The man page for inetd seemed to imply that it needed the "max" suffix. It put it in quotes.

I'm at it again... ;-) Beware. For quite a while I have had a lot of wu-ftpd related "stuff" around that needed a bit of organizing. There has also been more people starting to create documents and tools thus contributing to the wu-ftpd environment. I thought it might be nice to provide a "resource center" about wu-ftpd and its development. This is not an FAQ. The center is located at http://www.landfield/wu-ftpd/ This is NOT a replacement for anyones efforts. This is to compliment those efforts (at least that's what I'm trying to do). I am trying to make it easy to get to all the different wu-ftpd related documents and tools as well as documents and tools that support FTP archive environments. Comments are welcome (preferably offlist but that's your call). If you have additions to make to any page, please let me know.

I have just compiled and installed wu-ftpd, but I have a few problems. These may seem simple to the rest of you so a FAQ may be more of what I need. However, here at my questions/ problems. Any help is greatly appreciated. 1.) Where do I place the welcome.msg file which is the message banner. I've tried in ~ftp as well as ~ftp/etc. Do I even have the right filename? 2.) ls works, but 'ls -l' does not. Any ideas here? Also, my system does not have 'dir' so I just created a script called 'dir' and placed it in ~ftp/bin. The script is simple #!/bin/sh ls -l However, it doesn't work. I think this is related to the 'ls -l' problem I have. 3.) At the moment, only 'ftp' and 'anonymous' can log in. Any other user on the system cannot. What am I doing wrong here? Again, any help would be appreciated, Thanks, Vu From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Thu May 1 17:52:18 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id RAA25011; Thu, 1 May 1997 17:45:02 -0500 (CDT) Received: from bofh.co.telenet.pt (oberon.co.telenet.pt [193.219.97.18]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id RAA28602 for ; Thu, 1 May 1997 17:41:51 -0500 (CDT) Received: from oberon.co.telenet.pt ([193.219.97.18]) by bofh.co.telenet.pt (Netscape Mail Server v1.1) with SMTP id AAA313 for ; Thu, 1 May 1997 23:48:21 +0100 Message-Id: <33881d74.613397909@mail.co.telenet.pt> Date: Thu, 01 May 1997 22:48:21 GMT Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: melo@co.telenet.pt (Pedro Melo) To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: Re: New wu-ftpd resource In-Reply-To: <199705011718.MAA04490@landfield.com> References: <199705011718.MAA04490@landfield.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Forte Agent 1.0/32.390 X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN On Thu, 1 May 1997 12:18:10 -0500 (CDT), Kent Landfield wrote: >Ok.

Since the browser clients have become quite popular, I am confused why this is not regarded as a very serious problem by more people? Perhaps some of these servers are getting these fcntl error messages and the admins just havent noticed yet (users didnt complain possibly)? It sounds as if after the lock attempt fails the server sleeps and retries. Perhaps in most cases this succeeds so that users just see a slight delay and therefore dont report a problem? Alain has your patch to have WUFTPD stop after 300 iterations been sent to Stan? It sounds like there is no reason to ever let it loop beyond some number. As usual would be nice to have this number tuneable somehow.

If you haven't already put in too much user directories, one solution would be to place one user directory inside the existing user directory. On my outside machine, my setup is, for example user ostoll: /usr/people/ostoll/dev /usr/people/ostoll/lib /usr/people/ostoll/bin /usr/people/ostoll/etc /usr/people/ostoll/ostoll Where etc contains a password file for exactly that user/group, and root, nothing else. The passwd entry is /usr/people/ostoll/./ostoll, which prevents the user from performing a cd out of their directory (they're actually chrooted).

Yes. The method I employed was file permissions. e.g: for user1, user2, user3...have the following home directories in ./etc/passwd:- /export/chrootdir/./user1 /export/chrootdir/./user2 /export/chrootdir/./user3 Then make /export/chrootdir none readable by the users, it will still need to be searchable (chmod 711 /export/chrootdir). Now you only have one chroot structure to maintain, users have a home directopry of /user1 etc, can cd up one level but cannot see any directories when there. Also they are prevented from entering other users home directories by permission on each home directory. hope this helps. dave --------------2EDBCC9FA454CD538F179449 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="vcard.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for David Herring Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="vcard.vcf" begin:vcard fn:David Herring n:Herring;David org:Micromuse Inc. adr:;;90 Putney Bridge Road;Putney;London;SW18 1DA; email;internet:david.herring@micromuse.co.uk tel;work:0181 875 9500 tel;fax:0181 875 9995 x-mozilla-cpt:;0 x-mozilla-html:FALSE end:vcard --------------2EDBCC9FA454CD538F179449 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="vcard.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for David Herring Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="vcard.vcf" begin:vcard fn:David Herring n:Herring;David org:Micromuse Inc. adr:;;90 Putney Bridge Road;Putney;London;SW18 1DA; email;internet:david.herring@micromuse.co.uk tel;work:0181 875 9500 tel;fax:0181 875 9995 x-mozilla-cpt:;0 x-mozilla-html:FALSE end:vcard --------------2EDBCC9FA454CD538F179449-- From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Fri May 2 11:43:19 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id LAA02807; Fri, 2 May 1997 11:37:36 -0500 (CDT) Received: from Edify.COM (host216-28.edify.com [204.118.216.28]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA00325 for ; Fri, 2 May 1997 11:35:18 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from vu@localhost) by Edify.COM (8.8.5/8.8.5) id JAA04185; Fri, 2 May 1997 09:34:30 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199705021634.JAA04185@Edify.COM> Date: Fri, 2 May 1997 09:34:30 -0700 (PDT) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: "Vu Q.

