I will check the secret resource known as the INSTALL file.

If cc complains about strunames, typenames, modenames, ... being undefined
you need to install support/ftp.h as /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h (always make
a backup of the old ftp.h just in case!) and do the build again. The new
ftp.h should be a compatible superset of your existing ftp.h, so you
shouldn't have problems with this replacement.

That fixes at least one of your problems.

In a previous message, you wrote :

I also dug into this problem again for Linux with shadow passwords. Using
libshadow.a from shadow-3.3.1 I found I needed to change the call in ftpd.c
from

xpasswd = crypt(passwd,salt);

to

xpasswd = pw_encrypt(passwd,salt);

which fixed things for Linux.

Hello,

I have setup a wuftp server running belind a firewall(packet filter).
And I got a few users compiling about the connections timeout when they
try to use PASV(prepare for server-to-server transfer).
Is there any options in wuftp which will allow me to turn PASV off?
or which port should I open in the firewall to allow PASV command ?

Subject: FAQ for wu-ftpd
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hi,

Is there an FAQ for wu-ftpd somewhere out there? I've compiled wu-ftpd 2.4
for IRIX 5.2 and some things are not working correctly. For instance,
I get GMT in the xferlogs and magic cookies aren't working right. If
you know of an FAQ I would appreciate an address.

Thanks.

Abel,

To Abel and others, try the WUarchive WU-FTPD web page:

http://fegmania.wustl.edu/ftp.html

I found it extremely helpful.

Ed

P.S. Is there any more work on the idea of a periodic list posting of
basic information such as the above? --em

Subject: Need Help With Logging
X-Mailer: Pegasus Mail for Windows (v2.01)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hello,

I've just started using WU_FTPD and think it's great. However, I'm
having difficulty logging activity.

I'm using OSF/1 v3.2 on a Digital 2100. I followed the installation
included as well as the O'Reilly book (Managing Internet Information
Services). Even after putting in the logging request in the
ftpaccess file and in my inet.conf, activity is logged to neither the
specified xferlog or the system daemon.log (as the stock ftpd did).

Here's my inet.conf line ...

ftp stream tcp nowait root
/usr/local/etc/ftpd/wu-ftpd/bin/ftpd ftpd -u002 -a -i -o

Here's the appropriate section of my ftpaccess file ...

class staff real *
class clients guest *
class anon anonymous *

log transfer staff,clients,anon inbound,outbound

An the pathnames.h file specifies a file which exists and is writable

Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Subject: Time and magic cookies
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hi,

I compiled wu-ftpd 2.4 for IRIX 5.2 and now I'm getting
GMT when I use the magic cookie for local time. Also
when I use the %N to show the number of users currently
on I get a -1. Which is clearly wrong. Does anyone
have an idea why this is happening? I looked at the
web site for wu-ftpd but nothing there hinted towards
the solution.

Thanks

Here is the beginning of the glob.c I managed to compile under
IRIX 5.3 after meny difficulties. Plus I used the CC-flag
-cckr (to get rid of the warning messages during the compilation)
and -mips2 (to produce R4000 compliant executables, the default is
R3000 which do run on the R4000 system). And according the advices
on this list the shared library /lib/libc.so.1 should be copied under the
~ftp/lib -directory.

That was me ;-)

The file is now in perl, and is in

ftp.cetis.hvu.nl:/pub/koos/ftplogcheck

To check the html output it generates, look at :

I'm a recent user of the WU-FTPD. I have a number of questions regarding
the guest users that I set up.

1) I wasn't certain where I should put my group file: should it be in /etc
or in /home/ftp/etc? It didn't seem to make a difference in ftpd accepting
users defined in passwd with a chroot /./. The /./ worked, i.e., the user
defined could not access anything other than the root defined for it. How
is that group file used and how can I be sure that ftpd is using it? I also
have a test user defined in passwd like a guest user, but the name does not
appear in the group file for the group "guests", and it doesn't seem to make
a difference!

2) In xferlog, if I did not add "guest" to my log transfer command, then no
logging appeared in xferlog for guest users. When I added "guest" to the
list of types, it did log those users, but the type was listed as r (rather
than the expected g), which also makes me wonder whether I have my guest
accounts set up properly.

Thank you for your assistance.

You should set
#undef SETPROCTITLE
in the config-file. With SETPROCTITLE you loss your environment
(including $TZ).

My log analysis program "iisstat" can create html versions of all of its
reports. It works on wu-ftp, NCSA httpd, and Gopher logs.

I remember a few months back when someone mentioned that they had a program
that would place ftp archive log information into a nice html format...
If anyone has this or knows where I can find this please let me know. I
hate having to rwite programs and then find out there is one already out
there. This I one I know is out there I just need to find it. :)

N E WAY enjoy!

I've tried xferstats, but it doesn't do what I want (I would like to get
stats on a "per file" basis).

Any help would be appreciated!

Stan, I've installed it and it looks good. Thanks for the work. The
only comment is that when using SKEY it is not enough just to put -DSKEY
and -lskey in the Makefile. The #undef SKEY has to be removed from
Config.h to make it work also. I may have missed that in the documents
somewhere, but I went through some real head scratching before I figured
that one out.

Thanks again for pulling all this together,

Subject: Compiling errors on AIX 4.1.0
X-Mailer: Microsoft Mail V3.0
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hello,

I have sucessfully installed wu-ftpd-2.4 on AIX ver 3.2.5 and it works
great. Now I am trying to install it on a server running AIX ver 4.1.0 but
I get compilation errors when I run "build aix". It looks like this:
============================================================================
================
Making support library.
cc -0 -DDEBUG -c getusershell.c
1506-333 (S) License failure: acquire: No servers available for this vendor
(network licence server/library).
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Stop.
============================================================================
================
Do I have a chance at getting this to work with AIX ver 4.1.0?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you and regards,

Subject: Solaris 2.4 vs. wuftpd 2.4
Content-Type: text
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

The current score is not in favor of the server...

Two problems really...

a) anonymous logins get in, but can't do anything, they seem to lose all
knowledge of the sending address, e.g.

230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): Bad file number.

real users get to keep the ip address (I checked that).

b) even though I defined SETPROCTITLE, the name of the loginee(?)
doesn't show up on a ps, even though it seems fine under SunOS.

I have had a reasonable good look for documentation about this,
but drawn a complete blank. Help gratefully receieved !

Looks to me like one of the following applies here:
- your <ftp-root>/dev is not OK (check in.ftpd(1M))
- your <ftp-root>/usr/lib is not OK (check in.ftpd(1M))
- your link <ftp-root>/lib -> usr/lib is not there
- you are mounting <ftp-root> over NFS with the nosuid option active, don't

This changed under SunOS 5.x. This stopped working for all my program's
that did this under SunOS 4.1.x. A strcpy to argv[0] used to be enough,
but it is not any more.

I hope this helps,

Ronald.

I compiled the GNU ls and vdir static, so unless SunOs is really
twisted, shared libraries should not matter. I did a file on them,
and it reported 'dir: sparc demand paged executable'
and 'ls: sparc demand paged executable'
I also had previously created /dev/zero
with proper permissions (/dev dir 555 and zero 666);
I'm stumped.

again, just in case GNU ls is broken, i made a copy of /bin/ls and put it
in the ftp bin directory, and made a link to /usr/lib, failed, and made
a lib directory and copied ld.so, libc.so.1.9 and libdl.so.1.0 to the lib
directory. Still zilch

I guess I have an old version of wu-ftpd for linux which apperantly has some
security holes in it.

Can anyone advise me if I can get a secure precompiled wu-ftpd for linux
(slackware), I have tried compiling one, but build lnx returns error
errors and does not manage to build anything.

