Bob is right, although more complex configuration are certainly available,
the following lines added to the /etc/syslog.conf file suffice to log
all 'info' messages (ie, connections & timeouts)

	#
	# 07/03/95  Miquel E Cabanas
	# after Sun Managers FAQ - enable syslogd for ftpd
	#
	daemon.info	/var/adm/syslog

for instance, this are several entries written by my ftp server
	>
	>Jan 17 18:31:06 ###### ftpd[1630]: FTPD: connection from ***.***.** at \
	>	Fri Jan 17 18:31:06 1997
	>Jan 17 18:36:27 ###### ftpd[1630]: FTPD: User ftp timed out after 300 seconds \

	>	Fri Jan 17 20:10:49 1997
	>

Other related entries are 'daemon.notice' to logs to /var/adm/messages by default,
and 'daemon.err' that sends messages to the operator.

Hello, 
 
I am configuring wu-ftp v2.4 for the first time, on a DecUnix 3.2a system, and 
I am setting up guest user access.   
 
One thing doesn't work like I expected.  I thought guest users, like anonymous 
users, would require a local bin and etc directory because of the chroot() 
environment.  But I seem to be able to connect fine without those, and the 
user can do an ls for example (although not an "ls -l").  Everything else 
appears to be working properly. 
 
Is this the way it should work? 
 
Thank you, 
Elaine Lolos

I've been using previous version of wu-ftpd without a hitch on a SunOS
4.1.3 machine.  Unfortunately, this machine recently took a turn for the
worse, and as a result we re-installed /upgraded the OS to Solaris 2.5.1.

I successfully compiled the latest version of wu-ftpd (beta12).  I've
double checked the line in my inetd.conf and all the flags seem to be in
place.  I've run ckconfig and it returns with no errors.  And with all
this, wu-ftpd still does not recognize any of the settings in my ftpaccess
file.

At this point, I'm primarily concerned that only anonymous users have
access to the server and have delete access.  When I try to login as a
valid user I get the following from the server:

530 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Login failed.

I've also double checked my config.h to make sure that it says the
ANON_ONLY is disabled (#undef ANON_ONLY).


Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!  Thanks in advance!
Ken

Yes.  This can be done, but you will have to complete the setup for
anonymous FTP for each web area.  That is, each client's web page area
will require the /bin, /etc, and /dev directories with the setup files
as described in the manual pages for anonymous FTP.

This being done, you set the home directory for the user to be the
actual location of their FTP area.  For example, if your client's files
are located at /usr/local/httpdocs/client1, then the home directory for
that user would be: '/usr/local/httpdocs/client1/./'.  The extra stuff
at the end of that path causes WU-FTP to chroot() to the path on the left
side of that marker, and the chdir() to the path on the right, in this
case null, or '/'.

I also am having the same problem. I tried to do a link from their

Let me know if you come up with something

Indeed.  Beta 12 seemed to cure the hanging ftpds for anonymous
processes.  However I still get an occasinal user hung ftpd,
typically in a LIST or STOR state.

Typically the connection is broken due to network difficulties
between 'here' and 'there'.

BSDI 2.0 soon to be 2.1.

Of course, /etc/passwd was just an example. It could be any other file,
and not only on the ftp area, but in the whole filesystem where the ftp
is located, because the "evil user" could have done a hard link on the
file instead of a symlink on the directory:

ftpd            evil user
----            ---------
                mkdir foo1
                mkdir foo2

And this time it's the real /etc/passwd the one to get compromised.
As I told on my last email, I just can think of a couple of useless
examples, but there is a legion of "evil users" out there in the
internet who will be very happy with their new toy :-)

I don't quite agree. If the program is well designed and written, and
the system is well configured, why should there be a vulnerability?

My opinion is that security must be a first order concern in any system.
The worst "loss of functionality" happens when someone decides to remove
every single file in your disks just because you had forgot to fix "that
stupid security hole". I have seen that a couple of times, believe it or
not. And anyway, in this specific case, trying to write the code in a
more secure way does not cause any side problem (at least in the user, I
am not considering the headaches in the programmer). I mean, you can
still make your subdirectories, can't you?
Regards.

shouldn't it be:

or at least use the MANEXT...

Hello,
I have installed wu-ftd 2.4 on an Alpha Station 600 - Digital Unix 3.2C,
following the installation instructions.
I wanted to install an anonymous ftp, and I faced 2 problems in using the
command "ls" :
The first one is, if the home directory of ftp is not owned by the user ftp,
"ls" returns nothing. I can change directory to "/pub" and there the "ls"
works again but not on "~ftp".
The second one is that "ls" doesn't understand the usual options like "ls -l".
Configuration :
I created a user ftp in a group guest, and I have used the heavy version of
the ftpaccess file given in example. 
The xferlog works for outside connexions.
I have copy the "/etc/sia" subdirectory in "~ftp/etc", which is required for
Digital Unix.

Thank you for the help.

I am running wu-ftp Version wu-2.4(5) and noticed that we are 
reaching the maximium number of users because some ftp sessions are 
no closing after the user disconnects.  Is this a known problem in 
this version of wu-ftp?  Is there a workaround or fix?  Thanks.

I'm setting up a FTP server for our system, and would like users to be able
to upload files.  We're not providing any anonymous access to our system,
and have a custom authentication routine, which I have patched into the
beta-12 code.

What I want to do is restrict every user's access to their public_html
directory.  Basically, they can upload and maintain files into that
directory, and can't even create directories.

If anyone has hacks or configurations that will do this, I'd gladly welcome
them

Thanks to all who responded. Everyone contributed a piece it turns out.

 Yes on my Solaris 2.5.1 /etc/inetd.conf file only 4 arguments were being
recognized to wuftpd, the 5th one, -L, in my case was being ignored.

 Yes all daemon.* entries were missing from /etc/syslog.conf on Solaris 
2.5.1. Turns out by adding daemon.info and daemon.notice this just 
resulted in three messages instead of one of types like:
 ACCESS DENIED, FTP LOGIN REFUSED.
But took look at IRIX 6.2 syslog.conf file which had *.debug set. Once set
daemon.debug then I got what I was looking for, what I had been getting
on SGI right along, a full detailed description of entire ftp session.

 Thanx again,
	Roger Hanke

Bob is right, although more complex configuration are certainly available,
the following lines added to the /etc/syslog.conf file suffice to log
all 'info' messages (ie, connections & timeouts)

	#
	# 07/03/95  Miquel E Cabanas
	# after Sun Managers FAQ - enable syslogd for ftpd
	#
	daemon.info	/var/adm/syslog

for instance, this are several entries written by my ftp server
	>
	>Jan 17 18:31:06 ###### ftpd[1630]: FTPD: connection from ***.***.** at \
	>	Fri Jan 17 18:31:06 1997
	>Jan 17 18:36:27 ###### ftpd[1630]: FTPD: User ftp timed out after 300 seconds \
	>	at Fri Jan 17 18:36:27 1997
	>Jan 17 20:10:49 ###### ftpd[1788]: FTPD: connection from ***.***.** at \
	>	Fri Jan 17 20:10:49 1997
	>

Other related entries are 'daemon.notice' to logs to /var/adm/messages by default,
and 'daemon.err' that sends messages to the operator.

Hello, again,

(Yes, I've got dynamic ls working on Solaris, I will update everyone as
soon as I have everything I need working :-)

I would like to set up a directory tree (ie, /home/top) so that several
users (user1, user2, user3, etc) have guest access to it (they're all
chrooted to /home/top), are chdir'ed to the next level (ie, junk1, junk2,
junk3, etc) and then use ftpaccess in conjunction with Unix file/directory
permissions to restrict upload access where user1 is a member of group1,
user2 in group2 and user3 in group3.

The upload part of my ftpaccess file looks like:

upload	/home     *      no
upload  /home/top /junk1 yes     guest     group1  0775 dirs 
upload  /home/top /junk2 yes     guest     group2  0775 dirs 
upload  /home/top /junk3 yes     guest     group3  0775 dirs 

Yes, I want all files owned by yet another user that is not the original
user who uploaded the file, don't ask :-) I also want files/directories
group writable.

I have just applied Alvaro's patch to beta 11 and now have the following
behaviour:

Regardless of which user I am (user1, user2, or user3), directories
created are owned by guest/group3. The owner is correct, but the group is 
always group3. If I move the "junk1/group1" upload line to the last line of 
upload section, then all directories created are then owned by guest/group1.

Files uploaded however, show the expected behaviour, owned by guest and
the group as specified by the upload line...

Help? Should I be using beta-12 instead? :-)

Cheers,
Darci Chapman (minerva@teleport.com)

Hello,

I just discovered I've made a wrong assumption (not unusual :-).

For things like the "rm" and "del" commands, wu-ftp is NOT adhering to
the Unix file permissions. For example, even when I exlicitly set files
and directories to be not group writable and not owned by that guestgroup
user, under wu-ftpd that guestgroup user can delete these files and
directories because they have explicit upload permissions from the ftpaccess 
file.

Is this observation correct? Is this desirable?

Cheers,
Darci Chapman (minerva@teleport.com)

Hi all,

I use wu_ftpd 2.4 on my linux 2.0 machine.
When I conncect the server, ls -l shows a different file update time (6 hours advance).
For example, if the update time is Feb 3 14:00, ls -l from the ftp client shows Feb 3 20:00.
Does anybody know why and how to fix this???

Thank you in advance.

Shu Shimizu

Check the FAQ... I just went through this exercise this weekend.  It
is most likely that ftp doesn't know what time zone it is in.  You
need to make sure that when ftp connects, it can figure out the
appropriate time zone from the files relative to ~ftp.

I don't think so, given a lot of the things it does while in passive
mode.

Well, this is weird. I am using a very similar configuration in the server
I had to make the patch for. These are a few lines (I have a lot of upload
rules):

upload  /home/company  *             no
upload  /home/company  /main         yes     company   admin   0664   nodir=
s
upload  /home/company  /sport        no                               nodir=
s
upload  /home/company  /sport/ftp    yes     company   sport   0664   dirs
upload  /home/company  /sport/web    yes     company   sport   0664   dirs
upload  /home/company  /economy      no                               nodir=

That sounds terrible. I've been working with that configuration for
a lot of time with no problems at all (but the version of wu-ftpd I've
been using is rather old). I don't know, maybe the patch doesn't work
properly with a so newer version. I'll take a look at the sources to see
if I can find anything.

I modified my wu-ftpd to allow 2 new tags, :user: and :group: to be used 
in the place of the user and group name on an upload line.  These tags 
let you set the user and/or group for uploaded files to be the same as 
the directory they're being uploaded to.

That means 1 rule takes care of my entire ftp tree with a thousand or so 
incoming directories.  I force the upload permissions to 0600 for 
security reasons; that way no one can download files once uploaded, so it 
keeps the pirates away.

I sent in these patches around 2.4.2beta9 but they must have been lost in 
the shuffle.  If they are of general use I'll prepare diffs and send them 
in again.  The changes are really quite trivial.

Here's the scoop:
	linux 2.0.28
	libc-5.3.12
	wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-11 -or-
	wu-ftpd-2.4(1)

When using wu.ftpd-2.4(1) my guest accounts chroot() to the right place 
and things are pretty good, working as expected.

No other changes, just doing a 'build lnx' after applied dirent fix and 
then install. ftp into account, cd / and now I have access to the full 
server directory structure.

Now, my question: Why does the old ftpd work and the new ftpd doesn't?

Any clues?

Thanks
Greg

Actually, you are using an old beta. The latest beta is 12. Beta 11 does
not work on linux 2.X kernels. Beta-12 does.

Probably, but not without some change to the src code.
Non-anonymous will not work, the server would not be able to
reset is uid.
So for anonymous without UPLOADING, PASV on ports > 1024
get rid of all the setuid(0), ... it should work ;-)

In brief, get rid of all the fun part and it should be fine ;-)

I don't believe that I have seen this one before, and I'm not sure that
it's easily possible.
Does anyone know of a way to refuse anonymous access directed to a
particular virtual server while leaving anonymous access open to other
servers?
Thanks.

I'd be interested in seeing the patch.  I'm still using 2.4, but would
be interested in the behavior you've created.

Hi!

I've made a patch (check the attachment) for Beta12 that some of you might
find interesting. So far it is working ok.

When the client ask for PASV, the server must bind to a port and wait the
connection from the client. With the original code, the port would randomly
selected. This patch makes the ftpd bind to a port in a certain range
(defined at compile time for now).

What's the benefit? Basically I only have to open a certain range of ports
in my firewall to allow PASV mode to work.

If you find anything wrong with this patch, please let me know.

Thanks!

Melo

PS: the patch is to the file src/ftpd.c in beta12.
PS2: to change the range of port numbers you want, change PASSIVE_BASE 
     (base port) and PASSIVE_SPAN (number of ports to open). In my patch, I

     open 500 ports from 3000 to 3499

Hi,

I just set up wu-ftpd and after playing around with some access
restrictions I got it to accept/reject users as I want it to, but now I get
following error when submitting commands like "ls" or "get xy", with xy
being an existing file:

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

What does that mean?
It must have to do with the access restrictions, since it only happens to
guest-users. To debug it a little bit further, I took a real (none-root)
user and it worked. Then I gave him the chroot-home dir (/home/./bg) and it
worked, too. Finally, I put him into a guest group, which caused the error
to occur.

At first glance, sounds like a good idea.  But I'm unclear what the point
is.  If you only open 500 ports instead of 65536 (or whatever), then only
500 hackers can break into/out of your site at one time?

I'm runnig wu-ftpd-beta-11 with one virtual server.  I'm having 
two problems.
1. When somebody logs guestuser into my virtual server or my 
real server with ws_ftp the directory doesn't show-up.
2.  When somebody connects to my virtual server the operations 
take forever to execute.

Also, Is there a way to make ls respond to dir.  When I type 
dir I don't get any files listed, but when I ype ls it shows 
everything.

Help,
Thanks,
Alan

Funny you should mention this as I just went through this little goody
earlier this week.  The permissions of ~ftp/dev were wrong so that the
chroot'ed program couldn't open /dev/socksys (on an SCO system).

I wrote earlier about a problem with ws_ftp access to my wu-ftpd servers.
On my console I get the message:
ls: cannot find file /usr/lib/ld.so.1
However, I have ld.so.1 located in:
/usr/lib/
~ftp/usr/lib

What's wrong... Also, just again - Why does my virtual server run so slow?

