luckily, the machine is an ultra (E150) and, so, both libraries exist. 
placing them into ~ftp/usr/lib created the desired effect.

i agree that it's unfortunate that libmp is not mentioned in the SUN
in.ftpd page.  the page claims to be complete and even has an embedded
script -- which i ran.  

perhaps, libmp would be a good add to the Solaris section of the FAQ.

personally, will just put this into my UNIX Admin locker under 'lessons
learned' and remember it fondly.

thanks for the info.

              5. I want to use zip compression (InfoZip)

                 via ftp, not via telnet
              7. Somebody uploaded a file with a weird name
              8. I want anonymous users to be able to upload files, but
                 in the most secure manner possible
              9. The default umask used when a real user uploads a file
                 is wrong
             10. I heard something about 'SITE EXEC' having a security
                 hole
             11. How do I make reports more readable ?
             12. Incoming file transfers fail with SunOS and an NFS
                 mounted incoming
             13. Normal ftp clients work, Netscape ftp's fail. So,
                 passive mode doesn't work.
             14. I want to redirect anonymous users to another machine
        10. Other things
              1. Where is the FTP protocol documented ?
              2. How can I make my ftp-archive accessible by E-mail
                 (ftpmail) ?
        11. Credits

# easier then, but I just thought of another reason why merging in additional
# stuff can be confusing. I'd hate to run into an ftpusers file for some site
# with just 'ftp' in it. Somehow I wouldn't quite trust it. I'd prefer a
# 'complete' list for that and for the other files except ftpaccess.

I was not considering merging the other files at this time.  What I meant to 
say was a complete ftpaccess config file for each domain.  That way then there 
is no problem with having to look in two different files to see what a domain 
has permission-wise, worrying about a new syntax or rules for dealing with 
merging/overriding, etc. Clean and simple, what you see is what you've
got for that domain.

The more I think about it the more I don't see the benefit of merging.  The
only time it would be useful would be when you need to make massive changes
to your message files disk configuration.  I see too many negatives and not
enough value other than saving a few K of disk space and initially a minute 
or two of admin time, even for large sites (and that's questionable).  Admin 
maintenance will probably be less with a single file than two separate files 
and balancing directives between them. Personally I'd much rather deal with 
a complete copy of a virtual domains files rather having to deal with multiple 
sets.  It also makes the code simpler, quicker and cleaner as well.

I agree with Kent that the best solution at the moment is to maintain a
complete ftpaccess file for a virtual server, if you want to override anything
at all in the default ftpaccess file.  (As I understand it, you don't need a
separate ftpaccess file if you don't want to change anything, as the default
will then be used.)

This is not exacly a lot of hassle for the sys-admin - just copy the default
and change the bits you want.

It doesn't seem worth the design and programming effort to try to merge a
partial ftpaccess file into the default one, when just maintaining a complete
alternative file is so easy.

Just my tuppence worth...

Cheers, Bob

It's just that I prefer to have some defaults. Then again, I don't want to
have those defaults if it means I have to change lots of extra files or have
files with just one entry where I'd suspect more.

Back to stupid buffering problems in the newsfeed for the moment.

Subject: xferlog identifying failed transfers
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I would like to log transfers that dropped their internet connection in the
middle or from a browser user that hit stop in the middle of a transfer.
Currently, they are not included in the xferlog.  I read an FAQ from the
archive where someone logs at the beginning and end of each transfer and post
processes the log to find the incomplete transmissions.  Is there a way to
force a log entry at the end of all transfers regardless of how they are
terminated?  How does the browser communicate with the ftpd to indicate a
successfully completed transfer or how does the browser signal ftpd to
terminate a transfer prior to completion?
For accurate internet traffic analysis, I need to log the number of bytes
transferred for a transmission that does not complete normally, and flag that
transfer in the log as incomplete.  Any ideas?

Thanks in advance, Steve Hein

wu-ftpd should log partial transfers.  Check the file; I certainly see a
few short ones, just happen to be working on that issue right now.

I am just curious if this is correct behavior for wu_ftp.  Should 
either 'anonymous' or 'ftp' work for ftp logins without a password?

All behavior seems to be identical for 'ftp' or 'anonymous'.  Either
one gets listed as below in the 'ftp.log'
  ANONYMOUS FTP LOGIN FROM localhost [127.0.0.1].

I know that telnet and other logins fail for the 'ftp' user.

thanks in advance,

i don't really know how to interpret that (other than i was trying to

Yes, but not so much (if at all) since upgrading to 2.4.2-b13.

Yes, this is the correct behaviour.  "ftp" is usually the name of the user
account which is set up for the anonymous server, so it works as well as
"anonymous".  (Of course, it is also shorter to type, which is convenient...)

If set up properly, the account should have no valid password (typically "*"
under UNIX), and therefore reject telnet attempts.

Cheers, Bob

	Hi. I just installed the wu-ftp server on a Solaris 4.x server and I'm having trouble with the anonymous login. I think I have to create an anonymous account but I'm not sure. When I try to login as anonymous it gives the message 
"unknown account" or something like that. My address is fsorozco@cicese.mx
Thanks!

Hello...


	Can the administrator put a footer in the mail messages with a pointer to the FAQ?  That might increase the signal to noise ratio of the messages on the list.

Chris,

> 	Can the administrator put a footer in the mail messages with a pointer to the FAQ?  That might increase the signal to noise ratio of the messages on the list.

I've suggested this on the list a couple of times in the last few months
(not sure how to contact the list maintainer, so I hoped they'd spot the
post), but with no success.  I'm glad you've also requested this - perhaps
another voice will help.

  :-)

Cheers, Bob

I don't think they can.  This list server uses ListProc as its list managment 
system and the only thing I think they can possibly do is put the FAQ URLs in 
the "welcome" and "info" messages that subscribers get.  Right now, the 
welcome file only contains:

>>

Welcome to WU-FTPD!

  The purpose of this list is to discuss configuration of, enhancements
to, or problems with the wuarchive ftpd.
 
  There is also an wuarchive ftpd announcement list.  You may subscribe
to this list by sending a mail message with a body of 
    SUBSCRIBE WU-FTPD-ANNOUNCE <your full name>
to the list server (listproc@mail.wustl.edu).

<<

It really should contain URLs for the FAQ, the guest how to, etc.

Other than that, at least as far as I know, in ListProc 7.2, there was no 
option to set to tell ListProc to add a header or footer to the body of all 
incoming messages before mailing them out to the list subscribers.  Someone 
could check with CREN at http://www.cren.net/ and ask them if ListProc can do 
that now.  If it can't, then perhaps someone needs to send CREN a ListProc 
feature request.  But then again, what do I know, I haven't looked at ListProc 
in a while and I could be wrong and you can now add footers to incoming 
messages in ListProc.  :)

I do know, however, that Majordomo does allow the list owner to add a header 
or footer to the body or even extra header lines in the RFC822 header of all 
incoming messages before it redirects them to all subscribers.  It's one of 
the reasons I've always used Majordomo for setting up mailing lists for my 
current and previous employers.  The other is the cost of ListProc.  :)

I would imagine it would be too much of a pain to have someone sponsor a 
Majordomo mailing list server, move everyone over to that server, and change 
everyone's web pages to point to the new location just to get a footer in all 
postings from the mailing list.

For now at least, I think the list owner should just put the relevant URLs in 
ListProc's welcome and info files for the wu-ftpd and wu-ftpd-announce lists.

Subject: problem about wu-ftpd(?)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN


dear sir:

  i've just setuped a ftp server for d/l shareware, and i have limited
  the max. anonymous users for network bandwidth issue.

  but i found under heavy loading( much over my limit ), the
  ftp would just refuse the connection request - no ligin title,
  just "..connection refused..."
  (the log file has nothing about that response)

  i've tried the wu-ftpd 2.4.2b12 and b13, the same happened...

  but i did find that if i re-run the inetd(kill -1 PID), it would
  go back, and then after sometimes, it went dead again...

  my linux is official redhat 4.1(kernel 2.0.27), without any upgrade
  yet, i suspect this is not due to the ftpd but the inetd, can anyone
  give me some ideas?

  should i update the kernel? or try anything else to solve the problem?

  my netwrok card is i82557 using eepro100 driver via module, does this
  "unofficial" driver matter?

  i really needs some help, please feel free to send me any words, I'll
  be very appriciated about that... :)

  thanks agian!

For a footer ?  Yes. ;-)  I'd be happy to have it run from the Resource Center
but that seems alot of trouble everyone to go to for what we'd get.   I'll 
contact Naeem and see if he can add a blurb to the intro message that resembles
what Michael Brennen <mbrennen@fni.com> sends around.  That would point new 
members at the places to start looking before asking questions on the list.

(Maybe we can talk Michael into posting his quick reference list weekly...)

Hear hear.. and a note to first-time submitters where to find the faq and
all that.. better yet, to have it in the info when subscribing (or is it
already in there.. been awhile).

: I've suggested this on the list a couple of times in the last few months

This is an inetd problem.  'man inetd' to see how to increase the maximum
number of connections per minute.  Another alternative is xinetd.

Subject: Configuring ftp with Unix user or ftpd user
X-Mailer: Microsoft Mail V3.0
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN


Hi everybody,

I must install a ftp site to distribute files to a lot of identified users.
Each user must have access to their specific files only and not to files of 
the others.
I must provide a security system with a password.
I must detect the downloading of each file by each user.

For this is it necessary to create a specific account for each user in my 
Unix computer or is the user configuration inside wu ftpd good enough ?
Must i use specific Unix file protection or the daemon is enough ?
How to lock user in their specific directories ?
Is it easy to extract each downloading activity with a script analysing the 
logging files with the granularity about the user and the file ?

Thanks a lot for information and references about this type of problem.

This is my first use of a ftp daemon !

I seem to remember this being discussed here about a month ago and the answer was that it isn't the server that sets the TYPE, but the client.  So if your client defaults to ASCII mode, then you need to change that to binary there and the client would send the command to the server to change to whatever mode it wants.  You might check the archives for the list to find out if nobody else answers you.

I agree that putting it in the Welcome message would be a help - probably
should do this even if Listserv can put it into a footer for us...

And if Listserv can't generate footers, I'd suggest a daily post, rather
than a weekly one.  (I can do this if Michael doesn't want to.  However,
I'd want to be certain that the frequency of such a posting is acceptable
to the rest of the list.)

Cheers, Bob

Hello, I have read the FAQ's and looked all over the net trying to find out
what I am doing wrong.

Here is the situation, I am basicly trying to make
/usr/local/www/htdocs/username the ROOT directory for the user when they
login.

in the password it goes /export/home/username/./<symbolic link to web
directory>

When the user FTP's in it drops them into the web directory just like it
should. Yet the "PWD" command reveals they are in
/usr/local/www/htdocs/username and NOT "/" which I want. Also, they can run
around the system just as normal.