Kind regards

Many thanks ! I was missing the dev directory. I read the man pages that
came with wuftpd, but never tought to look at the Solaris ones - I never
expected them to be *that* helpful, a script too !

I'm having problems with listings on SunOs 4.1.3_U1.
When logged in as a system user, no problems. Iv'e compiled the
GNU ls and vdir and put them in /ftp/bin/ftp-exec (renaming vdir to dir)
I've set file permissions as reccommended in ) O'Reilly's Managing
Internet Services. I've even tried setuid of dir to root.
Still, the poor anonymous user gets an empty dir listing. What am I doing
wrong?

I have the same behavior with Solaris 2.4. I can add that a plain "ls" does
show what's in, but ls -l does not...

Could it be a library missing? A bad ftpaccess configuration file?

any hint most wellcome!

ls -l and dir in ftp are different than normal. Under ~/ftp you need to
have the lib directory with ld.so and libc.so.1* and libdl.so.* (if it
exists), you also need dev/zero. Things are slightly different for Solaris
lib subdirectory. I don't recall offhand those exact requisites. Sorry.

Hope something here helps.

Hello fellow wu-ftpd users:

Having just installed wu-ftpd on our systems, I was wondering
one thing:
(Forgive me if this is in the docs, I read them all and didn't
see it.)

Is there a way to set something up like ncsa_httpd's /~foouser/public_html
directories?

I would like to be able to allow my users to make certain files available
for anon ftp users. I was hoping the could create a directory in their
home dir (say, public_ftp), and somehow do it that way.

Does wu-ftpd support this?

Thanks in advance

Hello:
I finally figured out the dir problem. The instructions
in the O'Reilly Book, and in the distribution says that the
default bin path is ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec. Not so. That is an
INSTRUCTION for the daemon to look for the executables for
ftp anonymous users in the directory ~ftp/bin!!
One does need /dev/zero, and either a statically linked ls,
OR a copy of the three libraries /usr/lib/ld.so, /usr/lib/libc.so.x.x
and /usr/lib/libdl.so.x.x (where x.x are the version numbers of the
libraries) and these MUST be not in a lib directory off ~ftp,
but in a /usr/lib/directory!!!
Wheeeew!

Take a look at:

nix.mechnet.liv.ac.uk:/pub/Linux/Wu-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.nix.tar.gz

Its the source I fixed up (probly after the same errors you got) and
seems to work just fine for nix itself.

Anyone want to chekc what I did to see if I glaringly broke
anything? (I didn't spot anything in a few quick tests and have had no
complaints from users, been in operation for over 6 weeks now).

I guess that we need following patch about usage of fnmatch in access.c.

If you have access to a 386 PC or better on which you can either trash
and reformat the drive, or create a small partition for this project, you
might find it a better idea to slap Linux on it and install WU-FTPD on
it. That way you'll have root access to the machine and not have to
change FTP.

Subject: BETA 5 of the wu-ftpd-2.4.2-academ server ready for testing
X-Mailer: Mail User's Shell (7.2.5 10/14/92)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

The fifth (but not yet final) beta of the wu-ftpd-2.4.2-academ server is
now available. This version features a timer addition to the use of
ident so that the server will not hang waiting on an ident response
(very important for ftp clients on PCs which don't do ident well at all!).
It also features some more fixes for building this software under hpux.
The major fix is to the yacc parser. There has been a bug in the yacc parser
since the original NET-2 ftpd server was released. This version is thought
to fix that problem.

There are also a few more "null pointer" fixes and stuff of that nature to
help in portability.

This version has been compiled and tested on the following OS/Hardware:

SparcStation 20 runnins Solaris 2.4
SparcStation 1 running SunOS 4.1.4 (with gcc)
BSDI 1.1 with gcc 1.42 and 2.5.8
Linux 1.2.8 with gcc 2.6.3

Fixes are still welcome. There will be at least one more beta before release
as I want to fix some hostname resolution things to make it consistent
throughout the software. That will be in beta 6.

Please send bug reports to "[email protected]" or to this list.

Thanks for your assistance in identifying other bugs and especially your
patches. The next beta may be in August, so please be patient. I have
a bunch of other things going on (including upcoming beta tests of other
software I maintain).

beta-5 was released but such BUG was not fixed. I will send a BUG report
for beta-5 to be taken notice of you.

Currently, fnmatch's return value was changed 1 to 0, 0 means matching.
Thus almost all checking routines of the value were changed. But two
routines ware left with old checking style. I think we have to change it.

How does this differ from the 'official' WU release?
In other words, are you taking over the development, or
is this a paralel project?

The last "official" WU release is the 2.4 that damn near everybody is
running. It's still full of holes.

I just jumped in here and started realizing that Stan's working on a fairly
big merge of many different fixes -- from him, me, the Debian people, and
godknowswhereelse. I think this is great, and who knows, if it all comes
together, maybe it'll turn into a new "official" 2.5 or something.

Washington U itself seems to have dropped out of the picture other than
hosting the mailing list, but someone correct me if I'm wrong on this!

The noretrieve keyword makes it possible to deny access for
an absolute or relative FILENAME, but what if I want to deny
access to a directory (and its subdirs?)

If there currently is no way to do this, I would like to
suggest a traling slash in the noretrieve filenames to
get this behaviour:

notretrive /usr/bin/ls core /etc/ /var/yp/mydomain/

would mean:

Deny access to the file /usr/bin/ls, the file core (anywhere)
and to all files in /etc and /var/yp/mydomain and it's subdirectories.

This level of security would suit my needs perfectly. I would be
able to allow my students access to home directories and source
archives, but deny access to other files on the ftp server (which
is a sort of privilliged machine which they can't log in to).

If there is no way to do this today, I would be more than happy
to do the implementation (which is trivial).

I would just say that the above option would be a splendid feature.

As Per said it would improve security, both on his and my own system.

I am sure that more people would like such a feature!

None. Just make sure you use the right ftp.h (not the one comming
with the system). Beside, it should be a free ride.

Subject: Group Controls for WUFTPD(V2.4) not working. Why?
Resent-To: [email protected]
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
Resent-From: Neil Movold <[email protected]>
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have been running WUFTPD V2.4 for some time now with no problems.
However, recently I have had a need to use the Group Controls to allow a
set of users to ftp into a seperate directory outside of the anonymous
FTP root directory.

Following the instructions, I have entered in the appropriate information
in the /etc/group and /etc/passwd files. In the documentation, it is
explained that the entry for the /etc/passwd file should look like

guest1:LKJFsdfjASKJa:202:21:Guest FTP User:/users/guests/./guest1:/bin/false

The login directory field is supposed to be two pathnames, seperated by
"/./". The first pathname is the directory the guest user will be
chroot()ed to, and the second is the pathname (relative to the chroot()ed
directory) of the guest user's login directory.

Both directories do exist on my system. However, when I log in to FTP
from another system, I get the following messages back from the WUFTPD
Server:

230-No directory! Logging in with home=/
230 User guest1 logged in.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

I tried removing the first part of the login field and this worked, sort
of. I do get logged into the right directory outside the anonymous FTP
root directory, but there is a real security problem with this. When I
was logged in, I was able to do a "cd /" and list the files in my systems
root directory. Yikes!!!

I am running V3.2b of OSF/1 with V2.4 of WUFTPD.

I would appreciate any suggestions anyone has.

Thanks,

Neil :-)

Did you also enter the guestgroup information in ftpaccess?

Hope this is the one,

I needed this feature, so I made a small change to checknoretrieve()
in extensions.c (wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5). I seems to work just
like I wanted it to.

If anyone wants to use this, or maybe even merge it into the
distribution, here is the diff (I have tried to indent the code
according to the existing code even if it isn't my preferred
indentation):

I guess it is time to post the script again. It is a great aid in getting
a starting configuration in place.

Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

It's been mentioned several times in this mailing list that NO files or
directories should be owned by ftp.

Why is it, then, that there appears to be no way to allow anonymous
ftpers to create directories in incoming directories specified by the
"upload" directive in /etc/ftpaccess without them being automatically
owned by ftp.anon?

Where is this set? Can the permissions (chmod) be changed as well?

I hope I'm missing something... Thanks.

Check the 'upload' directive in ftpaccess -- it gives ownership and
permissions on uploads. My anon ftp root is /Public/ftp, and the
following lines are taken from my ftpaccess file.

Hope it helps....

# specify the upload directory information

This is, in fact, how I have things set up in /etc/ftpaccess.

This works fine for people who upload just files and create no directories.
The files show up with the correct owner, group and permission.

However, directories created using MKDIR always show owner ftp, group anon,
and permission drwxrwxr-x.

This would be fine, except that

1) Files placed in newly created directories cannot be deleted by their
respective owners. (They don't have permission to change the directory
contents since they aren't "ftp", and they don't belong to group "anon".)

2) Apparently it's not secure to have any files/directories owned by ftp.

Michael, what's the ownership on directories created in your incoming
directory?

How about if you have some guestgroup users who need to create dirs?
I have wanted to be able set the group and mods on dirs created by my
guestgroup users for ages.

Anyone?

Well, I don't allow directories, actually. My incoming directory is set
to write only - 0733 - so you cannot see the contents. Incoming
permissions are set to root.daemon 0400 so the file cannot be read back.
I don't want unknown/illicit/hacker_tools/etc floating through my ftp
site...

If I remember right, there was a thread some time ago about this. I don't
remember what the outcome was, though, so I may not be much help on this
one. I don't remember if there was a daemon hack to fix it or not.

Perhaps someone else can help out here???

Of course if you are running wu-ftpd, you can just make sure that filenames
with spaces, tabs, or control chars are not allowed. This makes it much
less likely for folks to put pirated stuff on your server in the first place.

I permit guest FTP to make directories, and that works for me --
ownership, protections, etc. Are you saying that guest created dirs are
created with other than guest.guestgroup/755 ownership/protection and you
want to be able to set it to that? My guest dirs are created with
guest.guestgroup ownership; prots are set normally.

Hello all,

I installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5 on an AIX 3.2.5 machine which worked quite Ok.
I still have one problem. The daemon only supports a primary group for real
users. If a user belongs to another group as well and is trying to get a file
which belongs to that group it get the message permission denied.

This is working fine with the ftpd coming with AIX.

Can someone help me on this?

Thanks in advance.

Jasper

Subject: Hung sessions on Solaris 2.x
X-Sun-Charset: US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Greetings,

I'm having trouble with stock wu-ftpd-2.4 on a Solaris 2.4
system. Basically I am seeing incoming ftp processes hang around
long past the supposed idle timeout period.

A 'ps -auwwx' reveals ftp daemons like the following:

USER PID %CPU %MEM SZ RSS TT S START TIME COMMAND
root 1716 0.0 0.3 1424 144 ? S Jul 11 0:01 in.ftpd -aiol -t 1800
root 2234 0.0 0.0 2100 4 ? S Jul 10 0:00 in.ftpd -aiol -t 1800
root 2501 0.0 0.8 1424 344 ? S Jul 12 0:00 in.ftpd -aiol -t 1800
root 2698 0.0 1.1 1424 496 ? S Jul 12 0:00 in.ftpd -aiol -t 1800

This list was made on the 13th, atleast 24 hours after these
connections were first established.

If I connect to one of these processes with truss, it just seems
to be stuck in a read(2):

# truss -p 1716
read(0, 0x00055934, 8192) (sleeping...)

There doesn't seem to be much commonality among these processes.
Some are from WWW browsers, others are done by hand.
They all reflect the same pattern in the command log, though.
They all just log in and then hang - no further commands are seen.
Over a period a days or two I can vbuild up hundreds of these that
must be nuked by hand.

For example,

Jul 11 22:53:55 java ftpd[1716]: connection from autsun24.ethz.ch [129.132.50.24]
Jul 11 22:53:56 java ftpd[1716]: ANONYMOUS FTP LOGIN FROM autsun24.ethz.ch [129.132.50.24], mlt@

Jul 12 07:55:00 java ftpd[2501]: connection from 143.166.169.94 [143.166.169.94]
Jul 12 07:55:01 java ftpd[2501]: ANONYMOUS FTP LOGIN FROM 143.166.169.94 [143.166.169.94], [email protected]

Jul 12 07:56:45 java ftpd[2698]: connection from curium.sietec.com [192.75.236.96]
Jul 12 07:56:47 java ftpd[2698]: ANONYMOUS FTP LOGIN FROM curium.sietec.com [192.75.236.96], [email protected]

Has anyone else seen this behavior?

BTW, I think I have applied all the latest network and kernel patches
to this otherwise generic version of Solaris 2.4. I had the same
problem before I applied the patches as well.

Putting:

path-filter anonymous /etc/allowed.filenames ^[-A-Za-z0-9\._]*$ ^\. ^-

in your ftpaccess file will (help) ensure they are not put there in
the first place!

Along with:

upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /incoming yes root ftpadmin 0660 nodirs

Will make sure the uploaded files can not be downloaded from the
incoming directory.

and doing: chmod u=rwx,o=wx,g=wx,+t incoming

will mean uploaders can not see any files in the directory.

Here is a patch for a bug affecting idle timeouts when using the -t or -T
commands. Use of either of those options in the default ftpd will cause the
corresponding timeout value to revert to zero meaning that *no timeout will be
enforced*!

This bug applies to all platforms, however the fix has been tested only on
SunOS4.1.x and Solaris 2.x.

No, I'm saying that they are created with guest.guestgroup/755
ownership/protection and I want to set them to something else.

On our system we have users who perfrom maintance on various
guestgroup directories. I would like to change the group that the
dir is created with so I'd have more control over who can maintain
which guestgroups, and I'd like to set g+w on the directories so
these users can delete files etc.

Note that guestgroup users do not have access to each other so the
g+w shouldn't be risk.

Regards,
Keith.

Subject: undoing a ftpshut now
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.3 PL11]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Earlier today I issued the following command as root:
ftpshut now

Now, after I've rebooted the machine I get the following message when
trying to ftp my machine
FTP server shut down -- please try again later

I've checked all of the /etc/ftp* files and they all appear to be
unchanged since the ftpshut command. I've searched the ftpd man pages
and the wu-ftpd home page, but found no way of undoing the command.

Anyone know how I can start the ftpd again and allow ftp access?

Thanks,
Steve

In your ftpaccess you define your shutdown-message file. Remove this file.

I hope this is the one,

Ronald.

Check `/etc/ftpaccess' (assuming this is how you defined ``_PATH_FTPACCESS''
in `pathnames.h', I think it is the default) for the ``shutdown'' keyword.
This should point to the file that contains the shutdown message, relative
to ftp's home dir. It is usually `~/ftp/etc/shutmsg'. Just remove it (or
move it to a different file name if you are not sure).

In ftpaccess you specified a shutdown line. It has a file name.

When you run ftpshut, it creates the file named in the shutdown line.
Delete the file and all will be well.

Subject: SGI implementation
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Dear all,

I am having difficulty installing the latest version of wu-ftpd on an
SG machine. I have tried installing on irix 4.0.5 and irix 5.2 but to
no avail. It seems to install OK, but then when one ftps to the machine
as soon as you perform ls for example it delivers the following message
before bombing out:-

421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

Upon analysis of the SYSLOG file the following lines are reported :-

Jul 14 09:41:04 indigo1 inetd[116]: /usr/etc/rpc.snoopd: No such file
or directory
Jul 14 08:41:14 indigo1 ftpd[6671]: FTP session closed

It's more than likely that it is something patently obvious that I have
overlooked, and my apologies if this is the case, but has anyone got any
ideas as to what the problem might be or what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance for your time and help,

Phil Biggin

PREZYDENT.

