                 passive mode doesn't work.
             14. I made a symbolic link within the anonymous tree and it
                 doesn't work for the anonymous users.
             15. I want to redirect anonymous users to another machine
             16. ftpd stops accepting connections when a lot of
                 connections come in.
             17. Running wu-ftpd on a *large* site
             18. Only the first 8 characters of the anonymous username
                 are recieved by the server.
             19. wu-ftpd fails with '500 Illegal PORT Command' under AIX
                 4.3
             20. I want to host multiple ftp servers on the same machine
             21. I just upgraded and now nobody can log in. It worked
                 before.
        12. Other things
              1. Where is the FTP protocol documented ?
              2. How can I make my ftp-archive accessible by E-mail
                 (ftpmail) ?
        13. Credits

Is there any way in wu-ftpd to authenticate a user over an alternative
authentication scheme... like radius.  We have a situation where a
customer needs to run a single authentication database and still allow
there users ftp access to upload there personal web pages.  Any ideas?

Subject: [VR17] WU-FTPD-2.4.2-VR17 Released
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

WU-FTPD-2.4.2-VR17 is now available.

The VR updates for WU-FTPD include additional features requested over the
years by the user community and include a number of bug fixes for both the
base 2.4.2 release and earlier VR updates.  Major changes in this update
include:



All platforms
-------------

The ENTIRE 'make install' scheme has been revamped.  I did this as a
result of taking one of the Good Ideas (tm) from Redhat's RPM (which
several others have emailed me about as well) and applying it to all
target platforms.

This is the area I expect to have the most trouble.  Please be sure to at
least read over the new makefile for your targets.



As I gave warning about on the open mailing list, I've moved the FIXES*
files into a sub-directory under doc.  Be sure to remember to
  mkdir doc/FIXES
  mv FIXES* doc/FIXES
on your old source kits if you'll be attempting to diff for changes, or
want to try hand-applying the VR17 patches.



Not noted elsewhere:  Oops!  When I rolled VR16 it was against Stan's 2.4.2
tarball.  That means all the ownerships and permissions fell back to his
mess.  VR17's tarball has them corrected.



Solaris
-------

Solaris now supports QUOTA.



Linux
-----

Linux now supports PAM.  I've tested this on RH4 and RH5 servers.  Note
that PAM prevents diagnostic messages in the syslog about bad user shells
and appearance in /etc/ftpusers .. all you see is a login failure message.

Linux autodetects PAM and disables all other authentication methods if
found.  If you have PAM installed but don't want to build for it, add
NOPAM=1 to the build command line.

Linux also now autodetects OPIE.



This update is available as both patches and pre-patched tarballs at:

  ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/

A current mirrors listing is available at:

Most users only need the tarball appropriate for their system (gz or Z).

  425a58e58b3dc7af6574fbef756e9900  wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.patch

If you take just the patch files, please remember: they are cumulative. 
you cannot apply fixes from one set without earlier sets already having
been applied.  The first set for BETA-18 is VR3; VR1 and VR2 were for
BETA-17 only.  The first set for WU-FTPD-2.4.2 is VR16; VR3 through VR15
were for BETA-18 only.  A patch set covering the changes from BETA-18-VR15
to VR16 is available in the attic directory.

Pre-compiled binaries for VR17 are available.  Check the binaries directory
to see if a pre-compiled version is available for your platform.



This is a list of fixes to 2.4.2 with VR16 applied from lundberg@vr.net
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The primary goal for VR17 was to merge the changes Redhat makes in their
RPM release into the mainstream daemon.  The first section is notes from
the merge.  For specific changes, skip to the second section.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I used a fresh copy of Redhat's original wu-ftpd-2.4.2b18-2.1.src.rpm

  Changes made
    Add RPM_OPT_FLAGS, default -O3, to Linux Makefiles
*   Added DESTDIR for 'make install' Makefile
*   Added 'mkdir -p' to ensure destination directories exist
*   Added OWNERUID and OWNERGID for ownership, default bin/bin (I allowed
      separate UID/GID for each file area)
    Added PAM support for Linux, autodetected
*   bugfix: initialize c_time in ftpshut.c
*   bugfix: removed mv's to save old installed binaries

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

SPECIFIC CHANGES

Scott Parmenter <Scott.Parmenter@trw.com> reports problems with web clients
understanding the restricted-uid effects.  Instead of just remapping / to ~
this patch inserts ~ before all directory names starting with /.

Scott Parmenter <Scott.Parmenter@trw.com> noted while code-reading that a
call to restrict_check(".") was omitted from the LIST command when there is
no directory given.  This is probably unnecessary, but should be there for
consistency.

Added vers.c and edit to 'make cleandir' in the src directory.  These files
are automatically created during the build process.

Updated upload.configuration.HOWTO to describe more of the configuration
having to do with class= rules and overwrite, delete and rename clauses.

Redhat's SRPM includes a patch to handle wide process listings in the
ftpcount/ftpwho commands.  Their hack tried to pipe to the output through
sed, which won't work.  Do the same thing by-hand and it'll work for all
platforms as well.

Redhat's SRPM includes a patch to fix an uninitialized variable in ftpshut
which could effect the way the command works with default values.

Redhat's SRPM includes a patch to add PAM support.  Redhat's patch forced
PAM for Linux, I've set it up so the makefile auto-detects that your system
has PAM installed.

Ian Willis <ianw@SCO.com> reports dead code for removal.

Scott Parmenter <Scott.Parmenter@trw.com> reports dead code for removal.

'make install' now accepts DESTDIR to install into a directory structure
other than the root file system.  A number of other optional parameters are
available to override the default ownership of the installed files.
Missing directories are automatically created.  File permisssions were
reduced to the minimum necessary.

Albert Lunde <Albert-Lunde@nwu.edu> provided corrections for building on
HP/UX.

Scott Parmenter <Scott.Parmenter@trw.com> noted that file locking in
ftpcount/ftpwho was not completed.  In addition to finishing the work, he
provided some additional fixes needed for Trusted Solaris.

Alan Neiman <alann@ihs.com> provided QUOTA support for Solaris.

Jacques Distler <distler@golem.ph.utexas.edu> points out that under some
conditions _PATH_WTMP is not being set in pathnames.h

Roger Hanke <rah@lynx.lz.att.com> points out that 'log security' covers all
but a few messages about filesystem operations.  Make it cover the few it
didn't already cover.

Nikos Mouat <nikm@cyberflunk.com> requested the FIXES-* files be moved from
the main directory.  Good point, they are starting to cutter things up.
I've moved them to the directory doc/FIXES .. this will cause problems for
people running diff to see what's changed but they'll have to live with it.

Added doc/misc directory where I'll start putting interesting tidbits which
may help people get their servers going.

Scott Parmenter <Scott.Parmenter@trw.com> wrote an appnote about a problem
he had with Trusted Solaris.  Added his email to doc/misc.

Alain ENOUT <enout@eurecom.fr> provided information about OPIE, added to
doc/misc .. see src/makefiles/Makefile.lnx for a way to automatically have
the daemon use OPIE.  Send me your Makefile if you do something similar for
your system.

Rene Hexel <rh@idle.trapdoor.vip.at> points out that the labels unix and
__unix__ are depricated on BSD, effecting the logic for the reponse to the
SYST command.

Ayamura Kikuchi <ayamura@ayamura.org> says not all SunOS 4.1 boxes actually
have a getcwd() function.

Added a note from Chad Price <cprice@molbio.unmc.edu> in src/logwtmp.c
about the brokenness of Solaris' last command.

Ayamura Kikuchi <ayamura@ayamura.org> pointed out I'd not documented the
daemonaddress ftpaccess clause.  That was intentional on my part but I've
added a little documentation about it to the manpage anyway.

Kazuyoshi Komine <komine@cc.meisei-u.ac.jp> reported that MNTMAXSTR was
possibly undefined on Digital Unix 4.0 even when not using QUOTA_DEVICE.

Jacques Distler <distler@golem.ph.utexas.edu> reports that the default
shell on NextStep  want -d instead of -e.  Changed to test instead of []
since that's more portable; will probably do the same to other systems in
a future release.

Tim Rosmus <trosmus@nwnexus.net> provided fixes to allow the daemon to
compile on Ultrix.

Steve Costaras <stevecs@chaven.com> discovered the GNU EGCS is broken.  A
quick check and we can avoid the brokenness.

Leif Ericksen <leif@imho.net> discovered the Solaris patch for QUOTA
support was wrong.  This should fix it.

Chris Myers <cmyers@kiski.net> had problems with undefined behavior in
ftpcmd.y on Digitial Unix 4.0e.  Quick cleanup fixes it.

Ian Willis <ianw@sco.COM> submitted a patch which should fix numerous
complaints involving virtual_len filed by beta testers.

Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] WU-FTPD Development Group
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

The WU-FTPD Development Group is now forming.  The goals of this group,
until modified by the group, shall be to:

 - serve as a central clearinghouse for all information concerning WU-FTPD
   and related software and documentation;

 - foster future development of the WU-FTPD software in particular, and the
   FTP protocol in general;

 - elminate dependence upon a single person for corrections and
   enhancements to the software and its documentation;

 - stop subdivision of the user base by merging the various efforts into a
   single effort.

Recent discussions, both private and public, has convinced me the time has
come for a change in management of the Washington University FTP Daemon,
and its many derivatives variously known as wu-archive, wu-ftpd, wu-ftpd-vr
and BeroFTPD.

Bernhard, I and several others have, for some time now, been working toward
this goal.  The most visible results of our work have, to date, been the
stream of updates Bernhard and I have produced.  Less visible has been our
work on the formation of an open development group to manage future
development of the software.

Last year I registered the domain names 'wu-ftpd.org' and 'wuftpd.org' and
Kent Landfield began work on servers to host the group.  In the interim,
Kent was pulled away by other tasks.  As a result, I took on implementation
of the servers.  To be honest, my work load has not allowed me to have all
the services in place I have planned.  Enough services are ready, however,
that the group may begin work while the remaining tasks are completed.

The following Internet services are currently online or planned for the
near future:

 - ANONCVS.WU-FTPD.ORG (not implemented)

 - CVS.WU-FTPD.ORG (90% complete)

 - FTP.WU-FTPD.ORG (80% complete)

 - WWW.WU-FTPD.ORG (not implemented)

 - MAIL.WU-FTPD.ORG (90% complete)

These servers are currently provided by the VRnet Company as a public
service to the Internet community.  As such, I reserve final authority as
to which services are provided, their configuration and maintenance, and
all security issues.

Due to security measures on the current servers, there are five levels of
membership in the WU-FTPD Development Group.  Once the group is up and
running, these may change.  In decreasing security privilege these are:

 Host Admins
 -----------
 These are the persons responsible for the actual hardware and software
 providing the services.  Having SSH-root access these users have complete
 authority and access to all facets of the servers.  At his time, this
 group consists soles of VRnet staff members and is unlikely to change so
 long as the servers are hosted at VRnet.

 The following entities are host administrators:

   hostmaster@vr.net
   postmaster@vr.net
   abuse@vr.net
   security@vr.net
   noc@vr.net

 Group Admins
 ------------
 These are the persons responsible for the creation and deletion of users
 on the group's servers.  These users have SSH-root privileges on the
 servers they administer; their privileges are resticted to those functions
 necessary to their jobs.  At this time, the only server allowing Group
 Administration is CVS.WU-FTPD.ORG; other servers will be added to this
 list as they are completed.

 The following persons have Group Administrative rights on CVS.WU-FTPD.ORG:

   Bernhard Rosenkraenzer
   Gregory A Lundberg

 Other administrators may be appointed by the group.  The Host Admins may
 veto an appointment on the grounds of past security problems involving the
 appointee, but otherwise must honor the group's decision and grant
 administrative access in a timely fashion.

 Full Members
 ------------
 These are members having full access to the servers.  At this point, this
 primarily mens they have commit rights on CVS.WU-FTPD.ORG; other full-
 member privileges will be added as the servers are completed.  These
 privileges are granted by the creation of an account for the member on the
 servers by the group administrators.

 During the initial formation period, Bernhard Rosenkraenzer and Gregory A
 Lundberg are issuing invitations to people who, for various reasons, they
 feel should be members of the WU-FTPD Development Group.  Once a
 sufficient number have joined, the group is expected to adopt its own
 procedures concerning membership and the rights and privileges of members.

   Alex Yu <ayu1@nycap.rr.com>

   The order above simply alphabetical.  We have attempted to list those
   who we felt have contributed significantly to the daemon over the past
   and are sure we missed a number of people we intended to include.  For
   that we beg your undertanding and humbly appologize.

 Members
 -------
 These are members who, for whatever reason, have chosen not to accept
 accounts or privileges on the various servers; or have had those
 privileges revoked.  The distinction here is privilege on the servers; the
 group will decide what other rights members may have.  The idea is that a
 member of the group may choose to have email privileges, yet not accept
 cvs commit privileges.

 Non-Members
 -----------
 Non-members have no special privileges on the group's servers.  Anonymous
 access to some of the servers is permitted non-members.  The group will
 determine the anonymous access rules for mailing lists and the servers.

Install Linux.  Install LinuxPAM.  Download VR17, install it.  Install a
PAM module for your favorite auth method.  Ta Da!

No Linux?  No way unless you wanna be a code warrior.

There is a way if you're running FreeBSD or something very similar -
Install FreeBSD >= 3.1, Download BeroFTPD 1.3.4, install it.

Subject: OPIE in VR17.. (Success again after 2 fixes..)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hi there...

Sorry to rant again.. 
OPIE is still broken VR17 ...

This is using VR17 straight from the ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/ 
This is being compiled on a RedHat 5.2.

I am using the following to build.

./build lnx NOPAM=1

Yes ,I dont want PAM . I want OPIE.