:)

My ideia is that I have some ports above 1024 open (solaris stuff) that I
dont want to make available. And I also want to make PASV ftp work. So, I
choose a range of ports that are not being used by any service and open
those in the firewall.

The range of ports you open should be unused.

:-)
I think Karl, that the advantage is when you have a firewall.
So you can open a specific range of ports in your firewall
for FTP.

The problem that I can think of is; if the range is too small
the ports may be easily guessable. So an attacker can steal
the port before the legitimate client, since there is no
authentication for the PASV nor the PORT command.

Hello,

I'm having problems with implementing s/key with version wu-ftpd-2.4 running 
solaris 2.5.1 . I was able to compile just fine with no errors.

The problem is I'm unable to do any put's logging in as anonymous or as another 
user. Get's appear to work OK. I used the ftpd.c file along with libskey.a from 
bellcore.com that I used successfully with the previus version wu-ftpd-2.1c. Any 
help would be appreciated, I will summarize.

thanks and regards,

In the ftpaccess file, there are permission attributes such as DELETE,
CHMOD,  RENAME.  

Is there a hack to allow me to apply these to various groups rather than
the three types (REAL, GUEST, ANONYMOUS).  We have a downlaod area that is
managed as a guest area.  On the same server we have an upload area for
our web developers. Both are chrooted, guest-type areas.  We don't want
the download area folks to be able to do anything but downlaod. But the
web developers may need to be able to rename or delete. (Note that they
aren't uploading directly to our site, but rather to a "holding area")

The docs say that the permission attributes such as DELETE etc can be
applied to "types".  Is there a way to apply them to groups?

Could somebody please give me clear step-by-step instruction on how to 
get static link libraries for Solaris wu-ftpd?  I'm waded through the 
FAQ, but at no avail.

Not quite. If you use PARANOID, it already deals with that. He only allows
connections from the same IP address as the control sockect.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


I got "dir" working with a dynamic version of "ls" late last week. I had
two problems:

I'm guessing that the symbolic link for ~ftp/usr/lib->~ftp/lib was
a no-no and then when I started from scratch at one point :-), I missed
libmp.so

Here's what works for me:

./                 libdl.so.1*        libsocket.so*      nss_nis.so.1* 
../                libintl.so*        libsocket.so.1*    nss_nisplus.so.1* 
ld.so*             libintl.so.1*      libw.so*           straddr.so* 
ld.so.1*           libmp.so*          libw.so.1*         straddr.so.2* 
libc.so*           libmp.so.1*        locale/ 
libc.so.1*         libnsl.so*         nss_dns.so.1* 
libdl.so*          libnsl.so.1*       nss_files.so.1* 

I haven't found the need for "zoneinfo" - the correct files in "locale"
seem to cover the date/time stamp issues.

I'm in the middle of documenting this and other Solaris tidbits for both
my client and for the wu-ftpd users at large; keep an eye out on the list
for an announcement :-)

I want to thank everyone who helped me with this problem! There are some
very helpful people on this list!

I'm still interested in being able to compile a static version of "ls"
for Solaris (so that I can document it) and a working patch for mkdir,
so please, keep me posted either directly or through the mailing list.

All of this is for beta 11; I'll be testing beta 12 soon (sigh :-)

Cheers,

They work with the logdaemon-4.9 version of S/Key.

Hello:
------

Excuse me if my question is inappropiate here, but I read the faq and 
I did not found an answer.

I am trying to compile wu-ftpd-2.4 in a SUN Sparcstation 4 under Solaris 2.5,
using gcc 2.7.2. I followed the instruccion in the README file but I 
got the following warnings.

My questions is How severe this warning are? Can I ignore them or there is
a way to solve them.

To quote you .. "not quite"
1-
  PARANOID doesn't deal with IP checking
  it disallows some questionnable practice of wu-ftpd (rename, 
  site exec, overwrite etc...). Check the source code again
2-
  the new betas-xx(since *Hobbit* fixes) restrict the PORT
  command to port > 1024 and #IP to be the same as the client.
  Althought this violates the spirit of rfc959 and a some
  ftp clients. Nothing to do with PARANOID
3-
  There is no restriction on the PASV directive.
  except from your patch.

Althought checking PORT seems to stop ftp bounce attacks
It doesn't do anything about stealing ports. There is
an IETF-draft on the work about the client and the server
exchanging cookies for authentication.

What is to document?

This info is in the solaris man page for ftpd...(man ftpd)

    ~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*

     cp /usr/lib/ld.so /usr/lib/ld.so.1 ${ftphome}/usr/lib

     for lib in libc libdl libintl libw libnsl libsocket \
        nss_nis nss_nisplus nss_dns nss_files
     do
        cp /usr/lib/${lib}.so.1 ${ftphome}/usr/lib
        rm -f ${ftphome}/usr/lib/${lib}.so
        ln -s ./${lib}.so.1 ${ftphome}/usr/lib/${lib}.so
     done
     cp /usr/lib/straddr.so.2 ${ftphome}/usr/lib
     rm -f ${ftphome}/usr/lib/straddr.so

     ln -s ./straddr.so.2 ${ftphome}/usr/lib/straddr.so

I hope that helps,

The list above did not work for me. Go figure. The list I posted did.
That and the fact that other people have reported the same problem
that I did even after following the instructions on the man page.
Specifically, I needed a copy of libmp.so before the user/group names
would show up correctly. I'm also gathering up other Solaris 2.5.x related 
into (ie, the recent discussion regarding the needed /etc/syslog.conf
entries to get logging fully enabled).

right, but if you had looked at the script that i posted (that is also 
in the man page) you would have noticed the ln -s of the .so files to 
the .1 files....that is the key part to making it work...

oh...now i learned something...;)

great! i'm sure that it would provide a valuable resource, except, you 
should just submit that info to the FAQ page owner so that people do not 
have to go around to yet another different place looking for the 
information that should just belong in the faq...

thanks!

That's what the man page says.  However, I could not get mine
to work unless I added libmp.so* which was not in the map page.

One difference I can see, is that I'm running Solaris 2.4.  Another
might be that for the FTP area, I'm using the 'ls' command supplied with
Solaris.  I don't use the GNU version in ~ftp/bin.  Could those account
for the fact that my ~ftp/bin/ls shows user/group names, and your's
doesn't without libmp.so?

If you run Linux, get the wu-ftpd with pam patches available at
ftp://ftp.redhat.com and, and the pam stuff from there, and use the
secureId pam support.

I'm using the dynamically linked "ls" that comes with Solaris 2.5.1 so
I think something must have changed between 2.4 and 2.5 :-)

I have not been able to successfully compile a static version of the GNU
ls on Solaris (with or without Emil's static-ls patch; I emailed him
copies of both outputs from my patch and compile/link attempts.)

There's something strange going on here.  Yanni's (Sun's) list works fine for
me; I don't need libmp.so to get the names displayed.  But Darci also said
she found she didn't need the zoneinfo stuff to get the times to display
correctly for anonymous users, whereas I do...

Darci, when you put the documentation together (which I'm sure will be
much appreciated by future Solaris users), can you mention that different
peoples' mileage seems to vary ?

Darci,
 To be completely honest, I never even tried combining options.
I had copied from some examples that had the options listed out
separately. Since I had never gone in the code to see what kind of
parsing was supported I had always played it safe. So my command 
line is now -a -u007 -d -l -L and that is what I meant by 5 command line
args.

 Now having got that out of my system. Was concerned that noone else
on the list even mentioned this. This would sure seem like a good 
alternative to wrapping wuftpd just to get more args in. So tested it
out by combining the args on both Solaris and IRIX and walla, got all
5 args on command line now using -adlLu007. So you were not
imagining ;-)
	Thanx,
	Roger

Roger,

Thanks for posting this to the list; I needed it :-) If you have a moment,
could you elaborate on the follwoing:

>  Yes on my Solaris 2.5.1 /etc/inetd.conf file only 4 arguments were being
> recognized to wuftpd, the 5th one, -L, in my case was being ignored.

I haven't experienced this particular "feature" :-) I once had:

wuftp  stream tcp      nowait  root    /usr/sbin/ftpd  ftpd -laiou113

and that seemed to work. I've since turned off the umask option, so maybe
I imagined it?

Just curious. Thanks!

Hi,

I am looking for a tool which can tell me how far through
a transfer a given process is.

ftpwho can tell me the pid of current processes, but not much more.

(Is that because it was not built with SETPROCTITLE - I see from
 the man page that it's not much use without. I can't remember
 how it was built actually. Would it give me the info I want
 if it _was_ built in this way?

Are there any other suitable tools for this purpose?

p.s. I am running the latest "pre-beta" version.

Thanks,
Mike.Ellwood

Humm... forgive me jumping in here, but I wonder if these different problems 
may be specific to a processor type and/or patch level of the given systems.

I.E.. Yanni might have some combination of SUN jumbo patches that
Darci does not completely have, or some other odd mixture.

Or some extra portions of the kernel/system are excersised by different
combinations of hardware?

Ha HA!!.. I remember this.  Somehow some old code has crept into the 
rpc.inetd daemon.   This was a problem on older AIX systems.   Seems
like SUN hasn't fixed this either, or somehow some old code is back.

The inetd daemon itself was not parsing code the config file properly, 
and was NOT passing ALL arguments specified in the file to the started 
process.

Seems to me that I recall discussions on this on some other discussion
group long ago.  Funny how things keep coming back around.

Nope...I have a straight copy of b12.

Strange thing on my end is that now I can't get logging to work at all 
but ls, dir, all works fine after I added the libma.so. I'm trying to 
use the -ladvL method of command line options with inetd.conf since sun 
has that limitation and my syslog.conf file is configured correctly.

:-)
I think you have it backward.
Wu-ftpd is a server not a client, I'm teasing ya :)

I believe what you looking for is a client that will connect
to a specific ftpd server(wu-ftpd or else) and retrieve file as
needed on the basis of size and timestamp.

If you don't need anything fancy nor big a combination of
at|cron and ncftp is enough.

But for the big duties, there is a perl script call ... 'mirror'
that can do it for you. I think the latest version is
mirror-2.8.tar.gz. I'm too lazy to dig up for the URL
but a search with your favorite engine should be enough

I had been thinking about this, too.  My system, which works with the
standard libraries as recommended in Sun's man page, is as follows :-

% uname -sipmrv
SunOS 5.5 Generic sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-5

% showrev -p
No patches are installed


But I also wondered if we might be using different versions of ls, so I
checked - and I just discovered that the ls I have installed under
~ftp/bin was copied from /usr/ucb/ls, and not from /bin/ls as I had
previously thought.  showrev -c and ldd show the library information
for this version as :-
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
while for the version under /bin/ls they show :-
        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

So I'm betting that this could be the difference.  Perhaps Darci could try
using putting this version of ls in ~ftp/bin and see if the extra library
is still required...

It'd be good to get this mystery solved at last !

Cheers, Bob

*paf*. Yep, you're right... I though that PASV had the same checks that
PORT has... hmms.. Not that it would be difficult to had, though :).
If I ask for PASV, then only I should be allowed to bind to that port
anyway... Right?

hmms.. Yes, it breaks the spirit of the rfc but it should not break any
clients because they receive the port they should bind and wait there for
the ftpd to connect to them.

Yes, but if we restrict the IP of the client to the same one used on the
command sockect, does that break anything? I think not (although I should
check the RFC again... Weekend reading) and it would be a nice (although
not perfect) tool to prevent port stealing.

That would be a more eficient solution, but still open to sniffing.. But I
starting to go off topic... :)

In short and to summarize: The advantage of this patch is to restrict the
ports ued in PASV by the server to a more limited range, therefore making
it easier on the firewalls at the server site. This could make it easier to
do port stealing kind of attacks. This problem is only solved by a
modification on the protocol and therefore not a valid solution rigth now
(without breaking a lot of things). A patch to make ftpd only accept a PASV
connection if they come from the same IP address as the control sockect
could help minimize the risk. I'm not sure if that breaks anything in the
protocol spec, but I'll check this weekend.

Looking up group entries (for instance) goes through the name service
switch, so that involves /usr/lib/nss_*.so.1.  If you do an ldd on, say,
/usr/lib/nss_files.so.1 on a 2.5.1 system, you'll see it has a dependency
on /usr/lib/libmp.so.1.  On a 2.5 system however, /usr/lib/nss_files.so.1
doesn't have that dependency. 

Evidently when that change was introduced in 2.5.1, no one at Sun thought
to update the ftpd man page to reflect that new dependency.

Ehm.. I was using beta 11 with Linux 2.0.0 through 2.0.28 before beta 12
came out. Maybe you mean some specific functionality?
Apart from this, I'm using the same stuff as Gregory and beta 12 (and 11)
works fine for me (but I don't use guestgroups so I can't comment on that

Having suggested the difference in behaviour might be caused by my use of
/usr/ucb/ls instead of /bin/ls, I had then tested both and found no
difference (in terms of evaluating the names), so I had gone back
to being puzzled.  This explanation clears up the mystery - thanks...

This should mean that libmp.so.1 is required only for 2.5.1 or later
(just summarising for Darci's documentation  :-)  ).

Cheers, Bob

Unless I'm missing something, ftpd.c calls <prot.h> which  calls
<acl.h> which is is <sys/acl.h>
instead.  Change in your /usr/include in reflect this change.

Of course, I could be totally wrong.  This is compiling beta 12 with
the ./build dec build as opposed to ./build osf build.  Why was that
change made, btw?

beta 11 and beta 12 worked fine for me as well. However the guestgroup 
portion of it has problems. The problems are NOT there with 2.4(1). In 
fact, if I install the 2.4.2-academ-beta12(1) binaries and do not change 
any config files then the guestgroup/chroot breaks, but ftp itself works.

Anyone have any advice?

Greetings,
	I've compiled wu-ftpd-2.4 under Solaris 2.4, and run it
in inetd.conf with no arguments.
When an anonymous user logs in and gives an incorrect password,
all ftp sessions lock up and the following error messages are displayed 
in /var/adm/messages:

Feb  3 15:36:15 <host> ftpd[15352]: sleeping: fcntl lock of pid file failed: 
Resource temporarily unavailable
Feb  3 15:36:15 <host> ftpd[15331]: sleeping: fcntl lock of pid file failed: 
Resource temporarily unavailable
Feb  3 15:36:16 <host> ftpd[15352]: sleeping: fcntl lock of pid file failed: 
Resource temporarily unavailable
 
Has anyone seen this before, and/or know what's going on?
It leaves behind several ftp processes that I have to manually kill
to stop the error messages.