ZAGADKA SLYNNEGO ZAROSTU

Lech Walesa ma wasy, choc przystrzyzone!

Wciaz nie wiadomo dokladnie co stalo sie z wasami Lecha Walesy. Wczoraj
Polske i swiat obieglo
zdjecie, na ktorym trudno bylo dostrzec slynny atrybut legendarnego
przywodcy "S".

- Lech Walesa nie zgolil wasow, tylko mocno je przycial - oswiadczyl
rzecznik prezydenta Leszek
Spalinski. Jednak sekretarz stanu w Kancelarii Prezydenta Andrzej
Zakrzewski powiedzial agencji
Reutera, iz Walesa wasy zgolil. Stalo sie to podczas wakacyjnego wypoczynku
i wasy jeszcze nie
odrosly. - Ale Walesa na pewno z nich nie zrezygnuje - zapewnil.

Rozmaicie postrzegali wasy prezydenta jego wczorajsi goscie.

Lider UW Bronislaw Geremek wydawal sie zdziwiony ciekawoscia dziennikarzy.
Zapewnil, ze
prezydent nie pozbyl sie wasow.

Pewne zmiany na twarzy glowy panstwa nie uszly natomiast uwadze marszalka
Sejmu Jozefa
Zycha. Ludowiec bezblednie przeniknal proces, ktory dokonuje sie nad ustami
Lecha Walesy. -
Pan prezydent zgolil wasy, a teraz one mu odrastaja - stwierdzil.

Decyzje "w temacie wasy" z uznaniem przywitala Polska Partia Lysych. - To
wazny krok na
drodze do calkowicie lysej glowy panstwa, co jest zgodne z oczekiwaniami
spolecznymi i
interesem naszego nieszczesnego kraju. Wiarygodni sa tylko ci, ktorzy nie
maja nic do ukrycia! -

Apparently it's about his moustache.
Phew ! I thought it was another question that could be answered in the FAQ.

I apologize and stand corrected.

What I should have said is: using syntax like "-t NNN" instead of the
documented "-tNNN" will cause the server to assign a timeout of zero,
effectively turning off idle timeouts.

The patch I forwarded previously is useful only if you wanted to change
the command-line syntax to accept "-t NNN" *instead* of the default.

Note that the patch does not make the corresponding changes to the
documentation {;-).

At one point in time, my ftpconversions were working just fine. Now they
aren't, and I can't determine why. I've included the ftpconversions file
below, as well as the area of the ftpaccess file that sets up the
conversions. Oh yeah. Permissions on the ftpconversions file are 644,
and the binaries that actually do the conversions are all in ~ftp/bin,
and are set to read-execute.

If anyone out there can see something I've done wrong, please let me know.

If you can recompile wu-ftpd to fix your problem, recompile it after
appling a patch in my last mail subjected "BUG around fnmatch(), how to use
it." It will fix your problem because the wrong usage of fnmatch() is in a
checking routine for compress and tar command. I add a same patch
following.

Or if you want to fix it without any compilation, you have to allow the
world to tar and/or compress with like following line in ftpaccess. It
means that anyone who is (!anon || !agency) are allowed the compress and
tar.

I've set up the WU-FTPD on a IBM AIX system and anonymous FTP appears to
be running very well.

When I attempt to log in using a "real" account, ftpd denies access.
I've checked to verify that this account is not in the /etc/ftpusers
file. I know that this will be a simple oversight on my part. Can
anyone help?

Try creating /etc/shells (or whatever it is defined as in pathnames.h)
including all valid shells on the system. The FTP server attempts to
determine whether or not to allow ftp connections based on the shell of
the account you are ftping to.

I'm not sure it applies here, but if you can use password longer than the
typical 8 characters in AIX then that may be a problem. When I installed
WU-FTPD on our OSF/1 box, I was not able to log into "real" accounts when
the anonymous worked fine. The problem turned out to be that the "crypt"
procedure was tearing off only the first 8 characters of my password and
ultimately the encrypted versions didn't match.

The solution was to use the procedure "bigcrypt" which did encrypted the
whole password. Not sure if there's an equivalent for ACHES though.

I'm Cc'ing this to Mr. Molenda in hopes that it will save him some trouble,
assuming my thoughts are correct.

Maybe I'm missing something (quite likely), but I don't see how this feature
does anything useful, since the only directories (in the anonymous FTP
hierarchy) that should be writable by anyone other than their owner should
be the ``incoming'' directories --- in which case the ``nodirs''
specification to the ``upload'' keyword performs this same function, with no
code modifications.

Just a thought ...

I have the following lines in my access file:

upload /ftp * no
upload /ftp /incoming yes root ftpadmin 0660 nodirs

and I am unable to create directories via anonymous FTP...

# ftp ftp
.. anonmous login and cd to /incoming

Indeed, I seem to have just made a patch to do something that wu-ftpd
can already do. Thank you for pointing TFM out to me! I'll drop my
hack and use the nodirs option.

You need to replace your ftp.h (/usr/include/arpa/ftp.h) with the one in the
distibution (support directory).

Good Luck,

Sorry folks. I didn't RTFM. My undeclared varaible problem was cleared
up by copying the ftp.h included in the support directory to
/usr/include/arpa. Problem fixed.

It seems that the command "last" on machines running Solaris 2.4 and using
the wu-ftpd (2.4) don't give a line like :

ftp ftp levant-gate-elec Mon Jul 17 16:48 - 16:49 (00:00)

this is not the case on machines running SunOS 4.x and using wu-ftpd (2.4)
or on machines running solaris 2.4 and using in.ftpd

any idea ?

Subject: Problems with exec's. in anonymous
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hi there.

I'm having a slight? problem trying to get wuftpd-2.4 to work.
I have managed to get all the code to compile correctly (it would appear),
and tested the ftpd daemon with loggin's as myself, which all appears to work
fine.

However, having created a user 'ftp' and created the file hierarchy under
~ftp, when I try to login as anonymous the ls command (and all other exec's)
fail when invoked with a message:-

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

Presuming this to be a problem incurred by the CHROOT command that ftpd
performs with an anonymous login, I moved the executable 'ls' to the
~ftp/bin directory and tracked down all of the library files that it calls
with the 'ldd' command, moving them to the ~ftp/usr/lib directory.
Unfortunately this still didn't work. So, getting pretty desperate, I moved
the entire /usr/lib directory to ~ftp/usr/lib with no results.

The only other thing I could think of was to recompile the ftpd code, checking
that the _PATH_EXECPATH entry within src/pathnames.h was set correctly to
/bin (it's relative to ~ftp I think). This too produced no noticeable affect.

I have attempted to compile the GNU versions of 'ls' and similar commands
as static but had no luck in getting them to successfully compile.

Please could someone help me??

Thanks for any help..

Si.

I'm trying to compile wu-ftp 2.4 under SUN OS 4.1.3 with the gcc 2.5.8
compiler. When I "build s41" I keep getting undeclared error messages
for the variables :

1) formnames
2) strunames
3) modenames

All of these variables are in the yacc file - ftpcmd.c and ftpd.c
can't find them and dies during the compile. Any Ideas??????

Yes, I have noticed this too and am also curious why?

I've also noticed a difference in the output of ftpwho running Solaris 2.4.
Under SunOS 4.1.3, output looks like:

Service class local:
9485 ? S 0:00 -erendira.arc.nasa.gov: anonymous/marcel@ns (in.ftpd)
- 1 users ( 0 maximum)

Service class remote:
- 0 users ( 0 maximum)

Under Solaris 2.4, it looks like...