The build picks up the -DOPIE just fine after moving
opie.h  to  /usr/local/opie/opie.h
libopie.a  to  /usr/local/opie/libopie/libopie.a

Which is fine...Except in config.h you still have

#undef OPIE

Took me an hour to figure that one out.The one in config.h
cancels out the commandline -DOPIE ...
After removing the line (defining OPIE in there gives you warning
messages), everything looks good. But wait...

The ftpd cores on signal 11, due to same problem I reported a few
weeks ago. The fix for that is below as well.

Fixes are ....
1. Delete the #undef OPIE from config.h in the top level.
2. Make the area around (!opieverify) looks like this :

#else /* OPIE */
        if(!opieverify(&opiestate, passwd))
            {
            rval = 0;
            xpasswd = crypt(passwd, pw->pw_passwd);   
            }
        else     
               xpasswd = crypt(passwd, pw->pw_passwd);
#endif /* OPIE */

This works for me. I am sending this out 
just in case anyone else's uses OPIE with wuftpd.

Thanks,
David

Subject: path-filter in ftpaccess

I have a question about using the path-filter command in ftpaccess.

Here is my path-filter command in ftpaccess:
path-filter anonymous,guest /etc/pathfilter.msg ^[-A-Za-z0-9\._]*$ ^\.
^-

According to the man page, if the filename is invalid, it will display
the message in /etc/pathfilter.msg to the user.  This didn't work for
me.  
When I try to upload a file with a space, it will give me the following
message:
553 joe test.zip: Permission denied. (Filename (accept))

If I upload a file with a - or . in the beginning, it will give me:
553 -joe.zip: Permission denied. (Filename (deny))

Although this does exactly what I want, it didn't give enough
information to the user of why the permission is denied.

What permission or limitation the file pathfilter.msg need to have?  I
assume this is just a text file.

Any helps will be appreciated.

Yep.  If PAM is there, that's all you'll get.  NOPAM=1 is required to
suppress it.  Pragmatic choice: assume most Redhat people want a fast
build to be just (or very much) like Redhat would give them.

There's command-line ways to override these defaults.  I took the defaults
from a default 'make install' of OPIE.

The following looks to be cleaner.

#else /* OPIE */
        if(!opieverify(&opiestate, passwd))
            rval = 0;
        xpasswd = crypt(passwd, pw->pw_passwd);
#endif /* OPIE */




The question is "Why signal 11?"  The answer is xpasswd is a char* which
will be referenced later.  Would it not be more correct to say "If OPIE's
opieverify() says NO then you're not getting in."? ...

#ifdef ULTRIX_AUTH
        if ((numfails = ultrix_check_pass(passwd, xpasswd)) >= 0) {
#else
        /* The strcmp does not catch null passwords! */
      if (pw !=NULL && *pw->pw_passwd != '\0'
#ifdef HAS_PW_EXPIRE
          && (pw->pw_expire && time(NULL) < pw->pw_expire)
#endif
ifndef OPIE
          && strcmp(xpasswd, pw->pw_passwd) == 0
#endif
#endif
      ) {
            rval = 0;



Someone with OPIE want to tell me which way is better?

You need a copy of /etc/pathfilter.msg in *EVERY* chroot'd area.  For
instance, here, I'd need it in:

/home/ftp/etc/pathfilter.msg
/home/users/etc/pathfilter.msg
/home/users/<siteowner>/ftp/etc/pathfilter.msg

This is the same problem as the shutdown message I referred to a while
ago.  Same answer: maybe someday someone will fix it so you only need on
copy.

Im kinda finicky of some things. RedHat does a good job but I still
feel the need to modify things differently than RedHat would do them.

Im not sure of the signal 11, but somewhere down farther it was still
checking on the xpassword and it was core dumping. I didnt look
into it and left it when I figured out the workaround..
(which yours is cleaner..)

I dont know if anyone else is running OPIE ( probably not since
most people dont care). But thanks for looking into it.
I have VR17 running with OPIE and thats all that matters..

Thanks,
David

This is an FRF.

Unless Bernhard has added something I've not heard about, there is no way
to limit connections per-user or per-IP-address in a general way.

If it's a specific host or network block, you can define a class for those
uses and limit the class.



I have noticed that there are a few mirror-like packages out there for
Windows.  I tried a few for grins.  What I found was that some of them
offer a 'download in parallel' option which has no parallel-connection
limit.  When I told it to download from my ftp site, it tried to open
several hundred sessions at once and declared the site dead when it stared
failing due to user limits.

I have noticed also that most anonymous users like to use Netscape or IE.
There's a configurable limit for parallel connections from those browsers.
Typically the limit is a small number (5 or 6).

Web browsers, however, tend to do a dumb thing.  They hold the last
session open until the user closes the window or moves off to another
site.  If a user opens a few windows, you'll have several open sessions.

I've done some experimentation and found that a short timeout helps
immensely.  The default of two hours is **WAY** too long.  I played with
the timeouts and settled on 5 minutes.  That's long enough to scan a
document and start another download for command-line people.  And it's
short enough to push out the web browsers.

So my recommendation:

  Run the server with -t 300 -T 300 on the command line.  This sets a
  five-minute default idle timeout, and a five-minute limit on how high a
  user can set the idle timeout.

You'll still have a few users in parallel, but the number will probably be
quite reduced.

for
the ftp-users ? i'd like to see them only the pub-directroy without having
the 
possibility to change.

2: how can i set a motd (message of the day, banner) with the wuftpd.

thanx alot for your help

You should set the permissions to safe values so even though the users can
see the directories exist, they cannot see inside them.

You should also set upload and noretrieve clauses in the ftpaccess file to
prevent modification of viewing of the files.

In VR17, for real and guest users (but *NOT* for anonymous users) there is
a new feature 'restricted-uid' which you can use to keep a user inside
their home directory.  This should be used along with making the user a
guest.

> 2: how can i set a motd (message of the day, banner) with the wuftpd.

Banners are configured using the message claus in ftpaccess.  For
instance:

message .welcome login
message .message cwd=*
readme  README*  cwd=*

Displays the file '.welcome' from the current directory on initial log in.

Displays the file '.message' the first time a user changes into a
directory.

And suggests the user view and file whose name starts with 'README' the
first time the user changes into a directory.

On older versions 'changes into a directory' meant as a result of a user
command.  With the VR versions, is also means when the daemon changes into
the initial directory during log in.

The daemon does not create the message files.  So if you want a motd which
changes daily, you will need to write a script to generate it.

My problem appears similar to Bruce's, below, but changing ftpaccess from

class   local   real,guest,anonymous *.pcc.edu 192.220.*.* 
class   all   real,guest,anonymous   *

to

class   local   real,guest,anonymous *.*.pcc.edu 192.220.*.* 
class   all   real,guest,anonymous   *

seems to make no difference.  No one can log in, no class errors, but I do find
the
following in syslog:

 FTP LOGIN REFUSED (ftp not in /etc/passwd)

Upgrading to VR17 from wu-2.4-academ, under  HPUX 10.20.  No changes to passwd
files or anything else but inetd.conf, which went from

ftp             stream tcp nowait root /etc/ftpd    ftpd -l -u 022

to

ftp     stream tcp nowait root /etc/ftpd    ftpd -a -d -l -u022

Need a thought or direction on this one.  Using the Virtual FTP setup
under BeroFTPD (actually, using the same ftpaccess file as I did for the
newvirt code from time gone by.)  Guest accounts using one of these
virtual FTP servers gets the following when uploading (doing a PUT) on a
file:

ftp> put setvif.pl
local: setvif.pl remote: setvif.pl
200 PORT command successful.
550 Could not determine cwdir: Result too large.


Any real account works fine as does any other command by a guest user.  
The mailing list archives have a few other people with the same error, but
I never found a response/answer.  This is a SunOS 4.1.4 machine.  By going
back to the newvirt code (by just changing the line in /etc/inetd.conf),
everything works.  Any thoughts or pointers are appreciated.

The change I see here is from *.pcc.edu to *.*.pcc.edu

What that means is match host.dept.pcc.edu, but don't match host.pcc.edu
(too few periods in the name).  You probably want to set this back the way
it was.

My comments you quoted were about IP-number wildcards.  If you'd have said
you changes 192.220.* to 192.220.*.* then you'd have made the change I was
discussing.

This usually means exactly what it says, there is no user named 'ftp' in
the system /etc/passwd file.  Anonymous login won't work without it.

On some systems, this can mean there's an error accessing the system
/etc/passwd file such as needing to do some hand-waving to tell the system
that _this_ binary is authorized to read the file.

Since you didn't have '-a', either you were running an ancient version of
the daemon and were vulnerable to a number of security problems or you
were not using /etc/ftpaccess at all, which would explain why this problem
suddenly seemed to crop up.

I've never seen that the '-d' option does anything even remotely usefull.

The whitespace removal in '-u 022' points to having upgraded from a very
old version of the daemon.



I'd suggest trying the precompiled VR17 binary for HP/UX 10.20 (there are
two, get the right one .. trusted or non-trusted .. for your system).  If
you're building from source, be sure to carefully read through config.h
and src/config/config.hpx to be sure you have selected the options needed
for your platform.

VR17 has been tested and is known to work properly on HP/UX 10.20; so it's
probably a local error either in the compile or configuration.

Makes sense.  ISTR something about this problem with SunOS.  You patch
looks good and I'll roll it into VR11 for release on the 1st.  In about 4
days I'll freeze my work on VR11 and roll a test/prebuild tarball and put
it in my prerelease area.



I ran into this problem again, on SunOS, debugging VR16 in March.  At that
time I was able to log into a SunOS 4.1 box and prove, to my own
satifaction, that the program is Sun's runtime is buggy.



First, make sure you're current on *ALL* patches from Sun.



If OS patches for fix this: I don't know how to control this on BeroFTPD,
but what you need to do is convince the source code build system that you
do NOT have getcwd() and it will need to use getwd() instead.  autoconf
will probably detect that getcwd() is there but has no way of knowing that
the operating system's runtime is buggy so be prepared to hack after you
run configure.

Greg,

	Thanks for the info - I have this fixed now.  I cheated a bit, but
hey, it works.  To summarize, in order to get BeroFTPD to be happy under
SunOS 4.1.4 and guest 'puts' I did (assuming you are getting the error - 
550 Could not determine cwdir: Result too large.):

1.  Ran ./configure with all the options I needed.
2.  Edited config.cache and change the getcwd line to 'no'
3.  Reran ./configure so it would rebuild src/config.h to undef
	HAVE_GETCWD  and anything else necessary.
4.  Ran make


I had tried undef'ing HAVE_GETCWD in src/config.h at first (as I see the
code has ifdef statements concerning the availability of getwcd) but that
didn't seem to take.  So I did my 4 steps from above and all is good.
Thanks again.

I've scoured the WU-FTPD docs, man pages, and FAQs but haven't been able to 
find a way to do this. I have user who needs to be able to upload to my 
anonymous dir. I don't want anyone else to be able to upload to it just 
him. At the same time I don't want to make it his home dir. I noticed 
that in this case the FAQ mentioned something about loopback mounts. I'm 
using RedHat 5.1 and everything I can find about loopbacks says that they 
only work with files and not dirs. I come from an NT background where this 
was very easy to do. Any ideas?

Thanks,George

Use a loopback mount.  Read the manpage 'man 8 losetup'.  You may need to
rebuild your kernel to add support for it.

Yes, from the point of view of the main filesystem, the loopback mount is
a file.  Inside the file it's a filesystem, but you can only see that once
it's mounted.

A word of caution: the loopback mount occurs after the fsck during
startup.  That means you'll need to be sure to explicitly run fsck on the
filesystem when you mount it.

Nope.

2.4.2-VR{16,17} includes the few changes from beta-18 to final.

Does he need to upload directly into the anonymous directory at the top
level, or can you create a subdirectory underneath it ?  If you can use a
subdirectory, then you might be able to avoid the need for loopback mounts
as follows...

You could create a subdirectory which can only be written to by someone who
is in a special group.  People who log in anonymously are not in this group
by default, so they would be able to see the directory, but not write to it.
You can give your favoured user a password to let them change their group to
the one which is able to write to the subdirectory.  So whenever they wanted
to upload, they could log in as anonymous, change to the new group, cd to
their upload directory and do the necessary.  See the documentation on the
ftpaccess "private" directive and site group / site gpass commands for more
details.

However, a loopback mount may suit your purposes better - it has the advantage
that the user can log in with his normal id and password and access the upload
directory under his home directory without any special effort on his part.

Cheers, Bob

Is there a reason not to strip the binaries?  Just on the off chance of

If you run a mirror and would like it listed above, just send me the URL.
Unless your local policy requires it, there is no need to ask my permission
to mirror the primary distribution site.  I do like knowing who is
mirroring, though.

It seems to be true on my alphas but not on my solaris boxen:

The normal build script links with symbols in src and strips when it
copies to bin .. unless that step was removed for Solaris.

Hi Group,
I wonder can anyone help me?

I have been running wu-ftp for sometime now. My users upload
HTML pages to their website quite successfully.

I have created a chroot'ed environment by adding ...

guessgroup website

... to the ftpaccess file (all website are of the group website)

Ok, here's the crunch.  Up until now, my users have been using plain
old msdos ftp program.  Now, they are insisting on using CuteFTP ???
The problems is this file and directory list isn't working in the
remote area of CuteFTP.  If you happen to know the directory structure,
you can change directory blind.

Any ideas ???

Cheers for now,
Jason

In complete setup.  you need the external ls program in the <chroot>/bin
directory and maybe some libraries and other things.  Check the FAQ.

[Bcc'd to list managers]

Well, this at least proves the mailing list is still alive.

Unfortunately, it also proves the mailing list is losing emails.