All it does is simply check to see if the needed files are where they were specified in pathnames.h. Other than that, you had to look at the man pages, examples and the source code to try and figure out what was the proper syntax. After complaining about checking changed wu-ftpd configurations under my breath for years (every time I had to) I decided to do something about it. I have started developing a package that will do what I need. What I'd like to do is see if I can talk you into participating. This is not a small effort. (Now I can see why it has not been seriously attempted before...) I'd like this to be a community project. Otherwise, I've got a lot more work in front of me and you get it the way I want it. ;) It will be completed either way. I have put up a web page that describes what I have so far. http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/ftpck/ftpck.html It describes the tests it currently performs, mostly syntax at this point, how to get the software, etc. ftpck is intended to check all files and fields in all the wu-ftpd system files to assure proper syntax. It checks to assure all files referenced in the various wu-ftpd system files exist. It checks modes on system files and will check the modes on the root ftpd data directories (~ftp, ~ftp/etc, ..) and files (~ftp/etc/passwd), etc. as well. I'm even planning on putting in the "-a" check. ;-) That should cut down on mailing list traffic... ;) This is a first shot and is far from clean. A snapshot of the development will be updated daily until it is complete. Please help me complete this. It has already pointed out errors in my configuration here and I'm sure it will help you as well. I need suggestions about what checks make sense and should be added. This code is going to be rewritten in a cleaner fashion once all the issues are identified and a rapid prototype created. This is not a final version. It is however, useful to you to test your configuration out and as a think piece to finally create a useful and complete wu-ftpd configuration checker. -- Kent Landfield Phone: 1-817-545-2502 The Landfield Group FAX: 1-817-545-7650 Email: kent@landfield.com http://www.landfield.com/ Please send comp.sources.misc related mail to kent@uunet.uu.net.

So what does you say? Is this good and should someone talk to (for instance) the ssh team to implement some of those types into wu-ftpd, or should I forget all about this? /Emil From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sat May 3 12:02:10 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id LAA23295; Sat, 3 May 1997 11:59:44 -0500 (CDT) Received: from Edify.COM (host216-28.edify.com [204.118.216.28]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA20582 for ; Sat, 3 May 1997 11:55:28 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from vu@localhost) by Edify.COM (8.8.5/8.8.5) id JAA02124; Sat, 3 May 1997 09:54:38 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <199705031654.JAA02124@Edify.COM> Date: Sat, 3 May 1997 09:54:38 -0700 (PDT) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: "Vu Q.

The user's quota is read from the file system where the user's home directory resides. It was tested both on AIX 3.2.5 and AIX 4.1.4. I've also added hooks for the following operation systems: Irix, SunOS, Digital Unix and BSD/OS. If you want to play with it on your system, check your system manuals for the system call quotactl(2) and it's relevant includes files. Here are the magic cookies: %B absolute limit on disk blks alloc. %b preferred limit on disk blks. %Q current block count. %I maximum # allocated inodes + 1. %i preferred inode limit. %q current # allocated inodes. %H time limit for excessive disk use. %h time limit for excessive files. i.e. to get the following output: 230-Disk quotas for user eilon 230- Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace 230- /home 10300 10000 11000 6.2 days 20 0 0 230- Create the following message: Disk quotas for user %U Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace /home %Q %b %B %H %q %i %I %h The patch can be found at ftp://ftp.tau.ac.il/pub/users/eilon/wu-ftpd/ -- Eilon Gishri, Tel-Aviv University Computation Center Home 03-5078671 /* on a matter of national security */ E-mail: eilon@aristo.tau.ac.il From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Mon May 5 22:15:13 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id WAA09115; Mon, 5 May 1997 22:14:02 -0500 (CDT) Received: from ied.edu.hk (ws_32_1.ied.edu.hk [202.45.32.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id WAA14831 for ; Mon, 5 May 1997 22:09:48 -0500 (CDT) Received: from hqsmtpgw.ied.edu.hk (ws_32_31.ied.edu.hk) by ied.edu.hk (5.x/SMI-SVR4) id AA06192; Tue, 6 May 1997 11:10:01 +0800 Received: by hqsmtpgw.ied.edu.hk with Microsoft Mail id <336EA1E6@hqsmtpgw.ied.edu.hk>; Tue, 06 May 97 11:13:42 HKT Message-Id: <336EA1E6@hqsmtpgw.ied.edu.hk> Date: Tue, 06 May 97 11:12:00 HKT Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Chan Yick Wai To: wu-ftpd Subject: FW: banner X-Mailer: Microsoft Mail V3.0 X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN You may follow these steps, 1) check which ftpaccess your ftpd using, strings ftpd | grep ftpaccess 2) check where is your banner file location from this ftpaccess 3) check if your banner is there correctly. 4) check /etc/inetd.conf if you've start your ftpd with -a options.