Service class remote:
8 S 0 5772 139 22 41 20 fc038328 350 fc26f85e ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 4223 139 35 41 20 fc3e5678 350 fc26f576 ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5770 139 42 41 20 fc534010 520 fc4b4296 ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5790 139 47 41 20 fc56ecc0 520 fc185b4e ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5738 139 66 41 20 fc037008 520 fc281c7e ? 0:01 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5732 139 38 41 20 fc275980 518 fc52e066 ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5769 139 80 41 20 fc56e660 350 fc357996 ? 0:03 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5747 139 23 41 20 fc4c6340 350 fc185f2e ? 0:00 in.ftpd
8 S 0 5779 139 32 41 20 fc535990 350 fc52e15e ? 0:00 in.ftpd
- 9 users ( 50 maximum)

Under SunOS 4.1.3, the output was a little more usefull. Any ideas on this
one?

Thanks,
Marcel Schlapfer

<You need to replace your ftp.h (/usr/include/arpa/ftp.h) with the one in the
<distibution (support directory).

I forgot about that. The reason my compile passed is that I did that for
the first time I built it.

I suggest that the INSTALL file include the above information. I'm sure putting
the info at the top of the file will save others from the same grief.

Interesting, I just did a "build s41" of 2.4.2-beta 5 without a single

I had WU-FTPD running fine (doesnt every story start out that way?) and
it started to give me the following error one time, and I dont remember
messing with any of the settings. This is on Solaris 2.4 on a Sparc5.

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

It does that for anonymous or real users. Any ideas? What file is it
looking for?

Also, I was wondering if there is an easy way to give access to a
directory based on domain. I know I can set a higher limit of local
users and such, but how can I give local users access to a directory like
~/local_only?

Thanks!
-Steve

you didn't say which OS you are running, but if it's a Sun running Solaris2x,
then make sure that ~ftp/dev/zero and ~ftp/dev/tcp exist along with any
library referenced by the execs. You can test your set up by the following:
(as root on the FTP server)
chroot ~ftp /bin/ls (the /bin/ls is with respect to ~ftp).

You can also use truss (or trace on SunOS) to watch what's being loaded.

You need /dev/zero and /dev/tcp in your ftp area.

Try the "autogroup" feature.

class foo.com real,guest,anonymous *.foo.com
autogroup localgroup foo.com

Yes. wu-ftpd logs in wtmp. This does NOT work under SunOS 5.4. It will have
to log in wtmpx. The problem is, that the structure is different. The wtmplog
code will have to be rewritten for this. It differs too much for a simple
one-or-two line patch.

But I don't know whether it stopped working because of a bug in the wtmp(x)
mechanisms or because of a intended change in these mechanisms.

You probably have some libraries missing in your ~ftp/usr/lib. You can use
the equivalent of SunOS trace command to find out which one are used or
get a staticly compiled version of ls. Make sure as well that ~ftp/dev/*
are properly created (you cannot "copy" those special files, use mknod)

hope it helps

As we get asked this question over and over again, could the maintainers
of wu-ftpd perhaps cause an error message to be displayed when this
happens that would make it clear what the problem is? I know that
when I had it I did some hacking and got an error message that made
it clear that a shared library was missing. It might be as simple as
checking the errno returned by exec, I don't recall.

If a clear error message was printed, much time could be saved.

Okay
I've recently compiled the wu-ftpd server.
I've run into a few problems. While the ftpd daemon works just fine,
it wont let me tar or gzip etc in any way shape or form.

i copied ls tar gzip to ~ftp/bin and made a soft link to
~ftp/bin/compress to my gzip. Yet a: get <dir>.tar
comes back error. I did copy the ftpconversions file to /usr/etc as
pathnames.h suggests and ckconfig reports everything where it belongs.

also i cant get any of these directory message files to display. I was
under the impression the a .message file in a dir would display on cd to
that dir, yet i tried that and the files are not displayed. any special
cavaets here?

if theres any fuller docs on setting this up please point me to thm?

Thanks,
Ron

I seem to recall that /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess holds the permissions and
conditions upon which messages are displayed (for instance at login
time), heres a blurb from my system:

message /etc/message LOGIN

where /etc/message is in (~ftp). the message file is not a (.) file, and
should be readable by everyone (someone please correct me if i'm wrong).

Currently,I have the -ld options.

I would like to monitor/log the ftp transaction--files and people.
What information can I expect to find the /usr/adm/wtmp file?
Currently it seems to have garbage...

hmm...you could always use tcp_wrappers with your ftpdaemon, it comes
with a file called 'xferlog' that contains the information you desire;
that is, once you've 'wrapped' your (ftpd), etc.

The wtmp file contains the 'last' login records. ftpd will put entries into
this file to record that an ftp user logged in. Did you use 'last' to view
this file?

I use the -l -a -L options, which will force ftpd to log all sessions and
all commands (made by users specified in ftpaccess) to the syslog.

In my ftpaccess I have the lines:
log commands guest,anonymous
log transfers real,guest,anonymous inbound,outbound
which logs all commands for all users except real (to the syslog), and all
file transfers (to the 'xferlog' file).

Remember to make sure that your /etc/syslog.conf has an entry for syslog
that your ftpd sends it logs to - 'daemon' is the default. So my
/etc/syslog.conf has the line:
daemon.info /var/log/daemonlog

Hope this helps,
Keith.

My system is Unix SVR4.2. The old ftpd is in.ftpd, its can use
every command right. When I change to use wu-ftpd, I found problem to use
"ls" command but I can use "dir or ls -a or ls -l" command. When I use
"ls" command the result is unknown caractor appear.
I compile everything go well. I try to find library that it need
and take it to ~ftp/usr/lib but nothing change. I try to compile static
library for new "ls" and replace it to ~ftp/bin and ~ftp/usr/bin but
nothing change. Then I try to check in ~ftp/dev and make new "tcp and
zero" by mknod again but nothing change.
If you have spare time please come to visit my ftp-server at
ftp.intanon.nectec.or.th. And please look the wrong thing to me, I'll
thank you so much.

Thank a lot.

That's funny. I run a wu server for two years now and always read those
postings saying the wu-ftp chapter in that book was _so_ great - well,
I got the book lately and had a look at that chapter out of curiousity
and have to say that it's complete crap. There is more information in
the original documentation (if you happen to read it). All the problems
people run into frequently and are not to be solved using the documentation
are not addressed. Just my two cents.

Hi there.

Can anyone tell me where I can get hold of a statically compiled version of
`ls` for Solaris 2.x (2.4 actually). The executable would be best, but C
source would also be appreciated.

I have tried to compile a GNU version of it, using the fileutils source, but
I got nowhere with it.

Thanks for any help.

Does SunOS 4.1.4 recognize
daemon.* /var/log/daemonlog

or do I have to break
daemon.*

into

daemon.info
daemon.debug
daemon.err

Thanks for the help.

I have included these lines in my ftpaccess file.
but the messages do not seem to show.?

readme README* login
readme README* cwd=*

message /welcome.msg login
message ~ftp/pub/.message cwd=*

What am I doing wrong?
I have included the -a flag for the ftpd to enable the ftpaccess file.
I am not clear whether the ftpaccess should be in the
/usr/local/etc/... or ~ftp/usr/etc/....

The ftpaccess file should be in /etc (which might be a link to /usr/etc
on your system or might not).

Good Luck

Subject: wu-ftpd on Solaris 2.4
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Sorry if this is documented somewhere, I couldn't find an archive site
or a FAQ...