I was becoming concerned that there was suddenly no traffic over the past
week.  I believe the problem, though, is only related to the wu-ftpd
mailing list, since I've had good, fast communications with the listproc
software on wugate.

I've looked through much of the on-line documentation and the man pages
and am still wondering if there is a way to set a umask on a user
directory (say ~user/bob) that is different than that specified in the
-u switch...

Thanks.

Use the upload clause to force a specific permission set on uploaded
files.

If the user will be creating directories, upgrade to a VR version or
BeroFTPD, and use the upload clause to force a permission set on created
directories.

Help for upload is in:

The documentation on upload clauses found in the ftpaccess manpage and
the upload-config.howto seem to talk about how anonymous and guest
accounts can upload to specified user-owned directories.

What I am trying to find out is if I have user ``bob'' with a home
directory of /usr/home/bob and a public_html directory under that, how
do I set it so that bob can upload to ~ and have one umask and upload to
public_html with another umask.

Can it be done?  The docs are vague on real user info.

Thanks a lot.

Well, now as you are stating this I recall that I wondered too why in 
the past days there has been less traffic than in the weeks before.
Just for interest:
Do you already know what has been the reason?

Have a nice day

Do yourself a favor and make 'bob' a guest.  You shouldn't allow any
real-user access at all (or, only allow it for the single ftp admin: you).

Upload clauses apply to real users.

If someone could tell me if this is a good idea or bad idea. It would
also be helpful if you would me some of the functions that would help
me to implement this.

I am looking to add the ability to upload a file from one FTP server
to another FTP server (I guess build a basic FTP client in the
server). The idea is that a customer would FTP to ftp server A. and
upload a file. Then ftp server  A. would open an intranet connection
to ftp server B and login is using the user id and password that was
used by the user to login on to system A. At this point Server A would
transfer the file to ftp system B. When the transfer from A to B was
finished it would then return control to the customer terminal or it
could release the terminal and do the transfer in the background. Then
files would exist on both system right away. I know something like
this could be done by a script (like Mirror) but then  passwords would
be listed in an unencrypted state  or I would have to make the script
to run as setuid on the target system.

Sounds like you need to look at 'mirror' or an FTP proxy.

Don't know what you're trying to do but the way I read it, it looks
perillous.  If you're trying to allow outside customers to drop off files
for inside users, leave them on the outsode server and have the insiders
come get them.  I would NEVER allow ANYTHING from the outside world past a
firewall/proxy without someone on the inside coming to pick it up.

Think of it like a letter-bomb .. should the mail room deliver it to the
board room, or make the CFO come pick it up?  Damage will be bad either
way.  It may mean the CFO has to walk a bit, and he may make life hard on
your for making him do it, but at least there's _something_ left of the
executive board after the smoke clears.  You question, though, sounds even
worse .. you want to let the bomber have the keys to the board room so
it's easier for him to drop off the letter where it will do the most
damage.  What you should be doing is bomb-proofing the mail room.

What M. Lundberg is suggesting is exactly how our company does this.  We
have a Linux box running wu_ftpd outside the firewall.  Customers are given
guest accounts under the group ftponly.  Jobs inside the firewall utilize a
real user and use 'cd ~username' to get to the appropriate directories.

This has been very effective and in use for two years, with over 200 users
using the system.  We can move users around and add disk drives very easily,
since all references to get files use '~user', and all users are guests.

The only problem we have is knowing 'when' files arrive.  We have to run
jobs every hour or so to go look for new files and download them.

BeroFTPD has an email extension which will mail you automagically when a
file arrives.

I've got something similar in my TODO list, but I'll allow you to run a
given program instead of simply emailing.  My plan is to offer an email
program as an example so my version has a feature similar to BeroFTPD's (I
could, I suppose, even use Bernhard's syntax to run that program).

Up-side: solves the problem quickly, if your systems support it.

Down-side: yet another security risk on the bastion host, and one which
has special privilege allowing it to cross from the DMZ to the secured
area at the bidding of an outsider.

If you are going between an external network and an internal network, nfs
raises several severe security issues.  It would require your firewall
administrator to open several rpc ports - many of which have known
vulnerabilities.  The risk to your internal network makes this not
desirable.

One of my folks "found" a perl ftp script somewhere which would allow a
scripted login and transfer of data bewteen two servers using ftp (I can
supply the source if desired).  One potential idea would be to have the
internal machine "ftp" the files from the external machine (a data pull -
not a push) based on sometype of cron schedule.   Just some thoughts.

I have being trying to set up a guest ftp account for a user to be able to
drop files into a directory on a linux machine.

When I ftp to the machine I get the directory specified as root( chroot'ed
into it ).

But I get no list of the files in the ( remote ) directory. 
I have placed ls in a bin directory in this 'root' directory.

I have done an ldd of ls and copied the files shown from /lib 
into a lib  directory in this 'root' directory.

Anu ideas as to what I am doing wrong ( or omitting )

Punt.  There's statically linked precompiled support binaries in my FTP
site: ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/binaries/intel/linux/

The example site is a working Linux site since, with static binaries,
Linux is also a minimum installation.

I know this is not part of the wu-ftpd list, but here's something
to think about:

Instead of using wu-ftpd, setup the 2 servers for strict ssh authentication,
then use rsync with the -e ssh option.  This will accomplish 2 things:
1. The 2 hosts involved will ONLY have authentication between themselves
    (ONLY if the hosts you set up are TRUSTED)
2. The data between the 2 hosts will be encrypted, therefore the pipe is
    secured and the data cannot be decrypted.

Just a thought, even though this doesn't pertain to wu-ftpd.

Greg, have you ever though of adding ssh with wu-ftpd?  That would be
way cool. The tunnel/pipeline is secure and the data...  well, you know the
rest.

tunnelling FTP without a smart proxy or custom client/server is
problematic.

I'd love to add SSL to wu-ftpd, but that will have to be done outside the
US/Canada since it seems our silly governments consider the protocols to
be nuclear weaponry.

To have SSL is good, but there is no such client for both Mac and PC.  I
would rather see SFTP for Mac and PC, not command prompt, but GUI interface!

But anyway, there is another a ssl-ftpd, which can be downloaded from
ftp.replay.com, includes RPM and SRPM packages.  Anyone wanna hack it?

Hi,

when scanning our xferlog file I have found curious hosts there.
Their names consist of (from left to right) an alphanumerical 
part, then there is something looking like a 3 part IP number, 
after this follows "in-addr.arpa"

For example:  hosta.hostb.123.123.123.in-addr.arpa

The above is only an example, number of the left host names and 
the left host names themselves and the middle digits differ.

May be I'm too cautious, but what's that??
Especially, what about the "in-addr.arpa" part?
Can host names sent to wu-ftpd, or in other words received by 
wu-ftpd, can these host names be hacked?

I appreciate helpful feedback.

Have a nice day
Michael

Sounds like transparent proxy to me... I know that IBM's firewall does this... (i.e. you ftp to the firewall & put user@host for username & then the transparent proxy connects fo ryou & passes the passwd & everything else along to the remote site). Works quite well (Actually works extreemly well). It doesn't require a userid or authentication on the firewall or anything like that. I agree it'd be nice for wu-ftpd to do something like this. Perhaps you'd like to add it :)

  Hamish.

If someone could tell me if this is a good idea or bad idea. It would
also be helpful if you would me some of the functions that would help

I am looking to add the ability to upload a file from one FTP server
to another FTP server (I guess build a basic FTP client in the
server). The idea is that a customer would FTP to ftp server A. and
upload a file. Then ftp server  A. would open an intranet connection
to ftp server B and login is using the user id and password that was
used by the user to login on to system A. At this point Server A would
transfer the file to ftp system B. When the transfer from A to B was
finished it would then return control to the customer terminal or it
could release the terminal and do the transfer in the background. Then
files would exist on both system right away. I know something like
this could be done by a script (like Mirror) but then  passwords would
be listed in an unencrypted state  or I would have to make the script
to run as setuid on the target system.

I am looking to Load balance the 2 servers in a DMZ( not pass from and
outside server to an inside server). The system are in 2 different
data center that are linked by an private T1. So the proxy idea will
not work unless it could connect to 2 different systems at the same
time. The other suggestion of running another program (e-mail/script)
would be something I am looking for too combined with NFS running over
an encrypted link would work together great. If you could provide me
some information on what I would need to do to implement the
additional functionality so another program will run when a file
downloads.


On a side note. Those who are on Solaris and looking for encrypted
traffic between 2 or more servers/network's you might want to check
out Sun Screen Skip 1.1.1 is transparent to the user.

Sounds like you need to look at 'mirror' or an FTP proxy.

Don't know what you're trying to do but the way I read it, it looks
perillous.  If you're trying to allow outside customers to drop off
files
for inside users, leave them on the outsode server and have the
insiders
come get them.  I would NEVER allow ANYTHING from the outside world
past a
firewall/proxy without someone on the inside coming to pick it up.

Think of it like a letter-bomb .. should the mail room deliver it to
the
board room, or make the CFO come pick it up?  Damage will be bad
either
way.  It may mean the CFO has to walk a bit, and he may make life hard
on
your for making him do it, but at least there's _something_ left of
the
executive board after the smoke clears.  You question, though, sounds
even
worse .. you want to let the bomber have the keys to the board room so
it's easier for him to drop off the letter where it will do the most
damage.  What you should be doing is bomb-proofing the mail room.

broken DNS declaration. Or at least seem to be such. Dude forgot to place

Between two machines in the DMZ, I'd consider NFS.  I'd also take a look
at a traffic director to handle the load balancing.  Just got some
literature on a couple manufacturer's new models: they look good, are more
scalable, and should give you a lot more kick than DNS balancing ever
could.

I am having a problem getting the vitual root command to work with RedHat
5.2.  I got it working on another box so I figure I must have it setup
correctly.  The banner and logfiles command work fine just not the root
line.  I tried to recompile making sure the the virtual CFLAG was set but
the compiler kept telling me that virtual was redefined.  It did compile
but I am still having the same problem.  The other box didn't shadow
passwords installed so I figure this must be the problem.  Any ideas?

Several platforms have #define VIRTUAL in src/config/config.<os> so it's
always enabled.  That's the cause of redefinition warning.

Which version of the daemon are you compiling?

Use ldd, check to see if you're missing any (normal) libraries.

NB: You're building for Redhat Linux where PAM is almost always installed.
If you're compiling VR17 on Linux, it will see PAM and use it in favor of
**ALL** other authentication methods.  Even if you link statically, PAM
uses *.so libraries and a number of config files which you may be missing.

It's also possible that those are IP's in a CIDR block that are
not being resolved correctly. Try resolving 195.80.134.34,
if the result is "34.134.80.195.in-addr.arpa" or
"34.0/26.134.80.195.in-addr.arpa", then your DNS resolver is at fault.

Hope this helps,

Purchase the commercial version of wu-ftpd, FileDrive (www.filedrive.com)
It has a completely extensible authentication system called ActiveAgents.
You can plug in LDAP, SecurID, Entrust or your own custom auth scheme
and database.

It's statically linked and ldd complained.  I think most of the normal
stuff is there because
even with the complainants, it did compile and install.  The only part that
is screwy is the 
virtual root.

It lets me log in as a real user and even logs to the virt log but won't
drop into that dir.

I'll take a look at the pam libraries and make sure they are installed.

Thanks,
George

Of course, BeroFTPD can use alternative authentication modules, if you
want to save yourself some money :)

If you continue to have problems, try VR17.  If nothing else, it'll match
the version I'm currently shipping so I can answer more authoritatively
about configuration questions.  Precompiled binaries are available. The
non-RPM binaries I build support shadow password, no PAM, and should work
immedeately on your system.

The location of the latest version of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory

Ok.. I have RedHat 5.2 installed and have pam_lradius.so compiled and
installed.  Does anyone have some pointers for me on what I need to put
in my /etc/pam.d/ftp file.  I can't find any docs that help me out with
this...

Hello,
I wish to report that I have strange problem with vr.17 - with version =
vr/16 my shadow file is recognized and used correctly, but with version =
vr.17 I can't login with user name and password. With same username and =
password i work with version vr. 16.

I read FAQ about howto compile version with shadow password support, but =
I think If previous version works without any modifications why new =
version wan't work. Maybe it's bug.

If you're compiling for Linux, it's probably that you have PAM installed
on the machine.  Set up PAM for FTP or compile without PAM support:
  ./build NOPAM=1 lnx

If you're not using Linux, please let me know which platform you are
using.

Folks

I've compiled and installed wu-ftp v 2.4.2 successfully (on Solaris v2.6)
and can connect to it perfectly using regular user accounts. However I get
"Cannot set guest privileges" when I try one of the guest users I have
created. I've been through the guest howto document and all seems OK.

Has anyone come across this before?

All pointers appreciated

The error message in the system log will probably help a lot.

Greetings.  I need a bit of input on how to solve a problem I have.

Several of the staff/faculty here maintain several different web
pages, scattered throughout the webserver docs tree.  Most of them are
using Netscape publishing to accomplish this, but a few have requested
FTP access.

I have been able to set them up with real access (guest won't work in
this case I don't think) to their primary directory, but I now need
an easy way (is there such a thing?) to give them access to their
secondary directory.

Example:
User fred has a primary directory under the web tree of /courses/fred/
They also maintain the Automobile Club pages under /clubs/auto/

They will log in to /courses/fred/ right now, but I can't think of an
easy way to only let them then access /clubs/auto/ without having full
roam over the rest of the server.  They are set up in their own group,
so if anything, they only have read access to /etc/passwd etc (which
is shadowed, and 99% don't even know what a unix server looks like)
and no delete access.

Any ideas I can try?