I have thought the problem lied in the ftpaccess file and I had to put the
user under a guestgroup <groupname>. When I did that, the user is denied
access with the message "Cannot set guest privledges"

Anyone have any ideas or places I might be able to find some answers?

My Linux Box is setup so that my Win95 partitions are mounted and can be
seen by everyone.  How do I set it up so that only certin people can see
those partitions when they ftp in? Especily anonymous users.  I have 3
Win95 partitions and they are mounted to  /dosc  /dosd  /dose.

I have tried to change permissions for RWX and I have also tried changing
the owership, and group.  I have tried changing it at the mount point and
even in the /dev/ directory.  But NOTHING works, what is the best way to
set it up???

Thanks In Advance!!!

Once a day may be a bit extreme.  But if you do post it occasionally,
(more than once a week or something) please use a unique subject line so
that those of us who don't need it can filter it out with our email clients.


Thanks

Pink elephants with an attitude inspired Bob Luckin <bobl@dadd.ti.com> to tell garfield.mail.wu-ftpd:
: And if Listserv can't generate footers, I'd suggest a daily post, rather
: than a weekly one.  (I can do this if Michael doesn't want to.  However,
: I'd want to be certain that the frequency of such a posting is acceptable
: to the rest of the list.)
I'd really hate to see the same thing everyday (heck, I'm trying to get rid
of all the administrative mail I get with lots of scripting stuff and you're
suggesting daily mails with the same info...) even if I just gateway the
list to a local newsgroup and can easily filter it. Since most faqs probably
come from users who weren't subscribed before, it would be far more
efficient IMHO to basically bounce the first submission and send back the
faq/info for the list again. One may argue that long time-readers who haven't
submitted anything yet will get the same treatment, but they will know
that it will happen.

BTW there are some Compuserve addresses on this list that are invalid. gotta
send them to listmaster someday..

Anonymous users shouldn't be dumped in your root directory by default.
If it does, try changing the home directory for the 'ftp' user in
/etc/passwd to the place you want anonymous users placed.

To change the vfat mount, try mount /dosc -o umask=7
This'll strip the rwx for those other than the owner/group of the drive.

Two suggestions.  One, go over the guest group howto with great care; 
guest ftp depends on all the details being right.  Two, if you just get
stuck, look at the result code that is coming back (530?) and grep the
source to find all the places that error is returned, and see under what
conditions it fails.  Without seeing your setup in detail it is impossible
to contribute much more.

hello!!!

I had installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13

User chroot()s correctly, but cannot see any of the files or directories.

when I do

ftp server_name I can see
Name (server:martaf):martaf
Password:
230 User martaf logged in. Access restrictions apply
Remote system type is UNIX
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp>ls
200 PORT command seccesful
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls
226 Transfer Complete.
ftp>

and I can see the files of my directory, but I can get it if I know the
name of the file and I can put any file but I can see the files with ls

I say that chroot() is correctly because if I do for example
ftp>cd /etc
550 /etc: No such file or directory
ftp>cd /usr
550 /usr: No such file or directory
ftp>get /etc/passwd
550 /etc/passwd: No such file or directory


Please can anyone help me???

thanks in advance

Okay.. this might be a stretch but it's worth a shot:

Problem:
Is there a way of logging file transfers to separate log files,
determined by the user (or group) of the person logging in?  I would use
virtual servers in 2.4.2, but I would like to do this with a single IP
address.

For example, when user "bob" logs in and transfers files, it is logged
to /var/log/ftpxfer.bob.  When user "mary" logs in, her file transfers
are logged to "mary".

Reason:
The main problem I am running into with a single log file is that
multiple customers all have a change root to their own directory, so I
have no unique identifier to use to filter the log file.

Possible Alternative:
I guess another workaround to this would be to log the absolute path of
all files transfered, regardless of any change root done by the server.

If anyone knows if any of the above is possible, please let me know!
Thanks,

Sounds like an ls problem.  The guest howto goes over how to set this up.

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

Hi,

I finally manage to install wu-ftpd-2.4-beta-13 in my AlphaServer running Digital Unix 3.2c with 
Enhanced (C2) Security thanks to the alpha-osf-managers list. Now I have another problem: every 
time someone ftp to my machine it displays a message with the present number of users logged in 
(%N) but insted of the actual number it always displays -1 !?!?!?
Any ideas why is it doing this?

Antonio

Greetings all:

Has anyone been able to compile WU on Solaris to use flock instead of fcnlt.  
I know that in the standard Solaris build this is turned off.

Using a standard Sun complier, however, one should be able to use the BSD 
headers and so forth to use flock.

Thanks in advanced.

Anth

Hello, 
Though I received a reply from the listproc that I am already subscribed to
this list, I haven't seen any activity in months, so I am skeptical and
request that any answers also be sent directly to me.

I am running wuftpd on Solaris after having experience on SUN OS.  Is there
any way to hide the bin, dev, etc, and usr directories from anonymous
users?  From guest users?

Thank you.

Subject: Non-IP Virtual FTP Support
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

All the talk about virtual FTP on this list got me thinking.  Many
HTTP servers have support for non-IP based virtual hosts using the
Host: header.  So I thought it might also be nice to have a HOST
command in FTP.  I made a proposal to the FTP working group on Friday.
There haven't been many responses yet, but so far two people are
against it, and one is in favor (sort of.)

I would like to take an informal poll.  Please send me email with
answers to the questions:

1) Extending FTP with a HOST command for non-IP virtual support
   (For, Against, Don't care)

2) Do you access any ftp sites that currently have different directories
   for different companies hosted on the same machine?

3) Are you an ISP, Web Presence Provider, or similar organization that
   hosts multiple domains?

Your input would be much appreciated.  If there's interest in this
question, I will post a summary of the results.

Thanks.

DCE authentication patch (version 0.8) for Academ wu-ftpd 2.4.2-beta-13
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch adds DCE authentication to Academ's wu-ftpd version
2.4.2-beta-13. You can retrieve this version of wu-ftpd via the URL:

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13.tar.Z

To apply the patch, acquire and untar the wu-ftpd distribution, change into
the wu-ftpd-2.4 directory and type:

patch -p1 -d . < /path/to/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13-dce-0.8.diff

This patch has only been tested under Solaris 2.5/Transarc 1.1, and it
should compile in that environment without any problems. Makefile
modifications for AIX 4.1 were contributed by Mark Plaksin
<happy@arches.uga.edu>, and you should be able to compile on that platform
with no changes, but I haven't tested it myself.

If you want to use this patch with a different vendor's DCE, you will
need to edit the appropriate Makefile in src/makefiles for your system
and add the correct libraries. You can refer to src/makefiles/Makefile.sol
as an example.

If your OS doesn't support DCE as a naming service, you will need to
replicate your registry in local files for wu-ftpd to work. Solaris
users can install my nss_dce package to integrate DCE into the Solaris
naming service switch:

Changes
-------

0.8 - Updated to apply to Academ wu-ftpd 2.4.2-beta-13

    - Included modifications to Makefile.aix for AIX 4.1 as
      contributed by Mark Plaksin <happy@arches.uga.edu>

0.5 - First publicly released version for wu-ftpd 2.4

Subject: Closed Tickets before release of beta 14
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN


This note contains a summary of all tickets closed before the release of beta 
14. Most of these were not bug reports. Some are questions that were
answered in the documentation or the various FAQs. Some were bug reports
about previous beta releases that have already been fixed in the latest
beta (13). A few were complaints about some fundamental design decisions
made when wu-ftpd was created. Some were questions I did answer and have
closed. Some were notes about successful compliations of beta 13 or beta 12
on platforms to which I have not access. Some were offers of patches that
never materialized.

In any case, they are all closed. They are not relevant to beta 14 or any
future release. If you don't see that your ticket number is mentioned here
and it was not mentioned as being a closed ticket or bug fix in the beta 13
distribution, you should assume it is open. Some of these open tickets will 
be closed as bug fixes. A few will remain open as they are feature 
enhancements. These feature enhancements will be discussed on this list
when I am ready to start outlining the details of release 2.5.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 7 from Fredrik Nyman <ice@sled.gsfc.nasa.gov> concerns problems
making the ftpaccess file work on IRIX 5.3. I can't reproduce this since
I don't have access to IRIX and other who do don't report this as being
a problem. My guess is that there is no "-a" at the end of the /etc/inetd.conf
line for starting ftpd. [I should have closed this sooner, but didn't.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 39 from Nathan Neulinger <nneul@umr.edu> concerns a problem
with signal 10 aborts on HP/UX. I believe this problem was fixed in beta 13.
I am closing this ticket since I can't reproduce his problem without access
to HP/UX.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 48 from Scott Mulligan <mulligan@apple.com> was a request to
talk to me about something. We never made contact. He didn't acknowledge
my followup message. I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 68 from <ftpmaster@hol.gr> was not a bug report but a request for
more assistance in understanding how virtual ftp support works on wu-ftpd.
This ticket is closed since it is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 99 from  Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offered some 
suggeestions for the configuration of wu-ftpd on Digital Unix. These changes
were already included in beta 13. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 101 from ian@sco.com askes about the use of "user@" and "user@host"
conventions for anonymous ftp. This is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 116 from James Ford <jford@ua1ix.ua.edu> offers to compile wu-ftpd
on some AIX machines. This is not a bug report. However, I would welcome
any reports concerning AIX compliations.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 127, 171 & 240 from Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offers to 
compile wu-ftpd on Digital Unix 4.0. This is not a bug report. However, I 
would welcome any reports concerning Digital Unix compliations. So, Becki,
go ahead and compile away. Send me a report after you do it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 128 from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <root@startrek.in-trier.de> reports
that ftpaccess is not being seen on Linux. However, he does not provide
any information concerning the /etc/inetd.conf line for starting ftpd.
Since I can't reproduce this bug on Linux, this ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 150 from sroberts@smtpgwy.isinet.com offers to compile wu-ftpd
on some AIX machines. This is not a bug report. However, I would welcome
any reports concerning AIX compliations.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 176 from Danielle Hopkins <dani@itd.adelaide.edu.au> report that
compiling beta 12 on Digital Unix 3.2 with enhanced security is not working.
I believe this issue was resolved in beta 13.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 200 from  Alvaro Fdez Lago <alago@galeno.unicies.cesga.es> reports 
success building beta-12 without changes. This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 230 from Jon Madison <jm@goldendome.com> reports successful compilation
of beta 12 on IRIX 6.2 without changes.  This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 245 from Kevin Hoffer <kevinh@goldnetpub.goldnetpub.com> didn't read
the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in /etc/inetd.conf in order to
get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 258 from Michael E Quan <michael@ns1.envy.com> appears to be another
person who didn't read the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in 
/etc/inetd.conf in order to get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the 
various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 259 from <root@avatar.ml.org> appears to be another person who didn't 
read the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in /etc/inetd.conf in order 
to get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 261 from Jon Madison <jm@goldendome.com> reports successful complilation
of beta 13 on IRIX 6.2 without changes.  This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 268 from Andrew R. Orndorff <andrew.orndorff@dotnews.nhtsa.dot.gov>
offered some patches for AIX, but never sent them. I have closed this ticket.
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 273 from Usuario-Moisis <mnavarro@ibm.aecoc.es> wants to know how
to use BISON in place of YACC on AIX. I don't know. I have to close this
ticket. Maybe someone else can help him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 278 from Ignacio de Cordoba <icordoba@skios.es> is having problems
getting "ls" and "dir" to work, which is a common problem that usually 
involves properly setting up the environment. It is not a wu-ftpd problem.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 280 from Hannu Laurila <Hannu.Laurila@japo.fi> illustrates a common
misconception about the use of a dash as the first character in a password.
This is a feature to turn off extended messages. If the user has a dash as the
first character of his/her password, then that dash must be preceeded with
another dash as an "escape" character to insure that the password is correctly
understood. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 291 from Sergio Javier Klarreich <docbrown@impsat1.com.ar> appeared to
just be a pleasant greeting. It does not appear to report a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 296 from Jim Easton <jim@cs.ualberta.ca> bet a month's salary that
there was an alias on my development platforms  for cc. He was wrong, but
I asked him to give the money to charity. I don't know if he did.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 318 from John R. Long <johnr@pacificnet.net> illustrates a common
misconception about the use of a dash as the first character in a password.
This is a feature to turn off extended messages. If the user has a dash as the
first character of his/her password, then that dash must be preceeded with
another dash as an "escape" character to insure that the password is correctly
understood. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 321 from Are Bryne <are@communique.no> asked a variety of questions
about the upload directive in ftpaccess. I have answered him in private mail.
This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 324 from Johannes Ruscheinski <ruschein@marge.cyber-dyne.com> offered 
some patches for Linux, but never sent them. I have closed this ticket. 
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 331 from Emil Isberg <cel95eig@mds.mdh.se> noted that he was having
no problems with beta-13 on Solaris 2.5 or 2.5.1.This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages. Also, beta-14 is the first
release of the server to be tested by me on Solaris 2.5.1, so it will be
the first one for which I can accept bug reports with any hopes of reproducing
it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 351 from <root@sucuri.amazon.com.br> is trying to setup "guestgroup" 
and has apparently failed to do so. I have directed him to the FAQ and have
heard nothing more from him. So, I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 352 & 353 from Frank Winkler <winkler@ira.uka.de> is trying to setup 
the server on Solaris, but apparently does not have all the devices and
shared libaries in place to make it possible for "ls" to work. I suggested
some things for him to investigate, but have heard nothing further. I am
closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 363 from Gary Mills <mills@cc.UManitoba.CA> is complaining about
about the use of a dash as the first character in a password being used to
turn off extended messages. Since this feature has been part of the server
long before I took over maintenance, I am not going to change the behavior
in this release. That's just the way it has to be. If the folks on the
mailing list can come up with a better solution that we can implement in
a future release, I am willing to consider it, but not for release 2.4.2
or 2.4.3. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 366 from Paul Whittenburg <paul@obs.net> offers some documentation
fixes for the ftpaccess page but never sent them. I have closed this ticket. 
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 367 from Jun-ichiro Itoh <itojun@itojun.org> reported a problem with
an extra %s in a printf that was in beta 12 but fixed in beta 13. This ticket
is closed.