I recently installed wu-ftpd 2.4 on a Solaris 2.4 system after having
run it successfully for ages on a SunOS 4.1.x system. Most things
seem to work fine, except:

wtmp isn't getting updated when someone logs on. This did
work immediately after I installed wu-ftpd but seems to have
stopped. Any ideas why?

ftpwho (and ps -ef) don't show info (system name, etc) on the
connections like they did under 4.1.x. Is this a feature of
Solaris 2.x or something wrong with the way I built wu-ftpd?

We are using anonymous ftp with this and it all seems to work except
for these two things. I've tried turning on all sorts of logging but
don't see any errors reported anywhere.

Thanks,

Jim

I believe that /usr/local/etc/ is the [default] place to put your
ftpaccess file. Also, the file does not have to be a dot-file (i.e.
message);

And, the path suggested in yoru ftp access file (message /pub/.message),
should be relative to your (ftp's -- home dir). For instance, I have mine
in ftp's /etc dir:
message /etc/message LOGIN

Hope some of this helps.

Please let me know if you do.

modified how?

NCSA has 3 HP workstations running on HP-UX... running wu-ftp 2.4 ... all
files served from AFS.

I installed the normal ftp server, and pointed the home directory to somewhere
in AFS land.

That's the default value now. The '-A' must be specified if you wish to
ignore the ftpaccess file. The previous versions had this option reversed.

Just remove the 'a'. It is not important now.

Thanks for the info, but I still have problems. The -L too has the
same problem as the 'a' option.
I still can't get the messages going.

Is there a way of finding out whether the ftpd is picking up the
ftpaccess file?

Also can some comment on the wrapper from my previous mail, and how
to use it? is it needed? and why?

Yeah, that's what I've done here and so far, mostly good.

--BUT--

First, while it seems to do a good job providing an anonymous ftp server,
it doesn't work if someone wants to ftp in with their own username/password
and access their home directory. Since it doesn't authenticate to AFS,
there is no token (unless they first telnet and klog).

Second, there is a security concern that Rick Cochran has pointed out
here before. If you happen to login to the ftp server as root, do a klog,
and leave a token owned by root laying around, all anonymous ftp users
will have access to that token until it expires (or you unlog it)!

I've found a pointer to an AFS-aware WUarchive FTPd on the AFS Reference
Page at http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu:8001/usr/db74/afs.html but
haven't checked it out yet. Hope to soon. Hopefully it does the right
thing. If you get to it first, how about a report?

This is going to be a very dumb question, but please bear with me.

The current, distributed, WU-ftpd is version 2.4, as available from
wustl.edu. Watching this list, I remember seeing discussion about
various patches for wu-ftpd to allow numerous features. These patches
are not available from wustl.edu, but is there an archive for these
patches, and more important a description of the supported features,
anywhere?

I'm seriously interested in having a system which responds differently
depending upon which network interface is used to get into the system.
For example, when ftping to 1.2.3.4, you would appear to reach a host
called "xxx.com", while going to 1.2.4.5 you get "yyy.gov". I remember
seeing discussion of this fairly recently.

Any information would be appreciated. I just looked over the FAQ(s),
there appear to be at least two, but see nothing about this. The list
archive that is advertised at "xxx.nasa.gov" for this list isn't
responding. I tried but failed!

I did it by using a hacked inetd that runs a different ftpd for each
IP address (I can't share that, it's proprietary but there must be
another solution out there since I'm not the only person doing
viritual hosts, and if someone knows of a free inetd that does virtual
hosts please let me know, I didn't find one mentioned at
http://www.thesphere.com/~dlp/TwoServers) and have patched ftpd (not
the latest beta) to override the ~ftp home directory used for anon ftp
by a command line option.

It's at ftp::/israel,nysernet.org/ftpd

Hi,
I just subscribed to this list and was
wondering if there is a FAQ available. I've
also got one problem and a question:

Problem: Can't seem to get the SITE commands
to work. Always get a "?Invalid command" error
on the client and it doesn't show up in the
command list. Any magic to turning on this
feature?

Question: Can the annonymous account be setup
to allow sublogins(it appears only real accounts
have this privilege)?

Server specs: SPARC w/ SunOS4.1.3_U1 running wu-2.4

The problem only shows up on Sun clients. HP &
AIX systems can see the site commands. Is Sun
using some brain-dead version of ftp?

Subject: guestgroup question
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I am trying to set up a 'guest' group to allow a client and his clients a
seperate ftp area on one of our servers.

I set up an /etc/group entry, let's say client and a passwd entry, let's
say userclnt.

group:
client:*:21:userclnt

passwd:
userclnt:apassword:202:21::/clnt/ftp/./out:/bin/false

I also added the line:

guestgroup client

to ftpaccess.

Access is still denied everytime when I try to test it. Anyone have an
idea about this?

Thanks

Thanks once again to all. Things seem to be working better.

How does one deny access to all from *.com or *.org for instance?

What kind of an entry would I include to do this?

Make sure that /bin/false is in the /etc/shells file.

Took a look here, thanks for the information. I will have to wait
until Tuesday to really review this, I'm going on a four day
vacation.

Again, thanks.

Will look here also. I assume that you really meant
"israel.nysernet.org" and the comma is a typo.

I feel like a idiot, I haven't had my morning coffee quota yet. I
meant to only reply to the original sender, but I believe that I
screwed up and sent my reply to the list, sorry.

Anyway, to make a VERY public statement, THANKS! It's nice to know
that there are good people out there. I wish that I were one of them.

Yes, Sun (at least with SunOS 4.x, I don't know about Solaris) uses a
brain dead version of the ftp client which does not support the use of
the "SITE" command.

A VERY simple solution is to obtain the BSD ftp client software and
compile it on the Sun and replace the SunOS version. I don't remember
exactly what was necessary, but considering that I did it, it can't be
too difficult. If anyone is really interested, I can track this down
for you, but the sources are available all over the place.

I've just set that exact process up with a program called TCP Wrappers. It
allows you to look for origin or destination addresses and act upon them.
It basically sits between inetd and whatever daemon program you will be
running (it works for telnet and WWW too). Basically, you have to compile
different
wu-ftpd if you would like to change the options for each system (for example,
I changed several directories, and changed the chroot() command for each
instance of the program I am running). Then I configured TCP Wrappers to
run different daemons depending upon the address of the ftp request(there
was also and ifconfig in there somewhere to set up an alias for the machine).

Hope that was what you were looking for.

Okay -- everyone knows that having one machine that can respond
differently to URLs like http://alpha.com/ and http://bravo.com/ is a
good thing, and that it can't just be done with DNS CNAMEs.

The quoted message below is from the Washington University FTP Daemon
mailing list, wu-ftpd. It seems to indicate that you can make this
happen with TCP-Wrapper. Previously, I'd gotten a URL from Prentiss,
<http://www.thesphere.com/%7Edlp/TwoServers/>, that documented another
approach.

What would be the difference between having destination-address
sensitive HTTP, FTP (or, hmmmm... in.telnetd...) daemons using
TCP-Wrapper and using one of the methods (interface aliasing with
ifconfig, or defining numerous routing PPP interfaces) described at URL
<http://www.thesphere.com/%7Edlp/TwoServers/>?

Am I missing something here? It seems like TCP Wrapper is the better
solution, 'cause you get to install more security on your machine as
well. Wait -- maybe I am missing something. TCP Wrapper can't possibly
make your machine respond to additional IP addresses, right? You've
still got to do the http://www.thesphere.com/%7Edlp/TwoServers/ thing to
make the IP address work on a given interface, but once that address
works, then, I guess, your choice is to either use patched daemons (or
daemons that are smart enough to be used with virtual interfaces) or use
TCP Wrapper to mediate the access.