Why not simply use two logins - to use your example, give fred a login
"fred" to access /courses/fred,
and a login"auto" to access /clubs/auto.  This way you can have both users
as guests and restrict their access to only those directories (if you wish
to have the appropriate chroot file tree).

Alternatively, you could chroot them to /courses and /clubs, have the
chroot files in these directories (bin, etc, lib ... ) and use unix
permissions to restrict them to only changing their specific area.  You
could also have them automatically cd'd to the required directory in this
model using the homedir/./logindir syntax in etc/passwd.

Hope this helps,

James

I have successfully set up several wu-ftpd guess accounts as specified in
the guest-howto, or so I thought. Upon viewing my xferlogs, I noticed that
transfers from the accounts I had set up following the guest-howto were not
showing up in the xferlogs, but that they did show up partially in the
messages logs. I have asked several friends who have far more linux
experience than myself, and they are stumped on why the xferlog isn't
tracking those accounts either, so I figured I would post my question to you
in hope of some insight on this matter. Currently running Redhat 5.2, kernal
2.2.3. Any other information you may need, just ask!

I know that this has been mentioned before, but is there any further word on
what is wrong with the list server?  I managed to get 1 message from the list
in the last 24 hours, and I think that is a bit strange.  Usually there will be
at least 10 and up to 20 or so.

Anyway, hopefully if everyone gets this, there will be some replies generated
and I'll see some traffic just to confirm that the list is working.

Thanks,

James

It has been a bit quiet recently.  Until Greg posted his email I just
assumed it was a slack period (has happened occasionally before), but maybe
there is a problem.

Anyway, I got the mail, so at least James can post to the list, and at least
I can receive from it...

Cheers, Bob

The sudden lack of traffic on the wustl.edu list has me worried;
especially considering I _know_ some emails are not making it to the list
and I've heard others make the same comment.

If you have attempted to ask a question and it has not appeared on the
list, you may send your questions directly to me but I'd prefer to start
swtiching such questions over to the WU-FTPD Development Group.

The WU-FTPD Development Group has established a mailing list for questions
and general discussion about all versions of the WU-FTPD daemon.

To subscribe to the list send an email to
  wuftpd-questions-request@wu-ftpd.org
with the body of the email consisting of the lines
  subscribe wuftpd-questions
  end

Is there a way to change the login banner message, other than recompiling?

In VR17 you can use the following:

  greeting full
  greeting brief
  greeting terse

Where

  full --- full version information including ftpcmd.y changes (the
           parenthetical number you've always wondered about) and the date
           and time ftpcmd.y was last processed into ftpcmd.c (no, that's
           not the date and time you compiled, how odd).

  brief -- shows just the server name.  Ie:
           220 ftp.wu-ftpd.org FTP server ready.

  terse -- just the fact the server is up.
           220 FTP server ready.

Any other forms, or on non-VR versions, and you'll need to hack the
source.

This is the realpath() overflow discussed in

  http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-99-03-FTP-Buffer-Overflows.html

Please review that document to determine if your version of the WU-FTPD
daemon is vulnerable.

The addition of a backdoor (if true) is new, however.

Anyone wishing to discuss this matter may contact me through either of the
WU-FTPD discussion lists cc'd above or through private email.

Hi all,

I am trying to install VR17 on my HP-UX box running 10.20.  The code compiles
okay.  But when I install it, I am having problems with both anonymous and guest
users.  Everything worked okay on VR15.

For anonymous users, I get the message in syslog:

Apr 14 13:08:05 ftp ftpd[24210]: FTP LOGIN REFUSED (ftp not in /etc/passwd) FROM
207.242.212.2 [207.242.212.2], anonymous
Apr 14 13:08:05 ftp ftpd[24210]: FTP session closed

Here is my entry in /etc/passwd:

ftp:*:500:1:Anonymous FTP user:/home/ftp/./pub:/usr/bin/false

I'm having a different problem for guest users:

Syslog looks like:

Apr 14 13:07:38 ftp ftpd[24209]: ACCESS DENIED (not in any class) TO
207.242.212.2 [207.242.212.2]
Apr 14 13:07:38 ftp ftpd[24209]: FTP LOGIN REFUSED (access denied) FROM
207.242.212.2 [207.242.212.2], mmcvaradmin
Apr 14 13:07:38 ftp ftpd[24209]: FTP session closed

My ftpaccess file looks like:

class   local       guest,anonymous       207.242.212.2 163.228.*.*
class   remote      guest       *
class   anonymous   anonymous   *

#limit   guest       30   Any              /usr/local/lib/ftpd/guestlimit.msg
limit   local        30   Any              /usr/local/lib/ftpd/guestlimit.msg
limit   remote       30   Any              /usr/local/lib/ftpd/guestlimit.msg
limit   anonymous    30   Any              /usr/local/lib/ftpd/anonlimit.msg

guestgroup guest
guestgroup lguest

I did a bin/ckconfig to make sure all the files are there.  I've also done a
strings against the ftpd program to make sure its using the ftpaccess file I
think it is.  I'm running out of ideas.  Any help would be appreciated.

I'm thinking the problem is a bad build.  Try one of the prebuilt binaries
from my FTP site (be sure to chose the right one for your system).  ISTM
someone else had a similar problem a few weeks ago and it turned out to
the trusted/nontrusted HP/UX and a switch in src/config/config.hpx which
was making it hard to get the right version.  Let me know how the
prebuilts work.

It looks like the guest user isn't EXPLICITLY listed in /etc/group as
member of the group guest or lguest; be sure to check that.

Greg,

Someone else mentioned the Trusted thing too.  I checked the config.hpx file
from VR15 and it had TRUSTED undef, but in VR17 you have TRUSTED define.  I
changed it back to undef, and both anonymous and guest users work fine now.

Hi,

I'm using BeroFtpd 1.3.4 on Solaris 2.5.1.

How can we collect statistics on transfer times ?  Is there tools to
monitor the progress
of data transfer at different points?

Thank you,

Folks,

I am trying to build ftpd vr18 for Apple's MacOS X server. The system is BSD4.4.

I get malloc errors shown below. I can get rid of them by removing the
definitions in ftw.c I am not sure if that is a good thing to do.

Making support library.
cc -O -DDEBUG   -c ftw.c
ftw.c: In function `chwalk':
ftw.c:195: conflicting types for `malloc'
/System/Library/Frameworks/System.framework/Headers/bsd/stdlib.h:100:
previous declaration of `malloc'
make: *** [ftw.o] Error 1

The next error is:

MMaking support library.
rm -f libsupport.a
ar cq libsupport.a strcasestr.o authuser.o ftw.o
ranlib libsupport.a

Making ftpd.
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libc.a', needed by `ftpd'.  Stop.

Any ideas?
Thanks,

Hmm.  guess I should start coding it if you're compiling it already.  You
must mean VR17. :)

first off, it's possible that nobody's done a port for wu-ftpd on MacOS.
Is it really BSD or is it MacOS which looks a lot like BSD?  You may be
charting new groupnd here.

Some specific things to do:

ftw.c error: add the following line to the end of your
src/config/config.<os> file where <os> is whatever you're saying to the
build command:

#define NO_MALLOC_PROTO


make error: try changeing src/makefiles/Makefile.<os> where it reads

LIBC     = /usr/lib/libc.a

make it say simply

LIBC     =

I am new to WU-FTP. I first compiled 2.4.2-beta-13 and set up all
the config files etc. Everything worked fine. I then realised this
was an old version, so I upgraded to beta-18. I then heard about
a security problem that was fixed in the VR releases after 10, so
I went for the latest version - VR17. This works fine under Digital 
Unix, but my main server is an old RS6000 running AIX3.2. This
fails on compile as follows:-

make opts are :

then errors about not finding libsupport.a, which are obvious.

In both authuser.c and ftpd.c there is a "ifdef AIX" block that includes
both if_ether.h and net/if_dl.h. I do not have the latter on my system
and perhaps the former is different from what is expected. It looks
to me as if the AIX config files and makefiles are only tested for
AIX4.

Can anyone tell me what these include files are used for in the code,
or suggest any other fix for the AIX 3 systems.

Cheers, Brian.

I haven't worked on AIX3.2 for a while now, but I seem to recall that
the default C compiler shipped tended not to work so well.  I had lots
of trouble compiling things until I managed to compile the current version
of gcc and then used that with good success from then on.

I know that I probably didn't help much, but good luck.

I have reviewed the logs and see nothing immediately funky but that doesn't

Is anyone working on the above combination?  with v1.3.4, and
--enable-pam, it doesn't appear to do anything ... I have ssh with PAM
enabled, and it works fine, so my pam_modules are working fine...

If not, I'll most likely jump into this when I get back rom holidays...

Great, the only question I have is does this mean that the BeroFTPD and VR
stuff is going to be all merged into one happy family again?  I'm using
BeroFTPD here, and have no problems in changing back to just straight
wu-ftpd, but don't want to lose all the features...

I am using OpenLinx. I want to setup a guest ftp account, so that user can
only ftp but not telnet to the host, and user is only limited to his own
home directory and under, user can not browse the whole file system.

I read Michael Brennen's Guest-Howto, I changed the entry in /etc/passwd to
read like

may:x:500:500: p mayer:/home/may/./:/etc/ftponly

I put an entry  /etc/ftponly in /etc/shells

when logon, user is defaulted to his home instead of the root, but user
would still be able to use cd or ls to browser the whole file system.

Is there anything wrong with this? hope people who know the anwser could
give me a hand.

thanks for help

Hi Gregory:

	I tried to download VR17 from ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/ but got a
timeout error.  Is there a problem with this site?

	Also, I just heard of a security hole newly discussed by bugtraq and
wanted to know if VR17 fixes that hole.  Do you know anything about this new
hole?

Offline for a few.  I'm offsite, my people tell me it was a failure
somewhere.  You're reading this, it's back up.  My reply is taking a while
because I"m having to deal with PSI's typical lossage through NC (how they
can call 80% packet loss 'normal traffic' is beyond me) .. anyway ..



There was a posting yesterday on Bugtraq.  As near as I can tell, it was
about an attack directed at the realpath() bug.  The posting claimed to
work against all versions and derivitives of WU-FTPD, including
specificall VR. I can't get it to. Others on Bugtraq can't get it to.  
The author of the posting hasn't seen fit to do more than make that one
vague claim; no evidence, no daemon version numbers.  We (the wu-ftpd
group) are looking at the code to see if there's something else which
needs fixing.  All I can say right now is only one person has made a
claim, that claim looks unfounded, and he's not sharing. 

My bet, he doesn't even know which version of the daemon he's running.  He
may think he's running a VR version but here's his server's greeting:

220 dumb.admin.edu FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-18](1) Mon Aug 3 19:17:20 EDT 1998) ready.

[The name has been changed to protect the foolish.]

Um, isn't that the clean-build date and time from Redhat's RPM?  By golly,
I think it is.  Please, don't tell me the fool is complaining and he's
running a default-install from the RH CD.



Here's how the attack talked about in bugtraq works:

In a loop, MKD/CWD (make directory, create directory) until we're near the
limit MAXPATHLEN.  Do a MKD/CWD with the attack payload.  The payload
itself is not long enough to overflow a buffer.  It's trying to get the
daemon to overflow a buffer inside realpath() when rebuilding the full
pathname.

Let's say this attack does work.  Is there anything you can do to stop it?
Sure.  Don't allow world-writable directories in your FTP site.  Where you
must allow them, use proper upload clauses to limit the user's ability to
create subdirectories.

So, while there may be problems with the daemon (given the sorry state of
the code, can you blame it?) _this_ attack doesn't appear work and nobody
has any evidence there is one which _will_ work.

Subject: SDI-wu is NOT the worm

We've been very surprised by the last message with subject "WU-ftp worm",
which the author claims to be hit by a ftpd worm.

As the authors of the code attached in that message, we would like to
say that we have no connections with this worm and we've never seen such
code before. That means we do NOT have the code.

Sekure SDI is not a cracker group. Our exploit code has been made only for
testing purpose and it was NOT suppose to be released.

Also, we would like to make a little comment about the wu-ftpd exploit:

- The SDI-wu code needs some fixes to work in Red Hat and other linux
distribution. Script kiddies -> don't even try to run it!

- The first exploit released (made by duke - I think ADMwuftpd) will not
work. WU-ftpd will discard nulls characters so the return address
(bf ff f3 c0) will not be passed to the stack, which means we cannot
execute the instructions inserted in the buffer. It also will bring you to
the reason we've not coded the exploit in the ordinary way.

- Unlike the WU-ftp, the PROFTP will not accept some of the characters of
the standard shellcode and exploit code, so it's much more difficult to
exploit. I would say it's nearly impossible.

I've received a lot of message asking about how to use the exploit, bla
bla. We will NOT help kiddies with this tool.

At last, I would like to make clear that Sekure SDI has nothing to do with
this worm. Our goal is only to seek and provide security information.

    * PLEASE, updated your wu-ftpd to the newest version! *

Thank you,

Hi:

	I tried to compiled wu-ftpd 2.4.2 VR17 on SGI IRIX 6.2 and got errors:

	How should I fix this?

	By the way, will the SGI build (documentation says it is for SGI Irix
4.0.5a work for IRIX 6.2?

Mona,

getusershell and endusershell are in the support directory directory of
the wu-ftpd distribution.  Make sure your Makefile adds the -L../support
line and includes the -lsupport library.

Our public wu-ftpd server (2.4.2-vr16 on RedHat 5.2) is sitting behind
an Iproute box that does address translation and packet-filtering for
us. The ftp server has a private IP address behind the Iproute box. All
outbound traffic is permitted by the packet filter. Only inbound packets
on specific ports are permitted. Pretty standard stuff, I think.