Subject: chroot problem after using vipw 
X-Mts: smtp
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

On DUNIX V4.0B and FTP server Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-12]  
I modified a user's name in /etc/passwd using vipw
and from then on for this and for every newly added user the chroot
seems to fail. 
For them using "pwd" the whole path of the whole system is visible 
instead of only subtrees inside the "should be effective" user's 
root directory.
All the older in /etc/passwd not modified user accounts are o.k.
and the one modified did also work fine before.

For example in /etc/passwd:

ok     -->>   user1:...   :/export/ftp/./pub/user1:...
not ok -->>   usermod:... :/export/ftp/./pub/usermod:...
not ok -->>   useradd:... :/export/ftp/./pub/useradd:...


Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

Please forgive what is probably an ObQ -- I'm a newbie to this list. Is
it possible to set usernames on a virtual ftp server that:

    1) aren't in the real /etc/passwd file, and
    2) may be duplicated across other virtual ftp servers but relate to
different users?

I've read the FAQ and the "Setting up guest accounts..." document and
didn't get the answer I was hoping for.

The latter document seems to imply that the entry must both be in the
/etc/passwd and ~virtualserver/etc/passwd files. Is this true? Or is
there some new technique about that'll enable wu-ftpd to do what I want?

Regards,

In addition:

The user accounts I wrote of are Guest accounts with upload permission
They all have entries in ftpaccess and they are able to upload.
But when the modified user issues 'pwd' he gets:
/export/ftp/pub/usermod instead of /pub/usermod what it did before 
modification. Modification will say: I renamed user2 to usermod in passwd 
file and made the changes also in ftpaccess file. Since then usermod has 
the above mentioned problem and the new user useradd too. 

The names in these examples are fictional:

In /etc/passwd:

user1:blabla:111:100:works fine:/export/ftp/./pub/user1:/etc/ftponly
usermod:blublu:112:100:name was modified:/export/ftp/./pub/usermod:/etc/ftponly
useradd:huhuhu:113:100:newly added:/export/ftp/./pub/useradd:/ftponly


In ftpaccess:
upload  /export/ftp  /export/ftp/pub/user1    yes user1 exp 755 dirs
upload  /export/ftp  /export/ftp/pub/usermod  yes usermod  exp 755 dirs
upload  /export/ftp  /export/ftp/pub/useradd  yes useradd  exp 755 dirs

	Apparently it's possible to do this using tcp_wrappers
	the 'chroot' command, and any ftpd.

	Some mail I got from Wietse Venema points out that any
	service can be redirected (via the twist command) according
	to which IP alias the packets are destined.  (The usual
	use of tcpd is to base the access controls and twists on
	the *source* IP address -- but it supports a syntax for
	the *destination* as well).

	I've never sat down and fought with this to figure out
	what the exact incantations are.  However I think it will
	do what you want -- you do the chroot *before* launching
	ftpd (any ftpd -- wu or vendor supplied).  This will cause
	the ftpd to authenticate against the /etc/passwd (and 
	possibly the /etc/shadow) in this chroot environment.  
	Your ftpd might be configured to chroot *again* (after 
	authentication).

		/
		/etc/	-- hosts.allow with tcpd "twist"
			-- "real passwd file"
		/chroot1/
			/etc	-- passwd file for virtual host 1
			/ftpchroot
				/etc -- fake passwd for ftpd and ls
				/usr/bin -- just ls (gzip, etc)
				/pub
		/chroot2/
			/etc	-- passwd file for virtual host 2

	I realize that this appears to use alot of disk space.  
	You can use *hard* links (NOT symlinks) between the different 
	virtual trees -- so long as the exist on the same file systems 
	(under the same mount points).  Normally you'll have to create the 
	directories and link the files (hard links to directories are 
	normally reserved for just the ".." (parent) entries of each 
	subdirectories -- normally you can't make multiple "downward" 
	hard links to a directory).

	I hope this helps.  

	If anyone else here as actually used tcpd's "virtual host/twist"
	option (with ftp or any other service) I'd love to see a 
	working example of the hosts.allow and other related files.

Interesting... I used "authenticate()" call to make wu-ftpd work with DCE but 
I believe this call exists only in AIX. This approach seems to be more 
portable. Couple of questions:

- Will it work in a mixed DCE / local user environment?
- What happens to credentials files in /var/dce/security/creds after logout? 
On a busy system that directory will become full very quickly.

Thanks,

Alexey

I send the mail below the last week and I could resolv the problem but I'm
not sure that is ok.
I had istalled wu-ftpd in a linux slackware 3.1 kernel 2.0.0 from march
distribution, I saw that all was as guest-howto say, so I tought that the
problem was in ls, so I copied the ls from the distribution of dicember
and happened the same ,with ls I couldn't see the files, so I copied in
/home/user/bin the ls from a old distribution that I was in another
computer (linux slackware 3.0 kernel 1.2.13) and now I can see the file, I
don't understand what is happening.
Why I need to copy a old ls in a new distribution to get see the files
with ls in a sesion of ftp???

I need your help

thanks in advance


------------------------------------------------------------------------
this is the mail that I send 


hello!!!

I had installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13

User chroot()s correctly, but cannot see any of the files or directories.

when I do

ftp server_name I can see

Remote system type is UNIX
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp>ls

and I can see the files of my directory, but I can get it if I know the
name of the file and I can put any file but I can see the files with ls

I say that chroot() is correctly because if I do for example
ftp>cd /etc
550 /etc: No such file or directory
ftp>cd /usr
550 /usr: No such file or directory
ftp>get /etc/passwd
550 /etc/passwd: No such file or directory


Please can anyone help me???

The old ls is probably statically linked.  The guest howto has more
details on this.

Also, check your bin, dev, lib files carefully.  I found in one
installation that I had typed 'Zero' instead of 'zero' when creating the
dev files,  and the only symptom was that 'ls' was producing no output upon
FTP login to the guest account (using WS_FTP).

I think that's true.

Currently, it only uses DCE, and fails if there is no valid DCE account for
the user. However, it could be easily modified to fall back to standard
Unix authentication on DCE failure.

They're purged when the connection closes, so there shouldn't be any
abandoned credentials unless the session terminated abnormally.

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


CLOSED-TICKETS (BETA 14)

This note contains a summary of all tickets closed before the release of beta 
14. Most of these were not bug reports. Some are questions that were
answered in the documentation or the various FAQs. Some were bug reports
about previous beta releases that have already been fixed in the latest
beta (13). A few were complaints about some fundamental design decisions
made when wu-ftpd was created. Some were questions I did answer and have
closed. Some were notes about successful compliations of beta 13 or beta 12
on platforms to which I have not access. Some were offers of patches that
never materialized.

In any case, they are all closed. They are not relevant to beta 14 or any
future release. If you don't see that your ticket number is mentioned here
and it was not mentioned as being a closed ticket or bug fix in the beta 13
distribution, you should assume it is open. Some of these open tickets will 
be closed as bug fixes. A few will remain open as they are feature 
enhancements. These feature enhancements will be discussed on this list
when I am ready to start outlining the details of release 2.5.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 7 from Fredrik Nyman <ice@sled.gsfc.nasa.gov> concerns problems
making the ftpaccess file work on IRIX 5.3. I can't reproduce this since
I don't have access to IRIX and other who do don't report this as being
a problem. My guess is that there is no "-a" at the end of the /etc/inetd.conf
line for starting ftpd. [I should have closed this sooner, but didn't.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 39 from Nathan Neulinger <nneul@umr.edu> concerns a problem
with signal 10 aborts on HP/UX. I believe this problem was fixed in beta 13.
I am closing this ticket since I can't reproduce his problem without access
to HP/UX.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 48 from Scott Mulligan <mulligan@apple.com> was a request to
talk to me about something. We never made contact. He didn't acknowledge
my followup message. I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 68 from <ftpmaster@hol.gr> was not a bug report but a request for
more assistance in understanding how virtual ftp support works on wu-ftpd.
This ticket is closed since it is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 99 from  Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offered some 
suggeestions for the configuration of wu-ftpd on Digital Unix. These changes
were already included in beta 13. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 101 from ian@sco.com askes about the use of "user@" and "user@host"
conventions for anonymous ftp. This is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 116 from James Ford <jford@ua1ix.ua.edu> offers to compile wu-ftpd
on some AIX machines. This is not a bug report. However, I would welcome
any reports concerning AIX compliations.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 127, 171 & 240 from Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offers to 
compile wu-ftpd on Digital Unix 4.0. This is not a bug report. However, I 
would welcome any reports concerning Digital Unix compliations. So, Becki,
go ahead and compile away. Send me a report after you do it.