(I've reviewed the archives back to October, '96 and haven't found anything similar.) We implemented the installp version of wu-ftpd 2.4 (from the Bull ftp site). It works fine from a 'secure ftp' standpoint, but we have encountered the following problem. When wu-ftpd is active, PERL scripts invoked by an AIX shell script cannot copy or move files from a directory owned by the same owner as the script, to a directory owned by a member of the wu-ftpd guestgroup. When the standard AIX ftpd is active, instead of wu-ftpd, the scripts work just fine. I would not have expected the ftp daemon to affect the performance of processes not involved with ftp, but we have tested this several times, where the only thing we change is the active ftpd (i.e., edit /etc/inetd.conf to comment out one ftp line and uncomment the other, run refresh -s inetd). The results are consistent. Does anyone know how to fix this, or have any ideas about fixing it?

Since the beginning, the only wu-ftpd configuration checker was "ckconfig". All it did was simply check to see if the needed files were where they were specified in pathnames.h. Other than that, you had to look at the man pages, examples and the source code to try and figure out what was the proper syntax. ftpck is intended to check all files and fields in all the files to assure proper syntax. It checks to assure that all files referenced in the various wu-ftpd system files exist. It checks modes on files as well as modes on ftp directories specified. This is a second shot and is _much_ cleaner and more complete than the first. Please help me complete this. It has already pointed out errors in my configuration here and I'm sure it will help you as well. I need suggestions about what checks make sense and should be added. Please help me create a useful and accurate wu-ftpd configuration checker. Usage: ====== usage: ftpck [ -cFghprstuvx ] [-f accessfile] With no otions, all file are checked. Using 'check file options' below, you can only check one file per execution.

Current development status ========================== May 7, 1997: This has been cleaned up greatly with all ftpaccess records now being checked. There are just a couple of accessfile checks that still need to be added. The plan is to: - assure complete ftpaccess file checking is done, - expand the verification checking for each of the other wu-ftpd config files, - write a a utility that checks the permissions, modes, ownership, number of links, etc. of the individual ftp data directories. I could use some help. Ideas are what I need most. What does it test ? =================== This list will be expanding. Currently, the following things are checked. These are only what I have had time to get in at present. ftpaccess: 1. The existence of the specified ftpaccess file is verified. 2. Modes on each of the specified ftpaccess files are checked to assure they are 0600. In addition, each record in the file is verified.

Also, as the distribution is configured, it needs to be unpacked under the wu-ftpd src/ directory. The tar/shar files will create a subdirectory name ftpck.1.4. You will need to edit the Makefile in the ftpck.1.4 directory and make sure things are right for your installation. It is setup to use your existing pathnames.h and config.h files. Type make and build it. Test it from that directory. When you are satisfied it does the right things, type make install and the go verify your config. Note: rdservers.c is not used unless you are one of the beta sites for my new way of doing virtual hosting. If so, make sure you put -DVIRTUAL_SERVER in the CFLAGS. If you are using the current virtual support then you do not need to do anything. -- Kent Landfield Phone: 1-817-545-2502 The Landfield Group FAX: 1-817-545-7650 Email: kent@landfield.com http://www.landfield.com/ Please send comp.sources.misc related mail to kent@uunet.uu.net.

It found some minor problems on my setup, too. We don't use virtual servers here at all and I had to make a small mod to ftpck.c to get it to compile, otherwise the build died with a _PATH_FTPSERVERS not defined error:- % diff -e ftpck.c.org ftpck.c 2482a #endif . 2481a #ifdef VIRTUAL_SERVER . I think this should be distributed along with the wu-ftpd package and built into the Makefile so that it is possible to run it with "make test". It would be great if it could also check the ownership/permissions of ~ftp/dev ~ftp/usr ~ftp/etc and anything inside them. Also if it could recursively check ~ftp for anything which could be written to or altered by an anonymous user (unless it is defined in an uploads directive in ftpaccess). I have found in the past that, although these things are usually set up carefully at the outset, they have a habit of slipping as time goes by. Since checking the whole of ~ftp might be a long job, this would be better made a non-default option. I see that the above are on your todo list. An extra wish item from me would be a -n switch which didn't check anything at all, but simply listed everything (item by item, not just file by file) that would have been checked without the switch being specified. This would make the output much more reassuring once everything complained about had been fixed. John Attwood.

There is nothing on the logfiles Jamie: Check the ftpd invocation in /etc/inetd.conf. Make sure the line reads as follows: ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/bin/ftpd -a -l Without the "-a" switch, the ftpaccess file is *not* read (and hence, neither are your virtual definitions).... At least, that's one possibility. :) Good luck!