"On the Flight Compression" occurs when you order tickets on certain
carriers who use special "dynamic compression payload adjusters" that
slowly squish packets into tiny little balls during long international
hops. By compressing the passeng.. uh, packets, greater throughput is
obtained on the long haul internation routes. Some carriers claim they
can fit twice as many packets into the same space!

Perhaps RFC 1149 is relevant here too.

As regards the "on the fly" compression that the original poster was wondering 
about, did it work for "real" users and not for anonymous ones, or did it just 
not work at all?  If the former then I would suspect that something that the 
utilities depend on is missing from the chroot()ed tree.  If the latter then 
perhaps the daemon's PATH might be relevant.

It would also be useful to know what kind of system is being used, as there 
may be some particular quirk which someone on the list might know about.

In any case, if there's some way to trace the daemon's execution as it fails 
to do the compression, then that might give some useful hints as to the 
problem.

In a shoe what un-related theme - I'm running on Solaris 2.5 and 2.5.1
with wuftp2.4 and there are times that syslog just stops logging.  I'm
not sure if it is getting over-run from my ftp stuff, or if there are
bugs in syslogd.  

Anyone else see this behavior where syslog just simply stops logging?
For me, a simple stop and re-start fixes the problem, but no
indication as to why it stopped.

About the questions below, the compression is not working at all. I am
working with Solaris 2.4 on a Spark 1000 server. About PATH, gzip, compress
and tar are in the same directory ( ~ftp/usr/bin, linked to /bin) as ls,
wich is working fine. I am not sure about how starting the transfer with
compression. Would it be transfering, for exemple, TEST file as TEST.Z?

That's an odd setup -- 'daemon.debug' will also log stuff at higher
priorities, so /usr/adm/syslogs/daemon.debug will get all the stuff also
in /usr/adm/syslogs/daemon.info, for instance.

Install patch 103783-02, if you haven't already. 

A generally helpful thing to try with syslog problems is to kill the
running syslogd, then start it again with the -d flag:  if you run

# /usr/sbin/syslogd -d

then it will print out a verbose account of what it thinks it's doing.

You can also try 

	# logger -p daemon.info "Testing" 

And see if anything appears in /usr/adm/syslog/daemon.info.  Might
help determine if it is syslog or ftpd that is wacky...

I have this *really* strange problem using WU-FTPD 2.4.2-beta-12 when I try
to transfer files.

I can transfer files as root both ways no problem.

However, when I use normal (real) user, whenever I transfer a file, FTP
says that the file was transferred successfully, but upon inspection, the
source file was truncated, and the target file was never created.

Any ideas?

Matt

Having problems with anonymous ftp with wu-2.4-academ(2) on Solaris 2.5.1
(uname follows): 
SunOS ftp.apk.net 5.5.1 Generic_103640-04 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-1

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

I read the wu-ftpd FAQ regarding this, and it specified that the reason for
it dropping core when I do a 'chroot ~ftp /bin/ls' was /etc/group was
missing.  The files passwd, group, netconfig and nsswitch.conf are in /etc
directory of ~ftp (albeit minimal).  Solaris faq said wu-ftpd requires
ticlts in the /dev directory and libmp.so.1, both are there.  I tried going
back to the Sun native in.ftpd... still doesn't work.

Any suggestions, before I just redo my root partition?  I was working
originally and suddenly I'm getting the current error message.

Error messages in /var/log say:

I am new to wu-ftpd and have what is probably
a rather simple question.

I have just built, installed, and (partly) configured wu-ftpd-2.4
under Solaris 2.5.  The machine on which it is running is our
virtual web server, and my intention is to have customers be
able to modify their own pages strictly by ftp, i.e., this
machine will have only ftp access.

How can I prevent users from changing out of their home
directory tree?

Thanks much,

Dunno if this will correct it... try setting the executeable flag on em.
Also check in the real /dev/ directory for the proper major and minor 
numbers (can't hurt)

I've got a rather lengthy (and undocumented...) set of patches to the Academ
Consulting wu-ftpd 2.4-beta 11 that implements what I call "realms" so that
I don't have to duplicate the guest/anonymous file structure everywhere. 
The patches basically allow me to "give away" access to a designated real
user to a "fake" FTP account.  The home directory cannot be changed out of,
nor can any operations be performed that will access files outside of the
user's realm.  The user can perform the normal set of file system
operations, as if the realm was a chrooted directory.

I had thought about letting this code out, but with all of the security
implications surrounding it, I decided to let someone else come up with
a better system.  I'm not really keen on seeing my name in email messages as
the originator of another glaring security hole in wu-ftpd.  The work is

Hi all,

I'm new to this list and I have a couple of simple questions.  I have a sun
system running solaris 2.5.1.  I want to set up secure ftp users, like
anonymous, but able to use their own login id.  After researching, I found
that the ftpd that comes with solaris just doesn't have the capabilities I
want and that wu-ftp seems to be the way to go.

I downloaded wu-ftpd-2.4 from wuarchive.wustl.edu, but I was wondering if
there is a newer version.  I was also wondering if there are any known bugs
or problems I should be looking out for.  I searched thru the CERN archives
and only found 1 vulnerability for this version, are there any other
idiosyncracies I should know about? :-)

Thanks

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the
directory contents, but get the file anyway.  It's there.

I just finished installing wu-ftpd 2.4 on my Sun using Solaris 2.5.  Everything
seems to be working fine except for the "ls" command.  If I type "ls", it gives
me the contents of my directory.  However, if I try to do "ls -l" or "dir", I
don't get anything.  What I am doing wrong here?  Any help on this would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Checked, double checked.  Checked vs. other Solaris boxes, 2.5.1 which
wu-ftpd will work on.  If it's a solaris problem then why is only anon ftp
being affected.  I even reran ftp-anon script that's listed in the Solaris
FAQ (which is good enough to work with standard in.ftpd on any other
machine except this one).  I'm starting to think there is system
corruption, but I can't find it.  I deleted all the devices and mknod'ed
them manually again just to make sure.  Could it be something in
/etc/system that I'm missing?  Currently /etc/system is empty.

Where can I find the FAQ?  I looked on wuarchive.wustl.edu but couldn't find
it and a SavvySearch couldn't find it either.

Sounds like a system corruption then. Though I can't imagine what it is.

Is this version stable?  I tend to not get beta's because I don't know how
stable they are.

Greetings,
	I had the same problem on Solaris 2.5 system.
Make sure the file system that contains the ftp tree is  
*NOT* mounted nosuid in the vfstab.
              ^^^^^^
By default it's mounted suid, which is what you want.

It has been about a week and I have heard nothing !

I work at an ISP, with a T3 line and SGIs with IRIX 6.2, and I
downloaded the wu-ftpd source code a number times over a week span.  I
looked at the CHECKSUMS file and noticed the following :

      sig1: md5      : 2XU0vg7YiOjc50AFgFb5uK

So I ran both md5 and md5_b64.

#Base 16 MD5
  1% md5 wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z
  MD5 (wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z) = a1780e6a1e2b18b6614028fa8f945e14

#Base 64 MD5
  2% md5_b64 wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z
  MD5 (wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z) = oXgOah4rGLZhQCj6j5ReFA

Notice something wrong with the Base 64 answer !

Are there some public keys I don't know about ?  If so, where do I get
them and what type of encryption is used to generate the digital
signatures ?  If there isn't a public key should I be worried ?

I have also attached the source code for the MD5, in case it is error,
used to generate the checksums above.  It was also freeware.  The
"-DB64" C preprocessor gets set to compile the code to work in the "Base
64 Mode".

Each log level should be prefixed by a '=' for the desired effect:

   daemon.=emerg        /usr/adm/syslogs/daemon.emerg
   daemon.=debug        /usr/adm/syslogs/daemon.debug
   ...

You should also make sure that there aren't any other across-the-board
settings for a given log level, as that may be overriding the daemon.*
settings.

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the

I have been fighting a problem for about a week that sounds like the
same thing.  Solved it just now.  I bet your ftp password entry is
something like /public/./home.  Try changing it to /public.

Now we just need to find out why it did not work for us on these
machines but seems to have worked elsewhere.


By the way I got around the need to recreate libs by doing a ro lofs
mount of /usr/lib into the chrooted /lib directory.  Seems to work
fine, anybody see any security problems in this?

/usr/lib                -       /public/lib           lofs  -       yes ro
/usr/share/lib          -       /public/usr/share/lib lofs  -       yes ro

IMO as good as they come.  There are a number of security and bug fixes in
this release that are essential.  Beta 12 has been through a long
development cycle and is worth putting in place.

Well, I'm running on SCO OpenServer 5 (SVR4) which has a release version of
3.2v5.0.2.  I've made custom authentication routines for validating
passwords, and by the code I don't think they should affect anything
relating to the actual transfers, but who knows?

Any ideas anyone?

The www page(s) on wuarchive.wustl.edu about wu-ftpd should have a link to
the faq... they did last time I looked.

Anyway, it's at http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html

Hello folks,

  My IRIX 6.2 compiler is balking at the C preprocessor variable NCARGS.
Some recursive finding in my WU source code directory and the
/usr/include directory with "find . -name \* -exec grep NCARGS {} \;
-print" reveals that this variable is undefined.  What should this
variable be set to ?

Bye,

That depends on your operating system and version of syslogd.  I have seen
the = option in Linux's syslog.conf.  The syslogd on Solaris 2.X and SunOS 4.X
doesn't have it.

I thought the same as well. =) But it's mounted nosuid.  The reason why I
came to this assumption: I rebooted and this is when the problems began
occuring.  I typed mount, and that partition is definitely mounted as
nosuid.  I'll have to assume the worst and plan to reformat the machine's

Yes,  leave the chroot part but remove the home dir part of the
password entries for the accounts that stopped working.  IE:

stlee:x:1200:14:Steve Lee:/public/./pub/stlee:/bin/csh

becomes:

stlee:x:1200:14:Steve Lee:/public:/bin/csh

Let me know if it helped.

Hi.  It sounds like you've got the vanilla 2.4 distribution.  I tried to
get that running on my Irix 5.3 machine and ran into the NCARGS problem.
Searching for ncargs in the Online books pointed me to the file

	/var/sysgen/mtune/kernel

This is a text file that specifies the values on ncargs on your machine.
After defining NCARGS based on this value, I was able to get wu-ftpd to
compile. (I may have had to make some other changes that I don't currently
recall.)
When I decided to use the academ beta 12 version instead, though, I did not
need to mess around with ncargs or any other mods to get the program to
compile. ./build sgi worked straight out of the box (tar file)

That would be a Sparc 1000 I presume. And I'm jealous.

First, this feature of wu-ftpd only works for downloads. You
absolutely cannot upload a compressed tar file and expect the server
to know that it is supposed to uncompress and untar it (as much as we
might like such a feature, it can't be done without changing the FTP
protocol).

Furthermore, while you can do on-the-fly tar or zip of directories,
the reverse doesn't make sense in this context. eg: download archive.tar.gz
and expect it to be automatically expanded on the server and sent to you
file by file. Sorry, but again you'd have to change the FTP protocol
and probably the client software.

ie: this is a server feature that relies upon NO changes to the FTP
protocol, and no special features on the client side.

Now, The server receives a request to download TEST.Z. If that file
exists, then fine, it sends it to you. If not, but a file named TEST
exists then the server compresses TEST on the fly, and you get TEST.Z
as though it had existed on the server. But if a directory named TEST
exists, no go, unless you request TEST.tar or TEST.tar.Z or
TEST.tar.gz or maybe even TEST.zip - in which case you get on-the-fly
archiving possibly combined with compression.

OTOH, suppose that TEST.Z exists (but not TEST), and you request TEST.
The server obliges and sends you TEST by uncompressing TEST.Z and
sending you the result. This might be handy if you were on a peecee
and didn't have uncompress available.

Now, for all of this to work for anonymous users, you need statically
compiled binaries for compress and tar and gzip and maybe even zip (as
in PK).  (or dynamic binaries, and all the required libraries in
~ftp/usr/lib.).

It is also necessary to have the FTP server configured properly.

You need lines such as these, in the ftpaccess file:

compress        yes             local remote
tar             yes             local

These are EXAMPLES only! See ftpaccess(5) for details.

You also need an ftpconversions file with specifications of what conversions
are allowed. Here is one possible ftpconversions file that supports
on-the-fly compress, decompress, gzip, gunzip, tar, tar and compress,
tar and gzip, and PK-like zip.

 :   : :.Z:/bin/compress -c %s:T_REG:O_COMPRESS:COMPRESS
 :.Z:  :  :/bin/compress -cd %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS
 :   : :.gz:/bin/gzip -c %s:T_REG:O_COMPRESS:GZIP
 :.gz: :  :/bin/gzip -cd %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:GUNZIP
 :   : :.tar:/bin/tar -c -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_TAR:TAR
 :   : :.tar.Z:/bin/tar -c -Z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+COMPRESS
 :   : :.tar.gz:/bin/tar -c -z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+GZIP
 :   : :.zip:/bin/zip -qr - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:ZIP

at least, it seems to work for me under Solaris 2.4 and 2.5, alas not
on a 1000, but on 5's and 10's. Doing zip is definitely questionable,
but I think I tested it once :)

Hi.. Thanks.  However, it seems changing /public/./pub/stlee to /public 
would stop the chroot from working. But, I'll give  it a try.

I tried it.  Again, 2.4 worked fine, 2.4.2-beta12 failed again. Log in to 
ftp with a guest account, do a dir, get the right dir, do a "cd /" and 
then a "dir" again. 2.4 gives the same directory as the first time, beta 
12 gives the actual "/" root directory.

You are having a different problem than I had.  I am not completely set
up yet I hope I do not run your problem too.

It does however look like the chroot part of wu-ftp_2.4-beta_12 is a
bit broken.  I found I could not use the /./cd2dir feature and you are
finding that you can cd out of the chrooted path.  I wonder how long
before a fix is out?

Yes, you are indeed correct.  Someone else pointed this out to me in
private email.  Judging from the man page, it appears that the syslog used
by Linux may be the only one supporting this functionality. 

Sorry for any confusion.

Scott (JACOBS), thanks for the warm tip.  The following are important
tweeks that I noted to get the wu-ftpd-2.4 to compile on IRIX6.2.