Ticket 128 from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <root@startrek.in-trier.de> reports
that ftpaccess is not being seen on Linux. However, he does not provide
any information concerning the /etc/inetd.conf line for starting ftpd.
Since I can't reproduce this bug on Linux, this ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 148 from Ian Willis <ian@sco.com> suggested a modification for Beta 12 
that was already added, but I apparently didn't notice his ticket until this 
go round. Since this issue has been addressed, the ticket is closed. [The 
change was specific for SCO 5 and concerned defining SIGURG as SIGUSR1.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 150 from sroberts@smtpgwy.isinet.com offers to compile wu-ftpd
on some AIX machines. This is not a bug report. However, I would welcome
any reports concerning AIX compliations.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 151 from marekm@i17linuxb.ists.pwr.wroc.pl (Marek Michalkiewicz)
reported a bug in Virtual Root processing that has been fixed prior to beta 
14 release. The bug in attempting to reuse space allocated to pw->pw-dir
instead of freeing and resizing it to a size that can hold the virtual root
directory. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 176 from Danielle Hopkins <dani@itd.adelaide.edu.au> report that
compiling beta 12 on Digital Unix 3.2 with enhanced security is not working.
I believe this issue was resolved in beta 13.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 200 from  Alvaro Fdez Lago <alago@galeno.unicies.cesga.es> reports 
success building beta-12 without changes. This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 202 from  Andrew Maltsev <am@px.f1.ru> reported the duplicate printf
selector when a bad shell reply was going to be made. This was fixed before
beta-14 and is now closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 213 from Randall J. Wormser <nrjw@chevron.com> didn't read
the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in /etc/inetd.conf in order to
get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 230 from Jon Madison <jm@goldendome.com> reports successful compilation
of beta 12 on IRIX 6.2 without changes.  This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 245 from Kevin Hoffer <kevinh@goldnetpub.goldnetpub.com> didn't read
the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in /etc/inetd.conf in order to
get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 258 from Michael E Quan <michael@ns1.envy.com> appears to be another
person who didn't read the NOTES file concerning the use of "-a" in 
/etc/inetd.conf in order to get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the 
various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 259 from <root@avatar.ml.org> appears to be another person who didn't

to get ftpd to use the ftpaccess file and the various enhancements.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 261 from Jon Madison <jm@goldendome.com> reports successful complilation
of beta 13 on IRIX 6.2 without changes.  This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 268 from Andrew R. Orndorff <andrew.orndorff@dotnews.nhtsa.dot.gov>
offered some patches for AIX, but never sent them. I have closed this ticket.
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 273 from Usuario-Moisis <mnavarro@ibm.aecoc.es> wants to know how
to use BISON in place of YACC on AIX. I don't know. I have to close this
ticket. Maybe someone else can help him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 278 from Ignacio de Cordoba <icordoba@skios.es> is having problems
getting "ls" and "dir" to work, which is a common problem that usually 
involves properly setting up the environment. It is not a wu-ftpd problem.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 280 from Hannu Laurila <Hannu.Laurila@japo.fi> illustrates a common
misconception about the use of a dash as the first character in a password.
This is a feature to turn off extended messages. If the user has a dash as the
first character of his/her password, then that dash must be preceeded with
another dash as an "escape" character to insure that the password is correctly
understood. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 291 from Sergio Javier Klarreich <docbrown@impsat1.com.ar> appeared to
just be a pleasant greeting. It does not appear to report a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 296 from Jim Easton <jim@cs.ualberta.ca> bet a month's salary that
there was an alias on my development platforms  for cc. He was wrong, but
I asked him to give the money to charity. I don't know if he did.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 318 from John R. Long <johnr@pacificnet.net> illustrates a common
misconception about the use of a dash as the first character in a password.
This is a feature to turn off extended messages. If the user has a dash as the
first character of his/her password, then that dash must be preceeded with
another dash as an "escape" character to insure that the password is correctly

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 321 from Are Bryne <are@communique.no> asked a variety of questions
about the upload directive in ftpaccess. I have answered him in private mail.
This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 324 from Johannes Ruscheinski <ruschein@marge.cyber-dyne.com> offered 
some patches for Linux, but never sent them. I have closed this ticket. 
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 331 from Emil Isberg <cel95eig@mds.mdh.se> noted that he was having
no problems with beta-13 on Solaris 2.5 or 2.5.1.This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages. Also, beta-14 is the first
release of the server to be tested by me on Solaris 2.5.1, so it will be
the first one for which I can accept bug reports with any hopes of reproducing
it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 351 from <root@sucuri.amazon.com.br> is trying to setup "guestgroup" 
and has apparently failed to do so. I have directed him to the FAQ and have
heard nothing more from him. So, I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 352 & 353 from Frank Winkler <winkler@ira.uka.de> is trying to setup 
the server on Solaris, but apparently does not have all the devices and
shared libaries in place to make it possible for "ls" to work. I suggested
some things for him to investigate, but have heard nothing further. I am
closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 363 from Gary Mills <mills@cc.UManitoba.CA> is complaining about
about the use of a dash as the first character in a password being used to
turn off extended messages. Since this feature has been part of the server
long before I took over maintenance, I am not going to change the behavior
in this release. That's just the way it has to be. If the folks on the
mailing list can come up with a better solution that we can implement in
a future release, I am willing to consider it, but not for release 2.4.2
or 2.4.3. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 366 from Paul Whittenburg <paul@obs.net> offers some documentation
fixes for the ftpaccess page but never sent them. I have closed this ticket. 
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 367 from Jun-ichiro Itoh <itojun@itojun.org> reported a problem with
an extra %s in a printf that was in beta 12 but fixed in beta 13. This ticket
is closed.

I am getting this problem.  If I reboot the server the 
difficulty goes away and dir works as expected.  Does anyone 
have any clue as to what is going on?  The are no "hung" ftp 
processes if I do a ps -ef so I have no idea what is causing 
this.  It has happened at least once before.

Please reply directly as well as to the list.

Hello.

What we are trying to establish, is, to have each one of our users be 
chrooted to their home directory when FTPing onto our box. The problem
is 
space confindment. We have over 3000 users and it would require about
1/2 
meg, in each $HOME dir to set up the "~/bin/ls" ( and any other
executable 
needed ) so they would be able to view the contens of their directory.

We have tried makeing a symbolic link to ls but once chrooted, the user 
would not be able to use "ls" bc the symbolic link would not cross the 
chroot directory. 

We have tried hard linking the ls but that to increase disk space. 

We have tried to put the user $HOME dir underneath (above ? -> format: 
/home/ftp/$HOME ) the anonymous ftp directory tree. Made the proper 
changes in the etc/passwd 
( user:passwd:uid:gid:geco:/home/./ftp/$HOME:shell )
to allow access, once chrooted, to the ls needed ( in /home/ftp/bin )
but that did not seem to work.

Is there any way we can allow our users to use "ls" ( plus other 
executables ) without having to "cp" or hard linking the executables in 
question in their $HOME directory ???


thanks in advance

Someone out there has a "built-in ls" patch..  but I didn't know about it
when I was facing the same problem as you are.  In my case I have -way- too
many users for links to be a reasonable option.  So what I did was get the
gnu ls source, change the name of main() to ls_main(), and modify the gnu
makefile to build just the libraries it needs and ls.o, but not the
executable.  I link the result into ftpd.  In popen.c, I put in a test just
before the exec.  If it's /bin/ls, I call ls_main() instead of exec.  Works
like a charm.  One caveat- you must add -n to the list of ls options in
ftpd.c, or ls acts very erratic when it can't find /etc/passwd.

CLOSED-TICKETS (BETA 14)

This note contains a summary of all tickets closed before the release of beta 
14. Most of these were not bug reports. Some are questions that were
answered in the documentation or the various FAQs. Some were bug reports
about previous beta releases that have already been fixed in the latest
beta (13). A few were complaints about some fundamental design decisions
made when wu-ftpd was created. Some were questions I did answer and have
closed. Some were notes about successful compliations of beta 13 or beta 12
on platforms to which I have not access. Some were offers of patches that
never materialized.

In any case, they are all closed. They are not relevant to beta 14 or any
future release. If you don't see that your ticket number is mentioned here
and it was not mentioned as being a closed ticket or bug fix in the beta 13
distribution, you should assume it is open. Some of these open tickets will 
be closed as bug fixes. A few will remain open as they are feature 
enhancements. These feature enhancements will be discussed on this list
when I am ready to start outlining the details of release 2.5.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 7 from Fredrik Nyman <ice@sled.gsfc.nasa.gov> concerns problems
making the ftpaccess file work on IRIX 5.3. I can't reproduce this since
I don't have access to IRIX and other who do don't report this as being
a problem. My guess is that there is no "-a" at the end of the /etc/inetd.conf
line for starting ftpd. [I should have closed this sooner, but didn't.]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 9 from Frank Jacquette <ufjacque@king.mcs.drexel.edu> reports a problem
compiling 2.4.2 on AIX. This problem is known to have been addressed on or
before beta 13 so this ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 39 from Nathan Neulinger <nneul@umr.edu> concerns a problem
with signal 10 aborts on HP/UX. I believe this problem was fixed in beta 13.
I am closing this ticket since I can't reproduce his problem without access
to HP/UX.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 48 from Scott Mulligan <mulligan@apple.com> was a request to
talk to me about something. We never made contact. He didn't acknowledge
my followup message. I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 68 from <ftpmaster@hol.gr> was not a bug report but a request for
more assistance in understanding how virtual ftp support works on wu-ftpd.
This ticket is closed since it is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 99 from  Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offered some 
suggeestions for the configuration of wu-ftpd on Digital Unix. These changes
were already included in beta 13. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 101 from Ian Willis <ianw@sco.com> askes about the use of "user@" and 
"user@host" conventions for anonymous ftp. This is not a bug report.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 116 from James Ford <jford@ua1ix.ua.edu> offers to compile wu-ftpd
on some AIX machines. This is not a bug report. However, I would welcome
any reports concerning AIX compliations.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 127, 171 & 240 from Becki Kain <beckers@josephus.furph.com> offers to 
compile wu-ftpd on Digital Unix 4.0. This is not a bug report. However, I 
would welcome any reports concerning Digital Unix compliations. So, Becki,
go ahead and compile away. Send me a report after you do it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 128 from Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <root@startrek.in-trier.de> reports
that ftpaccess is not being seen on Linux. However, he does not provide
any information concerning the /etc/inetd.conf line for starting ftpd.