I am at a point > where ls works but ls -l does not. This may not be helpful -- it's just an observation that possibly could be relevant. In those clients I have used (Unix-based ones), the client command 'ls' translates to the FTP command NLST. 'ls -l' almost always translates to 'NLST -l' which is a request for a list of files matching '-l'. No other interpretation is allowed by RFC959. From that point of view, 'ls -l' shouldn't work, unless you happen to have a file or directory named '-l' in your current directory. WU FTP, however, seems to have extended the FTP protocol to allow 'NLST -' as a way of passing option on to 'ls'. (There's an exev at bottom, so there seems to be no way of doing any other mischief than the 'ls' program allows.) The command that should be used is the one that translates to 'LIST', which produces a file listing intended for human eyes. I suspect a safe FTP would not call any external programs for either of these functions. It is admittedly rather convenient to do so, though. --- It sounds rather as if your 'ls -l' somehow brings extra functionality, for instance by dynamic linking. If you have an 'ldd' command, or anything that shows what dynamic libraries are required by the ls executable, that should probably help you get the right libraries The shell command 'chroot' is sometimes useful for debugging these things: % chroot ~ftp /bin/ls -l Anders Thulin Anders.X.Thulin@telia.se 013-23 55 32 Telia Engineering AB, Teknikringen 6, S-583 30 Linkoping, Sweden From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Fri May 9 08:00:17 1997 Received: from relay3.UU.NET by relay3.UU.NET with ESMTP (peer crosschecked as: root@localhost) id QQcotn16861; Fri, 9 May 1997 04:59:35 -0400 (EDT) Received: from wugate.wustl.edu by relay3.UU.NET with ESMTP (peer crosschecked as: wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) id QQcotn16854; Fri, 9 May 1997 04:59:34 -0400 (EDT) Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id DAA22953; Fri, 9 May 1997 03:56:42 -0500 (CDT) Received: from gateley.hnet.es (gateley.hnet.es [194.177.1.137]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id DAA22752 for ; Fri, 9 May 1997 03:49:15 -0500 (CDT) Received: from closetome.hnet.es (closetome.hnet.es [194.177.1.146]) by gateley.hnet.es (8.6.8.1/SCA-6.6) with SMTP id JAA05180 for ; Fri, 9 May 1997 09:50:27 GMT Message-Id: <3372E586.77EB@gateley.hnet.es> Date: Fri, 09 May 1997 10:51:18 +0200 Reply-To: alex@gateley.hnet.es Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Alex Marquez To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: guest users ls don't show files MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.01Gold [es] (Win95; I) X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN Hi all: My problem is that when a user of a guestgroup makes a ls, the files of user home directory don't are showed.

If you need >to you could setup real accounts that you could not login with via telnet. >Then the ftp would work as you want. (I think.) If so, you can do that. Indeed. Let me lead you all down the great scary garden path that I call my thoughts =) Scenario: I have 2 clients that both decide to host a virtual server on my system, called a.com and b.com, and I am isp.com. a.com decides they want to put in a vftp server, to allow people to ftp to ftp.a.com and login as anon, and have a different root to if they ftp'ed to ftp.isp.com. Easy enough, download the academ patches, and setup a virtual x.x.x.x line in ftpaccess. b.com are a web hosting service, on-selling space on their current v.server to other users. They want to have the ability to sell http://www.b.com/some_user and have that some_user ftp to ftp.b.com and log in as the real user some_user in order to upload their pages. Now, isp.com already has an account called some_user, so the b.com user cant login to ftp.b.com as some_user, as that would confilct with the isp.com account. What I have done is patched wu-ftpd so that it does a lookup on the sin_addr and then refrences a hash table of FAKENAME = REALNAME combinations. THen, from that point on, the ftpd uses FAKENAME in all references, yet at system level, the permissions are that of REALNAME. This means that a user can login to ftp.b.com as some_user and another user can login to ftp.isp.com as some_user, yet they are DIFFERENT users. If you have ever looked at the Qualcom Popper 2.2 Virtual patches, my wu patches work essentially the same. This means that you can have the same user name used for FTP/POP/WWW across several virtual domains, each one being a DIFFERENT user. Still dont get me? Im confused now... Told you it was a scary path =) does anyone get what I mean? =) Regards Adrian > ># I downloaded the wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13 and noticed it had been patched for ># virtual Anon users, but not 'real' users.

Lets define VIRTUAL to be: restrict someone access to part of the file system. Or the ability to show only a certain "view" of the file system. In many cases that's what I(we) meant by saying virtual(virtual ftp) In HTTP, it's more obvious, When access a certain IP(HTTP/0.9) or hostname(HTTP/1.0 and 1.1) the server will get the files inside a certain DocumentROOT as define by the config file. There is no real use in having ftpd doing virtual hosting for real users. Real users do not go through chroot(). So all the file system is "visible". In most cases, when we say Virtual for real users, we meant guest accounts, that can be restricted (chroot()) to a certain area of the file system, so only certain files can be view. For "Real Virtual Hosting" i.e virtual for rlogin/telnet/ftp etc.. then we're talking about Virtual Machine. You'll have a context switch depending on how you loggin. Mr Landfield idea about "Virtual Inetd" is probably a step in this direction. How hard could it be to do ? The real challenge is more to make old stubburn sysadmin(including me :-) accept a new syntax and yet a new way of thinking. > > I'm still confused.

Pretty much thats it =) I dont actually chroot, since the 'Fakename -> Realname' mapping allows wu_ftpd to get HOMEDIR from REALNAME, and thus, all I do is set HOMEDIR to be what I want, or /home/./user_name to have it chroot. This is probably the most 'de-cluttered' explanation of what I meant.

The file needs to exist and be writeable for syslog to write to it when you restart it or send it the sigHUP. (Or at least it use to and I've just always done it that way. ;-) ) 2. Make sure that there are "tab" characters separating the selector and the action. Otherwise the m4(1) processing quietly ignores it.

The files in those directories are not of much use (should not be anyway). But secondly, permissions of 111 on the root of ~ftp would make it so that "ls" would respond with no files found. But even with 111 on the parent directory, if you know the pathname and the file is readable, you can get the file.

What should the ownership, group and permissions be on the directories in the basic ~ftp directory tree? What group should this user be in? 2) Is it a bad idea to have a real user maintaining the site? Should it be maintained by root instead? I'm sorry if these are FAQs. My justification is that all the documents I can find that address these issues contradict one another and are often quite vague. Please don't misunderstand: I don't want to flame those who produced the documentation, but much of it is a few years old, and would benefit from being tidied and updated.