We discovered yesterday that we had problems with FTP clients that ran
in passive mode. After doing a little research, we:

 - added the following lines to the /etc/ftpaccess file:

   passive address 192.168.2.112  192.168.2.0/24
   passive address 206.123.123.123 0.0.0.0/0
   passive ports 0.0.0.0/0 33300 33350

   The intent was that internal clients would see the private
   address. External clients would see the public address (which gets
   translated 192.168.2.112). We also configured the packet-filter to
   allow port range 33300-33350 inbound for the client connects to the
   server data port.

Unfortunately, when we attempt a passive connection from an external
ftp client, we see the following:

petunia:~>ftp ftp.whatever.com
Connected to ftp.whatever.com.
220 gatekeeper.whatever.com FTP server ready.
Name (ftp.whatever.com:smith): ftp
331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.

ftp> pass
Passive mode on.
ftp> dir
227 Entering Passive Mode (206,123,123,123,139,128)
ftp: connect: Connection refused


>From an external address, I can telnet to 206.123.123.123 on all ports
in the range 33300 to 33350, so I know that the packet filter is
passing the packets. What's very strange is that when I run "netstat
-a" on the ftp server after running the PASV command, I see the
following entry:

Active Internet connections (including servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State
tcp        0      0 206.123.123.123:35712   *:*                     LISTEN

So the server IS listening on the data port, but why is the "Local
Address" the EXTERNAL IP address (203.123.123.123), and not the internal
(192.168.2.112) address? Does this imply that the ftp server is somehow
listening on another address? Even from the internal network, with the
listening connection as above, I cannot complete the transfer with
"telnet 192.168.2.112 35712": I get "connection refused".

In the ftpaccess man page, the relevant note says:

 "NOTE: this does not change the address the daemone actually lis-
  tens on, only the address reported to the client.  This feature
  allows the daemon to operate correctly behind IP-renumbering
  firewalls."

Any suggestions as to why external ftp clients are unable to connect
in passive mode? I've scanned the archives and cannot find anything
that seems relevant to my experience.
  
Thanks in advance,
  
Paul

First point:  Your server is set up incorrectly.  You're using NAT and the
bind() to the outside address was successful.  That means the machine has
an interface listening on the external address.  You don't want that.  It
defeats the purpose of NAT.  Probably it's a leftover from before using
VR16.

What you should be seeing is:

425 Can't open passive connection: Cannot assign requested address.

Use ifconfig to determine which interface is listening on the wrong
address block.  Disable that interface immedeately with ifconfig and
correct the startup scripts of the machine so it doesn't come back.


Second point:  Guess what.  You're right.  The wrong address is being
bind()'d.  Here's a patch for VR16.  If the patch won't apply cleanly,
it's because of whitespace.  I've put it in my FTP site if you need a
clean copy:

Greg,

Great support! I sent my question on a Friday night at 10:30PM, and had
an answer three hours later.

The patch worked fine, and I can now do passive ftp transfers correctly.
I'll look into the interface problem you mention.

Cheers,

Paul

I just spent the past hour going through the VIRTUAL.* doc file trying to

says all you have to do for a virtual host is set 'root <root-dir>'...this
didn't work, so I scanned through the ftpaccess.5 man page, and found that
it has to have 'anonymous-root' set for this to work...

Might be someone wants to fix? :(

Hi again...

	This one I can't seem to find anything on in the man page...the
'logfile' directive that the VIRTUAL.* file points out doesn't appear to
work, as all logging is going to /usr/local/log/xferlog instead of the
specific file I've put in the directive....

	Syntax change?

Just to add to the above, the ftpaccess man page fails to mention the
'passwd' and 'shadow' clauses, and, more seriously, BeroFTPD itself
doesn't quite support the virtual passwd file feature on FreeBSD when
installed 'out of the box'.  I spent the last few days fixing this and
several other problems:

- When compiled with --enable-passwd, it should read /etc/master.passwd
instead of /etc/passwd (or, alternatively, configure should detect
master.passwd and enable shadow password support). 

- Parsing of the FreeBSD passwd file needed some changes because of the
class/change/expire fields, and the shell had an extra character
erroneously appended to it, causing the lookup in /etc/shells to fail.

- When the upload clause is set to chown the uploaded file to the uid/gid
of the directory, the upload would die with 'Permission denied' as soon as
it began.  Also, mkdir'ed directories were not being chowned at all.

- Changed the order of some operations during the login phase to check in
ftpusers _before_ looking up the account in the passwd file.

- Added a bit of extra functionality that made sense to me -- use the
'root' clause in ftpaccess, if present, to chroot() real users to the
given path.  Currently 'root' is only used when compiled with OLDVIRT.

I've tested all of these changes on my system and they all appear to do
the right thing, though I don't know if/how they might affect guest users
because I don't use that feature.  I contacted Bernhard a few days ago
regarding submitting patches but I've yet to receive a reply.

I was running 2.4.2 - beta 18 on my Solaris 2.5.1 box - when we had some
problem with the ftp server.
I shutdown the ftp server, then attempted to restart it. However, it did
not restart. I found the following message in my log files:

<nodename> ftpd[459]: getpeername (/usr/sbin/ftpd): Invalid argument

I upgraded to 2.4.2 Final on the same box, recompiled and installed (
note: it couldn't ranlib -- probably because ranlibs path was not in my
env path ). At any rate I get:

<nodename> ftpd[548]: getpeername (/usr/sbin/ftpd): Invalid argument


I am typing : /usr/sbin/ftpd -aioldD at the command prompt.
I have also tried to restart the process via inetd.conf - no go there
either.

thanks,
Jason

Dear Scrappy,
 Went thru this same discovery process not to
long ago when I upgraded my Beta Virtual operation
to BeroFTPD. So use anonymous-root instead of
root as you discovered. Need to add
--enable-oldvirt to configure command to get
logfile directive working. Bernhard said he 
would add anonymous-logfile and guest-logfile
directives to version 1.3.5 and update docs when
I pointed this problem out.

Jason,

There are two locations in the ftpd. c code where getpeername is called.
One is for deamon processing and the second is for inetd processing.
These are determined by the compile switch on the makefile or the config.h
include header.

Probably would make sense to determine which of these two you are trying
to fight.  If it's from the inetd process, this is determined prior to any
of the ftpd arguments being scanned off of the input line - so the options
should not be entering the picture yet.

I suspect this is NOT ftpd related - but a larger issue in your solaris
system.   You may want to verify some of your solaris settings.  Probably
the first one I would look at is to verify your default route is set on
that box.  This is some thing that "could change" across a boot - and
drive you absolutely crazy.

Hope this helps.

I love Unix, the unexpected always pops up to make things interesting.

I have a Sun box running SunOS 5.6
I was attempting to install wu-ftpd per the instructions at
http://smc.vnet.net/ , FAQ section, Question 8.  I got done with all the
instructions and discovered my web pages are no longer accessible.  I've
restored the inetd.conf to the original and restarted inetd, and the problem
persists.

After over a year with Unix, I am still a neophyte.  Any help is GREATLY
appreciated.

I don't know what the instructions are since you didn't give a full URL
and the site is not usable to Lynx.

I'll assume it told you to revoke world-read and/or world-execute
permissions on some or all of the files or directories in your user's
homes.  If so, say "Ooopsie", and put 'em back.  Most HTTP servers will
only handle files which are world readable.  If you want the files only
available over HTTP (and not over FTP) you'll have to redesign the
directory layout and permissions.

It's slow enough to be hard to use anyway..  I just looked at it appears
that he has installed beta-15.  Not a good idea anyway. It seems he has not
paid any attention to the security announcements.

FWIW, here are the steps in the FAQ he is talking about, and I can't see
how any of this would have affected a Web server unless he did something
else he's not telling us about.

In any case, Greg is correct in the paragraph above. http and ftp can be
difficult (or impossible) to mix due to the varying permissions requirements. 

Q8:

      I want to install wu-ftpd on my system. What are the steps? 

      A8:

      Suman Malla and Detlef Mauritz took the wu-ftpd binary from this site
      and performed the following steps. Details may vary with your site.
      There is now a version that installs in /usr/local. Be careful to make
      copies of any files you may change. It is very important that you read
      the the documentation for more help. 

      1. create directory: /opt/WUftpd
      2. pkgadd -d wu-ftpd-2.4
      3. vi /opt/WUftpd/etc/ftpaccess
         create the following lines:
           class   all  real,guest  *
           guestgroup ftpguests
         to allow only ftp-access for real-user and guest-user, not for
         anonymous; the guest-user
         have to be a member of the group ftpguests
      4. create the group "ftpguests" in /etc/group
      5. create the user-account, the line in passwd-file has to look like:
           guestuser:x:1069:15:Guest FTP-user:/home/guestuser/./anydir:/bin/ksh
           - where 15 is the id of the group ftpguests
           - the directory /home/guestuser is the root directory of this user
      6. vi /etc/inetd.conf
         change line:
           ftp    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/in.ftpd      
           in.ftpd
         to:
           ftp    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /opt/WUftpd/etc/ftpd    ftpd
           -d
      7. restart inetd
      8. create the following directories and files:
         (you can copy them from /export/ftp)

The wu-ftpd version on that site is *OLD* and should be replaced with
a newer version.

I can't find a FAQ on wu-ftpd at http://smc.vnet.net/ and question 8 in
the FAQ on wu-ftpd I maintain is on a different subject.

Download the newest version from
ftp.academ.com:/pub/wu-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.2.tar.Z

Oh and that faq is at

Sounds like something in the access for the files of the webserver. wu-ftpd
has nothing to do with it (although a better definition of "no longer
accessible" could help to answer this question).

I got it fixed.  Somehow, I have no idea how, the server_user got changed in
the httpd.conf file.  I changed it back and now it works.

/home/username                      this is were they go when they login
/home/username/public_html    i want them to be in this dir when they login

I dont know if this is the right the place to ask this question, if now can
someone please point me in the right directions.   I have two machines
connected on a network.  One is running the apache and mail  and the other
is running ftp.  Is there a way that i can have both machines Authenticate
from one passwd file?  The apache and mail computer has all the users on its
passwd file.  Does anyone know how to do this?  Or know were i can find out
how to do this?  Thanks you guys

you have two choices:

- move the chroot point so it's unique for each user.  this is a pain to
  set up and can be a bigger pain to maintain

- upgrade to VR17 and read the ftpaccess manpage section about
  'restrict-uid'

neither will allow you to start them in a given directory and change to
others at the same level (in your example below, from
/home/username/./public_html to /home/username/./privatestuff).  if you
need that, what you have is what you get because the problem cannot be
solved on the FTP server .. it's a user training / web browser issue.

Radius.

If you're running a machine which supports PAM (Linux, solaris and
another, HP/UX, I think) upgrade to VR17, install the PAM radius module
(don't ask me where to get it, don't know) and run Radius on the mail
server.

Any other machine, happy hacking.

...or DCE, but I digress ;-)

RADIUS is a reasonable answer that integrates the most readily with
existing OSes/servers/apps with a bare minimum of additional code in
more places than any of the other distributed computing environments.
(DCE, NIS, CORBA, etc)

That said, I now return you to our ftpd discussion :)

I got no useful replies. Today I looked at this again. I just commented
out the include lines for if_ether.h and if_dl.h in both authusers.c and
ftpd.c. It then compiled fine with both the AIX cc and gcc. It appears to
run OK. Have I done anything stupid re security by doing this. Could the
VR developers comment on what this include files do?

Another problem was that ./build install gave:-

make args are : 
make opts are : 
installing binaries.
sh: test: 0402-017 Specify a parameter with this command.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Make Quitting.

I installed by hand. I do not understand this error message.

Cheers, Brian.

Hi,

I'm currently running VR15 on TSOL 2.5.1.

I will eventually have a bunch of users that I will need to chroot to a
common point and then restrict to their individual home directories.
But, I'm having some difficulties getting the upload statements to
behave as I'd like.  What I want to do is to only allow the users to
upload files to their individual IN directories.  Each user's incoming
directory would have the form /ftp/users/userX/IN where userX is unique
for each user.  I hope that there's a way to do this so that one upload
clause will apply to all of the users, instead of having to use one
clause for each user.  I'd like to have all uploaded files be owned by
user "ftptest" and match the group ID of the user who uploads the file.

Here's the relevant snippet from my current ftpaccess file:

guest-root    /ftp/users    %5000-5999
restricted-uid    %5000-5999
upload    absolute    /ftp/users/*    /IN    yes    ftptest    *
0640    nodirs

However, I definitely don't have the upload clause correct.  I've tried
a number of variations and read all the relevant FAQ's and how-to's I
could find, but to no avail.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to
do this?

Thanks,
Scott

Hi,

I would like to set different FTP file access permissions for several 
groups on directories.

Suppose I have 2 directories dir1 and dir2 and I want to create :

- group1 who has W access to dir1 and dir2
- group2 who has W access to dir1 only
- group3 who has R access to dir1 and dir2
- group4 who has R access to dir1 only
- group5 who has R&W access to dir1 and dir2
- group6 who has R&W access to dir1 only

Is it possible to implement that with WU-FTP (with ACL since I am using 
Solaris ?) or do I need another package ?

Thanks in advance for your help.			Gildas.

Hi,

I am trying to setup an ftp server. When I login as anonymous I can list all the 
directories and files under the ftp home. Is there any way I can restrict the 
users to list these directories/files but they should be able to do cd(change 
directory) if they know the name of the directory. 

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rakesh

I'm trying to configure the ability for anonymous users to upload
to a 'private' pre-established directory, in other words from
the parent dir, anonymous can *not* see the child(ren).  Once
in the child they can only put files, they can't see or read
what others might have put (aka blind put).  Below are the 
entries from my /etc/ftpaccess and the output from a 
ls -al from the parent, i.e. incoming.  Right now this
errors with permission denied (Upload).


upload   /ftp                       *      no
upload   /ftp/pub/incoming          *      no

FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ (1)
from the file wu-ftpd-2.4.2.tar.Z.