compiling beta 12 on Digital Unix 3.2 with enhanced security is not working.
I believe this issue was resolved in beta 13.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 200 from  Alvaro Fdez Lago <alago@galeno.unicies.cesga.es> reports 
success building beta-12 without changes. This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 202 from  Andrew Maltsev <am@px.f1.ru> reported the duplicate printf
selector when a bad shell reply was going to be made. This was fixed before
beta-14 and is now closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ticket 278 from Ignacio de Cordoba <icordoba@skios.es> is having problems

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 280 from Hannu Laurila <Hannu.Laurila@japo.fi> illustrates a common
misconception about the use of a dash as the first character in a password.
This is a feature to turn off extended messages. If the user has a dash as the
first character of his/her password, then that dash must be preceeded with
another dash as an "escape" character to insure that the password is correctly

Ticket 331 from Emil Isberg <cel95eig@mds.mdh.se> noted that he was having
no problems with beta-13 on Solaris 2.5 or 2.5.1.This is not a bug report, but
I do appreciate getting these types of messages. Also, beta-14 is the first
release of the server to be tested by me on Solaris 2.5.1, so it will be
the first one for which I can accept bug reports with any hopes of reproducing
it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 351 from <root@sucuri.amazon.com.br> is trying to setup "guestgroup" 
and has apparently failed to do so. I have directed him to the FAQ and have
heard nothing more from him. So, I am closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tickets 352 & 353 from Frank Winkler <winkler@ira.uka.de> is trying to setup 
the server on Solaris, but apparently does not have all the devices and

some things for him to investigate, but have heard nothing further. I am
closing this ticket.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 363 from Gary Mills <mills@cc.UManitoba.CA> is complaining about
about the use of a dash as the first character in a password being used to
turn off extended messages. Since this feature has been part of the server
long before I took over maintenance, I am not going to change the behavior
in this release. That's just the way it has to be. If the folks on the
mailing list can come up with a better solution that we can implement in
a future release, I am willing to consider it, but not for release 2.4.2
or 2.4.3. This ticket is closed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 366 from Paul Whittenburg <paul@obs.net> offers some documentation
fixes for the ftpaccess page but never sent them. I have closed this ticket. 
However, I do hope he will send the patches along.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 367 from Jun-ichiro Itoh <itojun@itojun.org> reported a problem with
an extra %s in a printf that was in beta 12 but fixed in beta 13. This ticket

We did the following:

/home/some-customer
/home/some-other
/home/lib
/home/bin
/home/etc

...

We then chrooted them to /home and used the ACL feature in solaris...
thus they can't change to anyone else's directories in /home, and they
can't fiddle in the real /bin /usr/bin etc...

man getfacl and man setfacl I belive.

Also check for "acl" on www.sun.com's web site

That probably means the homedir you declared in the password file for

Sorry, it is just not ready. I won't release it until it is ready. Believe me
I want to release it, but not until I think it is ready.

Next target date is the 16th. Two pre-releases have been rolled out, and they
are looking ok. I still have a few dozen tickets to process, but the main
bug fixes are integrated now.

          **Trying to view WU-ftpd guest accounts directories**

I have setup guest accounts on my server, but I have trouble viewing the

files.
It seems as though everything is working perfectly until the "LIST"
command
is issued (/bin/ls).  Then, I receive a message from my FTP software
(Reflections FTP (client)) displaying "Unable to get server files: The
request
timed out"

Any suggestions on solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.  I

am using a
SUN Netra with Solaris 2.5.1

Thank You in advance

Howdy.  This is a relatively simple question but I can't seem to find any
documentation that explains the process.

One of our clients has a 1400-user alpha running OSF that is set up as a
non-shell machine with FTP only for web pages.  A couple of his users have
recently come on (and been kicked off) for FTPing in and going "prowling"
(his words) through the system, downloading the /etc/passwd file, looking
at logs, etc.

Since shadowing the password file on a system that is already running is
largely an exercise in hair loss (at least it would explain mine), the
client was looking for a replacement ftpd that will lock people into their
own directories and keep them from "prowling".

Can wu-ftpd do this?  And if so, what's the trick for getting it working?
I assume it's by some use of the chroot command, but after that, the
configuration fails.

Thanks for your help

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

Yes, WU-FTPd CAN do this.  Read the documentation, but the trick is a /./
in the passwd file.

Yes but what will that do for the actual web stuff for that user..  

IE::


/bbsusers/<<username>/public-html 



By default if a use ris ftping into his account his route SHOULD be 

/bbsusers/<<username> and thats is this way it should not screw up the 

WWW dir

          **Trying to view WU-ftpd guest accounts directories**

I have setup guest accounts on my server, but I have trouble viewing the
files.
It seems as though everything is working perfectly until the "LIST"
command is issued (/bin/ls).  Then, I receive a message from my FTP
software
(Reflections FTP (client)) displaying "Unable to get server files: The
request timed out"

Any suggestions on solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.  I

am using a SUN Netra with Solaris 2.5.1

Thank You in advance

Your external 'ls' is messed up.  See the available docs and the guest
howto for more info on how to set it up.

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

Is it possible to hide dot files with wu-ftpd ?
Does anybody  know of any software for mirroring ftp sites ?

Bonjour a tous!
Hello all!

well I have just installed the beta13 version on my AIX 4.1.4 and it works well except that  hours and times (displayed by "dir" for instance) are GMT and not NFT-1DFT as the rest of the AIX does.

I tried to copy /etc/environment in ~ftp/etc/environment but it was no success.

I also tried to set TZ in a .profile in ~ftp but it was the same (in fact I did not believe that it could be successful).

Thanks for help....

It sounds to me as if you would like to set up their ftp-sessions just as
with anonymous ftp. There is an option called guestgroup that you can have
a look at in the manpages. If user johan is a member of a guestgroup
(specified in /etc/ftpaccess or similar) the server will perform a
chroot() in that users home directory and make that the "/" dir in the
ftp-session.
Hope this will work for you, it does for me.

I really can't give you any advice here, I can just say that I have had no
problems with the beta-13 which in my knowledge is the latest release.

I just installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2b13-1.i386.rpm and it will not allow normal
system users to login. Anonymous seems to work other than it's constant
complaint about an invalid email address for the password. Any advice?

     Philippe,
     
     Perhaps my experience with wu-ftpd may help out.  The SETPROCTITLE 
     definition causes wu-ftpd to destroy all environmental variables in 
     AIX, including the TZ environment variable.  To get mine to give the 
     correct timestamp, I had to recompile after changing the line that 
     says:
     
        #define SETPROCTITLE
     
     TO

        #undef SETPROCTITLE

     
     I'm assuming that beta 13 will behave the same. 

     Hope this helps....

Bonjour a tous!
Hello all!
     
well I have just installed the beta13 version on my AIX 4.1.4 and it works well
 except that  hours and times (displayed by "dir" for instance) are GMT and not 
 NFT-1DFT as the rest of the AIX does.
     
I tried to copy /etc/environment in ~ftp/etc/environment but it was no success.
     
I also tried to set TZ in a .profile in ~ftp but it was the same (in fact I did
 not believe that it could be successful).
     
Thanks for help....

I am trying to set up an anonymous ftp on my machine, I have followed the
instructions in the wu-ftp FAQ, but I couldn't get in as the anonymous
user, it returned the following error:

	530 User anonymous unknown.
	Login failed.

I have specified in my ftpaccess file that any machine (*) can access
the ftp directory.  Thanks in advance for your help.

I can't get file conversions to work either.

Has anyone gotten this working on linux on

Hi,  I've got two questions.

First, is anyone else using redhat linux on a DEC alpha unit?

My problem is that ftpd doesn't log anything except
FTP logins, refusals, and logouts.  It used to.
This is true for both anonymous and root logins.

I've got the following lines in my ftpaccess file:

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

I've tried picking up the latest source, but it won't
compile and run using the standard Makefile.lnx.

have just set-up wu-ftpd-2.4 under Solaris2.5.1.

the 'dir' command does not seem to work for anonymous users,
only for regular users.  'ls' works fine for both.

any ideas?  have the same config under Solaris2.4 w/o any problems.

Please reply directly.

Your external 'ls' is not working right.  The INSTALL doc mentions some
about this, and the guest howto covers it more in depth.

Check your permissions on the /bin in the ftproot (should be 111) and the
same goes for the programs in the /bin dir, such as ls, gzip, tar...
Also you could try another ftpclient that is a bit more verbose in error
messages, try ftp localhost on that SUN you have.

Hi,

I've a new user of wu-ftpd. I built an older version and could successfully
configure it with the ftpaccess file.

I've now upgraded to wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13 and can't get ftpd to read
the ftpaccess file. Things like ftpusers work fine.
I'm sure the path to the file is correct.

I'm on Dec Alpha OSF 3.2
Has anybody seen a similar problem ?

Thanks
Regards

Once again, I am pushing back the release. I have done some more integration
and still need to do more. 

However, I think these changes will be worth the wait. I am feeling pretty
good that this will be the release once the beta period (following the beta
release) is over.

The new date is July 30.

That is strange... We had this problem with the old wu-ftpd 2.4, but beta13 
fixed it. We have TZ set in /etc/environment only.

Specify -a as an argument in inetd.conf.  This is listed in one of the
README's as well as listed multiple times in the closed tickets.  By
default wu-ftpd does not read the ftpaccess file.  This is a change from
before.

Hmm, seems I subscribed just a tad too late, as I have the same problem, 
and I missed the thread.

Does this list have an archive site ? (preferably a searchable one)

Hello,

I have a machine that was just completely rebuilt and has a -fresh install- of solaris 2.5.1 on it.

I attempted to setup an anon ftp server on it using its standard ftp daemon, to no avail.

When an anonymous user logged in and tried to get a directory listing, the server would just send back the error:
"425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number."

I then read the man file on it cover to cover and set the anon ftp directory up as suggested...copying libs...changing permissions, etc.

STILL get the same error.

Then i go and get the best ftp daemon I know of...wu-ftp (2.4) and install it.

I get the same error.

So I read the INSTALL file's section on anonymous ftp. I set it up as told, same error.

I even spend an hour compiling a static version of 'ls' to put in ~/ftp/bin

no dice...

suggestions?

one note to make...i previously had the anon ftp server running on a sun 4.1.3 machine, never had a single problem with it.

and 'regular' ftp does work on the solaris 2.5.1 box, just not anonymous. (the ip of it is 206.165.79.2)

Dear ,

I am using happily the academ ftp, beta 13. I found a problem that may be
common to more users.