  For IRIX 6.2 things are a little different than IRIX 5.2.  The maximum
number of arguments that can be passed to a routine can be configured on
the fly with the "systune" command.  As root, you can find the setting
of the NCARGS variable by performing a "systune | grep ncargs".  I
believe the IRIX 6.2 default is 20480 or 0X5000.  After having found
what NCARGS should be on my machine, I put a hack into the top of the
glob.c file, "#define NCARGS (20480)".  This wasn't pretty, but I am too
short on time to research for any kernel system inquiry routines. 

  I also has to tweek the Makefile, by adding a "-cckr" to the CFLAGS,
to hush the compiler complaints about file ftpd.c on the three lines
containing "va_start(ap)" macros.

  The last tweek was to set LIBC to nothing in the Makefile.  It was
originally set to "/usr/lib/libc.a".
  
   The code compiles.  Tomorrow we will see if it works !

Bye,

Subject: signal 11 error, virtual ftp, "ftp" v "anon" login.
X-Mts: smtp
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


Hi,

I'm trying to set up Virtual Hosts on a FreeBSD box.
I've already got it running on another FreeBSD box,
but I've run into a problem which I'm sure is 
a stupid configuration error, but I just can't see it.

Anyway -

Problem:

When you ftp to the machines proper hostname (i.e the main
directory of the ftp server), everything is fine.

When you ftp to a virtual host (all of which point to 
sub directories of the man ftp directory), you can log on
as "anonymous", and everything works fine. BUT if you log as
"ftp", as soon as you do a dir or ls, you get the old 

421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

and our friend signal 11 appears in messages. 

I've set things up identically on two servers. One is running
FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE (the problem one) and the other, which
behaves fine is running FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE.

I've taken the compiled ftpd from the "good" machine
and run it on the bad, to no effect.

I've had a look through th archives for anything similar, but it is
1:15 am after a rather hectic week, so apologies if I've missed 
something obvious. :-)

regards,
Ed

The Solaris 2 FAQ has a script (I think it's called ftp_anon) to setup the
FTP directory structure. I ran the script and it solved my problems with: 
425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.

But then I ran into problems with my ftpaccess file. WU-FTPD would not
allow "real" users into the system or disallow "deletes" by anonymous
users.  Turns out I simply had to create a /etc/shells file (in the real
filesystem, not under the ftp directory).  It's all described in the
wu-ftpd FAQ, but may not be obvious becuase it says something about AIX
systems.  

If it's any glimmer of hope, wu-ftpd-b12 will run on a Solaris 2.5.1 box!

Hope this helps!  Feel free to contact me with any questions, I'll try to 
help as much as I can. 
Ken

One thing to be careful of is that more than one virtual host accessing
a single filesystem don't clobber each other's pid files (on my machine,
that's /usr/local/daemon/ftpd/...

Hope this helps.

I had downloaded the documentation and in the process of setting it up on
Solaris 2.5, I noticed that there was an error in your documentation where you
are creating  ~dev/zero.  The command read "mknod zero c 3 12".  When I set it
up that way, I started getting errors about "device not being found".  On
further investigation, I found that the actual command should be "mknod zero c
13 12".  I am not sure if any one else has noticed this mistake in the
documentation.  If it is not a mistake,  I apologize.
Hope this helps.

Instead of hardwiring numbers like that into the documentation, a better
approach for Solaris would be to do what the ftpd man page says:  run

ls -lL /dev/zero

(and similarly for the other devices) and use whatever numbers the ls
command returns.

To avoid worrying about the major and minor numbers, use cpio to

find /dev/zero -print | cpio -pd ~ftp

I haven't seen this mentioned, and am curuios about it because I am
thinking of implementingthe software, does wu-ftpd support one time
passwords, such as those with s/key and opie?  I would much prefer to be
able to use wu-ftpd still, instead of going with the one supplied with
opie(which is the specific package im looking at, ive read that s/key has
serious flaws)

Many thanks for any info you can provide me :)

I missed the earlier part of this thread, but make sure you have wu-ftpd
beta12 or higher.  beta11 has a buffer overrun in the virtual ftp handling
that was causing segv's and:
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
for me on linux.

I'm new to the list so this one may already have been pointed out, but
another possible cause of SEGVs is the

	reply(530, "User %s access denied...(%s)", name);

at line 1183 of ftpd.c, although that would depend on the user being in
ftpusers or having an invalid shell. They could have changed the
implementation of vsnprintf in the later OS release to cause/prevent
the SEGV. Neil.

I'd also like to note that the above error is also present in the beta-12
version, as was causing error 11s (SEGV) for me running on SCO
OpenServer 5.

What I mean is NOT the upload clause in the ftpaccess, but setting 
one mode for all users when they upload files to their dirs (now is 
rw-rw-r which is VERY bad security wise, should be rwx-rx-rx).

Is it possible at all? (IMO must be, as no software would have such a 
big security hole still not fixed!)

As I wrote in my other message just a bit later, I was looking for 
the umask...and I did try -u for ftpd in inetd.conf, BUT
-u 755 gives:
-----w--w-
and so does -u 0755 (yes, I rebooted the server for this to take 
effect).

So what is the way to get 755 default file upload more for all users 
(when they upload files to their home dirs, etc.)? It is not the 
upload clause, nor the -u 755 for inetd.conf ftpd entry as far as I 
can see...

(I am using wu-ftpd 2.4.2b11 on Solaris 2.5.1/ISS 1.0).

I have searched through the wu-ftpd (2.4.2b11) docs and have not been 
able to find anything on this...
how do I set the default uploaded file modes to other than the 
default? (otherwise now it has group write as well, which is very bad 
for a multi-user system!).
(Is this a command line option to add to inetd.conf or a compile time 
option? How can it be set, etc?)

Thanks in advance!

See the upload directive in /etc/ftpaccess.  Make sure you are running -a
on the wu.ftpd line in inetd.conf.

man ftpaccess

This is a very important issue, if you succeed to make
the server SIGVEC, that means somene can play on the
stack an issue arbitrary commands.

In the reply(), I see a danger if debug is set 
then vsprintf() may overrun the buffer.
can you confirm ?
If you have a patch, can you mail it to
Mr Barber and Cc the list please

I get builds just dandy with IBM's C compiler (cc). I don't use gcc
primarily because cc builds a more suitable loader that runs on more
different AIX boxes, among other reasons.

That's exactly correct.  The umask is just the opposite of the permission
bits; it defines which permissions to NOT allow upon creating new files,
devices, directories, etc.  So in this case: 

    777   -rwxrwxrwx   all permissions
  - 755   -rwxr-xr-x   subtract umask
 -------
     22   -----w--w-   resultant permissions

Thus, if you want a default of 755, set the umask to 22.

Hi,

there were some messages concering the stableness of the current
beta-versions, but nobody mentioned checksums. Are there checksums
available?

Subject: Installing over the top of manufacturer's version
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I'm trying to upgrade from 2.4 to 2.4.2-beta-12, and find that the default
install (for Solaris 2.5) installs ftpd as /usr/sbin/in.ftpd and the man
pages under /usr/share/man.

Can anyone reassure me as to how resiliant this would be if the system were
to be patched, say to cope with the latest CERT scare. Would install_patch
notice that /usr/sbin/in.ftpd was not as originally installed, or that its
manpage had been replaced, or might it blithely overwrite the wu-ftpd version
with a patched but nowhere near as good Solaris version?

Thanks in advance,

John Attwood.

Is there any way to setup the ftp daemon to attach to a port and stay

i personally suggest that you NEVER install over original system files. 
imho, it is always a good idea to keep installed stuff separate from 
system stuff.

the reason is that you want to be able to stick in the solaris cd-rom 
and not have to worry or try to remember which files will get hosed and 
which won't, the same goes with patches...

that is what /usr/local/* is for...

Based on my experiences with sendmail, it would most likely 
blithely overwrite the rogue wu-ftpd binary it found.

It will do this (at least vis a vis sendmail) even if you roll
up a separate package for it & "pkgadd" it.

You can probably overcome this by writing an appropriate patch
package, but I don't know how to do this yet.  The only documentation
for how Sun does this is in the installpatch script, as far as
I have been able to tell.  If anyone knows more about this I'd
like to talk to you.

John,

If you use the installpatch script that comes with Sun's patches the checksum 
information will be different and the upgrade of the patch should fail.

I should have added that the behavior of the solaris installation
programs depends on what you're doing, or "can depend".

installpatch will probably act as I described.  A fresh re-install
will probably act as I described.  An "upgrade" install is a little
unpredictable.  It may replace.  It may replace & complain.
It _may_  skip this ftpd binary, or even blow up & refuse to finish the
upgrade (this happens sometimes when something about the patch
set you have installed causes it problems).  These things shouldn't
really happen, but I'm warning you anyway because I don't want
anyone closing in on me with lawyers!

Hi all,

Thanks to everyones help, I have wu-ftpd beta 12 installed on my solaris
2.5.1 system.  I am currently running it without the -a option since I am
trying to figure out the ftpaccess file.  I have the man page, plus the
O'Reilly book "Managing Internet Information Services" (is that out of
date?) plus the guest accounts post that was posted on the list recently.

>From all of that, I gather that if I create a group in the /etc/group file
and then reference it in the guestgroup line of the ftpaccess, anyone I put
in that group will have restricted access (depending on where the /./ is in
the path).  So my assumtion is that I can create one group, have various
people in it, each with their own private ftp area, is that right?

However, what I don't know is where the ftpgroup file comes in. There is no
man page for it, it is not mentioned in the book, yet there is an example of
it under doc/examples, what is it's function?

As always, thanks for any and all help

I'd like to use the Unix zip programs to archive directories (and/or files)
in a fashion similar to that support for tar. After looking over some of
the source and documentation I can decide if this should require source
mods or just a line or two in ftpconversions.

Has anyone done this, or can you offer advice one way or the other?

if you browse to the archive, you'll find
plenty of examples, it was a 'hot' topic last year.

You just need to modify ftpconversion and have a version
of zip that can do stuff on the fly.

Yes I have done this with ftpconversions only - no source mods.
It even works. Write me if you want my ftpconversions file.

yes, I have to agree wu-ftpd have a very loose definition of terms
guest sometimes means anonymous
or guest accounts or guestgroup etc ...

In this case the file ftpgroup is use for two particular
commands.

SITE GROUP
SITE GPASS

So a person may change is gid and access some particular file
this is enable by putting
private yes
in ftpaccess.

for the man pages do 
man ftpaccess
and look under private, also under autogroup.

Works great with just a simple addition to the 'ftpconversions' file. 
Also make sure that you have the latest version of '(un)zip' (unzip 5.12
zip 2.1) which can handle accepting filenames from STDIN.  Below is the
'ftpconversions' file that works for me on SunOs 4.1.3.

Hi,
  I am running wu-ftpd 2.4 on Digital Unix 4.0a. I am having trouble
getting a directory listing for guest users set up as described in the
guest-howto written by Michael Brennen. I have copied the statically
linked version of ls to the local directory (in this case
/www/users/~username/bin), and I can't get a directory listing using
ws-ftp and other Windows-based clients. Command line ftp will return a
listing if ls is called without any flags. ls -l from the command line
returns nothing. Does anyone have any ideas? Apologies if I've missed
something obvious.

Regards, Ger.

I had to use gnu tar in order to get tarred and compressed output.  I
am using the info-zip package for Unix for .zip files, the installed
compress command for .Z, and gnuzip for .gz.  In order to get the
info-zip package to work for anonymous ftp I had to add libbsd.a to the
~ftp/lib directory.  (This system is AIX 3.2.5.1.)

This had been tested using a pure-DOS FTP client and the info-zip
components work just fine, zipping and unzipping "on the fly".
(No, that was not originally intended as a double-entendre.)

Here is my ftpconversions file:

ftpcount needs the file _PATH_PIDNAMES to work properly
usually 
_PATH_PIDNAMES --> /etc/ftp.pid-%s

That's where all the accounting takes place

If you don't have the src code do a 

strings - ftpcount
and try to figure out where is _PATH_PIDNAMES

Note: it also uses /bin/ps -f -p but that should be allright for Linux

A while back we had to do a restore of some data that got messed up after
a disk crash; the original wu-ftpd source was one of those pieces of data.
Apparently the checksums didn't get recreated correctly (or were recreated
with some strange arcane method).

I went through and verified the contents of the archives and re-calculated
their checksums (with md5, BSD-sum and SYSV-sum).  Everything should check
out correctly now.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

To my knowledge, there are currently no checksums available, although I'm
certainly not the official word. We mirror the betas on wuarchive, though,
so I'd be more than happy to generate the same types of checksums that we
used for the original, if anyone's interested.  (Stan?)

Never used it myself; I'm not sure what it is either.  I've never needed
it to do what I've needed to do.  Hope that last one made sense. :)

It was on beta11. upgrading to beta 12 solved the problem. 
Funny thing is beta11 is working fine with virtual servers
on FreeBSD 2.1.0. 

Just to recap, the problem was when when users ftp'd into
a virtual server as "ftp" (not anonymous), and tried to 
do ls or dir, the connection would fall over. I suspect
the same thing would happen with any other command in 
the server's /bin (I also have tar and gzip in there),
but didn't get a chance to test it. 

Seeing as the problem doesn't occur with beta 12, or beta 
11 on FreeBSD 2.1.0, I guess it's some FreeBSD 2.1.5 <-> wu-ftpd 
beta 11 problem. Don't have time to track it down though. :-)

Ed

I suspect it's a case of stomping of different memory locations on
different systems with different results.  Beta11 was out for quite some
time, and I assume someone must have tried virtual ftp on linux before me. 

I've noticed with other things (innd) that memory corruption errors can
have wildly different results on the same platform where the only
difference is binary format (elf vs a.out).

yes, virtual ftp w/ wu-ftpd( beta 12)  works fine for my linux box
( linux-2.0.28 )...One key for "getting what I wanted" is that
each virtual domain must have it's own unique IP number... :-(
	You can see how I set it up by reviewing my pages at:
	http://www.Linux-Consulting.com/FAQ_virtual

Use guestgroup in ftpaccess. See the manpage for ftpaccess for configuration.
With guestgroup, wu-ftp make a chroot into the home directory of the user.

I think, thats what the guestgroup feature is for.
I have set up several users for exactly this behaviour and it works
fine.

since switching to wuftpd from SunOS-ftpd i have recieved complaints
from one PC user the problem appears to be his client. he is not using
a windows ftp client he has only a dos ftp client and it cant handle
the banner.msg, welcome.msg, or .message. i know this is not a wuftpd
problem i am hoping that someone else has run into this. i need to find
a solution for this PC user. does anyone know of PC clients that can
handle these messages?