Is that the latest version?  What's the difference between
that version and the VR series?



TIA,
Chad

Does anyone have Examples for using guestgroup command in wu-ftp v17.  I've
created a user, when I ftp in with this account Wu-ftp will not chroot to
the users home dir.  I also have a group call ftpadmins which ftpuser belong
to . The ftpaccess file looks like this
passwd:
ftpuser:X:test user:/home/./ftpuser/:/bin/false


CLASS	 DSG	 REAL	*.DSG.COM

guestgroup  ftpadmins


I thought this would chroot the user to /home then CD them to there home
directory. This is not working for me.

Thanks Ray

'ftpuser' must be a member of 'ftpadmins' .. explicitly listed in
/etc/group (membership by default in /etc/passwd doesn't count)

the chroot and cd occurs, but if you're using a web browser you won't see
the cd since the first thing the browsers do is 'CWD /'

If the user is in /ftp/users/etc/passwd and you've set their home there,
you should be OK.  Otherwise, you'll need to use a match against their
entry in the real /etc/passwd homedir.

World-read permissions on a directory control whether anonymous FTP users

Main difference: a maintainer who fixes the code, an answers questions.

Other differences: about a year and a half of coding, correcting and
bugfixing.  For details, read the FIXES* files.

Most important difference from youre point of view: it fixes the bug
you're fighting.

Hi, just went out and downloaded your latest and greatest ftp 2.4.2.
Glancing at what is there, I didn't see any notes on Y2K.  Has  there been
any y2k testing down on it at all?  Since its public, its use at your own
risk, but I had heard that 2.4 was not y2k compliant.  Any input on this
issue?

Thanks,

Ann Adams

I read a great response to this question a couple of days ago.  This
answer serves for Wu-FTPD as well as the package it was originally posted
about.

Other responses I've seen point out that Unix software generally does not
have problems with dates (except, of course, the The Day the World Shall
End: January 18, 2038); simply asking the question shows a lack of
understanding of Unix.

My personal favorite response is: Who knows?  Who care?  Nobody seems to
know what the Y2K problem is, or what Y2K compliance means.  You cannot
comply with a standard unless a standard has been set, and there is no
definition for the term 'Y2K compliance' nor a standard for 'Y2K
compliance' to which one might adhere.

Be thankful you have the source code available to you.  Any so-called
'statement of compliance' from a vendor who will not provide the source
code is completely worthless; they don't know what it means to you, you
don't know what standard they're complying to, and you have no recourse if
it turns out you think something is broken (read their statements, they
invariable say, in effect, "We don't think it's broken, but don't bother
us about it if it is because we don't know what you're talking about").
With source code at least you can check it first and fix it later if
something breaks.

Where should you look in the source code?  I don't know.  The FTP protocol
doesn't use dates or even times, except in a couple of commentary strings
sent to the remote user.  If there's a problem in them it's probably the
remote client's problem not the server's.  I will point out that a change
was made a couple of years ago to support a perticular broken client's
(mis)interpretation of one of these responses.  That change probably
represents the entire set of date or time related modifications made to
the daemon.

Hi,

I'm trying to compile wu-ftpd 2.4.2 for virtual servers.  If I compile
it straight out of the box with "./build sgi" it works fine.  I get
warnings, but no errors.  If I add the "-DVIRUTAL" flag as explained in
http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/virtual-ftp-faq.html I get fatal
errors.  Can anyone give me any pointers?

TIA

<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE>If the user is in /ftp/users/etc/passwd and you've

Well, I finally got the upload clause to work using:

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; upload&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; absolute&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
/ftp/users/*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /*/IN&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; yes&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
ftptest&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 0640&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; nodirs

<P>But, in the process, I also needed to make the following change in ftpd.c:

<P><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /* if we have a uid and gid, then use them. */</TT><TT></TT>

<P><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if (valid > 0) {</TT>
<BR><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; oldid = geteuid();</TT>
<BR><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; delay_signaling(); /*
we can't allow any signals while euid==0: kinch */</TT>
<BR><TT>-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (void) seteuid((uid_t) 0);</TT>
<BR><TT>+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (void) seteuid((uid_t) uid);</TT>
<BR><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if ((fchown(fdout, uid,
gid)) &lt; 0) {</TT>
<BR><TT>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ...</TT>

<P>So far I haven't noticed any side effects from not being root.&nbsp;
I believe this is necessary because _POSIX_CHOWN_RESTRICTED is apparently
not defined by default for Trusted Solaris, and it affects the fchown()
call.&nbsp; Or if it is defined, I can't find it.&nbsp; Anyway, you may
want to consider adding an #ifdef-else clause for the seteuid() call to
handle both cases.

Greg, thanks for the tip.  I was afraid someone would suggest this. 
I've tried gcc 2.8.1, and I'm having trouble compiling that also.  The
stage2 and stage3 compilers don't compare.  If you happen to have a
pre-built binary lying around...?  Or gcc2.7.x that I can compile 2.8.1
with?

I'll go back to gcc and see what I can figure out....

Thanks

I used to have someone providing pre-built binaries for the VR series.  I
haven't heard from him in a while, though.  I don't run Irix, so cannot
help you with them myself.

Since there are Sun binaries for gcc on the net, I'd be astonished if there
were no SGI binaries available.  I'd do a Web search if I were you.

dear wu-ftpd-users

i've installed wu-ftpd (2.4.2) on a suse-linux (2.0.36). My /u/www/ftp
directory
has the following structure:

u/www/ftp/bin/ls
/u/www/ftp/etc/group
/u/www//ftp/etc/passwd
/u/www/ftp/pub/                      

When i login as anonymous-ftp-user i can connect to the
/u/www/ftp-directory but i can't see the files and directorys stored there.

to make sure that i do not have any permission problems i set all files and
directorys open. the user ftp is in the passwd
file and points to /u/www/ftp. There seems to be a problem with the
'ls'-command. I'm able to (blind)-download the files in the ~ftp/pub.
what did i wrong ???? (any cofiguration files ???)

thanx alot for your help

On our system the default umask is set to 077.  I wonder if there 
is a way to set the default umask to 022 just for files created
in the ~/public_html directories of our real users.  This would
save the trouble of doing a chmod for PC users who want to
"publish" their web documents.  If this is not possible, I wonder 
if a different default umask can be specified for a virtual
domain so that the users may use a this domain for publishing.

Thanks in advance!

Hubert,

Most likely you're using a statically linked ls without the proper
libraries.  This has happened to me on my RH Linux boxes.  Check out:

HELP!! I've been trying to compile WU-FTP 2.4.2 V18 on IRIX 6.4 and had no
results. I think part of the problem is the pathnames.h file it currently
reads as follows:

So what's the symptom of the problem?  What version of the daemon are you
trying to compile?  Someone else was having problems a day or two ago; his
looks like it's a lame compiler.  Which compiler/version are you
attempting to use?

The location of the latest version of wu-ftpd can be found in the

Subject: no login message on Solaris
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hello,

I had wu-ftp running on SunOS for about 2 years.
Now I installed version "wu-2.4(2) Wed Oct 8 " on Solaris2.5

Everything looks good and ftp is running since a couple of days.
ckconfig feels completely satisfied.

Now I found that login via ftp (anonymous or real) is not logged by the
system. I mean 'last ftp' shows nothing. This was not so on SunOS.

Is this correct? I really have checked the manual but found nothing.
What still do I have to do to log ftp-logins like 'normal' logins do?

Thanks for help,
Ralph Tremmel

hi,

i'm configuring a wuftp (2.4.2 VR17) server with guests accounts and the
-r option.
it works great but i'm a bit surprised with something with overwriting
and uploading :

   i have these lines in my ftpaccess :
                    ...
                overwrite yes guest
                    ...
                upload  /     /*/incoming yes * 501   0660 nodirs
                upload  /*   /*/outgoing yes *  502  0240 nodirs
                upload  /     *  no
                upload  /*   *  no

    the user 4001 has the homedirectory  :  /4001
    the user 5001 has the homedirectory  :  /

    i touch a random file in /4001/incoming :
               -rw-------   1  5001     500      2380 Apr 27 11:23
y1RHOCx

    here are the attributes of /4001/incoming :
                drwx--x--x   2  4001     500       512 Apr 27 11:18
incoming

    when a the guest user 5001 type the command 'put  a_file  y1RHOCx',
the attributes become :
               -rw-------   1  4001     500      2380 Apr 27 11:23
y1RHOCx

so the owner of the file has changed (as specified in the upload line in
ftpaccess, i guess), but the rights should be 0660 ?

i wonder if an overwrite is considered as an upload ?


thanks for any advise


Charles Bruneteau

I just loaded an wu-ftp (2.4.2- beta-13) on sun OS 2.5.1, when I ftp as an
anonymous ftp, I get a login failure
with the  following message: 550 can't set guest privileges. The error entry
in the /var/adm/messages was pointing
to a none existent /var/adm/wtmp file which is not true,
Any suggestion
Thanks

Please check your version number.  If you are running 2.4 you should
immedeately upgrade to the latest version.  there are so many security
problems with 2.4 you should discontinue FTP operations until you have
completed the upgrade.

ISTM Sun's 'last' commands are broken and cannot be trusted.

Here's the comment I added to the source for VR17 about this:

My recomendation: If you want this fixed properly, upgrade to a version of

I can confirm that from personal experience over the last 4 years. (But
then Greg already included my comments..) Version 2.7 (7) of Solaris seems
to have fixed it, but I still do not trust it.

ISTM overwrite should be considered an upload at least for the question,
"May I upload?"  Passing that it should obey existing ownerships and
permissions and not change those.

I just tested and, sure enough, you're right.  The upload clause is
resetting the owner user/group.  Everything else seems OK (upload check,
permissions check, permissions unchanged).

*sigh*

First off, you should upgrade.  Beta-13 is very old and has a number of
security problems.

What was the exact message in your system log?  And did you see my posting
a few minute ago about Sun's lame Unix systems' handling of wtmp and the
last command?

    Hello Gurus,

I just install the wu-ftp 2.4.2 , and I got now a problem with the
anonymous user : as I login anonymous with ftp, I can not get the
listing of all the directory ( like pub ) : the command is successfull
but I see anything ...

    Any Idea ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Pierre.

    Thanks to
       hubert.ming@iggi.lu.ch,
       lundberg+wuftpd@vr.ne

    The answer is that wu_ftp is looking for ls in the ~ftp/bin/ls, but in
my distribution ls is in the ~ftp/usr/bin/ !
A simple link ln -s ~ftp/usr/bin/ ~ftp/bin solve the problem ... But the
way wu_ftp is showing that it do not find the command is not really clear
, in the first time I suspected a security problem in the ftpaccess file.

    Thanks again,
    Pierre.

Hi,
I have downloaded wuftp (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-18-VR14](1) from
www.bull.de/pub/aix432) and I'm trying to see if it can fullfill my
"wishes".

I would like to create a ftp server in AIX and have different users
accessing only their home directories (to chroot to $HOME).

Let say the anonymous ftp has its root dir in /home/ftp. When another user,
let say kalle, is ftp'ing to the machine he should be seeing
/home/ftp/kalle only and nothing above that.

I've been trying to access information about wuftp to accomplish that, but
haven't found anything that helps......

The issue I have is that I'll get to /home/ftp/kalle, but I can still do a
"cd .." and see the directories above $HOME of the kalle. I can even go
down in other users $HOME which is what I want to prevent.

This is my config :
-------------

/etc/inetd.conf:
ftp     stream  tcp4    nowait  root    /usr/local/bin/ftpd     ftpd -a

/etc/passwd (all AIX users defined):

#   ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec to get this to work.....
compress        yes             all

Thanks for your answer

Actually i'm looking for the upload behavior : i don't want to allow file
creation in this directory, so overwriting an empty  file seems to be the
solution. Furthermore the user who transfer a file to this directory (and
other users from the same group) should not be able to read this file (or
any real file in the directory), this is where the upload behavior is
important.

In fact the actual behavior solves my problem, but i don't want to use a
"functionnality" which may be altered in future releases.

There are perhaps more elegant ways (I'm relatively new at this too),
but if you move the "/./" to after kalle and after otto in /etc/passwd,
you should get what you need - i.e.:

kalle:!:214:201::/home/ftp/kalle/./:/etc/ftponly
otto:!:215:201::/home/ftp/otto/./:/etc/ftponly

Hope this helps,

Steve

I'm planning on doing a patch today which will prevent ownership
user/group changes when upload overwrites an existing file.

hi,

i compiled recently the VR17 on solaris 2.6 using the pam authentication
flag (USE_PAM) that was in the linux config. It seems to work very well
but i haven't  seen anything about this on the list; have someone tested
it ?

Hi,
Sorry if my questions seems a bit silly but I've only just started along the
Unix path a few months ago, at what point do you specify the USE_PAM flag.

On another note, I remember reading a previous question about using shadow
support. How can I verify that I am using shadow support with wu-ftpd, I've
just recently compiled wu-ftpd 2.4.2 vr17 on solaris 2.6 as per the INSTALL
instructions and everything seems fine although I would be interested in
knowing more about what options/flags I can set. The INSTALL file doesn't
specify this (I could be wrong here)

Thanks in advance

Nellie

I'm getting syslogs messages from ftpd that I don't understand.

ftpd[20693]: sleeping: fcntl lock of pid file failed: Resource 
temporarily unavailable

These can occur several times a day. Should I be concerned?

Also, I was wondering about these messages:

ftpd[798]: getpeername (/bin/ftpd): Connection reset by peer

This doesn't sound too bad. Is it?


I'm running wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-18-VR14] under Solaris 2.5.1.