I use the group feature, and is working fine on a Solaris machine - making a
chroot correctly. But if I forget to include this user on the /etc/group
file , the crhroot doesn't work anymore, giving the user access to all the
filesystem. In the original wu-ftpd program this was not happening - the
access was denied.

This is the third major version in prototyping extended virtual hosting support.
There will be no more major revisions.  At this point I am only taking bug 
reports and portability changes.  Once those are completed I will be sending 
the final changes to Stan for incorporation into a future release.

This version handles all the requests that I've received other than merging 
config files.  Merging has too many drawbacks for the benefits received. This
version is simple to understand and manage.  It has an additional plus to it.
If you are currently using the Virtual Hosting support in the baselined 
beta-13 version, you will NOT HAVE TO CHANGE A THING if you don't need the 
expanded virtual host support.  Your existing ftpaccess file will work 
correctly. (It slices, it dices, it makes jullian fries! Sorry Perry... 
Beat you to it. ;) )

This version provides two different means for supporting virtual hosting.
You can use the existing "virtual" directive support or you can use the 
extended virtual support by having completely different ftpaccess files 
or any mixture of both. 

If you have multiple domains that need to be setup in extremely similar
fashions then place "virtual" (root/banner/logfile) directives in the master 
ftpaccess file.  All other directives in the master ftpaccess file will be 
shared globally across all listed virtual servers.  

If you have virtual domains that need to do things different, create a 
separate ftpaccess for those specific domains to provide individual support 
for all ftpaccess directives.  For each virtual domain that you want to 
support, you have the option to create an ftpaccess file specific for that 
domain. This will override completely what you have in the master ftpaccess 
file.  This file must contain all directives you wish used. If you do not 
create an ftpaccess file for a specific domain, the domain will use the 
appropriate "virtual" directives in the master ftpaccess file.  

Additionally, the ftpusers, ftpgroups, ftphosts and ftpconversions files can 
all be specified on a per-domain basis.  You have the ability to override the
master WU-FTPD config files with a local copy specific to that domain. If you
do not wish to place a copy of one or all files listed above in the virtual
host directory for that specific host then the master copy is used. 

Newer copies of ftpck and ftpshut/ftprestart are also included in the 
newvirt-030.tar.gz distribution.  These versions are not currently available 
in the Resource Center but should be soon.

Subject: dir problem with wu-ftp 2.4
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Hello!

I am experiencing a big problem/confusion.

I have wu-ftpd 2.4 installed on SunOS using all the regular settings in 
the ftpaccess file. Whenever the customer ftps in his directory is chrooted.
There is a comlete and nessesary structure within that chrooted directory":

drwxrwxr-x  7 mark     staff         512 Jul 18 12:37 ./
drwxrwxr-x 41 root     httpadmi     1536 Jul 20 13:50 ../
dr-xr-xr-x  2 root     ftpadmin      512 Feb  5 12:38 bin/
dr-xr-xr-x  2 root     ftpadmin      512 Jul 18 11:42 dev/
dr-xr-xr-x  2 root     ftpadmin      512 Jul 18 12:41 etc/
dr-xr-xr-x  3 root     ftpadmin      512 Feb  5 13:43 usr/
drwxr-xr-x  2 mark     ftptest       512 Jul 18 17:16 www.i3net.com/

the actual copy of the reglar and working ftp acct.
BUT! when FTP connection is established the dir() command does not work:

230 User mark logged in.  Access restrictions apply.
ftp> dir
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.
ftp>

it doesn't give any mistake, but it doesn't display any files either.
Since dir() doesn't work all my clients with windows ftp programms do not 
get the list of their files when they ftp in. They are all able to upload 
or download a file if the exact name is specified.

I have the latest gnu ls() inside that /bin directory and all other needed
files in usr/lib/

Please help ASAP.
Thank you.

Your external 'ls' is goofed up for some reason, either libraries,
or devices, or something.  See the guest howto and the FAQ for more info.
(below)

You really should consider upgrading to the latest beta for both security
and bug fix reason.

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

Hi all,

Am have exactly the same problem. What ls are you using, the standard OS
one or the fileutils. Am using the fileutils-3.15.gz  It works fine with
ls only but not with ls -l which is what the windows uses. I have read
the FAQ etc, but havn't really seen anything on this. I have got a new
version of fileutils-3.16.gz, I'll try those and see. 

Any further advice would be welcomed  :-)

Danny

I am using fileutils-3.16.gz
No progress... 
However, one of the suggestions that i have got are about the libraries 
in /usr/lib.
I have ld.so and libc.so.1.9

If that is not enough where do I get missing?
Thank you.

   A How-To Guide for wu-ftpd on Solaris 2.5.x 

     Darci L. Chapman <minerva@teleport.com> has written a
     targeted document for the Solaris 2.5.x environment. 
     Extremely useful.

Hmm. Development facilities ? gcc only I'll bet. ;-)

It's probably best to first build and debug the setup on a development
machine and then move it to the netra.

Hello ,

I recently installed wu-ftpd on an SGI Irix 5.3 server and 
I have found that it is listing files with the GMT and not the Local time
stamp (Eastern Standard Daylight Savings Time).

WU is probably standardized on GMT. But there is probably
some flag or code that can be modified. 

The only code that I found was the gmtime(); function in ~src/ftpcmd.y or .c
after a build. 
I tried changing it to localtime() but was un-successful.

I have version 2.4.2-beta-13.

Any fix for this...

Thanks,
Jonathan

Recompile with SPT_TYPE set to SPT_NONE.

You may need to copy the appropriate zoneinfo file to the
~ftp/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo directory and the init file to the
~ftp/etc/default/init. Please also read the Solaris man page for in.ftpd(1).

Hi,

I need to setup the upload feature so that guest users can upload files
with certain permissions in one directory structure and different ones
in another, all owned by the user doing the upload.

For example, I want be able to set it up so that when user1 uploads to
/server/execs and any subdirectories that may be created, that file is
owned by user1 and has it's permission set to 0755.  And when user2
uploads to /server/execs and any subdirectories, it will be owned by
user2 and have it's permissions set to 0755.

I know the "upload" directive in the ftpaccess file will allow me to set
permissions for files loaded into specific subdirectories, or *, but I
can't seem to get it set up so that any subdirectories that are created
have the permissions set properly.  For example:

upload /server /exec/user1  yes user1 anongrp 0755
upload /server /exec/user1/*  yes user1 anongrp 0755

will allow user1 to create files with 755 permission in it's chrooted
/exec/user1 directory, and /exec/user1/dir2.  It will not, however,
create a 755 file in /exec/user1/dir2/dir3.

I can't even say:

upload /server  * yes user1 anongrp 0755

because then all files in all directories for all users would be 755 and
owned by user1.

As I have multiple users that must share in the same chrooted home
directory (/server), this is a problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rich

Hi wu-ftpd users:

	How can I get wu-ftpd to log the ip and/or hostname of successful
and/or unsuccessful connections?

	Also, we got quite a few mozilla@ as password.  Is this a standard web
browser entry?

	I am using wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13 on SunOS and SGI IRIX.  I've checked
the FAQ and documentation and didn't see anything about this.

	Your help is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Mona

Hello !
I have a problem with wu-ftpd beta 13 tuning. It seems that it doesn't read
some of the config files, or something. I even tried to put hard compiled-in
paths to them - looks like it doesn't take effect for ftpaccess for instance ...
No greeting messages, no xferlog ... similar on Solaris 2.5.1 and FreeBSD.

Thank you.

Nick.

Make sure you use the -a parameter when calling ftpd from inetd.conf;
otherwise it ignores ftpaccess.

And read the FAQ...http://www.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html .

Did you put -a on the wu-ftpd command line in /etc/inetd.conf? 
/etc/ftpaccess is ignored if you didn't.  See the man page for ftpd.

Look into tcpwrappers; that is an excellent way to put a good control on
who can get in, and all results are logged.  If you don't know what that
is, mail me privately.

Yes.  For a long time the anonymous password was one's email address.  A
couple of years ago people started getting spammed back because of this,
so as an overall privacy issue it was changed to something meaningless.

Pink elephants with an attitude inspired Kent Landfield <kent@landfield.com> to tell garfield.mail.wu-ftpd:

[for some reason I was unsubscribed from wu-ftpd.. I caught up, but wonder
what happened that led to my unsubscription.. can't be that I sent mail
to listmaster about bounces when I sent something to the list n'est ce pas?]

: beta-13 version, you will NOT HAVE TO CHANGE A THING if you don't need the 
: expanded virtual host support.  Your existing ftpaccess file will work 
: correctly. (It slices, it dices, it makes jullian fries! Sorry Perry... 
"but I don't want any of that" [0] :)

: Beat you to it. ;) )
Boo! Hiss! Now I'll have to moan to you about trying to get the old version
to work on FreeBSD and failing miserably because my C knowledge is equal to
Kernighan and Ritchie's combined, when they were about 3 years old that is.
I'll send a patch against beta-13 in unified diff format (as opposed to
whatever format 'differs' is in, that fails to be grokked by patch) and I've
figured out what inet_ntoa wants with 'wrong argument 1' when called from
rdservers.c, line 89 or somewhere over there if I remember correctly.

We now return you to the wonders of inn 1.6b1... sigh..

Are you using the -a option in the inetd.conf file to start your wu-ftpd?  If not, then that is why it isn't reading the ftpaccess file.

Not sure if anyone has reported this or not but here goes...

I was trying to compile wuftp 2.4 on AIX 4.2.0 and got a yacc error when
it's trying to 'yacc ftpcmd.y'.  Come to find out that yacc works different
on AIX 4.2.x than AIX 3.2.5.  The errors are:

     yacc ftpcmd.y
     mv y.tab.c ftpcmd.c
     cc -   cc -O -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support -c ftpcmd.c

      "ftpcmd.y", line 371.18: 1506-045 (S) Undeclared identifier cmdtab.

      "ftpcmd.y", line 383.26: 1506-045 (S) Undeclared identifier sitetab.

      "ftpdcmd.y", line 1057.36: 1506-280 (W) Function argument assignment
between types "void(*) (int)" and "void(*) ()" is not        allowed.

      "ftpcmd.y", line 1519.1: 1506-050 (S) redeclaration of print_groups
differs from previous declaration on line 683 of             "ftpcmd.y".

      "ftpcmd.y", line 1519.1: 1506-050 (I) Return type "void" in
redeclaration is not compatible with the previous return type "int".
      make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.


 Stop.


Anyway, if I rearrange the declarations in ftpcmd.y, then the compile
completes successfully.  The lines with an '*' in front of it are the lines
I rearranged in ftpcmd.y - meaning these lines should be towards the top of
ftpcmd.y

Hi all,

I recently compiled wu-ftp 2.4 on AIX 4.2.0 and started testing it.  I'm
not using the -a flag in inetd.conf because I wanted to see if regular  ftp
would work.  I didn't set up ftpaccess, ftphosts or anything like that.
When I try to enter 'root' or a local account, I'd get the error
     530 User root access denied...
     Login failed

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Thuy

It is probably because you have "root" listed in your "ftpusers" file. 