Hi all,

I thought I had my wu-ftpd beta 12 working fine on my solaris 2.5.1 and then
I hit a snag.  Basically, all my guest users work great, but when I ftp in,
instead of being a real user, I get the message I am restricted and then of
course, nothing works (ls, cd, etc) because I don't have all the directories
in my path.

I know this is a problem with my ftpaccess file, but I don't know what I am
doing wrong.  Here is my ftpaccess file:

class   all   real,guest,anonymous  *

message /welcome.msg            login

compress        no             local remote
tar             no             local remote

delete             no             anonymous,guest
overwrite          no             anonymous
rename             no             anonymous
chmod              no             anonymous,guest
umask              no             anonymous,guest

guestgroup ftpguest

log commands real
log transfers anonymous,guest,real inbound,outbound

email admin@pop2.eworks.com


As you can see, it's pretty basic, I'm not doing anything fancy with it.
So, I know it is probably some really dumb thing, but if anyone has any
idea, I would MOST appreciate it!

Thanks!

This is an *old* FAQ; haven't heard this one in a while.  Have him put a -
(dash) in front of his password:.  This is only valid for anonymous login.

I had this problem as well.

In my case, I had MY user listed in /etc/group with the group defined as a
guestgroup. As such, I was treated as a guest and not a real user.

Solution was to remove my username from the group in /etc/group. This
allowed me to log in as a real user.

boof...  I just checked source at ftpd.c, beta 12, line 1344:

    if (!anonymous) {    /* "ftp" is only account allowed no password */
        if (*passwd == '-')
            passwd++;

You're right.  I figured since '-' was a valid real/guest password
character they would skip the check.  Au contraire...

hello

:         if (*passwd == '-')
:             passwd++;

It also means that if your passwd start with '-'
you will never be able to loggin as a real user.

Amusing don't you think :-)
Especially, when you have a student bugging you
by the fact that he can't FTP, poor kid.

that filling out the form has helped them work through the incident.

Note that our policy is to keep any information specific to your site
confidential unless we receive your permission to release that information.

Please feel free to duplicate any section as required.  Please return this

I changed the zip line slightly so you can zip up entire directories
(like .tar.gz) and it looks like it works fine:

 :.zip: : :/bin/unzip  -qq -p %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNZIP
 : : :.zip:/bin/zip -qq -r - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:ZIP

The recursive flag (-r) doesn't cause any problems if the argument is
a regular file, so this works.  Or at least it did for me on a Solaris
2.4 system with beta-12.

I'll say something is strange.  None of the above works for me.  I do a dir
and get:

X
Because I have a slow modem link, I offer an http server that does
dynamic redirections on requests to fetch for the big stuff via the web.
X
But ftp doesn't support such things, so I'm stuck with my line getting
sucked down by the mad clickers who've never done anything more with a
computer than click the mouse in a web browser.
X
I prefer that people not use ftp for large transfers, but I can't stop
them.  Well, couldn't.  Here's a patch that allows for flexible password
validation checking.  The goal is not to create junk mail, but rather
to dissuade the neophyte internet wannabes from using ftp instead of http.
X
It is enabled by this line in the ftpaccess file:
X
X    # passwd-check  <none|trivial|rfc822|bogus>  [<enforce|warn>]
X    passwd-check  bogus  enforce
X
That means it will do a password verification check by calling an external
filter.  This filter defaults to a program called "ftpdckr" (_PATH_PWDCHK)
in the same place as the other ftp{users,access,conversions,groups} go.
You may set this to another program by placing this in the ftpaccess file:
X
X    bogus-filter /usr/local/etc/ftpucheck
X
If you wish to issue a special message upon failure, you can do 
with a line like this:
X
X    passwd-failure  /usr/etc/msg.badpass
X
The bogus passwd filter program is expected to take as its first argument
the password supplied, and to exit 0 if it's ok, and non-zero if it's not
ok.  Any extra logging is up to the filter.
X
X    SECURITY WARNING: You must be careful if using this checker from other
X    programs to take care to use only execvp() (or its moral equivalent)
X    and not a random system() on it, because there could of course be
X    shell escapes in the argument.
X
A sample checker is supplied (called ckaddr in this distribution).  It is
more than slightly persnicketty.  It will serve as a general-purpose
user@host.dom checker as well, such as for CGI programs, etc.
X
I don't know for sure whether this should make its way into the standard
wu-ftpd, but I've had it asked for so many times that here it is.

X
If you are using a web browser and/or proxy server, please report to your
service provider or software vendor that their product is homogenizing
all email addresses, and that this is evil.
X
Proxy servers are notoriously secretive, and web browsers are getting
that way.  For example, some versions of Netscape always say "mozilla"
(until the 3.0 release, where it's configurable), and Micro$oft's
Internet Explorer masquerades as "webuser".  Such bogus email responses
are simply not acceptable on this site.
X
It may be possible for you to instead of using something like that
ftp://ftp.somewhere.dom/, to manually specify ftp://ftp@ftp.somewhere.dom/
and be prompted for your real email address.  Please be a good net citizen
and place it there.  Rest assured that you will not be placed on any
junk-mail mailing lists as a result of this action.
X
If that doesn't work, you can always use something like Mosaic.  Better
yet, go get yourself a *real* ftp program.  It turns out that things
like ncftp are phenomenally more featureful and useful than the 
mini ftp clients found in most web browsers.
X
The truth is that I have a slow ftp connection, so I have to restrict
access somehow.  This is the best way I've come up with, because it keeps
out billions and billions of K00l D00DZ who can't do anything but point
and click.

Hello, my name is Thomas McDonald, and I'm trying to set the wuftpd ftp 
server. I'm anxious to get it set up, but I'm VERY new to the unix OS, so 
could someone tell me how to unzip the file? I've never done it before 
and I'd appreciate it if someone helped me out.

Thanks, Thom

When viewing the output of an 'ls -l' command, the date/time shown
appears to be GMT.  I would like this to be my local timezone
(US/Pacific).  I tried setting the TZ environment variable in ftpd, but
it didn't seem to have any effect on the execution of ~ftp/bin/ls.

Is there anyway to do this?  If so, how?

Thanks for your time.  Hope everyone has a great weekend.

tar xzf wu-ftpd....

where .... is the rest of the file name.  That will extract the contents
into a directory.  Read the README and INSTALL docs, as well as others,
carefully so you know what you are getting into.  Some reading about FTP
security would be very advisable for you before you put it online.  See
the data below for more references.

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the
directory contents, but get the file anyway.  It's there.

 Greetings,
 
 I'm working on getting the so called "guest user" feature of
 WU Archive FTP server to work. (have everything else working)
 I've read Managing Internet Information Services chapter(s) on 
 this, and it's not clear to me, set it up according to the FAQ,
 the book, the man pages, and it doesn't work.  According to (my 
 understanding of) the book you get in using "ftp ftpserver", 
 and then use the "ftp>user guest-login" command, or perhaps 
 "ftp>site group field" and "ftp>site gpass passwd". I will be 
 glad to describe what I've done in my spare time ;-) (for 30 days)
 in detail, to someone who knows, and is willing to help, but will 
 spare the network bandwidth in this posting.
 
 In short, this is what happens:
 
 unix% ftp ftpserver
 Connected to ftpserver
 220 ftpserver FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1) `date` ready.
 Name (ftpserver:dh: ftp
 331 Guest login ok, send your complete email address as passwd.
 Password:
 230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
 ftp> user guest-login
 530 Can't change user from guest login.
 Login failed.
 ftp>
 
 Where "guest-login" is the name of a Customer, and a guest-login setup
 according to the book, the FAQ(s), and the manpages. [over 100 things
 have been tried I'd estimate].  I imagine we should be on a much newer
 version, but management is reluctant to shine on their investment.
 
 Many Thanks, David

You are probably missing the /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo directory from your
FTP root - ie. ~ftp/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo...

>From the Solaris man page (admittedly Solaris 2.5, not 2.4) :-
   ~ftp/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo
                    Make this directory mode 555 and  owned  by  the
                    super-user.      Copy    its    contents    from
                    /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo.  This enables ls -l  to
                    display time and date stamps correctly.

If I recall correctly, you don't really need the whole of this directory,
just the bits relevant to your timezone, but copying the whole thing a la
man page won't hurt.

I hope this helps !

Cheers, Bob

Thanks, that got the file unpacked... But I can't seem to find the

you possibly help me out again? Hate to bother everyone. Thanks.

Do you have the -a flag on the wu.ftpd line in /etc/inetd.conf?

okay... Call me stupid, but I got that far now, however, I'm really lost 
now. I've done everything the INSTALL file says, but I keep getting 
errors and things. For one thing, the ver. of UnixWare I'm on isn't in 
the list, and I don't know how to edit make it work.... Can someon help 
me AGAIN? I know I'm probably getting on people's nerves who've been 
doing this for awhile, but like I said, I'm extremely new to Unix. 
Please help.

I had asked this a while ago and didn't see any answers and I saw
that someone also asked the question. Is there a way to run wuftpd
without using the inetd.conf file to exec it. I'm thinking maybe like
inittab does login. I was looking for a way to reduce the overhead of
the fork exec of inetd for a busy server. If anyone has any other
advice for performance improvements I'm not very experienced in this
area.

Thanks in advance

Doug

I have an unusual configuration to cook together.

My customer wants to have a secure transfer point to allow
external contractors to xchange files with internal employees.

The customer has purchased 2 FTP boxes, which we'll call ftpin
and ftpout.  In addition they have a spare, and a router/packet
filtering system.

All are running Linux (RH 4.x with shadow the shadown suite installed
and new kernels (2.0.27).  The packet filtering system has *everything*
ripped out of the inetd.conf and most of the daemons removed from 
the /etc/rc.d/ files.  It sends mail but doesn't receive it.  No
remote access to this machine is possible (in any way that I know of).

Now I'm stuck on configuring the ftp boxes.  There will be now
anonymous FTP.  I've configured wu-ftpd and will be installing 
the beta 12 from Academ (pursuant the the SIGURG bug from 
bugtraq and (much later) reported by CERT).  I'm using WU's 
guestgroup diretive -- and putting all accounts on this machine
into one of the groups (inside or outside).

The customer wants one of these systems (ftpin) to only allow uploads
(from the outside) and downloads ONLY from a proxying host
(which their internal personnel already use for all access to 
the Internet).  

So they want me to limit the access controls based on the address 
of the connection.  For this I'm playing with the WU "class" 
directive.  This doesn't seem to be working (maybe building
the beta 12 and replacing the beta 11 that ships with RH 4.0 will
fix that).  It seems that the "class" directive is supposed to 
set users into classes based on two factors -- which "type" of 
user is it (anonymous, user, or guest) and where the connection
is coming from (using "address globs" -- similar to the patterns
in TCP Wrappers).

I'm also experimenting with the "autogroup" directive.  
I gather, from the ftpaccess man page that this is supposed to 
accomplish something like the SITE GROUP/SITE GPASS commands
(assign user the permissions of a group) based on class.
Allegedly, once I get the "class" stuff working -- this will
also work.

Finally I'm playing with the "upload" directive. Unfortunately
the "upload" directive doesn't seem to take a class parameter
(bummer).

Are you confused yet?  I am.

It seems that combining all these features together to get the
desired behavior is a bit tricky.   (We haven't even started
work on the ftpout server -- which is supposed to have an
entirely complementary role in all of this).

I guess I want it to work something like:

external user logs in.  Since he/she is a member of one of the 
"guestgroups" ftpd chroot() to our /home/.ftp/ directory -- and
then cd's to that user's "home" directory under that.  Based on
where their connection is comming from they are assigned a class
of "insider" or "outsider."  

Outsiders are allowed to upload in any of the (chroot)/home/ directories
(by WU-FTPD's "upload" directive) and they are further limited by Unix'
native permissions on those directories.  (This should limit every user
to their own directory under (chroot)/home/ -- all the chmod and SITE
EXEC commands are disabled).  In addition the filenames are limited 
such that they must start with a letter or a digit, and must contain
only letters, digits, dashes and/or dots (using the path-filter directive).
The upload directive specifies that all uploads will be owned by
some arbitrary non-ftp user ('ftpadmin' -- who is listed in the
ftpusers file) and group-owned by "insiders."  wu-ftpd will also set the
permissions of all uploads (640).

Insiders are "autogroup"ed into the "insiders" group (which allows
them to read any of the uploads.  Hmm -- is *any* employee supposed
to be able to read *any* upload?  I can use "user" permissions to 
limit access to directories -- will that be sufficient to prevent
employee A from accessing the files that are intended for employee
B?

Also these machine will allow all users to change their 
passwords via telnet.  In the /etc/passwd file all user's
shells are listed as /usr/bin/passwd.   Any known or
potential vulnerabilities in that (for the host -- we assume
that some sniffer might get a name/password combo).

Anyway -- I'm not sure what my question really is.  I'll have to 
bang on this some more and get it up and running.  If anyone has
some tips or caveats for me -- I'd be glad to hear them.

Would something like this work:

Outside users would have one directory ... in.coming that is owned by

some user and the inbound (for lack of a better name) group. The outside
users would have write access (world write) but NO READ access. (These
systems appear to be a black hole to an outside user... they can upload
files but can not see any of the files that are there)

Local users would have entries in the normal way. They would get dumped
into their home directory upon login BUT they are members of the inbound
group and DO have read access to /home/ftp/Incoming which is a symlink
from a directory in their home dir. (/home/usr1/ftp ->/home/ftp/Incoming)
and they can read all files there. They would also need write to delete
them.

Just a thought.

Subject: WU-Ftpd question

In the ftpaccess file, there are permission attributes such as DELETE,
CHMOD,  RENAME.  

Is there a hack to allow me to apply these to various groups rather than
the three types (REAL, GUEST, ANONYMOUS).  We have a downlaod area that is
managed as a guest area.  On the same server we have an upload area for
our web developers. Both are chrooted, guest-type areas.  We don't want
the download area folks to be able to do anything but downlaod. But the
web developers may need to be able to rename or delete. (Note that they
aren't uploading directly to our site, but rather to a "holding area")

The docs say that the permission attributes such as DELETE etc can be
applied to "types".  Is there a way to apply them to groups?

I've been trying to figure out a way so that I can limit a set of
directories to be accessible by anonymous users from the local network,
but no one else.  Is there a method with which I can do this?  Thanks.

BTW: I looked in the FAQ but I didn't see anything about this.

thanks.

Do you use shadow passwords by any chance ?

wu-ftpd doesn't use shadow passwords by default.