Device and libraries cannot be share between different OSes not even between OS of different Major version ex: SunOS-4.x vs SunOS-5.x the libs format may differ and the major/minor numbers of the device may differ etc .... You can always make ~ftp local and export ~ftp/pub watch out for SunOS-5.x you may need a handfull of libs because of the uses of XTI, door and other non document secrets :-) see your man page > > > >The other system happens to be an SGI system and the one I use mknod on is a > >SUN system.

I posted about this some time ago, but still have not found a solution. Let's start fresh, and see if anyone has any ideas that haven't been tried yet. The host is running SunOS 4.1.3. The ftpd is "Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-13]". This system was working fine until early April sometime, when it stopped allowing anonymous uploads to /incoming. As far as I've been able to determine, nothing changed regarding the filesystem at that time. Here's the behavior that I see. I login as anonymous, and cd to /incoming. I give a put command for a file (doesn't seem to matter what kind of file), and I get: 200 PORT command successful. 550 fchown: Not owner. The file is created, but it is zero bytes long. It *does* have the ownerships and mode specified in ftpaccess for /incoming: I can change them in the file, send a HUP to inetd and repeat the exercise, and they do reflect my changes. I've tried changing modes on various directories including /incoming, re-reading the FAQ, man pages and other documentation, and even tried using 'trace' to follow the file operation. Here's the result - dorothy.jpg is the file I'm attempting to upload: read (0, "STOR dorothy.jpg\r\n", 4096) = 18 setitimer (0, 0xeffff988, 0xeffff978) = 0 gettimeofday (0xeffff0e8, 0) = 0 stat ("dorothy.jpg", 0xeffff9b8) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat ("./", 0xefffcf60) = 0 stat ("/incoming", 0xefffcf20) = 0 umask (0) = 02 open ("dorothy.jpg", 07002, 0660) = 8 umask (02) = 0 getuid () = 0 setreuid (-1, 0) = 0 fchown (8, 31982, 30030) = -1 EPERM (Not owner) setreuid (-1, 31982) = 0 write (1, "550 fchown: Not owner.\r\n", 24) = 24 This would be confounding enough, were it not for the fact that all of this used to work fine. This server has been functioning nicely for years without major changes, but somehow it all went wrong, and has stayed wrong for about 6 weeks now. "Real" users can upload to their respective areas fine. As myself, I can even upload to /incoming without a glitch. It would seem that the problem lies with the ftp user, or the guest group, or some combination, but I've yet to find the solution... and don't recall making any changes just before the problem appeared. Has anyone seen this before? I'll try to provide any additional information that I've forgotten here, just ask. -- Bob Bob Hardy, System Administrator/Webmaster HAL Computer Systems Inc., A Fujitsu Company 1315 Dell Avenue, Campbell, CA 95008 Email: bobh@hal.com, Voice: (408) 341-5083, FAX: (408) 341-5401 WWW Home page: http://web.hal.com/users/bobh/ From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Wed May 14 14:14:17 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id OAA21592; Wed, 14 May 1997 14:08:10 -0500 (CDT) Received: from delta.threel.co.uk (atHC4qD+OyvFJV3iyHXP/h1fWfTMV4LL@delta.threel.co.uk [195.188.234.13]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id OAA22914 for ; Wed, 14 May 1997 14:00:00 -0500 (CDT) Received: from oberon.threel.co.uk by delta.threel.co.uk; (5.65v3.2/1.1.8.2/1996112801) id AA19190; Wed, 14 May 1997 19:59:54 +0100 Message-Id: <1.5.4.32.19970514185951.006faf08@delta.threel.co.uk> Date: Wed, 14 May 1997 19:59:51 +0100 Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Sara Hopkins To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: loading files with specific permissions Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Sender: sh@delta.threel.co.uk X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 1.5.4 (32) X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN Dear All, I have this line in my ftpaccess file: upload /sites/web-3L /pub/cgi-bin/* yes wwwadm3l users 0775 My intention is to have the cgi-bin directory and all files loaded into it to have permissions 0775.

(I dont >wanna use Front Page, but if we have to then we have to) One thing that could work is to set up your webpages hierarchy the same way you would the anonymous FTP tree, then set up guestgroup users that use as their home directories the appropriate levels in the webpages tree. Permissions should allow them to modify their own webpages but nobody else's and they can't cd outside the chrooted webpage hierarchy. This would prevent the exposure from real-user FTP logins. You could even set this up so that the user would be able to use FTP only and couldn't log in via telnet, or you could allow telnets if you want - but if you allow them to telnet in then there is no logical reason to disallow real-user FTP.

The problem is if I login as test, then I CD to test, it saya command successful, even though I am in the current directory and there is no subdirectory called test.

If you don't get anywhere, I have heard on another list that AIX works better if you put the IP aliases in for the local interface instead of the ethernet interface. You then need to finagle routing. We had to do this to get around the fact that bootp clients expected responses from the IP address they sent to (an alias), but the server was sending using the primary interface address. -- Jay -- Jay Schuster The People's Computer Company `Revolutionary Programming' From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Thu May 15 10:33:01 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id KAA10667; Thu, 15 May 1997 10:30:26 -0500 (CDT) Received: from hermes.ldd.net (dns.ldd.net [209.16.220.10]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id KAA12608 for ; Thu, 15 May 1997 10:27:19 -0500 (CDT) Received: from pc01.ldd.net ([209.16.220.51]) by hermes.ldd.net (post.office MTA v2.0 0813 ID# 108-33471U20000) with ESMTP id AAA12953 for ; Thu, 15 May 1997 10:24:44 -0500 Message-Id: <19970515152444.AAA12953@pc01.ldd.net> Date: Thu, 15 May 1997 10:26:40 -0500 Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: kman@ldd.net (Paul Kester) To: Subject: Setting up guest user accounts MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: Microsoft Internet Mail 4.70.1155 X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN I am also an Administrator for an ISP and I am setting up accounts for my Web users so that they can see their web information only.