Maybe, but probably not.  If your system is heavily used, you should see
these.  If it's normally idle, something might be wrong.

If the messages are annoying, there's a compile-time option in VR17 to
suppress them.  (Might be in VR14 you're running, don't remember when I
put it in.)

No.  Someone went away leaving the TCP connection half-open.

There are some attacks which do this.  If you're seeing it very often, get
a packet sniffer and take a look at what's being dropped on you.  Often
times it's just lousy network connections, but it pays to be paranoid.
Check with your vendor, CERT and Bugtraq sites; if your kernel is
vulnerable to half-open TCP attacks (ie., older Linux .. dunno about
Solaris) look for vendor patches to harden the system.

I'm using Linux 2.2.6 with wu-ftp and Apache 1.3.6. I am attempting 
to set up a secure (reasonably secure??) ftp ability into the apache 
htdocs area so we can ftp in the web stuff. I've got it 'pretty well' 
set up - meaning I can get documents out and new ones it but am 
unable to overwrite or erase docs within the htdocs directory. I 
feels like I'm mssing a simple piece but I can't figure out what that 
piece is. Thanks in advance -- Ashe Coutts.
P.S. is there a book or different description other than the 
atpaccess man page. It is somewhat clear but, obviously, a little too 
esoteric for me -- Thanks


Thought for the day:
  I want to move to Theory, everything works in Theory

The upload.configuration.HOWTO should help a lot.  It's in the VR17
release kit and my FTP site.

This will fix the problem but at the cost of having to set up bin, etc,
dev, lib (at al) areas in each user's home directory.

Here's how to do it using full-on VR17 .. what?  you're not running VR17?
Well upgrade, silly:

The location of the latest versions of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory
 
      ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/
 
wu-ftpd Resource Center:  http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
wu-ftpd FAQ:              http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html
wu-ftpd list archive:     http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/



First, read the FAQ and the guest HOWTO.  Set up a user, just one for now,
as a guest just like they tell you to.  Make sure it works, ls et al, and
they're chroot'd .. don't worry about the ability to browse other users'
homes yet.

Now, take a look at your users.  You want them all to be guests.  Are they
all in the same area (/home/ftp ?)  Yes.  Good.  Add the following lines
to your ftpaccess:

guestuser *
realuser ftp
guest-root /home/ftp

This says "Everyone is a guest except anonymous FTP users, and all guests
are chroot'd to /home/ftp."

BTW, you can lose the '/./' hack in /etc/passwd after you do this: the
daemon won't care any more.  And take out the guestgroup clause and the
group from /etc/groups .. the daemon won't be using them any more either.

Now, your users can still look in each others' homes.  Not good.  Let's
stop it.  Add the following to your ftpaccess:

restricted-uid *

"Everybody is restricted to their home directory."  Except anonymous
users who are not effected by this clause.

One last thing: make sure the home directory entries in
/home/ftp/etc/passwd are correct >>from the point of view of the chroot<<
for example:

kalle::214:201::/kalle:
otto::215:201::/otto:

After you do all this, if any of your users were coming in via Navigator
or IE, they will need to click 'Refresh' to get a new copy of their FTP
areas .. the cached copies are now wrong.

Greg,

Thanks for the amplification on my reply (I should have mentioned the
various support files).

Thanks also for your more rigorous solution - a great template for the
structure I'm currently setting up.

Have I understood correctly? Do you recommend this scheme
as a general way of setting up guest users, or just in
this particular case?

If so, it seem to remove the useful concept of a guest
user, i.e. something in-between anonymous and real,
whom you can tie down to a fixed directory and view of
the world.

Whereas I want to be able to make my "real" users
have as much access as they would if they were logging in.

I recommend:

 - NO REAL USERS.  Nadda.  Zip.  Zero.  Everyone is a guest and if they
   don't like it tell 'em to go buy their own copy of Linux and stop
   bothering you 'cause you got a system to keep running.  If they wanna
   Trojan your system, make log in so you _KNOW_ it was them.

 - OK, so _one_ real user .. You, the ftp site administrator.  But only if
   you trust yourself.  Be honest, though.  You shouldn't even be using
   FTP you should be using ssh/scp to manage the machine, so what's the
   problem?

 - All guest users be chroot'd to a common point so you don't have a whole
   mess of copies of bin/ls bin/tar etc/passwd and so forth.  Life's hard
   enough, why make it harder?

 - All users, real or guest, be restricted to their home directories.  If
   they need to share files, mount a common filesystem in each of their
   homes.

With VR17, you don't have three types of users any more.  You have FIVE.
Or you can think of it as two different ways to chroot a user.

1) Anonymous users, chroot'd to the anonymous area

2) Restricted guest users, chroot'd to a common point and restricted to
   their homes .. to the user it looks like they're chroot'd to their
   home.

3) Unrestricted guest users, chroot'd to a common point.  They can browse
   each other's homes to their heart's content but cannot reach outside
   the chroot'd area.

4) Restricted real users.  Not chroot'd but restricted to their homes
   anyway.  It will look to them like they're chroot'd but they're not.
   You can do this, but I don't think it's very safe.

5) Unrestricted real users.  Not chroot'd and not restricted.  Any fool
   who does this deserves exactly what he's gonna get .. hacked.

I'm saying a well-managed FTP site has any number of users of type (1) and
(2) but no more than a single person, the ftpadmin, as type (4).

Hello,

It started on Monday, after we upgraded Solaris 2.5 to Solaris 2.6 (on the

Before we never had a problem with ftp server.

I checked /passwd, /group files, and everything is the same... I cannot see
any changes...

Any hints, help?

Help!

I am in the process of upgrading our version of wu-ftpd to the latest and
greatest release, and I am having one hell of a time getting the
guestgroup/guest-root/restricted-gid commands to work. 

What we would like to have is all guest-users locked into their home
directories (via restricted-gid), and then have one common root directory
for all guest users (via guest-root).

Example: User has the following NIS+ entry
std:PASSWD:103:50001::/export/home/std:/usr/local/bin/bash:10689::::::

So when this user logs in we would like to chroot to /export/home, and have
this user locked into the directory std. (*I realize this can be done by
using guestgroup and the '/./' hack of the passwd entry, but we have way to
many entries to be attempting this.*)

As I understand all the documentation, if I specify the following in
ftpaccess:
guest-root 	/export/home *
restricted-gid	ituser

Restricted-gid locks user into account and seems to work fine, but
guest-root which should chroot to /export/home, and then look up the user in
/export/home/etc/passwd doesn't appear to work at all. (User will end up in
home directory but can browse the entire file system.)

(? should guest-root work with NIS+, if /export/home/etc/nsswitch.conf
points to nisplus ? )

The only way I have been able to accomplish what I want is by setting the
following in ftpaccess:
guest-group 	ituser
guest-root 	/export/home
restriced-gid	ituser

Then in the subdirectory of /export/home, I created soft links:
ln -s . export
ln -s . export/home

Is there a better way to be doing this ? What else am I doing wrong ?

Thanks,
David Stringer

PS. I have done the following:
* Read the faq
* Searched the mail archives
* Set up my directories properly
* Have ran ftpck1.1.1 against our configuration
So I really am at my wits end!!!

I think you will find that Solaris is starting up an FTP server for you
(awfully nice of you).  Do a 'ps -ef' (or 'ps aux', I don't know Solaris),
and grep for 'ftp', and you will probably find it running someplace.

Getting rid of it is a different story.  I am an HP and Linux tech-head, not
a Solaris one.

Hello,
We getting error message:  <<425 Can't create data socket
(142.148.10.35,20): Address already in use.>>
It started on Monday, after we upgraded Solaris 2.5 to Solaris 2.6 (on the
weekend).  
Before we never had a problem with ftp server.

I checked /passwd, /group files, and everything is the same... I cannot see
any changes...

Any hints, help?

Hi,

I am still trying to contact them with beroftpd-users@aachen.linux.de and 
bero@microsoft.sucks.eu.org without answers.

BeroFTP (ftp://ftp.bero.x5.net/pub/) is a great replacement of Wu-FTP but I 
have the following problems :

1) I would to limit the scale of passive data ports with the directive :

passive ports 193.149.97.0/24 60000 80000

I try to connect from 193.149.97.10 and I have :
Passive mode refused.

and in the logs :

Apr 15 16:55:57 antonomase ftpd[27197]: command: PASV
Apr 15 16:55:57 antonomase ftpd[27197]: PASV
Apr 15 16:55:57 antonomase ftpd[27197]: <--- 425 Can't open passive 
connection: Resource temporarily unavailable.

2) Furthermore, how can I limit the ports for all IPs ? Is it 0.0.0.0/0  for 
all IPs ? If I put :

passive ports 0.0.0.0/0 60000 80000

the directive doesn't seem to be valid since allocated data ports in passive 
mode are still not between 60000 adn 80000. Any idea about that problem ?

3) I would like to set different FTP file access permissions for several 
groups
on directories.

Suppose I have 2 directories dir1 and dir2 and I want to create :

- group1 who has W access to dir1 and dir2
- group2 who has W access to dir1 only
- group3 who has R access to dir1 and dir2
- group4 who has R access to dir1 only
- group5 who has R&W access to dir1 and dir2
- group6 who has R&W access to dir1 only

Is it possible to implement that with BeroFTP or do I need another package ?

Thanks in advance.			Gildas.

Greg,

Thanks for the amplification on my reply (I should have mentioned the
various support files).

Thanks also for your more rigorous solution - a great template for the
structure I'm currently setting up.

Hi Magda,

Is wu-ftpd configured to run via inetd (inetd.conf) or in standalone
mode?

Then there is something i don't get :
overwrite, chmod, etc. are flags controlling what a user can do, before (?)
checking the filesystem permissioning. I guess that when a user wants to rename
a file to an already existing file, the server checks the rename flag, and then
the overwrite one (i didn't test it). When a user "put" a file, it is an upload
; if the "put" occurs on an existing file, the server should also verify the
overwrite flag. I mean that both the upload and overwrite flags should be used
?

this is not in the INSTALL procedure. I saw a note about pam for linux boxes in

FIXES-2.4.2-VR17 : "Added PAM support for Linux". I created a new platform
configuration from "sol" and "lnx" (just as point 1b in INSTALL file) :
./src/config/config.so2

Note that "SHADOW_PASSWORD" is undefine; otherwise wuftp would not compile with

another authentication method such as PAM.
I edited the Makefiles to specify "CC=gcc -DUSE_PAM" and "LIBES    = -lsupport
-lsocket -lnsl -lgen -lpam" (quick and dirty).
Then a  './build CC=gcc so2'  should do the job (if i remind everything).

  Good Morning,

    My original install of Wuftpd 2.4 was just replaced with 2.4.2 beta 15.  System is a Sun Ultra II, solaris 2.6

  I got the  latest 'pkg' from 'smc.vnet.net' and installed 'beta 15' over the original because of some problems cropping up with sockets.   Found and added package wuftpd 2.4.2 beta15..... All went well, and the daemon is running, however, the new version installs in /usr/local vs /opt and WUftpd does not seem to have its own directory except under  /usr/local/doc/wuftpd,  the binary is under /usr/local/sbin.

I can't tell where the 'ftpaccess' file is which it uses nor the other config files to tailor the system.   

  Also, I notice that you can't list the directory (pub or any other) once you log in.  Is this correct?

   Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks

Hi Johan,
Our wu-ftpd is configured to run via inetd (inetd.conf).
 
I have already checked inetd.conf, search for ftp and found only one ftp
service running:
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/etc/wuftpd   wutftpd -ald

This happens for all users not only for anonymous.  We have more then 100
users constantly ftp to our system and they getting this error message only
when the volume of ftp logon's is high. 

Thanks,
...Magda

Hi Magda,

Is wu-ftpd configured to run via inetd (inetd.conf) or in standalone
mode?

I think you will find that Solaris is starting up an FTP server for you
(awfully nice of you).  Do a 'ps -ef' (or 'ps aux', I don't know Solaris),
and grep for 'ftp', and you will probably find it running someplace.

Getting rid of it is a different story.  I am an HP and Linux tech-head, not
a Solaris one.

Beta 15 is very old and has a number of security problems you will want to
avoid.  I'd recommend upgrading to 2.4.2-VR17; there are pre-built Solaris
package files for it in the distribution site.

The location of the latest versions of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory

I do not know who smc.vnet.net is but it's obvious their archive is
woefully out of date.

ckconfig will tell you this.

No.  It's a FAQ.

I have noticed over the past few weeks that there have been a number of
requests for help with versions of the WU-FTPD that are quite old  (pre-vr
series betas and so on.  Please save all of us a lot of trouble and drop
these old versions. They _all_ have known bugs and/or security holes.  

Update to the latest vr-17 version and read the FAQ and install
instructions. If you've read the install instructions and the FAQ carefully
and follow them, the vr-servers are a drop-in replacment for other earlier
versions of the wu-ftpd. Here's the skinny on getting the wu-ftpd off the
net (written by Greg Lundberg).

This message means the daemon attempted to create an outgoing connection
from local port 20 on the interface 142.148.10.35, another application
(probably another instance of WU-FTPD) was using that port, and the REUSE
option was not set.

Given everything you've been saying, I'd suggest either finding a vendor
patch to correct the errors in TCP socket management in your version of
Solaris 2.6, upgrading to 2.7, downgrading to 2.5 or moving to a more
robust and stable operating system (Linux and FreeBSD come to mind).

Do follow Johan's advise and use 'ps -ef|grep ftp' to see just how many ftp
daemons are running.  Look at your system load.....

NOW you tell us.... Look at your system load.  Are you trying to spawn
ftpd's faster than the system is able to?  Do you need to alter the system
boot parameters in /etc/system to allow more processes? Are you filling up
your process table?  Up-ing the max users will allow more processes to run.