I'v seen this before, and seem to remember that if the client explicitly
selects binary transfers for single files, or "Raw Data" for "text
files" & "Raw Data" for "other files", for mass file transfers, the
problem does not appear. What the problem is, though, I don't know.

Hope this helps.

Hello Carlos-

I have battled this EXACT SAME problem for the past year, and it wasn't
until about six weeks ago that we fixed it.

You should make sure you have the latest fetch (3.0.2b3) from
www.dartmouth.edu/pages/softdev/fetch.html

The release notes claim to fix this particular problem, but in our case we
had to also check the "use PASV mode" preference.  (Customize menu ->
Preferences -> Firewall)

Good luck, let me know if there is anything else I can do to help.

My experience is that you _also_ need to have ~ftp/etc/default/init as
well.  You only need to pupulate the zoneinfo hierarchy with the
information pointed to by the init file.

Yep.  Slackware 3.1 includes both, and installs both by default.

Note that you don't need to link libshadow, either, if you're compiling
wu-ftpd as an ELF binary.  This is discussed in the NOTES file in the
wu-ftpd distribution (toward the bottom).

Or fetch a copy of beta12, which fixes this problem and numerous others:

yes redhat does have a shadow packing installed but it does not modify the passwd file unless you invoke it.  this is true as far as i know.  but you would think that redhat wouldnt distribute wu-ftpd without shadow support already configured if shadowing is installed.  i am running out of ideas

Hello all!
	I'm new to the world of wu-ftpd, and I can't get it to recognize 
the existence of the /etc/ftpaccess file.  I'm running it on a BSDI 2.1 
box.  I've:

- checked the strings in wuftpd to make sure it's looking for /etc/ftpaccess
- created the file with a simple deny * - doesn't work.
- made sure there's no -A argument for ftpd in /etc/inetd.conf

Is there some magic I'm not doing correctly here?

Thanks all...

Karl

PS  Is there a wu-ftpd FAQ anywhere???

Through a combination of answers provided, I've now solved my problem.

Would the list admin *PLEASE* fix this list manager to quit bouncing mail
with this kind of trivia trap?  I understand the need to trap list manager
keywords and keep silliness off the lists, but this is getting ridiculous. 
I can't say "Get the latest version... ", "Put -a on the command line...",
etc.  I don't know how many of these I've had come back in my face, and
I'm getting rather frustrated with it.  I'm also tired of trying to second
guess what it will and won't bounce, or forgetting from time to time what
I already well know.

Hopefully the >>> below will keep this post from bouncing also.

Hi all,

I'm setting up wu-ftpd 2.4 on Solaris 2.4 platform, could you kindly give me 
some directions to solve the following problem?

1) can't log into /var/log/syslog
2) wu-ftpd can't parse ~ftp/etc/ftpaccess

Any advices will be welcomed. Thanks in advance.

you need a -a argument for ftpd to read the ftpaccess file in inetd.conf

You've to run wu-ftpd with the -a option in order to use /etc/ftpaccess.

Example :
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/ftpd -a

For ftponly to be accepted by wu-ftpd, it needs to be in /etc/shells.

Hi all,

I've just installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on Solaris2.4 Sparc20 platform, but the 
on-the-fly decompression doesn't work. It can't recognize the file, so 
return error said that

I'm using the /usr/bin/compress shipped with OS by copying it to ~ftp/bin 
and I used ldd to check for shared library and copy them to ~ftp/usr/lib. 
This is the excerpt of my ftpconversions.

Anyone can kindly help. Thanks in advance.

I would like to set up wu-ftpd so that when a user logs in, his Home 
directory is mounted via nfs.  How can I set it up so that when the user 
logs in, the mount is performed.

I don't want to keep the directories constantly mounted, just whenever 
the user logs in, and umounted when they log out.

Can it be done?

Very easy.  Use Sun's automount program.  Please check with the
FM, it's very different in Solaris and SunOS, but it's somewhat 
like this:

automount fires off automatically from rc.local, or /etc/rcN.d/SNN*

automount automatically reads auto.master or auto_master

auto.master is configured to use auto.direct (auto_direct).

/-	/etc/auto.direct

Use the same mount point described in auto.direct and in /etc/passwd.

You've just described an automounter.  Run your server on any system that
supports an automounter (many do these days) and you're in business.

so, if i change the ftpd.c to LOG_LOCAL7 and similarly change the 
/etc/syslog.conf, it should work, right?

To add to Michael comments:
 gtar have an option --rsh-command that will allow to send arbitrary
commands, so you don't want it in _PATH_EXECPATH.
Gtar can also do it's own globing "*" '?' etc .. on the
archive, I don't think its a danger(then again :-),
the ftpconversion file is very much static.

Note: this is not a security hole from gtar nor wu-ftpd,
 one should always watch what they put in _PATH_EXECPATH.

IMHO
The Net is already loaded why untarring on the fly.
Tarring, do it manually it takes a few seconds and
release the server from the load.

In fact, if you don't need all the fancy globing, recursive search(-R) and
options(all the good stuff:), you can write an ls that will hold in one
page. The server will benifit from this, no need to popen()/exec("/bin/ls")

Of course if you down rewriting ls from scrath with all of it's features
you're better of with popen("/bin/ls")

There is a patch lying around see the archive
  - Jedipatch3(Frank Denis) Don't know the status
  - Emil had a patch for static ls on solaris(GNU fileutils)
    I don't remember the status either.

If you have a large number of guest users, and you don't really care
about the names showing up in replies to "ls" or "dir" do you really
need the etc directory for each user ?

(Copying these executables for each guest user just takes up space and
you might forget to do this for a given user !)

Plus if you don't care about on-the-fly tar/compress, you don't need
most of the stuff in bin.

If you "build in" your ls in ftpd you don't need the bin directory at
all ?

rtfm.mit.edu gives out a greeting that says "rtfm ftpd with built in ls".
Is this version generally available or has MIT modified the ftpd source
to do this ?

1: don't copy them; use hard links instead.

2: don't manually do this; custom sh/perl scripts work wonders.

You probably should not have tar in there anyway; at least with GNU tar
you can give a shell escape on the tar command line.

True -- if you don't want to allow people to add extra parameters such as
-l, -CF, etc.

Encountered the same Problem (I think) last night and solved it ...  ;-)

Remember that your entry in /etc/passwd results in a chroot() environment
which requires its own /bin and /etc in /var/www/acme/ if you don=B4t sha=

this directory with you anonymous ftp setup.

Still, the above is just a wild guess, but creating /bin and /etc and cop=

the required files (ls, tar, gzip, passwd, ...) made my ftp guest account=

work. Before I had the same problems with files and dirs not showing up.

Hi all,

We are running wu-ftpd-2.4 under Solaris 2.5.1 on a SparcCenter 2000.
To improve security, we would like to UPGRADE to wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12.

What are the steps required to avoid a complete re-installation?

Thanks for any advice,

Dominique

Hello all...

Thanks for the RTFM on getting wu-ftpd to use the ftpaccess file...

Now that I have that working, I set up a guest user via the 
guestgroup command.

When one of those users does an 'ls' or a 'dir', the files they own 
appear as their user ID number, and not their actual login name.  For real 
users, they see their login name and that's what I'd like guests to see 
too.  

Is there something I'm overlooking here?

Karl

That's why ~/etc/{passwd,group} are in the chroot tree.  ls should pull
from there to see the names, not numbers.

You don't have etc/passwd and etc/group in the guest user's home
directory. Nothing lost. Just no names, that's all.

If you really want names, you need to make copies of /etc/passwd and
/etc/group in each of the guest users' home directories.

Hello,
I am using wu 2.4 and sometimes users that are anonymously ftping are
getting extended server errors when they try and log in.  Any idea of what
this is??

   This often means that they are trying to download a file that has
permissions that disallow it. It's an error that Microsoft Internet
Explorer spews out...

Dear sir,
  I've attach below a step by step anwser
by Tom Christiansen on 'howto' unsubscribe.
I hope it will be usefull to you. Ho ! I almost
forgot you can try listmaster@mail.wustl.edu
or listproc@mail.wustl.edu. But I do *highly*
recommend Tom's approach first.

Please read the following *carefully*, it may
be of help in other mailing lists.

###################################################
#Heres how to unsubscribe:#
##########################
First, ask your Internet Provider to mail you an Unsubscribing Kit.
Then follow these directions.

The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on
requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating
System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be
dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have
fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large "X"
outlet hose. Twist the silver- coloured ring one inch below the
connection point until you feel it lock.

The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the
small switch on the lip. When securing, twist the ring back to its
initial condition, so that the two orange lines meet. Disconnect.
Place the dalkron unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear.
Activate by pressing the blue button.

The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red
release switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be
adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release
button. The opening is self- adjusting. To secure after use, press
the green button, which simultaneously activates the evaporator and
returns the Cin-Eliminator to its storage position.

You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator .
If the red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator
requirements has not been properly implemented. Press the "List Guy"
call button on the right of the evaporator . He will secure all
facilities from his control panel.

To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in
the clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet
immediately below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with you.
On the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will see a
"Shower seal" button. Press to activate. A green light will then be
illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob, select the
desired setting. Now depress the Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe
normally.

The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless
you activate the "Manual off" override switch by flipping it up. When
you are ready to leave, press the blue "Shower seal" release button.
The door will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro
slippers and place them in their container.

If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue
button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A & B. The
knob to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low,
medium or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested.

After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by
switching to the "ON" position the clearly marked red switch. If
during the unsubscribing operation, you wish to change the settings,
place the "manual off" override switch in the "OFF" position. You may
now make the change and repeat the cycle. When the green exit light
goes on, you may log off and have lunch. Please close the door behind
you.

i was trying (again) to get off of the junk mail list that had a message in
my mbox *before* the wu-ftpd message.  i don't know how i did it, but i
ended up sending my remove request to *both* the junk list and the entire
wu-ftpd list.  opps. . .

i appreciate the helpful instructions folks have sent me on unsubscribing
to mail lists (kind of goes along with the nature of the list) but you can
stop them.  i *know* how to behave with real lists.  the problem is with
the automated junk lists that don't behave so civily. . .

I have recently compiled (and done some debugging) on wu-ftpd for IRIX 5.3. 
The only difference I've spotted so far from the build directions has to do
with setproctitle.  As far as I can tell, there's no way to do such a thing
in IRIX 5.3, and when I called SGI for assistance the person I talked to
didn't have a clue about it either.  The default seems to be REUSEARGV which
causes all the date and time stamps to be in the wrong timezone.

Any help with this?

I've noticed that msie tends to break in a couple of cases when interacting with
wu-ftpd...

1) When a file is unreadable
2) When a server is 'full'

In both cases (and maybe others) it returns extended information.  In the
second case some web browsers prompt for a userid and password which has
ends up getting me several pieces of email asking for the password to be
removed.  Is there a way around this?

Chris,
 Below is an excerpt from my notes on how I got Beta 11 build to stop
wiping out timezone environment setting on IRIX 6.2. Hope it can
help,
	Roger Hanke

Once added the -a option to the wuftpd command line got this version to 
run. It did have all times in GMT, so went back and commented out the 
define of SPT_TYPE in the src/config/config.sgi file. Apparently the Beta 
version now uses SPT_TYPE define where the original 2.4 version used 
SETPROCTITLE. The SPT_TYPE was set to SPT_REUSEARGV in config.sgi 
originally. This was supposed to fix the problem in AIX versions though 
comments stated the author had not been able to test it. By just not 
defining the SPT_TYPE the problem did not go away. In src/ftpd.c I found 
that when SPT_TYPE is now undefined that it is defaulted to SPT_REUSEARGV. 
So finally set SPT_TYPE to be SPT_NONE and that took care of the timezone 
problem. Turns out SPT_TYPE is set to SPT_NONE in config.sol already.

The kooky reason is so that wu-ftpd will work as a regular ftpd by default.
Originally, it would get all bent out of shape if the ftpaccess file was not
there. Now, it doesn't.

The action of -a was not changed. The default was to assume the ftpaccess
file was to be ready even if -a was not specified. That is not the same thing.

The easiest is to disable extended error information.  This can be done by
prefixing the user's password with a dash character.  (Instead of typing
password, type -password.)  This prevents wu-ftpd (and any other ftp
server) from sending extended error responses.

Some browsers still ask for a username and password even if the server is
full, and just bail you out.  There's no real way around this as far as I
know.

   i appreciate the helpful instructions folks have sent me on unsubscribing
   to mail lists (kind of goes along with the nature of the list) but you can
   stop them.  i *know* how to behave with real lists.  the problem is with
   the automated junk lists that don't behave so civily. . .

[Note:	I'm cc-ing the whole list as this might be of interest to
	others too]

Bruce,

you might want to take a look at procmail, a mail filter program which
you can use to automatically pre-process your incoming mail and most
important for your purpose to simply bounce incoming mail from
specific addresses which may be whole spam domains. That way it's
their problem to get you off of their list and not your's. Or, instead
of bouncing the message, you can automate an answer telling them to go
away.

Procmail comes with examples for setup and should be available at your
nearest USENET comp.sources.misc archive, or at
FTP.INFORMATIK.RWTH-AACHEN.DE as pub/packages/procmail/procmail.tar.gz

Cheers, JC

This worked fine (I did it before I even sent out the previous letter, in

wondering if there was a setproctitle equiv in IRIX.

This may be good.  I saw some SIGSEGVs today from a guest user logging in
with the wrong username.  Haven't had time to chase it down.

Hi,
 I am new to this list so I hope that this question has not already 
been answered.

I have wu-ftp beta 12 running on a Linux server Kernel 2.0.28. 
I am having problems with ls on linux machines/Sunos??

I have looked at the faq and I have recomplied the gnu fileutils but 
this hasn't fixed the problem. 

Anyone have any suggestions/comments/flames about this.

Any reponses would be helpful.

Please reply ro kwhite@hubcc.ca


Thanks

A SIGSEGV is a signal that a segmentation fault has occured, generally
caused by a program attempting to address memory not allocated to it.