Do I appear to have a moderately clear understanding of this issue? Any
obvious lack of clue?

cheers,
-KwM-

oh -- btw, Cathy. My condolences on becoming sole support of the world.

Sorry, the comma should be a period.

If anyone else wants to use this (or another solution, I don't care)
let's get together and make it an official part of wuftpd.

I seem to have a problem with mput and mget commands. I'm running NetBSD,
and the system compiled with minimum modification to the make files.
Unfortunately, any time I try to use a multiple file command, the connection
is closed after the first file. Additionaly files (when you respond with a
'y') simply give the error that the data connection is closed. My
configuration specifies a limit of 10 files for all users. Any ideas out there?

I'm new to this group mainly because I'm having group problems with our
wu-ftpd. We're running it on a RS6000 with AIX 3.2.5 and here is the
problem:

When logging in as an authorized user, the group permissions are ignored.
Only the world permissions and owner permissions are used. Do I happen to
have something misconfigured? Another interesting problem is when I do a
SITE GROUPS all I get returned is:
214-Group membership is:
214

Any help would be appreciated.

No, wu-ftpd is broken in the way it handles groups for AIX. I've got a
patch to fix it:

I applied a patch that Bryan gave me to enable PASV, yet I am

We seem to intermittently get timeouts when getting "large" (10MB) files
from our new wu-ftpd server outside our firewall to systems inside. It
used to work all the time when using HP's ftpd. When it happens about
2MB has been transferred in just a few seconds and it just sits for 15
minutes and times out. Has anyone else had and solved this problem?

This is what I get:

200 PORT command successful.

I had a similar problem just befor two days. I installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5
on a system with SINIX-5.42 (SVR4). After this our www-server (cern-httpd3.0)
fails to open the ftp-connection for proxy-clients.
The simply solution (I checked it after 1day) was that I have no
write-permission on ~/dev/tcp (may be I should read the manulapage
to the system-ftpd better). First I think it was an error in the
libsocket since the message was generated due to a failed open of
socket(). My message looks like this:
Can't open passive connection: permission denied
On your message I would say you don't have a ~/dev/tcp in your chroot.
I think the passive mode is the only method to open a socket after
the chroot and so it don't hurt users who don't connect the server
through the proxy-server (I don't know if other www-servers also
use passive mode, or should I say, befor this problem I never
heard from a passive mode :-)
You can simply check this with telnet:

telnet host.domain 21
USER ftp
PASS [email protected]
PASV

Hmmm,
What was this fix.

When i first installed i accidentally had the -A switch (disable
ftpaccess file) in my inetd.conf. Noone could log in, real or anonymous,
till i realized i needed the /etc/shells file, with contents:
/bin/sh
/bin/bash
/bin/csh
/bin/tcsh

After creating that, all went well. for a while....
Then i realized i wasnt getting .message files and no .tarring of dirs.
Figured out i had accidentally disabled ftpaccess file usage in
inetd.conf with that -A switch. So i removed it...and now nobody,
anonymous or real can get in, they all get access denied. Acts like when
i had no /etc/shells file. Simply put back -A again and everything works
fine, so im inclined to think that the passwd and groups files are okay,
seems something in the default ftpaccess from doc/examples is disabling
access to everyone.

HELP!!!!
Ron

Without seeing your ftpaccess file (hint,hint,hint), its hard to say
what's wrong. The manual page for ftpaccess does a good job of explaining
what needs to be in there. You may need to define a class, etc before
users will be allowed to log in. Also check to make sure you haven't
misconfigured another feature to deny access, which is being applied to
all users.

Maybe even read the man page, if you are really desperate :)

If i found the answer in the manpage, would i be asking for help here? <G>

/etc/shells: (Note we have no Bash)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/bin/tcsh
/bin/csh
/bin/sh

Yet as i said, nobody can loggin now.

There is one entry for ftp in /etc/passwd and one entry in ~ftp/passwd
for ftp. There is a group 'anonymous' defined in /etc/groups, and
repeated with the same GID in ~ftp/group. Also the GID matches for user
ftp in /etc/passwd and ~ftp/passwd, also the UID matches for ftp in
/etc/passwd and ~ftp/passwd

well thats about it i guess...

Thanks again if you can spot my stupid mistake,
Trylax

I try to install wu-ftp2.4 under solaris2.4

Everything is OK, except that i didn't succeed in getting owner names rather

ftp:*:901:900:Anonymous ftp:/usr/local/ftp:/bin/false

~ftp/etc/group :

other:*:1:

when i do "ls -al" in ~ftp :

drwxr-xr-x 7 ftp archive 512 Jul 21 09:09 ./

Hello fellow ftpers'

I'm attempting to configure a FTP server to make use of the special guest
features of WU-FTPD.

Here's the backround:
Several different Groups of guests, each Group is chroot()ed into a
different tree. (ex. GroupA has guest1, guest2, guest3. GroupB has guest4,
guest5) I have built a symbolic link for directories under guest1 to
point to a directory under guest5.

Here's the question:
When guest1 cd's to that directory (which is really now under guest5),
and tries to cd .. guest1 now can go up guest5 tree instead of returning
to their home directory. Is there a way I can fix this?

using ls which comes with solaris 2.4, you will need these library to make
it work properly:

---x--x--- 1 bin web 97804 Jul 16 1994 ld.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jul 7 18:32 libc.so -> ./libc.so.1
-r--r----- 1 bin web 621540 Mar 9 15:30 libc.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 7 18:32 libdl.so -> libdl.so.1
-r--r----- 1 bin web 3492 Jul 15 1994 libdl.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jul 7 18:32 libintl.so ->
libintl.so.1
-r--r----- 1 bin web 13516 Jul 15 1994 libintl.so.1
-r--r----- 1 bin web 88868 Jul 16 1994 libld.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jul 7 18:32 libw.so -> libw.so.1
-r--r----- 1 bin web 41704 Jul 15 1994 libw.so.1

If you want as well to see what's in etc/password and /etc/group instead
od number, add

nss_files.so.1

and finally, if you want to see who is logging in with ftp using the
last command, you have to use wu-ftp 2.4.2BETA5. The "old" wu-ftp 2.4
cannot log entry in wtmpx

or else, get a static version of ls.

good luck

Thanks for the info, Winfried. Unfortunately, I do have a /dev/tcp
file in the chroot'ed directory. :( BTW, I am using the WU-FTPd
distribution (not Sloan's beta release which does include PASV sup-
port). Short of running the server in a debugger, is there a way
to figure out WHICH files is not found? Thanks!

Sean.

I had a similar problem just befor two days. I installed wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5
on a system with SINIX-5.42 (SVR4). After this our www-server (cern-httpd3.0)
fails to open the ftp-connection for proxy-clients.
The simply solution (I checked it after 1day) was that I have no
write-permission on ~/dev/tcp (may be I should read the manulapage
to the system-ftpd better). First I think it was an error in the
libsocket since the message was generated due to a failed open of
socket(). My message looks like this:
Can't open passive connection: permission denied
On your message I would say you don't have a ~/dev/tcp in your chroot.
I think the passive mode is the only method to open a socket after
the chroot and so it don't hurt users who don't connect the server
through the proxy-server (I don't know if other www-servers also
use passive mode, or should I say, befor this problem I never
heard from a passive mode :-)
You can simply check this with telnet:

telnet host.domain 21
USER ftp
PASS [email protected]
PASV

We have some users who are trying to tranfer some very large files (> 500

I've quickly scanned the code and the only reference I can see no reference
to a timeout *during* a file transfer. The two constants in ftpd.c

int timeout = 900; /* timeout after 15 minutes of inactivity */
int maxtimeout = 7200; /* don't allow idle time to be set beyond 2
* hours */

don't have anything to do with the 3600 seconds they talk about here.