When processing the STOR command, the daemon first checks the 'upload'
clause to determine if an upload of any kind is permitted in the target
area.  If so, it looks to see if the target file exists and, if it does,
checks the 'overwrite' clause to determine if overwritting files is also
permitted.  Finally, the daemon attempts to open the file allowing the
underlying system to check filesystem permissions.

Since neither RNFR nor RNTO involves a file transfer, the 'upload' clause
is not checked.  While RNTO could replace a file, that is not an overwrite
operation, so 'overwrite' is not checked.  For these commands, the daemon
simply checks the 'rename' clause to determine if the operations are
permitted the current user.

The idea is that, if everything is working properly in the daemon and
everything is configured properly, your should be able to run a site with
world read-write-execute permissions on all files and directories and
still maintain a modicum of security.  Of course, one should not simply
trust the daemon and should manage filesystem permissions and ownerships
properly.

Yes everything seem logical. But i don't see why an overwrite should be considered
as an upload only for the question "May I upload?", and not for the modification of
the owner, group and file permission.

The principle of least surprise: I have a file owned and permissioned as I
want.  I don't expect it to change.

The daemon is changing the ownership without changing permissions.  It
should be both or neither.  ISTM ownership didn't used to change but
something crept in (maybe as far back as the Hobbit patches).  It's a very
easy patch and I've already get it in test.

Maybe he should change the domain name to 'German.ISPs.suck.eu.org'?  He's
there but his ISP is so badly managed you cannot find him.

This won't work.  Port numbers MUST be in the range 1 to 65534
(inclusive) or you're not talking TCP/IP.

No, BeroFTPD won't do it.  No, another package won't help.  What you need
is a book on Unix.

Sorry for disturbing you like that, but I can't manage unsubscribing
from wu-ftpd mailing-list. Anyone can definitely help ?

Thanks

guest users.

I'm using wu-2.4.2-VR17

I'd be real surprised if it worked with nsswitch.conf.  I certainly never
coded it to.

Yeah, you told it where guests were to be root'd but you didn't tell it
who were to be guests until you added guest-group.  Personally, I like
  guestuser *
  realuser ftp
since it makes everyone except the anonymous FTP user a guest.

huh?  so you have a softlink /export/home/export -> /export/home and
another /export/home/export/home -> /export/home ???



Dunno what's going on here but I'll guess that the /export/home/etc/passwd
file has home directory entries starting with '/export/home'

when using these features of VR17, the chroot-local etc/passwd MUST be
consistent with the INTERNAL view the user will have.  So, if usera has a
real home of /export/home/usera (as shown in /etc/passwd) then the local
etc/passwd should say simply /usera

Chad:
I have checked  compared set nautopush=32 & set maxusers=40 on both
machines, the one we upgraded and the one we left alone.  Both have the same
setting.  The one which is NOT  upgraded doesn't give us ANY problems and
the one which we upgraded has a socket problem.

No, I am not trying to spawn ftpd's faster than the system is able to :-)

Any suggestions?
...Magda

Do follow Johan's advise and use 'ps -ef|grep ftp' to see just how many ftp
daemons are running.  Look at your system load.....

NOW you tell us.... Look at your system load.  Are you trying to spawn
ftpd's faster than the system is able to?  Do you need to alter the system
boot parameters in /etc/system to allow more processes? Are you filling up
your process table?  Up-ing the max users will allow more processes to run.

And is it possible to control which users will belong to a class without
using IPs (or domains) : if user1 and user2 connect from the same IPhost,
both will match the same class during the ftpaccess parsing, isn't it ?

No, not possible.  Yes, same class.  Unless one user is a guest and the
other real, then you can class them separately.

Thanks a lot, Greg, for your translation !
Do you know if there any project of an UNIX FTP server with Solaris of HP/UX 
ACL support ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I too have been wrestling with the guest user problem.  In my
ignorance, I was using the non-VR wu-ftpd 2.4.2.  I've upgraded
to VR17 and changed my configuration according to the
wonderful instructions Greg gave Steve, which happen to 
cover almost exactly the same situation that I am working
with.  But I still have the problem that I had before, which
I can't find any mention of in the FAQ or the mailing list
archive.

All my users are guests (no anonymous here).  User logs in.
User is correctly chrooted to /usr/local/ftp, and correctly 
confined to its home directory, say /usr/local/ftp/testlusr.
So far all is great! This user, by the way, is in class 'cust'. 

Now I test uploading files.  I have the following upload
directives in /etc/ftpaccess.

upload class=cust /usr/local/ftp/* / no
upload class=cust /usr/local/ftp/* /* no
upload class=cust /usr/local/ftp/* /*/toarti yes artiftp artiftp 0660
upload class=cust /usr/local/ftp/* /*/fromarti yes artiftp artiftp 0660
upload class=cust /usr/local/ftp/* /*/* no

The user 'artiftp' is in /usr/local/ftp/etc/passwd and the
group is in /usr/local/ftp/etc/group.

The upload directives work in so far as the user is only
allowed to upload files into the directories
/usr/local/ftp/testlusr/[to|from]arti.
The group ownership of the files and the permissions
are all correct.  But the files are owned by root.
What gives?

Susannah

How ? Do you mean with './' with homedirectories in passwd ?

Opps.  Sorry -- didn't quite think that one through.  Had a similar type of
problem when I upgraded a machine for the web because the upgrade installed
a webserver and inserted it into the startup script without telling anyone.
So when I installed my webserver, I got the above error.

Brain cramp...never mind

John:
We do have more then one ftp session running because we have lot's of users
log in to our site.  This is normal for our site:

I think you will find that Solaris is starting up an FTP server for you
(awfully nice of you).  Do a 'ps -ef' (or 'ps aux', I don't know Solaris),
and grep for 'ftp', and you will probably find it running someplace.

Getting rid of it is a different story.  I am an HP and Linux tech-head, not
a Solaris one.

What I was referring to was the fact that the class clause in ftpaccess
can distiguish between real, guest, and anonymous users.  What it cannot
do is tell one user of a type (say, guest) from another.

Dunno.  works for me.  Check your local passwd and group files
(/usr/local/ftp/etc/passwd) .. is there a username artiftp and a gorupname
artiftp there?  I'm anal about making sure all that stuff appears where
it'll be used, maybe it's not there and the daemon is quietly using
uid/gid 0 (root) and a (very bad) second choice.

If that's the problem, let me know.  It's such a BAD second choice, I'll
put together a patch to disallow uploads rather than use uid/gid 0.

If it's not, let me know and I'll play a bit on my test server to see if I
can figure out what's going on.

Hello,

I'm currently running BETA-13 of the WU-FTPD server. I just started 
receiving an error I can't seem to find a solution for. The error message 
is:

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

Can anyone tell me what this means and hoe can I fix this problem? I 
happens every time I try to do an 'ls' in a directory.

Thanks

Two points:

Beta-13 is extremely old, has several severe security problems, and you
should upgrade as soon as possible.

Hi Pat, 
I am running the same version and just decided to upgrade it to VR-17.
VR-13 is an old one and has the security problem anyway.

here is the link (I've got it from Gael Martinez):
ftp://ftp.grolier.fr/pub/unix/ftp/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.tar.gz

I've got the following error on VR-13:
"Can't create data socket (142.148.10.35,20): Address already in   use - 
after upgrade from Solaris 2.5 to Solaris 2.6" 

Thanks,
...Magda

We're running BSD 3.1 with wuFTP 2.4(1) and need to have anonymous ftp
working.
I ran the script config_anonftp as indicated in the BSD manual (release
notes).
I want people to be able to ftp and send files to us, not retrieve them.

I created a directory called 'incoming' under /var/spool/ftp and gave it

permissions 733. The owner root and group is wheel.  According to the
manual, this should permit anonymous uploads.  However, it doesn't.
On my client pc, (running cuteFTP), if I try to upload the file doesn't
appear in the incoming folder.  If I look at the commands sent and
received from cuteFTP, this is what I see:

STOR nameoffile
553 Could not determine cwdir: Permission denied.  Can't initiate data
transfer.

If I make the directory readable (735) then it'll work.  But at the same

time, I don't want anonymous users to be able to see files and
download/delete
them.
So, what am I doing wrong?  I'm not using the /etc/ftpaccess file but
have tried it anyways (made change in inetd.conf and rebooted) but it
didn't seem to make any diff.  I have even read the chapter in Managing
Internet Information Services and have things set up the way it
recommends but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?
Thanks.

check -e to -d everywhere in the Makefile.  This will be n the next
version.

Your version is so old, it would be safed to wipe the hard drive yourself
than put it on the Internet and wait for a cracker to do it for you.

The location of the latest versions of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory
 
      ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/
 
wu-ftpd Resource Center:  http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/

wu-ftpd list archive:     http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/

The specific instructions you need are in:

 ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/upload.configuration.HOWTO

which is included in the release kit if you get the most-current version
(VR17).

 Hi Gregory:

You were right.  The -e option stops the install process.
I commented it out all the if statements.

1.
# which make
/usr/local/bin/make

I changed build:
   /usr/ccs/bin/make -f Makefile $makeargs $makeopts install
2.
          Makefile:
 
#   @if [ ! -e ${BINDIR} ]; then \
        ${INSTALL} -o ${BINOWN} -g ${BINGRP} -m 755 -d ${BINDIR} ; \
#   fi
 
Thank you for help,
...Magda

Solaris doesn't know the -e option on test ( implicit test in the makefile
is the braces [] ).

check -e to -d everywhere in the Makefile.  This will be n the next

Have you checked the section on this in the FAQ ?

   http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html

Look under section 1.10.1.

You may need to make sure you have ~ftp/dev/tcp and ~ftp/dev/zero present,
and with the correct permissions (tcp at least needs to be world writeable
(666) in order to allow passive connections under Solaris).  

Hope this helps !

Cheers, Bob

    To test the FTP server on the Linux box I have used CuteFTP running
on a Windows 95
    P/C which is connected to the same local ethernet (co-ax) network as
the Linux box.
    Everything works fine, except that I have noticed that it is not
possible to transfer files
    that are larger than about 100KBytes ... on the Win 98 P/C what I
notice is that when
    attempting to transfer "large" files the transfer rate starts off at
a high rate and then just
    quickly slows down to nothing!

     I would welcome suggestions on what might be the cause of this
frustrating problem.

     BTW I have tried a different FTP client on the Win 98 P/C and
exactly the same
     phenomenon is observed which is why I believe the problem lies with
the FTP
     server and not the FTP client.

I'd be very surprised if it's the server software.

First, your should upgrade to something more current that Beta-18.

The location of the latest versions of wu-ftpd can be found in the 
directory
 
      ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/
 
wu-ftpd Resource Center:  http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
wu-ftpd FAQ:              http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html
wu-ftpd list archive:     http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/

Upgrading probably won't help your speed, but it will make your machine
more secure.

Considering you're using MS software on the client side, I'd vote for that
being the problem.  If it's Windows 95, you might want to see if you have
the kernel patches installed.  There's old problems with '95 which cause
it to leak memory and slow down on IP packets until the machine finally
rolls over dead.

I'd suggest using a real system, like another Linux box, to test from.  If
it's fast from there, then you pretty well know it's the MS junk.  If it's
still slow (which would surpise me), I'd look for a bacd Ethernet card,
hub or cable.

Subject: Problems with wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.patch
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2232.9)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I have only installed a couple of patches before. I must be doing something
wrong. My system (let's call oscar)  is a Redhat Linux "hybrid" with the
bare minimum from Redhat because I usually like to install the separate
applications when possible myself. I turned on shadow password using
"pwconv".  I think this means I'm running "PAM"? In any event, the "shadow
password" function
is working well.

  Step 0. I installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.tar.gz without any patch,
encountered no errors during compilation or install. But am getting a "login
failure" when trying to connect from another system (we'll call spooky).
 The remote system, Spooky, reflects the following error in the secure log
": execv /usr/sbin/in.identd: No such file or directory ". Spooky can
connect to my other linux systems running Wu-FTPD vr14 without a problem.
 step 1.  I copied to oscar a fresh copy of wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.tar.gz.
 step 2.  Unzipped and un tarred resulting in new directory being created
again with all files. Looks good.
.step 3 Then I downloaded the wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.patch and deposited it in
the same directory, i.e. wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.
 step 4 I reviewed the patch file noting numerous lines of code many of
which appear to have the intent of adding PAM options to the Makefile.lnx
file. 
step 5 From the wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17 directory, I tried to patch by entering:
(on a Linux kernel 2.0.36)
    patch -p0 < wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17.patch
Step 6 Answered "n" which was the default to the numerous queries.
Step 7.  Reviewed resulting makefiles/Makefile.lnx and no PAM options added.
Step 8 Started over again by deleting the newly created directory moving a
new copy of the wu-ftp tar file into /usr/local/src, untarring once again.
Moving a copy of the patch file to the new wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17 directory and
applying it once again.
Step 9 This time, I answered "Y" to the numerous queries. 
Step 10 Reviewed results and still no PAM options added to Makefile.lnx.

Does any of the above reflect the correct appliation of the patch?
Are my expections of seeing PAM options added to Makefile.lnx misguided?

Does  wuftpd file exist in VR17 on Solaris 2.6?

1. I install on new machine wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-17] on Solaris 2.6
2.  Then I run SUN 2.6 anonymous ftp setup script

3.  in /etc/inetd.conf :
tp stream  tcp nowait  root    /usr/local/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd -la

Question:
I used to have this binary line in my inetd.conf file when I was installing
previous WU-FTP VR:
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/etc/wuftpd   wutftpd -ald


*** I search for wuftpd  - this file doesn't exist in /usr/local/etc.  ***


Any answers, hints?
Regards,
...Magda