Hello all,

I'm having problems using the install script on IRIX 5.3.  I had no
problems building the binaries but when it comes time to install them I get
a lot of errors.  It seems to be complaining that I'm not the
super-user...but I'm clearly logged on as root.  Here is an output of the
errors.  I hope that it is not too big ;-)

hi,

as a quick workaround, you can do what install does by hand,
that is:
- move each file to its destination directory
- set the permissions and ownership for each of them

then, once wuftpd is working, you can go back and check
what are the permissions settings for ../util/install
and see if this (lack of suid?) explains your problems.

hope this helps,

Miquel

The 'id' command of IRIX is different from the one used to write
the util/install script.
What I did was just commenting out a few lines:
               #if [ "`id -un`" != "root" ]
               #then
               #       Warning "-o: must be superuser to change owner"
               #else
                       chown ${OWNER} ${TARGET}
               #fi
If you do this, the error message disappears :-)

I seem to have a few options avaiable to me to configure ftp via

having to create each users own environment (/home/user/bin/ls

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you want to be able to show the directory contents (i.e. run ls) you
have no choice.  That minimum environment must be set up.  Scripts to set
it up automatically are easy to write, and if you use hard links for the
files involved it takes little extra disk space.

Someone told me about an FTP daemon called "Virtual FTP" This daemon is
supposed to allow you to make differant anonymous FTP home directories for
differant domain names/IP's on a system. Has anyone come accross this
daemon, or know what I am talking about?

This is unneccesary.  Use /usr/bin/X11/bsdinst rather than install on IRIX.
This will cause install to behave like non IRIX installs.

Hello again,

Thanks to all those who helped me with the IRIX 5.3 install fix.  I'm
grateful for the advice of Michel Cabanas, Furio Ercolessi, and Chris
Brown.  

The FTP daemon works now.  However it seems to ignore my /etc/ftpaccess
/etc/ftpgroups files.  I've clearly indicated that I did not want root to
ftp to my server...but I was able to do so anyway.  I also wanted the
server to check for valid e-mail addresses...I don't get this either.

The version I'm using is 2.4.2-beta-12.

Thanks again,

I have set up a chrooted guest account on wuftpd 11 on aix 4. It works fine.

But when i loggin from unix, ls command gives me the directory. And from
win or mac clients, i don't have the directory.

Any ideas,

Thanks,

Yahia Alaoui

Michael Brennen sez:
| 
| 
| This may be good.  I saw some SIGSEGVs today from a guest user logging in
| with the wrong username.  Haven't had time to chase it down.
| 

I found at least one of these...it seems that if a non-anonymous user (real
or guest) passes acl evaluation the server goes on to make sure his passwd
entry has a valid shell (via getusershell() and friends) before allowing
access...  if the user attempting to login has a login shell _not listed in
/etc/shells_ (or one of the getusershell() defaults of course) OR the user is
listed in /etc/ftpusers (explicitly denying access), the daemon sends back a
530-level response to inform the user that access is denied -- herein lies
the problem.  It seems that the 530 error message has two "%s" tokens in the
format and only one string passed to be expanded, resulting in the SEGV.

Okay, here's a patch to BETA-12 for those interested [Stan - Sorry if this is
a duplicate; I haven't seen it mentioned explicitly though]:

I have a problem with Virtual FTP and I think I need advice before I 
go hacking the code.

I have been using "Guest" users.  All users are guests.

I now enable "virtual" ftp and it works.  Except that 
the users who log in with their username and password 
are chrooted to the (virtual) anonymous directory.

It would appear that the check for "virtual" happens before
the check for guest.  Since these guest users will be coming
in the same address as the corresponding virtual address, I
guess I need to make the check that looks up the virtual
stuff in ftpaccess *only* for anonymous users.  I notice that
when this decision is made in ftpd.c, is before the username
has been taken.

I have done it. But i think the problem comes from the command ls.

Following the how to, i made a copy of ls from /etc/bin to ~/bin/ls.

The problem is that i don't know if i need static or dynamic ls and how to
create static or dynamic ls apart copying the file ls.

My server is aix4

Thanks again

Yahia Alaoui

Hmm, curious -- on my BETA-12 under SunOS 5.5 (Solaris 2.5) if I give
a nonexistent username (one not in the system passwd file), I don't see
anything out of the ordinary -- here's a snippet:

	% ftp 127.1
	Connected to 127.1.
	220 FTP.PeachNet.EDU FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-12](1) Tue Feb 11 14:03:23 EST 1997) ready.
	Name (127.1:myusername): nonexist
	331 Password required for nonexist.
	Password: boguspw
	530 Login incorrect.
	Login failed.
	ftp> quit
	221 Goodbye.
	%

Did I misunderstand or is this different behaviour than you're seeing?

I cannot seem to find the definition of NCARGS anywhere in the src.  I'm
trying to compile under Irix 5.3 or 6.2, and have fixed all of the other
SGI-related problems...  However, src/glob.c will not compile because the
constant NCARGS is undefined (and correspondingly, GAVSIZ is undefined).
I've grepped around my entire system trying to find a declaration of
NCARGS in /usr/include, as well as in the wuftpd source, but to no avail.

For those of you who have compiled successfully under Irix, could you drop
me a line and let me know where the heck this constant should come from?
Thanks!

If you look in src/config/config.sgi, you'll find this:

#ifndef NCARGS
#ifdef _POSIX_ARG_MAX
#define NCARGS _POSIX_ARG_MAX
#else
#ifdef ARG_MAX
#define NCARGS ARG_MAX
#endif
#endif
#endif

which will clear up the problem.  (Try './build clean' then './build sgi'
and this should work.)  The only change I would make would be to change the
line:
#define SPT_TYPE SPT_REUSEARGV
to
#define SPT_TYPE SPT_NONE

or timezones don't work in irix 5.3/6.2.

My config.sgi didn't contain those lines -- I was using the 2.4 release.  
I just grabbed a copy of 2.4.2beta to check if that was the version
you're using, and it seems to be...  At least I know how to define it now!

Thanks for the timezone tip...

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the

/usr/include/asm/signal.h: 

#define SIGSEGV         11

This is not an errno value -- this is a signal.  There is an invalid
pointer running around somewhere, but I don't have time to find it now,
hopefully soon.

Yes, this is true.  Personally, I don't like this behavior, and I've
hacked my copy of the code to do the reverse.  It's an easy fix; just
put the anonymous check before the virtual check.

I think guest users chroot should supercede virtual chroot, rather
than the other way around.

OK now I have to ask how is Virtual FTP supposed to work with respect
to real, guest and anonymous class users. The way mine was working
(Beta 12, Solaris 2.5.1) seemed to be different than Bob and James
description.

I could only get my virtual root line recognized when logging in as
anonymous or ftp. When I logged in as a real or guest class id then I 
was put into the proper home dir based on /etc/passwd entry.
So which way is how it is currently written to work?
	Thanx,
	Roger Hanke

I am having trouble getting this version, 2.4.2-beta-12, of wu-ftp

that is where it is supposedly logging.

Hello everyone...

I'm having trouble with setting up guest accounts, and a solution has 
been eluding me for over a week.  I've attached a copy of my ftpaccess 
file and a sample ftp session that shows the error.  

Real, and anonymous users have no problem logging in, but guests can't!?

Any suggestions???

Karl

Currently I have the xferlog rotating once per day.  The first time I did
it, I wasn't sure how the logs were supposed to be changed, so I simply mv'd
the file and touch'd a new one with the correct uid/group/umask.  This
worked except for one thing...  The old xferlog still receives logging
information from old ftpds still running.  This isn't a big deal, but is
there a way around it?  It would make my stat program much simpler.

Chris...

P.S. If you're interested in the stat program itself, visit
http://siggy.iceonline.com/~ftp/ftpstat.html
to see what it produces.  If anyone wants source, I'll be happy to comment
and distribute it.

 I was seeing the same error. But perhaps my config was different
than yours. My root directory for anonymous users was "/ftp".
For various reasons which aren't really relevent here, I wanted
to have home directories for the guest users on a disk different
from where the "/ftp" directory was located. So I created a symbolic
link beneath the "/ftp" directory located on disk3 to a directory
on disk2.
  I kept getting the error you are getting until I changed this and
created the home directory for the guest user as a normal directory
beneath "/ftp". 

  I'm very very new at this (just subscribed to this listserv today) 
but one might could deduce that this "can't set guest privileges"
error occurs when the ftp heirarchy is "violated". If you aren't
doing the symbolic link that I tried, perhaps you don't have the
/bin and /etc directories correctly set up beneath your root for
ftpd.
  
  I used the "guest how-to"at:

<URL:ftp://ftp.fni.com/pub/wu-ftpd/guest-howto>

  Once I had the directories created on the right disk as I described
above, the directions in "guest-howto" worked fine.
  Good luck.

Once and a while I notice that ftpd get's owned by root.

The server is an anonymous FTP server...

ps output looks like this...

     ftp 22534   101  0 10:07:27 ?        0:00 in.ftpd -a

Any ideas?   We're poking into it a little deeper, I just was wondering 
if anyone out there had ideas...

The server runs as root and change is state(seteuid) depending on what
it's doing. So cut at a wrong time with ps you may see own by root

For example in the negotiation state the server run as root:

if you loggin to the server:

ftp -n localhost
# ps will show root
ftp> user ftp
# ps will show root
ftp> pass joe@foo.ee.com
# ps will show own by ftp(the seteuid() was done)

I had a couple of requests, so here's some information about the stat
program which runs the page at:

http://siggy.iceonline.com/~ftp/ftpstat.html

You can download the source from:

ftp://siggy.iceonline.com/pub/other/ftpstat.c

and a sample daily rotation of logs file (it's different than standard
'cause ftpstat builds up some internal stat lists which it saves as logs):

ftp://siggy.iceonline.com/pub/other/ftpdaily


Okay, some info:

The program is public domain.  You can whatever you want with it, including
sell it if you think someone will buy it.  I take no responsibility for
anything done with it.

The program was never intended to cross platforms, so will probably  require
include massaging when it arrives on your system (unless you happen to be
running IRIX).

Typing 'make ftpstat' (without a makefile required) should be all you need
to do to make the binary.  Before you do this, you should massage ftpstat.c
so that your paths are correct (I recommend supplying paths away from
anything important for testing in case something breaks, even though I can't
see what would.)

Both the script and the program assume that ftpd will continue logging
to the old file when the day ends for 24 hours and no more.  I've received
a fix for the script which fixes this with no problem and I'll probably
update the sample shortly.

I run ftpstat hourly using the following line out of my crontab:
31      0,2-23  *       *       *       /disk2/chrisb/tabs/ftpstat
and the following line out of the root crontab:
31      1       *       *       *       /disk2/chrisb/tabs/ftpdaily
As you can see, the logs get rotated at 1:31 am each morning.

If there is enough interest in this thing, I suppose it could be developed
a considerable amount more...  Currently I have no plans in this direction
though.

}/etc/group in each of the guest users' home directories.
}

It sounds like I need to duplicat the ~ftp directory tree for each guest user,
or perhaps I can do this with hard links.  Can I just link the directories
(~ftp/bin, ~ftp/usr/lib, ~ftp/etc. and so forth)?

Hi everybody!

	My problem is, I'm trying to get Wu-Ftp working with S/Key under SunOs
4.1.x .  I've followed the FAQ instructions, that is, included the -DSKEY
and -lskey in my Makefile, commenting out the S/Key line in the config.h
file and adding /src/skey.h and /support/libskey.a .
	It did not compile, showing me the following message :

ftpd.c:342 skey.h: No such file or directory

	Without any modification to config.h, it goes through the compilation
without any problem.  But my test user goes in the same way as before,
using the password provided in my passwd file.  I've used keyinit to add
this user to /etc/skeykeys file, and with a rlogin, I must pass through the
challenge to log in. 

Thanks a lot for your help!

Do ftpconversions entries only get looked at if ftpd can't find the
requested file, or does it check the conversions against all requested
filenames?

I'm trying to figure out a way to set up an FTP server that will run a
perl script to modify certain files before they are sent, while
preventing any access to the original files.  Ideas, anyone?

Thanks,
Dave

Subject: 'dir' command dumps core
X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hi,

I have installed and re-installed version 2.4 on a SPARC10 running
Solaris 2.5.

Whenever a user ftp's into the machine as anonymous, the 'ls' command
works fine; however, the 'dir' command _does not_ return a long listing
of files - it returns nothing, and dumps a core file.

I have read the part in the docs about place a statically linked version
of 'ls' in /ftp/bin directory, as the 'chroot' that takes place when
coming in as anonymous causes any dynamically linked executables to
loose their links.

Ok, I downloaded 'fileutils-3.16' from the GNU site, since it contains
source for 'ls'.  However, I seem unable to compile it statically.
I am using gcc 2.7.2.

Any suggestions, help, new approaches would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
-bd

Did you mean /src/skey.h or ./src/skey.h?  There is a *huge* difference. 

Try putting the skey.h file in ./support.

To whom it may concern:
        I am in a commercial enterprise (company). 
I was about to install wu-ftpd-2.4 as our default
anonymous ftp service. I did notice that it had a build
date a few years old and wondered about any new versions
with bug fixes within them.
        Persuant to that thought, I noticed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12
in the academic upgrades. I notice by the NOTES and README that
a number of fixes have gone into it. Is this indeed an upgrade
and in a commercial atmosphere which version would you suggest
I install. 

    
Thank you ahead of time for opinions given.

David,
Why not create hard links (using the target file names) to the perl script,
which then does the mod and returns the target file (from some unseen
directory).
Of course the problem will be that all targets will hame same owner,
permissions and file size, date etc attributes, so knowlegable users will
become sus and think either the files are wrong or start looking around.

Regards Geofft

That's a clever approach!  But wouldn't the ftpd send them the script
rather than executing it?

first:
#include "disclaimer.h"
I didn't test this.

You could add a rule in ftpconversions for certain
extension ex: .fl

 :   : :.fl:/bin/program %s:.....

if you have:
/home/ftp/pub/file <----- an empty/dummy file
/home/ftp/pub/.hidden/real.file <---- the real file :-)

when the client issued

ftp>get file.fl

the conversion mechanism should be trigger
and the client should receive the stdout of program

One trouble with this is that if a user lists the pub directory (at least
with the dir command) they may see the ".hidden" directory, and go in there
and pull the real file directly, skipping the conversion.  But you can
partially get round this by making the directory searchable but not readable
(d--x--x--x, or drwx--x--x).  Then they will at least have to be clever
enough to guess that there is a "real.file" inside (ie. know what name to
use).

Another problem is that some users will list pub, see the empty file and
try to get that instead of file.fl - ending up with an empty file.  If you
have users who don't fully read the instructions you send them, and just cd
to the directory and pull what they see there, you're likely to end up having
to deal with a number of complaints about empty files.  The same is true if
your users tend to browse around the system and pull any files they see
with interesting names...