What is strange is if I change directory to a folder in the account, ls works but ls -ls doesn't. The /export/ftp/dev files are there and correct. All this worked prior wu-ftp using Sun ftp.

Any thoughts? Yes I've recall having this problem, or something similar I think if the partiion is NFS you must also have ~ftp/dev/ticlts it is due to the NFS locking scheme(that's all I remember) ticlts, ticots, ticotsord, etc .. are part of the XTI/TLI STREAMS stuff. At on point, we had lots of wu-ftpd-HOWTO's on Solaris, but I lost track, If you're patient and browse the archive, you could dig some pointers. or man ftpd the man page contains a script -- au revoir, alain ---- Aussi haut que l'on soit assis, on est toujours assis que sur son cul !!!

Any thoughts? > > Ken Hogan This works for a normal mount, but can't say anything for NFS... have not tried that yet :-) OK there are 4 devices you will have to setup in the ~ftp dir. If you have multiple guest accounts I suggest setting up the dev files in one dir and hard linking the rest of the ftp users directories. *But remember you can not span FS's with hard links and you will need that inode map to have a link work in the chroot env. Anyway here are the devs for SPARC and x86: x86... hal:45:/home/archive/dev # ls -la total 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 May 12 21:12 ./ drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 512 May 13 10:50 ../ crw-rw-rw- 5 root other 11, 42 May 12 21:10 tcp crw-rw-rw- 5 root other 99, 1 May 12 21:11 ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 5 root other 11, 41 May 12 21:11 udp crw-rw-rw- 5 root other 13, 12 May 12 21:10 zero hal:46:/home/archive/dev # SPARC.... pilsner:/dev:14>ls -lL tcp ticotsord udp zero crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 42 Oct 18 1996 tcp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 105, 1 Oct 18 1996 ticotsord crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 11, 41 Nov 2 1995 udp crw-rw-rw- 1 root sys 13, 12 Nov 2 1995 zero pilsner:/dev:14> you can create these by the mknod command >mknod name c major minor ex: >maknod tcp c 11 42 ** remember to set the perms to 666 Once these are made on the slice you can hard link to them from any directory on the same slice. There are also several libs you will need to put in a ~ftp/usr/lib directory these can also be hard linked from one place on the same slice libs: 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* One last thing there is a command that will layout a binary in the chroot environment and show you every problem you might be having... libs not there, can't find device.... >truss -d chroot ~ftp /bin/ls Also... take a look at the man pages for ftpd, they are really helpful.

Ideas not listed below ? Please post > them. Attaboy ! Keep up the good work ! Here's a couple more suggestions to give you somthing to do over the weekend :- a) For guest groups etc., check that usr/bin, usr/lib etc. directories are visible from each user's chrooted home directory, and that they contain the same files as those under the ~ftp equivalents. (You'd need to make this check in case the directories haven't been hard linked.) b) This may be going a bit far, but you _could_ add in some OS-specific checks, such as : the required timezone files/directories are in place (varies by OS) ~ftp/dev/tcp set to 666 otherwise passive connections fail (Solaris 2) etc... If you want to go to this level of detail, I'm sure others who have suffered problems specific to their OS's will chip in more suggestions. :-) Cheers, Bob > 1.

The guest directory needs to be just one level up from the ftp, so my password entry looks like this... else ftp cannot find files!! guest:x:268:21:FTP named user:/ftp/./guest:/bin/false And now it works! well almost I still garbage when I do a simple ls, but everything else works! is the ls issue a known bug under solaris 2.5 I get it on anonymous, guest accounts and standard logins (using ftp).

Under Sol 2.5.1 ( at least ), nosuid mounts also mean "nodev", so no device nodes will work as device nodes on the partition. That one caught me when my server crashed over the weekend, and I had forgotten that I was futzing with the vfstab the week before. This is also the common problem with running anon FTP off of an NFS mounted partition. NFS mounted disks are commonly mounted "nosuid" for security reasons.

As an extra line of defense you can have : ---------- 1 ftpadmin root 0 Aug 4 1994 .forward ---------- 1 ftpadmin root 0 Aug 4 1994 .rhosts This makes sure an attempt to create a .forward and/or .rhosts will fail.

In our /ftp/bin/ directory we have copies of ls, gzip and tar executable with library STATICALLY linked. If you check with a 'ls -l' you can see the difference. To have a statically linked file you should add '-non_shared' to CFLAGS when you compile the programs (if compiled with Digital 'cc'). Anyway if you already have a working 'ls', the problem could be different...

Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN I've spent the last two days pouring through newsgroups, FAQs, online tutorials, and the archives of this mailing list, and I haven't been able to find the solution to my problem. :( I currently have a group of FTP users that are "guestgrouped" for two reasons: - to disable their ability to delete any files anywhere - to restrict them to their home directories. I now need to create a new group of FTP users who are still restricted to their home directories but CAN delete files. If I guestgroup these users, they get restricted by the same "no delete" configuration in ftpaccess that prevents my first group of users from deleting files. But if I don't guestgroup these users, they don't get chrooted. How can I make two guestgrouped groups that are treated differently?