Giao.

     I'm not sure if this helps, but the wu-ftpd wouldn't allow real users 
     to start an ftp session unless there is an /etc/shells file.  By 
     default, AIX doesn't have this file.
     
     Hope this helps....

I am having difficulty displaying messages for both

their <ftpaccess> file with me as an illustration of this
technique as well as the message(s) stoarage location.

Thanks very much,

Has anyone been able to compile wu-ftpd 2.4 on Solaris 2.5.1

with BIND 8 ?

I have been able to do this with BIND 4.9.5 but not 8.


Thanks

Try to compile it with include and library files derived from bind-8.1.1.

Edit the src/makefiles/Makefile.sol and add the following:
	add "-I/usr/local/bind/include" to the IFLAGS macro;
	add "-L/usr/local/bind/lib" to the LFLAGS macro;
	add "-lbind" to the LIBES macro.

I did that with wu-ftpd 2.4 and it didnt work.  It did work
on wu-ftpd-2.4-academ though.  I didnt check the difference between the
two
yet.

Thanks anyway,

If you are using tcpwrappers, make sure there is a proper entry in
/etc/hosts.allow to allow wu-ftpd in.

You should consider upgrading to the lastest beta version for both bug and
security fixes.  There are other resources below.

I had the same problem a few days, you have to setup up the libs dev
etc, correctly, and it should work with either "ls"

If you use the GUN ls binaries which is how I'm using it you need to
setup the following.

/bin/ls

/dev/zero 		\
/dev/tcp 		 \ These you must create in a special way
/dev/udp 		 / Its described in the FAQ
/dev/ticotsord		/

/usr/lib/ld.so.1 
/usr/lib/libc.so.1
/usr/lib/libdl.so.1

This is what I've installed and its now working.

If you find the original Sun supplied man page ftpd, you will find a
script that is run that will set up the ftp area with all the necessary
files.  The problem is that the wu-ftpd install overwrites the Sun man page.
Hopefully that has been fixed.  The script will fix the dir problem.

I just had the same problem and it turned to be that one
of the libraries in /usr/lib/ was missing. try 
truss (or if you don't have it trace will work, too) /bin/ls
there you would see which libraries it needs.

Hello, 

I originally sent this message to mail.wustl.edu, and since no one at
all responded to it, I assume that that was the wrong address, so here
is a copy of the message sent to wugate.wustl.edu.  Hope this works.

Hi, I am new here. Can anyone point me to where I can find the answer 
to this question?

I want to allow multiple real users to use ftp, each with their own 
password, and each one being put into their own file area, eg:
user1 is put into    /user1/incoming
user2  into            /user2/incoming         etc

Please, wher can I find how to set this up?

This is not a broken list, simply a bad user address and the bounce went back 
to the submitter as well as to the list admins.  I am in the process of working
with WUSTL to have the myself added as an administrator of the list.  They 
suggested it ... and I agreed thinking it might be worth while to take a more 
active role.  They have listed me as one of the listmasters but I have not 
gotten the password needed to manage the list.  (I get the bounces without 
the capability to correct them. ;) ) Hopefully we will link up in the next 
day or so.

Note: The list will still be run out of wustl.edu and no addresses will change.

As a newcomer to the list yesterday, I received about 15 messages
and then posted one of my own ( I need to find how to allow in 
real users, but to have them unable to get out of their own directory)

Now I find there have been no more messages to/from the list?

What happened?

Apologies if lots of others have posted a similar query!

While trying to figure out why a user of SunSITE couldn't do uploads I
found the problem was that any directories they were creating were still
owned by ftp and not the user specified in the ftpaccess upload line.

On checking I found that after files are created fchown() is called to
set the user and group correctly.  This currently is not done after a
mkdir().

The attached patch fixes the problem.

It would also be useful to be able to specify the modes of directories
created by users.  At the moment I tell them to run a chmod after any
mkdir.  This works OK but shouldn't really be necessary.

Hi,

I'm wondering if wu-ftpd has the ability to force only, say, 1k/sec for
each anonymous user ftp'ing out of the server?

Currently it allows full bandwidth for the requesting person, which hogs
the link considerably when many ftp users are in the server ftping files
out.

Thanks.

Michael.

Dug this old message out after talking to my Sun support person the 
other day. He went into the solaris 2.5.1 source code and checked out
the inetd -r option usage. He confirmed it only applies to connectionless
protocols like UDP, not TCP. He has MR'd the inetd man page to make 
this clearer in the future. Has anyone seen the inetd looping error on
Solaris 2.5.1 to cast any doubts on his research?

you have a busy server :-)

on Solaris, and probably others, you can change this interval to
a higher count.

start inetd like this

inetd -r120 60

by default, the man page says 40 per min(-r40 60), grossly
not enough for a busy server.

On SunOS-4.x you have to apply a patch or compile one yourself
You'll find a usable version on GNU(inetutils.tar.gz) or in
the *BSD src.

Subject: virtual IP logging of guests
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Have run into a problem concerning where my guest class logons get logged.
Am successfully using virtual IPs with Beta 12 version to have different
anonymous accounts and log files for different customers. A number of these
same customers have requested guest class accounts as well to give out to
their more priviledged end users. So they give out the same virtual IP address
for their guest class account end users to use. This way all access, whether
guest account or anonymous for this particular customer (virtual IP) gets
logged into the same unique log file.

The problem I have noticed (only in testing so far thank goodness ;-) is
that I can come in with the same customer guest account but use any IP
that is configured for that particular server and of course they gain access
and are chrooted and everything seems OK. But all of their transfer records
are recorded of course based on the IP they used. So if they use the main
IP of the server it goes to the main WUFTPD xferlog, or if they use another
customers virtual IP address it gets logged in that other customers log
xferlog file. I do not want to have to scan every customers log file (as well
as the system wide xferlog file) for potential stray customer transfer records.
The only other solution I could think of was to go back to logging everyone
to the same place, and then just throw a bunch of resources at processing
this single xferlog file :-(

Anybody think or know of a way to keep separate virtual IP logs but still
be able to completely control where your guest class logins get logged?

	Thanx,
	Roger Hanke

Not sure if this helps at all...

I have seen it on SunOS 4.1.3 as a result of a lot of people checking 
email all at once via popperd. I got a patch (replacement) inetd that 
allowed for the -r option and that fixed the problem.

I haven't seen the problem on any of my 2.5.1 boxes although, we aren't 
using them for mail storage...

Hi,

I have recently configured virtual ftp within the ftpaccess file using
wu-ftpd 2.4.2beta12 yet I cannot seem to get ls working. Anonymous logins
can login, can get files within the directory tree etc, yet cannot dir or
ls.

Is there something I am missing here?

Thanks.

Michael.

Does anyone know of a fix for the GMT problem on AIX under "old" 2.4
wu-ftpd other than recompliling the code.  I got the binaries as an
installp from the Bull site, and would really like to avoid the compile
"thing" if I can.

Am running wu-ftpd to restrict clients to specific directories.
restriction works fine; clients can access their own directories, and only
their own directories, but when using a GUI ftp (in our case, either
cuteFTP or Hummingbird Exceed FTP, the files in the user's directory don't
show up.  We can go in via AIX and look at the directory; the files are
there, and are owned by the client, but the client can't see them on
his/her gui display.  Any suggestions?

Hello.

(I am new at sys admin and need help with a wu_ftpd setup.)

I have a question regarding the following.

We have a linux machine whose wu-2.4(4) worked perfectly well under the
2.0.0 kernel.  We recently upgraded the kernel to 2.0.30, leaving the
ftp server intact.  Since then the wu_ftpd recognizes only local accounts,
and no NIS accounts (users).

We also installed a brand-new machine with the 2.0.30 kernel and it has
the same problem.  (Both have the same NIS server).

	What can it be?

Anticipated thanks for your respons!

gunther

I know this has come up before but I just started getting this error
today.  Whenever I have users login through ftp they get 'invalid login'.
Users that come in anon. are able to get in.  Is there a place where I can
get the wu-ftp list archive, or if someone could e-mail me a quick fix for
this problem.

Thank You very much in advance!!

	On the first machine I strongly suspect that you
	updated more than just the kernel.  My guess would be 
	that you're using the Red Hat distribution (currently
	the most popular -- but also the fastest moving).  

	If this is so than you've probably been bitten by some 
	new features that aren't "playing" well with some of you're
	existing software.  Specifically there is a movement on the
	bleeding edge of Linux to adopt the PAM (pluggable authentication
	module) specification (which is also going to be in Solaris 2.6
	-- when it ships in the next couple of days).

	Unfortunately your wu-ftpd doesn't know from PAM. 

	You can sign on to the PAM mailing list and repost your question
	there.  That's at pam-list@redhat.com (although you'd use
	pam-list-request@redhat.com  to sign on or off -- of course).

	I would answer the question more completely if I could.  However
	my experience NIS and NIS+ is far too limited and my experience
	in making it work with PAM is NIL

	Check the execute bit on the directories.  I don't
	know why put I found that Unix and "shell" style ftp
	clients don't care if the execute bit is set so long as
	you have the read bit -- but the some of the Windows GUI

I've got wuftpd running on several machines with a total of about
15k users.  The amount of time it takes for them to log in (ie.
for the user to be authenticated) is about the same as the stock
ftpd that came with our OS.

     I think this is the result of somebody going overboard on
dependencies; I encountered a similar problem when compiling beta 13 for
Linux because my libc.a wasn't in /usr/lib, where the Makefile expected it.
The solution is to simply remove all references to libc_s.a in the
Makefile (at least, that worked for me).

	I guess the external ls is not set up right. GUI clients often use 
	"dir" dommand to get the listing. wuftpd has a build in ls, it can
	be used by the command "ls". Thats why u can see the files on
	a shell client by typing "ls" i guess. Check the Guests-HowTo for
	information about the chroot dir. Probably uve set up the users
	as a guestgroup and its made a chroot in their home dirs by 
	/home/user/./ . Then u may need to make a chroot-dir in each of the 
	users home directorys.

I start wu-ftpd in "inetd.conf" with -a -u 022. Whenever anyone ftp's to
box and creates a directory it's access's are 777. Whenever a file is
created within ftp the access rights are 666.. With the -u 022 on startup,
shouldn't the access right's be 755?   Thanks Jim

     I ran into this problem myself a while back, and came up with the
patch below; it allows you to specify the user/group in upload lines
numerically, by using the string "%NNN" where NNN is the UID/GID.  For
example:

upload /home/ftp /users/a/achurch/incoming yes %501 %100 0600 nodirs

     The patch below is against beta 13, but should apply more or less
cleanly to most versions; and if it doesn't, the changes are still fairly
straightforward.