But if you can live with this, then I think Alain's suggestion will work
(bon idee !) - but his disclaimer also applies to me  :-).

Cheers, Bob

Hi Everybody,

I installed wu_ftp on a Solaris 2.5 platform. and Everything is working
fine except the 'ls' command (it displays part of the filenames and some
weird data) and what is really confusing me is that 'ls -l' is working fine!!

When I removed the 'ls' file from ~ftp/bin/ directory the 'ls -l' stopped
working but the 'ls' kept on giving the weird data.

Why did the 'ls' kept on displaying the weird data why did not it stop
displaying anything as the 'ls -l'?
PS: 
This case is applicable on real and anonymous users.

Thanks in Advance for your help.

- Maged

I was running wu-ftpd 2.4 before I upgrade to wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12.
Now, I found that my guest group user does not get the 
chroot() when the access the ftp server. Can someone help?
It was working fine before I upgrade it. I'm running
on Solaris 2.5.1 on Sun Ultra 1 machine. When I do a 
ckconfig, I get exactly same output as my old version of
ckconfig. By the way, I use the version 2.4's src/pathnames.h
to compile wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12. Could this be the problem?
Would appreciate any suggestion. Thanks.

regards,
Jasmine

Check and see if the -a is on the wu.ftpd command line in inetd.conf.

First make sure that you are calling wuftpd with the -a option from inetd 
(if that is how you run). The default behavior changed and now the -a 
option is required to use the ftpaccess file.

Note, however, that when I made the same upgrade as you, my chroot() 
guest user also quit working. I have had to remove the upgrade and return 
to 2.4.

Dear Gregory,
     Thanks for your reply. Yes, I miss out the -a option for
inetd. Once I add the -a, it just work fine. By the way,
did you restart your inetd after you make the changes?
Well, you need to "kill -l" for inetd for the changes to
take effact. Well, for my case, I just reboot my server.

     Also, is your ftpaccess in the correct place? do a
ckconfig to check if it reads the correct file. Good luck.


regards,
Jasmine

Perhaps it's this (from an oldish version of the Solaris FAQ):

6.19) Why doesn't readdir work?  It chops the first two characters of
    all filenames.
 
    You're probably linking with libucb and didn't read question
    6.18.  (Readdir in libucb.so wants you to include sys/dir.h,
    but many SunOS 4.1.x programs included <dirent.h>, consequently,
    you're mixing native <dirent.h> struct dirent with libucb
    readdir().  The symptom of this mixup is that the first two
    characters of each filename are missing.  Make sure you use the
    native compiler (default /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc, which may not be in
    your PATH), and not /usr/ucb/cc.

(And before anyone asks, here's 6.18:

6.18) Can I use the source compatibility package to postpone porting?
 
    Not really.  The Source code compatibility package is
    compatible with BSD 4.2, not SunOS 4.1.x.  The consensus
    is that the library is broken beyond usability.
    If you use libucb to pick up some functions you need, it
    is often best to specify it *after* all other libraries and
    after libc with:
 
            -lc -L/usr/ucblib -R/usr/ucblib -lucb
 
    or preferably:
 
            -lc /usr/ucblib/libucb.a
)

"ls" is built-in.  "ls -l" aka "dir" runs bin/ls.

To answer the easier question on why the difference between ls 
and ls -l behavior. ls functionality is built in to wuftpd. only when you
pass additional arguments does it actually end up invoking /bin/ls.

X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN


	hello,

	 I have a Digital UNIX V4.0A system with C2 enabled.  Currently
	I am running wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-12](1), but have also had
	wu-2.4(6) running.

	 All is fine except if a real user has a password over nine 
	characters in length.   Regular telnet and rlogin sessions login
	fine, but not ftp.    I returned the inetd.conf to the ftpd which
	came with the OS, and that worked as expected with the long 
	password.  So, I think I've limited my search to some  component
	of wu-ftpd.  

	 Has anyone experienced this?  Is there a way to permit longer 
	passwords?


	thank you,
	steve beikman

Having a hidden directory isn't really an issue.  I can have the perl
script get its source file from somwhere completely outside of the FTP
directory tree.  However, the file extension is a problem.  I expect
many of our visitors will be using GUI-based FTP clients that only allow
point-and-click interaction, so they won't be able to modify the
filename.  I was hoping that something like this would do the trick:

 :.fl: :.fl:/bin/program %s:...
	or
 : : : :/bin/program %s...

but I suspect that ftpd won't run a conversion if the requested filename
exists.  

What if I set the source file to -r--------?  Would that be enough to
trigger the conversion?  ('fraid I don't have a machine to test on at
the moment.)

Any other suggestions are always welcome...

Dave

 Michael and Charles so far have both caught my blunder.
My aplogies to the list for using (misusing) a MS Exchange mail client.
Gees it came with the OS so I figured I would use it ;-)
Somehow my response had the Windows messaging rich text format
turned on and it stores this extra info in the winmail.dat file, which no
other non MS mail clients can interpret. All of my address lists have
this turned off, and normally responses also do.

Hi,
 
I have posted this question earlier, but, got no answer from 
anybody, so, I am posting it again.

I am experiencing a wierd problem on my Solaris 2.5 machine using 
wu-ftpd 2.4. Periodically, I am getting the following error messages
on my console and /var/adm/messages:
 
Feb 25 07:54:27 xxxx ftpd[17762]: setsockopt (SO_OOBINLINE): Broken pipe
Feb 25 07:54:27 xxxx ftpd[17762]: fcntl F_SETOWN: Broken pipe

Feb 25 08:02:44 xxxx last message repeated 7 times
Feb 25 08:03:47 xxxx inetd[130]: accept: Protocol error
 
where xxxx is the hostname.
 
I have already searched in the wu-ftpd mailing list archives but, I could 
not find an answer. If someone has any suggestions or solutions 
please let me know. your response is appreciated.
 
Thanks in advance.

On Solaris and IRIX, versions of wuftpd prior to the timeout fix/hack will
not disconnect until the client tells them to.  The only solution right now
is to use a beta (beta 12 is what I use on IRIX and it works fine...  when I
ran 2.4(6) I would regularly get 3 to 400 connections, less than 50 of them
real active connections.)

Try the beta 12 release.  Should help.

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the
directory contents, but get the file anyway.  It's there.

Sounds like someone has a broken client.  I'm assuming that people are
getting on to your site succesfully?  If this is the case, these messages
are probably generated by a client which is disconnecting without saying the
friendly 'quit' which tells ftpd to close the socket before the client does.

Hello,

I'm running wu-ftp2.4 and need to know how to prevent
real users from ftping in.

I removed 'real' from the class option but it appears
that real users can still ftp in.

Is there something else I need to set?

ftpaccess file:
# cat ftpaccess
class   all   guest,anonymous  *

limit   all   10   Any              /etc/msgs/msg.dead

readme  README*    login
readme  README*    cwd=*

message /welcome.msg            login
message .message                cwd=*

compress        yes             local remote
tar             yes             local remote

log commands real
log transfers anonymous,real inbound,outbound

shutdown /etc/shutmsg

email user@hostname

Thanks in advance.

# 
# On Solaris and IRIX, versions of wuftpd prior to the timeout fix/hack will
# not disconnect until the client tells them to.  The only solution right now
# is to use a beta (beta 12 is what I use on IRIX and it works fine...  when I
# ran 2.4(6) I would regularly get 3 to 400 connections, less than 50 of them
# real active connections.)

I'll second that. I run it on Solaris 2.5.1 and have no more problems
with hanging sessions.  Works great. (Thanks Stan.)

I am setting up the wu-ftpd (2.4) running on a sun solaris 2.5.1.  Access is
limited to specific users both from inside our domain as well as from 
outside.  THe inside users can only ftp through our firewall.  I want to
set it up so that each outsdie user is chrooted into their directory.  If
I make the chroot directory the /ftp path, everything works fine, but when
I make the chroot directory the full path for the each users directory
I can not get my data port set up.  I always see the following messages:

ftp> dir
425 Can't open passive connection: No such file or directory.
200 PORT command successful.
425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.

Can anyone help?  What am I doing wrong and what can I do to resolve this
problem.  THanks in advance.

Howdy folks,
I have two questions about the hanging processes. I am currently
running the 2.4 version and have made modifications. Is there a fix
for the hanging procs that I can incorporate into 2.4 without going
to 2.4 B12? Second, earlier I had seen questions about writing a
simple script to kill of hanging procs. Is that a viable solution?

thanks for any help

Doug

Here's how i did something like that, but for anon instead of real..



class   local   real,guest 127.0.0.1
class   remote  real,guest *
class   anonrmt anonymous  *

limit   local   20  Any                 /etc/msgs/msg.toomany
limit   remote  100 SaSu|Any1800-0600   /etc/msgs/msg.toomany
limit   remote  60  Any                 /etc/msgs/msg.toomany
limit   anonrmt 0   Any                 /etc/msgs/msg.toomany

For your system I'd suggest adding the following lines:

class	other	real	*

limit	other	0	Any	/etc/msgs/msg.dead

That should do the trick for you.

We're having a similiar problem running beta12 on Solaris 2.5.1. Typically
there are 50-200 ftpd processes that are hung trying to write something.

For instace, we've got process 22512. It's been hanging around since 23:41
yesterday. Trussing the processes reveals the following:

write(12, " aD2 ( w  809490 M $E9 h".., 16384) (sleeping...)

Intuitively speaking, it seems that processes aren't dying properly when
their clients disappear. Killing these processes with SIGPIPE works fine
though. Clues would be great.

Sound like you need to run the script for setting up solaris anonymous
FTP.  It creates abunch of device files for you in your ftp directory.

It may be in the Solaris 2.x FAQ, but here it is.  I found it on a man
of ftpd on a Solaris 2.5 system, but didn't find it on my solaris 2.5.1
system...


Here is it..

	Hello.

	I'm trying to setup a virtual ftp site at my machine, but alas, without
success.
	I'm using wu-ftpd release 2.4.2-beta-12 and my OS is FreeBSD release
2.0.5. In my ftpaccess file I have the following directive: virtual
<ip-addr> root <path>, where <path> exists and <ip-addr> is an alias IP
address for my machine.
	What happens is that when I ftp to that <ip-addr> I end up in my anonymous
ftp directory and not in <path>. I'd be grateful if anyone out there could
help me.
	Thanks.
												Luis

It seams like Solaris 2.5.1 is the least straight forward platform to
install wu-ftpd on, at least judging from all the posts to this mailing
list...  sound like seperate or additional faq could be setup just for
us!

Anyone,  I am still having problems.  I cannot get any banners or
messages to work, guestgroup and guest classes to chroot, and when I do
a ftpwho, ftpcount, or ftpshut, they give me inaccurate information, or
do nothing at all.

I know about /etc/shells, guestgroup commands, and some other things I
found out the hard way.  I am wondering if it could be the way it was
compiled... 

Can anyone send me thier mods to the make files, conf.h, or whatever
else they did to get these features to work on Solaris 2.5.1?  I have
beta-11 and beta-12, both of which I got to compile.  I was never able
to compile the vanilla 2.4 on Solaris 2.5.1.

I have access to gnu and the Solaris C compiler which you have to
purchase....

Please, any help is appreciated greatly!

Hello Chris,

Thanks for your response.

A couple more question:

1)  There are some real users that need ftp access.
    How do I code the ftpaccess so that a small group
    of users can have access to ftp?


2)  Should I just disallow real user access altogether 
    and force them to use special ftp accounts (ftp1, ftp2, etc...) 
    modeled after the anonymous ftp setup?



Thanks,

Les

This is the location for the latest wu-ftpd.  You can't see the
directory contents, but get the file anyway.  It's there.

If you've installed ftpd properly, try 'man 5 ftphosts' and it should
explain how to restrict certain users and not others.

Example ftphosts file:
allow  anonymous       *
allow  chrisb          *.iceonline.com 127.0.0.1
deny   *               *

That depends.  Normally real users can access anything anywhere on the your
file system as if it was them.  If this isn't okay then you need to use
guest access as you suggest.  Any comments, anyone else?  I've never used
wuftpd's guest features.

How many users on your system and how many users need to be allowed ftp
access?
How do new users get added (via script or other means)?

I don't know if this is the best way or not, but it is an option. 

You could always list the real users who are not allowed ftp access in
/etc/ftpusers (or whatever your _PATH_FTPUSERS is set to when you
compiled). Those users will not be allowed to log in via ftp.

Mike,
 For Solaris 2.5.1 using GCC 2.7.0 below are my notes on modifications
I made to compile Beta 12 cleanly.
	Roger Hanke

Made the same changes to the makefiles and configuration files as did with 
Beta 11. Modified the src/makefiles/Makefile.sol and 
support/makefiles/Makefile.sol makefiles to use gcc instead of cc in the CC 
definition lines. Commented out the USE_ETC, USE_TMP, and USE_VAR 
definitions in src/config/config.sol. Undefining these definitions allows 
all files and executables to be stored in default locations under 
/usr/local directories. Then added -DVIRTUAL to the CFLAGS line in both 
makefiles above to enable virtual FTP server operation. Captured the stdout 
and stderr from the build sol line as build.sol. There were no warnings or 
errors produced.

It seams like Solaris 2.5.1 is the least straight forward platform to
install wu-ftpd on, at least judging from all the posts to this mailing
list...  sound like seperate or additional faq could be setup just for
us!

Anyone,  I am still having problems.  I cannot get any banners or
messages to work, guestgroup and guest classes to chroot, and when I do
a ftpwho, ftpcount, or ftpshut, they give me inaccurate information, or
do nothing at all.

I know about /etc/shells, guestgroup commands, and some other things I
found out the hard way.  I am wondering if it could be the way it was
compiled...

Can anyone send me thier mods to the make files, conf.h, or whatever
else they did to get these features to work on Solaris 2.5.1?  I have
beta-11 and beta-12, both of which I got to compile.  I was never able
to compile the vanilla 2.4 on Solaris 2.5.1.

I have access to gnu and the Solaris C compiler which you have to
purchase....

Please, any help is appreciated greatly!

	I don't think that this is the problem. I saw the same problem
on wu-ftpd, and whether you could chroot or not depended entirely on
the length of the pathname before the chroot'ed directory.
	Interestingly enough, the problem did not occur under
solaris x86 2.5.1

	Does there need to be a /dev directory under the chroot'ed home
directory in the sparc solaris version?

	Stephen

Is there a way I can set up an ftp account that will default to binary 
mode transfer?

Thanks
