls" binary
(which I renamed to ls.bin in addition to sticking a copy of /bin/sh into
~ftp/bin).

So it appears that wu-ftpd is not propogating the environment to the
spawned "ls" process.  Is there a way around this?  A patch perhaps?

Thanks, as always.

Copy /etc/default/init to the appropriate place in the chroot area.
It should contain a line "TZ=MYTIMEZONE" where MYTIMEZONE is your
timezone. The OS installation procedure probably did this for you.

Under SunOS 4.1.x you could also do
ln /ftpdir/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/FOOBAR \
   /ftpdir/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/localtime

Don't know if this works under Solaris.

Is there a generic SVR4 config template somewhere?  I have a rather
un-heard-of SVR4 for a 486 CPU running on a Multibus II platform (from
Intel).  It's plain generic SVR4, straight from AT&T sources.  I haven't
quite figured out the right set of Makefile and config settings to get it to
compile and work.  I have gotten it to compile, but attempts to do a
directory list while logged into it give an error message about invalid
socket options.  The ls binary is present, and so are the libs it depends
on.  I can chroot manually to the ftp root and run ls without a problem.  I
can run the included /usr/sbin/in.ftpd without a problem.

I can provide more details if needed.

D E T A I L S
==========

Many of our users using Netscape to connect to an FTP site and trying to
drill down into the /pub or any other directory structure on a BSDI 2.01
Unix platform running wu-ftpd wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-11](1) receive the
following messages "Netscape is unable to find the file or directory named
/pub/" and "Check the name and try again".

I used Microsoft Network Monitor and captured the trace shown below.  Of
significance is the fact that Netscape sends mozilla@ as the password
without a domain name and "550 /pub/ not a plain file".  If you sign on
using ftp://anonymous@ftp.oei.omron.com and type a valid rfc822 Email
address for a password things work fine.  If you are running Netscape 3.x
and check send my Email address as a password for anonymous logins, it also
works.  

Netscape has duplicated this bug with me on Saturday.  It does not occurs
for all users.  We have yet to pin down the exact cause, however; it seems
like it effects dial up users or users going through proxies as apposed to
users not firewalled that are directly connected.  This is a loose
observation at best.

We are able to connect to ftp.oei.omron.com using all browsers accept
Netscape.  Netscape fails for some folks but not all.  From Netscape tech
support they had no problems accessing the site.  The tech I spoke with had
two off site tests run with mixed results.  We have replicated this problem
on all supported MS Windows OS (Win 3.x, Win 95, Win NT WS and server)
platforms with a variety of Netscape browser versions.

I notice in frame 41 that the anonymous user id does not have a domain name
after it.  We are configured to warn users if they do not send a valid rfc
822 compliant Email address, however; I am not enforcing compliance at this
point.  Netscape needs to send a valid domain name to be compliant with
rfc822 Email naming conventions.

Next notice frame 58 it is complaining that the root is not even a plain
file.  We visually see the directory display for root when we connect.  When
we try to click on /pub you can see it complains again in frame 78.

=========
A C T I O N
=========

1) I have tried setting password checking from rfc822 and warn to none.
This still does not solve the problem.  I think that I am looking at a bug
in wu-ftp.  Can anyone confirm this or suggest a way to patch the source.
Has anyone else had a similar problem.

2) I feel that Netscape should send a valid domain name with their anonymous
ftp login.
We should have Internic create a dummy domain that users can use for this
purpose.
Something like nobody@nowhere.com or mozilla@junkmail.net.

Thanks.

Thanks for the advice,
The version of wu I got from wuarchive.wustd.edu doesn't have fbs files, though.
I modified the .gen files myself. (P.S. I had to do disable most of the include files in the config.[fbs] file as they weren't inside my include files [I checked with grep].)

I then tried compiling the thingie, and it seemed to do a fine job, except that it didn't find the config.h header file. 
Reminder: The .c files are inside the src directory, and the config.h file is inside its parent directory.
The config.fbs file is inside src/config/ and one of its settings calls for config.h to be at ../config.h
I presume, now, that this is relative to the config and not the src directory...

I took off before trying anymore, and I thought it would be a good idea to ask you guys..  Just in case anyone knows if what I'm doing is by the book, or if I should be doing what.

Most curious to get a confirmation that I should move the config.h file inside src directory, and then compile.

Next will be to run 'build INSTALL' if I am interpreting O'Reilly correctly.

I'd really appreciate any little word from somone who has wu running successfully on FreeBSD.