If so check to make sure the target file in that directive does not exist (else it triggers a shutdown).

It results in a syslog message to the effect of fcntl failed, delaying. I was half working on something else which I worked a fix into this for. Basically, what I've done is written a separate server which wu.ftpd talks to to request entry into a given class. This daemon keeps track of the number of users and the amount of bandwidth they've used (it's a less hacked extension to my original toying with cistron's throttle hacks for wu.ftpd). I've found that it uses up an innordinant amount of cpu, however (roughly .03 percent per ftpd on an SGI Indy (150Mhz R4400)). I'm thinking about some fixes for this but it'll have to wait until next week. It's also not 100% clean on the ftpd side either (some residual file locking stills needs to be removed.) If there's still interest in this server, I'll try to do a release later this week. Given all this, the server is at least stable, and requires no disk access (except after a startup or a restart, of course). Chris... P.S.

The calls to 'ln' are not really compilations, (the phrase 'linking makefiles' is sort of misleading) but just the creation of symlinks (or copies - if your OS doesn't support symlinks) in the source code directory to the proper makefile (ie src/makefile -> makefiles/makefile.sol) The messages given are just status messages indicating that the file was not linked (copied) because it hadn't changed since the last build.

Everything up to that point is just configuration (correct makefile and config.h for your platform) Now, if he is deleting the binaries and *then* running a build which creates binaries, then I must be wrong. But I know that a variant of this very problem on my SCO platform caused me a day or two of grief, until I realized that the changes weren't being re-compiled, but old binaries (which were still on the path) were being executed, and the new ones weren't being built. Now, the 'Abort' string after it boots could also help. I'm assuming this is the string echoed to the console when SIGABRT is caught. If so, a core file should be generated and could be run through a symbolic debugger to determine the fault in the code. However, due to the error messages pertaining to the 'licensing', I still think the problem is with the environment, and not wu-ftpd. -- memmerto@undergrad.math.uwaterloo.ca University of Waterloo - 1B Computer Science GSI Computer Services - President From owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Wed May 21 02:46:15 1997 Received: from host (wugate.wustl.edu [128.252.120.1]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with SMTP id CAA28471; Wed, 21 May 1997 02:45:15 -0500 (CDT) Received: from dragonlair.dal.net (dalvenja@snielsen1.reshall.ucsd.edu [128.54.129.22]) by wugate.wustl.edu (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id CAA24794 for ; Wed, 21 May 1997 02:39:40 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from dalvenja@localhost) by dragonlair.dal.net (8.8.5/8.8.5) id AAA25607 for wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu; Wed, 21 May 1997 00:39:39 -0700 Message-Id: <199705210739.AAA25607@dragonlair.dal.net> Date: Wed, 21 May 1997 00:39:38 -0700 (PDT) Reply-To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Sender: owner-wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu From: Dalvenjah FoxFire To: wu-ftpd@wugate.wustl.edu Subject: Re: trouble with some graphical clients In-Reply-To: from "Jaime G.

This makes it such that you only have one copy of the actual file, but several *real* pointers to it, that will work with a chrooted environment. Keep in mind that if you *modify* the contents of one file (i.e., cat the contents of something to bin/ls) you will modify all of them. You can safely rm or mv one without affecting the others. Also note that 'du' and 'ls' will show that each takes up the same amount of space, but 'df' will show you true disk usage. -dalvenjah -- Dalvenjah FoxFire (aka Sven Nielsen) "We've lost the bleeps, the creeps, Founder, the DALnet IRC Network and the sweeps!"

Content-Type: text X-URL: http://www.dal.net/~dalvenjah/ X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN Hi all, I've got wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12 with the virtual host patch installed. I'm trying to understand it, and it appears that all the virtual host patch does is to find out from the socket which ip it was passed via inetd. It doesn't do a bind or anything - all it uses this info for is for logging and to find out to which tree it should chroot if anonymous. Am I correct in this line of thinking? What we want to be able to do is to have anonymous ftp available on a single virtual host, and to refuse (or otherwise deny) ftp connections to other virtual addresses (and the real address) of the machine. Judging from what I can tell from the source, it would be best to implement this by way of a virtual-hosting inetd, or perhaps with the extensions to tcpwrappers. Am I missing something obvious here? I just want to find out if my line of thinking is correct, and that there's not a better solution that I haven't thought of.

This will form the basis of a small intranet and will be accessed by Individuals split into groups, with each group being responsible for the upkeep of their groups information. I was hoping to allow users to ftp to the server in order to maintain their respective areas. Nearly all these users have normal unix login accounts used for shell access, would it be possible using wu-ftpd to have a configuration such, that based on the users unix group-id ( or do I need to use guest groups ), they get chrooted to their groups area. Would it be better to implement this on a group by group basis, or just have the users chrooted to /www/htdocs and then let normal unix permissions control access. I would be interested to hear from anyone that has experience of such a setup.

There is an alternative (and IMHO better) method vor supporting Virtual Hosting that is currently undergoing testing at multiple sites. This version allows you to specify complete individual ftpaccess files for each of the virtual domains. This means you can now support 'deny', 'limit', 'class' etc. for each virtual domain.