If you have many "upload" statements, you may want to look at:

Hi all

I'm getting access denied for real users running wu-ftp 2.4 on AIX 4.2.0.
Currently I'm not testing anonymous so inetd.conf does not have any option.
I'm testing with userid 'root' who is using /bin/ksh.  My /etc/shells look
like this

     /bin/csh
     /bin/ksh
     /usr/bin/csh
     /usr/bin/ksh

My /etc/ftpusers file look like this:
     bin
     uucp
     etc
My /usr/local/etc/ftphosts look like this:
     allow *  *

All other wu-ftp related files do not exist.

I retrieved the tigger.itc.virginia.edu:/pub/AIX/wu-ftpd.diffs.txt.gz and
implemented the changes mentioned with the same result of 'access denied'.

Any ideas what is wrong?

Thanks, Thuy

I have just setup wu_ftp on an SGi running irix 6.2.  I can telnet
with a text client and everything seems to be working fine. 
However, when I try to use a GUI client (ws_ftp, cuteFTP) I
cannot see anything listed in the remote files directory.

I can use the client to manually enter a file and it will transfer
and I have full access (write, mkdir etc) to the directory.  I read
the guest howto but I don't see where it would work for a
standard text client and NOT for a GUI client.

Any thoughts?  I have tried several configuration changes to
the GUI client to no avail...

Matt

Dear Managers,
The wu-ftpd 2-4-2Beta is working fine, but the deamon doesn't send the
information to the syslog.
Have I to add specific lines in the syslog.conf ? what are those lines ?

By the way, I have solaris 2.5
Thanks in advance.

well this is a thing that AIX is supposed to do, no ?????

and the ftpd from AIX does use the right timezone!

Hi, 
  I am using Red Hat Linux release 4.1 Kernel 2.0.27
when I ftp to it, if I use ftp or anon. as the user name
I can log in, but if I use the real user account name in /etc/passwd
such as my name steven, the result is:

331 Password required for steven.
Password:

then I input the right password, then..
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.
Remote system type is UNIX
Using binary mode to transfer files
ftp>dir
530 Please login with USER adn PASS.
ftp: bind: Address already in use
ftp>

What's wrong??
I have read a article about this situation, and they say perhaps
the /etc/shells doesn't exist, but on my system, the /etc/shells is OK

I have tried to download wu-ftp source file from WU, and compilt it 
on the system, but there are too many errors, and at last I had to
give it up  :-(

so, anybody can give me some advise about the error? thanX!

steven

My beta13 works fine on AIX 4, and I did nothing special.
Try "ps axewww PID" to see theTZ variable.

Did you install shadow and forget to recompile wu-ftpd for shadow support?

Dear Managers,
I have a large structure of directories under /pub/CEA, I want to permit
uploads in those directory.I wrote in the ftpaccess:

upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  /pub/CEA    yes   root  other  0777 dirs
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  /pub/CEA/*  yes   root  other  0777 dirs
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp/pub/CEA  *   yes   root  other  0777 dirs
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  /incoming/*  yes   ftp  ftp  0555 dirs
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  *           no
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  /bin         no
upload  /services/ftpadm/ftp  /etc         no

but, when I want to upload under /pub/CEA/indics/indexel the access is
denied.
I hope somebody can help me.

Regards.
Silvia.

Hi,

I just created a wu-ftpd 2.4 server on SunOS 4.1.4.
Here are simple questions on configuration.

1.  Do I need to keep both ftpaccess and ftpaccess.heavy files?
    And what's email user@hostname means?
   
2.  I've defined welcome messages on ftpaccess, ftpaccess.heavy
    on message:   /path/welcome  login entry
    But only real user ftp login can see it, but not anonymous login.
    
Thanks in advance.

Jeffrey

Hi everybody,

I set a wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-12 server on my system and virtual hosts like :

# Virtual Server at 10.10.10.10
virtual 10.10.10.10 root    /var/ftp/virtual/ftp-serv 
virtual 10.10.10.10 banner  /var/ftp/virtual/ftp-serv/banner.msg
virtual 10.10.10.10 logfile /var/log/ftp/virtual/ftp-serv/xferlog

Furthermore, I would like to be able to do anonymous ftp with that virtual 
host and I have set a ftp user in /etc/passwd with homedir /ftp.

Now, if I ftp to *real* host as anonymous, I go in that /ftp directory. 

My problem is that I don't know in which directory I go when ftp to *virtual* 
host as anonymous. In fact, I can see any file with 'ls' in the root dir.

Any idea about that problem ?		TIA.		Gildas.

HI..

I need to make the following:
* About 80 users on my server have $HOME/public_html dirs.
* They will update their Web pages by FTP using wu-ftpd.

The problem is that they have access to all the filesystem, even if it's
only with reading rights.

Is there a way to restrict them only to their $HOME dir or $HOME/public_html ?

Even if it's impossible, please let me know by EMail or by the list.
Thank you for the possible help.

Hi,
  I are running  wu-ftpd 2.4 Release 2 Beta 13 on a SCO Unixware 2.1
machine.  I have found that the "*" wildcard does not work.  Here is a
quick example.
ftp> mget *
*: No such file or directory.
can't find list of remote files, oops
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.

The "ls" shows the available files:
ftp> ls le*  - to show me the leakme.c file.
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.

I surfed thu the code some and found that the problem may lie in
the NLST variable in ftpd.c or one of the following defines:
#define HAVE_REGEX_H
#define HAVE_DIRENT
#define HAVE_D_NAMLEN

I have tried removing and undefining these variables with no luck.  
I was hoping someone else had this problem or you know of a solution?

TIA
Mike

I am running Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-13] and it seems to be running 
pretty well.

I have only one problem. We have a web site that that has a download button
that links into my server anonymously. Some users say that they are given 
permission denied to download the software.

Now ftp or fetch to the server works fine, so I am not sure why 
some people are having this problem. My log file does show one error
often. It could be a generic message or my problem. 
 
Can someone tell me what the below "deny" message means? And as a 
side issue, what is PASV and the associated numbers?

This question is for people who are running virtual hosting on Linux..

There was a message a month back about someone that was having trouble
getting beta-13 virtual support working on Linux due to a getsockname()
call failing.  

Is there anyone using virtual hosting on linux ?  If so please drop me a 
note as to what you had to do to get it working.  I don't have the time
to put up linux here at the moment but the question has come up.  Thanks!

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

Dear Managers,
This is the summary about the problems that I had in my ftp-server. I
hope it will be useful for the people with similars problems.

Problem:
 "I installed the wu-ftpd2.4 but nobody can access, cause the server
always denied the access."

Problem:
---
the deamon doesn't send the information to the syslog.

Sucessfull Answsers:
I have the following lines in my file syslog.conf:

Subject: wu-ftpd 2.4.2 beta 13 under IRIX 6.3
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
X-Sender: ernestm@mindspring.com

I've just compiled and installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-13 on an SGI O2
running IRIX 6.4, and thought I'd share my experiences with you.  I'll
follow the numbering of steps in the INSTALL file for convenience.

1.  Compilation went great, using ./build sgi, with only a couple minor
warnings.  I used the SGI compiler, since gcc and SGI don't mix too
happily right now.  I also compiled it with -DVIRTUAL for the virtual
ftp server support, and that also went fine.

2.  Installation was mostly OK - except for two things:
    a.  in makefiles/Makefile.sgi ETCDIR should be set to /usr/etc
because the default ftpd is /usr/etc/ftpd
    b.  in makefiles/Makefile.sgi the man page setup is wrong - here's
the deal.  SGI man page setup under IRIX 6.x is evil.  The default man
directories are /usr/share/catman/[agpu]_man - they've broken them up
into subdirectories where a_man includes sections 1,4, and 7, g_man
includes section 3, etc...  It's not a lot of fun.  Luckily, if you
stick man[1-8] directories straight into /usr/share/catman, man sees
them and is happy.  So a quick fix is just changing
MANDIR=/usr/share/catman - but those man[1,5,8] directories don't exist
yet.  In fact, in the base installation the SGI only ever has cat[1-8]
directories and not man[1-8] anywhere, even down in the grouped
subdirectories.  So either the installer need to make them himself or
the install script needs to.  I'm not sure if there's an elegant fix
here...

3.  Editing /etc/inetd.conf went fine.

4.  The "/etc/killall -HUP inetd" to restart the SGI inetd was required.

Here's where the plot thickens a little - SGI has no concept of an
/etc/shells file.  My first ftp login was rejected with the message:
530 User ernestm access denied...(bad shell)
Login failed.

I just made an /etc/shells file and that fixed it - it might be nice if
ignoring this was compiled in since IRIX itself doesn't care.  At least
there should be a note somewhere.

5-6. Skipped

7-9. ckconfig works fine.

I exercised all the ftpaccess options and the support programs, and all
work fine as best as I can tell.

Getting ls to work - as suggested in the FAQ, I had to generate dev/zero
usign MAKEDEV and copy over lib/libc.so.1 and lib/rld.  Then all worked.

Virtual hosting - Not working yet, but I'll work on it tomorrow...
I'll let you all know how it turns out.

So in general, it's working fine out of the box.  I plan to also install
it on some Origin 200's running IRIX 6.4 - should be much the same.

To any and all linux users -

Are there any special setups needed to build wu_ftpd on a linux system?
Even though there was the ./build lnx option, it didn't seems as if the
makefiles new where to search for certain librarys, and I wasn't able to
figure out where certain things were.

If anyone has had problems with setting up wu_ftpd on linux and discovered
anything, I would really appreciate some input.  I'm at a loss as to what
I should do.

Thanks,

- Wade

Hello Yale,

I haven't seen any replies to your query on the mailing list yet, so I'll
try :-

You don't say what Operating System you are running on, but it might be
Solaris 2.  Solaris 2 requires the permissions on ~ftp/dev/tcp to be set
to world writable in order for ftpd to be able to make passive connections.

Some FTP clients (usually Web browsers) try to establish a passive connection
with the server - that's what the PASV command in your log is.  So if you
are running Solaris 2, try setting the permissions on ~ftp/dev/tcp to 666.

If you're running another OS, then I can't help...

This problem (and others) is documented in the FAQ which you can find on
the Web in Kent Landfield's excellent WU-FTPD Resource Centre at
   http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
(The FAQ itself is at http://www.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html; look at
question 9.10)


The PASV command is basically a request to the server to move communication
to a non-default port on the server machine.  You can find more detail in
the RFC at
   http://www.landfield.com/rfcs/rfc959.html


The numbers in your log are the 3-digit codes the server uses at the
start of every response to the client to categorise the response type...
So for example, 425 implies (roughly) :
   4 - negative completion, but you may retry as it _might_ be transient
   2 - a control or data connection was involved
   5 - more specific detail on the area indicated by the second digit of
       the triad; in this case meaning it can't open the data connection.
These are also documented in the RFC.

I hope this helps !

Cheers, Bob

I have gone through the install files and I am not sure how to compile it
for Shadow support.  Could you please tell me?