Thanks,

    Weirdest thing.  Running beta 11 on a Slackware Linux box.
 
    Incoming ftp works fine.  Out going ftp freezes the whole system on
files larger than about 3400 bytes.  Smaller than that they work.  Larger
than that it freezes right up permanently. 
 
    This happens whether or not one ftps from the Linux box to the outside
world sending the file out, or from the outside world in pulling the file
out. 
 
    Incoming files work fine either way.

Is there any way to get Netscape to give a legitimate e-mail address
instead of mozilla@?  We run a large anon-ftp site, and I would like
to reject the obviously bogus e-mail address (I've hacked beta11 to do
this including addresses like mozilla, www, and other common
DOS/Windows stuff).  I've hunted around in the various Netscape menus
and .ini files and haven't found any way to change this.

I just got wu-ftpd [2.4(2)] up and running with help from
nice people on this list (thanks).

My current problem is that clients can connect, transfer, do an ls,
but an ls -l or dir command always returns a null list.

Any insight into the problem will be appreciated.

thanks

Hi there,

is there a way to find out if wu-ftp BETA 11 is really using the ftpaccess file?

How can I find out in which path wu-ftp is looking for this file?

Thanks a lot

Martin

Hi there,

I have just installed wu-ftpd beta-11. The vitual hosts work fine, but =
there is still a problem!
All my ftp users are in the same group in the /etc/group file which =
looks like this:

ftpuser:*:700:john,harry,mike,sonja

I want only the rigth user to have acces to his virtual ftp-server, so =
that the virtual server for john is only accessable by john with johns =
password .=20
But if I log in the virtual server which belongs to john as user harry =
with harrys password I allso have access to johns virtual server.

Should I create a own group for each user?

Also I want to have some virtual ftp-servers, which allow anonymous ftp. =
How can I do this.

Sorry, for this stupid questions, but today is not MY day.

Thanks a lot=20

I want to thank the people who responded to my request for help and
summarize what I found.

1.  Solaris 2.5 needs many files in specific directories to handle the guest
    ftpd setup.  The Solaris man page for it's in.ftpd has a script for
    setting up the directories and files.

2.  After running that script you can still have the directories created
    with the wrong permissions (may take extraordinary stupidity to accopmplish)
    I found all directories (/pub,/etc,/usr,/usr/lib, /bin) needed 755 
    permissions.

3. in guest howto:  ftp://ftp.fni.com/pub/wu-ftpd/guest-howto is a command

   truss -f chroot ~ftp /bin/ls  (which produces lots of low level output)

or you can use
   
    chroot ~ftp /bin/ls  (which gives error messages)

    this was an invaluabale debugging tool,

thanks again
joe

Martin,

Use the -a and the -l options. They seem to work together. It should
be obvious that ftpaccess works with them both.

It probably isn't unless you use the -a flag to wu-ftpd, and even then my
install was ignoring certain parts (like logging inbound and outbound
transfers...)

Hi,

I have some curious (for me) problem with wu-ftpd. It was working
correctly, then suddenly (well, I did some testing of ftpshut before)
it began to answer:

500 delia FTP server shut down -- please try again later.

So the daemon is saying something. And these are the syslog lines:


Jul 29 19:50:38 delia syslog: getpeername (./ftpd): Invalid argument
Jul 29 19:50:38 delia syslog: getsockname (./ftpd): Invalid argument
Jul 29 19:50:38 delia ftpd[425]: setsockopt (SO_OOBINLINE): Invalid
argument
Jul 29 19:50:38 delia ftpd[425]: fcntl F_SETOWN: Invalid argument

(delia is the machine name)


I even reinstalled completelly the software with no success.

Could anybody help me, please ?
E-mail me directly to aduenas@irinfo.es.
Thank you in advance

Antonio

ReHi Troy,

the right address to get BETA-11 is:

http://nswt.tuwien.ac.at/htdocs/internet/unix/ftp/wu-ftpd.html

but if you like, you can download the compiled version from my ftp server.

See you

Martin

Hi Martin,

Thanks,

I have the wu-ftpd running on solaris 2.4 We can upload and download from
ftp clients using active mode but we cannot upload from clients running
passive mode (netscape and other web browsers). 

I have read the faq and chnaged the mode for ~ftp/dev/tcp but this did not
eliminate the problem. Has anyone else had this problem? and how did you fix it?