We have some documents being served by wu-ftpd from a partition mounted onto a Unix box from a Novell server. The users who can put files in these space on the Novell server can use whatever they want to to create the files (ie, a Mac, etc). Here's the problem: Some files get created with just line feeds (LF) at the end of each line and some get created with carriage return/line feeds (CR/LF). When you access these files via an ftp URL the files with just LF's are displayed as one long line while the files with CR/LF are double spaced. Bizarre.

If wu-ftpd actually aborts (ie SIGABRT) there needs to be a core file, but may not be stored in root. Try the directory where the binary is, /etc, and /tmp. Maybe do a 'find / -name core -print'. Also, is the 30 seconds a fixed amount (ie aborts after 30 seconds all the time) or does it vary? It may well be some type of wierd configuration on socket timeouts, or the first connection to the ftp port.

Then have a cron job which establishes an ftp sesion with the novell server and moves everything in the temp store into the unix mounted Novell share. That way the the conversion should get done.

You can augment it to handle dos files as well. Geofft AT a guess I would say they dont use ftp, they see the Novell fs as just a network share/volume. No problems if you use the same OS to read the files as that which generated them in the first place. Why not create a temporary store (on the Novell server - not the unix mount point) that the clients deposit into. Then have a cron job which establishes an ftp sesion with the novell server and moves everything in the temp store into the unix mounted Novell share. That way the the conversion should get done.

Our first thought was permissions, too. The odd thing is that access (i.e., permissions) is just fine under the standard AIX ftpd. The *only* thing different is that we use the wu-ftpd instead of the AIX ftpd (change via /etc /inetd.conf & refresh -s inetd). It looks like the wu-ftpd is causing some kind of tighter security to be invoked. What I don't understand is why the wu-ftpd would affect or influence a transaction that doesn't involve ftp. Or am I barking up the wrong tree here? Again, thanks.

You have to options (with Solaris): First one: mount the disks wherever you want and then mount some directories as loopback file systems (read only or whatever option you want) to other directories under the ftp structure. Second one: use the Online Disk Suite software that comes with the Solaris distributions CDs and create a metadevice .... Regards, Javier Puche.

Huh ! Sorry, I don't read the list and did not see your previous posts Sound, you having problem with tarring anc compressing on the fly ? the first step: see if it works under regular login .i.e non anonymous. if yes, it's maybe something du to the chroot() or the path. check the ftpconversion file, maybe the syntax is wrong. send the ftpconversion file to the list, maybe someone could help (you can CC to me, I have some hours to spare) > curious, good luck -- au revoir, alain ---- Aussi haut que l'on soit assis, on est toujours assis que sur son cul !!!

Check the original ftpd man page which came with Solaris (not the one included with the WU distribution). This has instructions for all the files you need to copy over for an anonymous installation. Mine says ~ftp/dev Make this directory owned by the super-user and unwritable by anyone. First perform ls -lL on the device files listed below to determine their major and minor numbers, then use mknod to create them in this directory. /dev/zero /dev/tcp /dev/udp /dev/ticotsord but yours may differ, as I'm on Solaris 2.5, not 2.5.1...

At least current versions gzip are supposed to decompress files compressed with "compress" (ala "uncompress"), but you might want to run "uncompress" on it to make sure and then if it decompresses OK, run "tar" extract on it. As someone else suggested, you might double-check that you FTPed it as a binary.

Hanke" To: "'WUFTPD List'" Subject: FTP password cracking X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN Dear WUFTPD'ers In trying to check some possible security holes, ran across one that WUFTPD seemed to make worse. Hope someone can possibly point out a way around this. Normally with UNIX, on purpose, they do not give you any feedback during the login process until after you enter both the user id and password. This increases the number of permutations exponentially required to crack into an account. But with Beta 11 version at least (and I strongly suspect all versions) if you enter a "garbage" user name you get the following response: 530 User garbage access denied.... Login failed. Of course if you enter a valid user id that has proper access authorization you get the password prompt. So it is very easy for a computer program being used to crack in, to realize when they have discovered a valid id. Then can then shift to cracking the 8 character (on UNIX anyway) password for this account. Even if you limit their consecutive logon tries to 3 like I do, this just slows them down a little, they just try 3 iterations at a time before doing another open and 3 more tries.... This scenario can occur on any WUFTPD server but in our case it is a FTP download server that is on the internet. Many of our customers have been given guest class ids that they use to setup private download areas. But since their end users can come from any possible IP address, there is no way to use guest class IP restrictions. Thought of using the UNIX account LOCKOUT mechanism (despite the recent CERT on SGI's ;-( but this introduces the possibility of denial of service attacks on all accounts on this server. Which could render this server useless if someone cracked valid user ids and then started cracking the password resulting in account lockouts. Am not able to go to a skey implementation because our customers do not want to put up with the extra inconvenience. But even this just means an internet cracker would need to crack a 28 (or so) character password instead of an 8 character one. It does not prevent them from discovering valid user ids which is the real problem as I see it. So anyway to have WUFTPD suck in user id and password and then do its access checks? So that valid user ids could not be discerned at least. So that no access denied, or invalid password, or any other error messages would come out prior to entering both user id and password?

I have no Solaris source license so it only makes sense to me to minimize what is required to setup a public ftp facility.

That fixed problem 1, but the END_OF_FILE encountered problem persisted. I finally moved the source to an ANSI-CC system and didn't have to make any changes to the source or make.