Thanks
Regina

By 'passive' mode to you mean anonymous ftp?  If so and you have
configured your fptaccess file to contain the following statement:

passwd-check rfc822 warn/deny

Then you will probably get a failure when you try to use netscape v1.x
and v2.x.  Version 3.0bx has an option to send the complete e-mail
address as an anonymous ftp login but the earlier varients seem to send
'mozilla@' instead.  Remove the passwd check and see what happens.

I did not have the  passwd-check line in my ftpaccess file so this is not
the problem. 

Thanks .

Hello,

I'm sure the answer to this has been posted before
so please bear with me.  I just finished installing
wu-ftp 2.4 on a solaris 2.4 system and noticed that
I get the following error message with the 'ls' command
was issued:

I copied the 'ls' command from /usr/bin into the ~ftp/bin directory.


Can anyone tell me what this error means?

One question about wuftpw:

is the command "quote site index" implemented ?
If yes, what must I do to use it?

Hi wu-ftp users,

first of all I'd like to thank everybody at this list for your help till yet.

Here's my next question.

Is there a way to have different ftp-access directories depending on the user and his password.

Thanks again

Martin

Sounds like the 'ole ~ftp/dev/* stuff is missing.  We have tcp,
ticotsord, udp and zero setup in our ftp area.  'man mknod' to find
out how to make the devices.

Hi all:

       I'm running wu-ftpd 2.4 in a FreeBSD 2.1R box. One curious thing is
happening:
the downloads are at very good speed. But I set up I directory for
uploading, and the
uploads, are, most of the time, very slow and sometimes interrupted in the
middle.
Is there any possible configuration problem to cause this ? Any clue where
to look at ?

Thanks a lot!
Helio.

Hi:

I'm a little sheepish to ask, but.....

I can't successfully compile WU-ftp on an AIX 4.1 os.  I was given copies 
of the binaries
for the ftpd, but not the utilities such as ftpswho, ftpshut, ftpcount, 
and xferstat.

Could anyone either tell me where I can find those binaries, or 
experience with compiling for AIX ?

Thanks in advance,

I have an HP running HP/UX 9.04 and I've compiled and setup
wu-ftpd2.4 without too many problems but it seems that syslog does
not log any ftp information no matter how I setup the syslog.conf
file. I looked in the src/config.h file and see that FACILITY
LOG_LOCAL5 is defined. Do I need to include FACILITY LOG_DAEMON in 
this  file and re-compile? Where can I get info on these LOG_LOCAL* 
facilities?

					Thank you,

I am using wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-10] and I am seeing this behavior. In 
chroot'd environments like ANONYMOUS logon and GUEST logons, the message
from the "shutmsg" file appears not to be issued till after the filesystem 
has been chroot'd. Is this designed behavior? If so, it will mean that I will 
have to synchronize multiple "shutmsg" files in each chroot'd filesystem.

I am in the process of getting BETA-11. So pardon my noise, if I hit
a known problem.

If this is the case, you could add the line

local5.debug		/whatever/log/file/you/like

to your /etc/syslog.conf file.  This should work.

I have a bsd server running ver 2.4.

I am having problems with commands when users log in.
The ftpaccess file is the minimum that comes with the 
source, except for a guestgroup addition.
After setting up users, groups, homes and passwd file, 
when logging in, the chroot is done correctly.

Once logged in, the ls command does not display the 
directory listing. But you can navigate down the tree and 
back again if you know the subdirectories.

Downloading files is also okay, but uploading causes an 
error message : Unable to determine cwdir : Permission 
denied.

If using a windows ftp client, an error 'Undecipherable' 
is displayed where the pathname should be.

If there is no ftpaccess file, but the -a switch is used, 
i get the same problem. The only way i can get any normal 
ftp service is to not use the -a switch. catch 22. 

Regards, Craig Stratton.

Thank you ALL for you suggestions. Substituting local5.debug for
daemon.debug in the syslog.conf did the trick. Again, I would
like to thank all for your help.

Please scuseme for this "repost". I hope that some1 will be able to

Hello ftpadmin fellows :)

Here is my little big nightmare.

I run wu-2.4.2 academ BETA 11 on a P-100 with 48 Megs and 20 Gigs of HDD
and a 3COM 3C509B (tested with 3C590 too).
The O/S is Linux 1.2.13 and it seems to be really OK.

Now the problem.

With EVERY O/S version > than the 1.2.13 (till 2.010!) i get every random 
times (10 is an average) a weird death from the server which stops
misteriously to send packets when it reaches the 49152nd byte.

Ethernal glory to whom will try to help me with this stuff. :)

                                Ftpadmin of ftp.flashnet.it

P.S. Don't suggest me to change OS! :))