Can anyone give me a pointer where to look?

Thanks,

Subject: Yet more group problems, this time with autogroup
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Well, since everyone is enjoying group commands in
wu-ftpd, I thought I'd add my woes to the chorus.

Disclaimer: I *have* read both the man pages and the relevant
section of the book by Liu, et. al. (section 5.4.4). ;-)

I want to set up a class of anonymous users and give
them permission to cd into certain directories and
download certain files.

1. With that in mind, I created a group, ftpwec, by adding a
statement to /etc/group (and, just to be sure, to
~ftp/etc/group):

ftpwec:*:3200:ge,key

2. The autogroup commands apparently give certain group
privileges to certain classes of anonymous users. So I
created the class "wec" in the ftpaccess file:

class wec anonymous *.mcnc.org,*.ncsc.org

As I understand it, this command specifies that
anonymous ftp users from the mcnc.org and ncsc.org
domains will be assigned to the wec class.

3. The last step is to give ftpwec group privileges to
the wec class of anonymous users. According to the book
and the man pages, this is done with the autogroup
command in ftpaccess:

autogroup ftpwec wec

After doing all that, I should be able to ftp to my
machine as anonymous and be automatically assigned to
the ftpwec group, provided that I log in from a machine
in the right domain (I am using asterix.ncsc.org).

However, when I do an anonymous ftp to this machine,
it doesn't allow me to retrieve files that are readable by ftpwec group.
This is illustrated by the following (slightly edited) script:

Script started on Mon Jul 24 16:42:36 1995

As you can see, members of the group ftpwec should be able to
read the file hdmp2.gds. But anonymous doesn't have permission
to do that in spite of my trying to set it up that way.

If anyone can help me with this problem, I would be very grateful.

By the way, the owner of the files, wec, can ftp in as a "real"
user whose home directory is ~ftp/wec/home so that she can
upload files directly onto the ftp server. This is done with
the guestgroup command in /etc/ftpaccess. So *one* of these
group commands works as advertised! ;-)

Use group access on the dir's to control access. ie make A and B
members of some group and change the group owenrship of the dir in
guest5 to the new group. Then make all dirs up guest5's tree owned
by group B, and o-rwx.

According to the Solaris 2.4 manuals you need much more, but nss_nis.so.1
and nss_nisplus.so.1 are probably not needed. And they may not all be
needed for ls.

There are only one section in wu-ftpd-2.4 and/or wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta5
which generate this error message, both in ftpd.c in the function passive().
You can change one of the messages in the source, so you see if the error
occurs on socket() or on bind().
A eayse way to check for missing files ist to trace the syestemcalls.
I don't know which system you are running, but here are examples
for some systems:

pid is the process-id of the ftpd. You can start the trace just befor
you try PASV.

for SGI with IRIX5:
par -s -SS -p <pid>

for SVR4:
truss -p <pid>

for SunOS4:
trace -p <pid>

Sorry, I don't know the command for all sytems :-)

regards

winfried

I guess ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/ is official wu-ftpd home;
The site ftp://ftp.academ.com/ contains Academ's version of
wu-ftpd, modified by Stan Barber <[email protected]>.

In trying to track down a problem I previously reported having to do with
timeouts during file transfers, I tried using the "SITE IDLE" command to
see what the idle timeout default and maximum settings were and found that
none of the SITE commands seem to work. I can't find anyhting in the docs
(other than SITE GPASS and SITE GROUP) about whether these need to be
enabled. How do I get to use these commands?

Thanks,

Turns out that the problem was caused by a timer in the Interlock gateway
machine that my user was going through. It has a built-in session timer
that was set to 3600 seconds. They've uped the limit and are running again.

Thanks anyway for listening,

Dennis

The trick is to do "quote site blah" rather than just "site blah".
See the example below. I hope it helps.

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

Hi there. Last week I posted this problem, and received a single
response, which did not help. So here I go again.

I've set up ftpconversions with WU 2.4 (standard version, patched to
allow the passive conenctions required by Web browsers) on Solaris 2.3.
For a while, my conversions worked fine. Now they don't. I don't know
if I've just completely forgotten the syntax for using them, or what.
The executables are all in ~ftp/bin, ~ftp/bin is set at 111, my ftpaccess
file has the following entries:

uncompress yes *
compress yes *
tar yes *

and my ftpconversions file is set up like this:

:.Z: : :/bin/compress -d -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS
: : :.Z:/bin/compress -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_COMPRESS:COMPRESS
:.gz: : :/bin/gzip -d -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:GUNZIP
: : :.gz:/bin/gzip -9 -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_COMPRESS:GZIP
: : :.tar:/bin/tar -c -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_TAR:TAR
: : :.tar.Z:/bin/tar -c -Z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+COMPRESS
: : :.tar.gz:/bin/tar -c -z -f - %s:T_REG|T_DIR:O_COMPRESS|O_TAR:TAR+GZIP
:.zip: : :/bin/unzip %s:T_REG|T_ASCII|T_DIR:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNZIP
: : : .zip:/bin/zip -9 %s:T_REG|T_DIR|T_ASCII:O_COMPRESS:ZIP

When I try to get the file ls-lR.Z to come over as an ASCII file rather
tha compressed, I've been doing this:

ftp> get ls-lR

The way I understand the conversions, if the file ls-lR.Z exists in
the current directory, then getting the file ls-lR should tell wuftpd to
give me the uncompressed ls-lR.Z. Is this right?

Thanks in advance!

I sent this on Friday, but did not get any more messages on this mailing
list until Sunday. My apologies if this is a duplicate, but I have not
seen any responses.

This is not a timeout problem but is a "get" hanging problem. Does the
following sound familiar to anybody?

Umm, here's my report:

First off, it appears that it's only been modified for AIX.
The src/makefiles/Makefile.aix is the only one with AFS libs/includes
etc added. It would probably be trivial to add them to the other Makefiles.

Second, I had to modify src/ftpd.c and add:
=====================================================
#include <afs/stds.h>
=====================================================
to the first AFS #define statement. (This was to fix silly syntax
errors in structures that used both u_int32 and int32 in AFS header
files.) That was line 122 of src/ftpd.c.

Third, the daemon appears to function correctly with both an AFS
authentication, and anonymous sessions.

Fourth, I'm not sure if the PAG is cleared when the session has been
terminated.

General background: Compiled using AIX's cc, running OS 3.2.5.0, and
AFS version 3.3. (The source code is wu-2.4 which is nice.)

Keith,
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it but it didn't seem to help. The
different groups I mentioned are chroot()ed into different trees. I
thinks that is the main problem. In looking at the doc is seem link in
chroot()ed directories are relative to the chroot(). I'm going to
re-think the file system layout.

I have the following line in my ftpaccess file:

limit remote 3 Any /etc/ftp/msg.tomany

But only the following is running:

ps ax | grep ftp
616 ? IW 0:00 -133.67.170.220: anonymous/@: LIST (in.ftpd)
3876 p4 S 0:00 grep ftp

Even that should have gone away, since it has been there a while.

If I try to anonymous ftp login, I get the too many user message. If I kill
the current ftp, it doesn't help.

If I remove ftp.pids-local and ftp.pids-remote, and then touch them, I
can get it and it says that I am the first caller (1 of three).

Are the access logs not getting updated correctly?

Here is the version reported at login:

220 ftms FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-5](1) Tue Jul 18 15:23:22 CDT 1995) ready.

Any hints will be appreciated.

I need to add some functionality to my wu-ftpd. I'm making a server where
users have ftp-only access, and beyond normal ftp commands, they only need
to chmod files, and check their quotas.

So, in particular, I need to add the following functionality:

1) I need to make it support quotas. If the daemon receives a message saying
the user is over the soft quota, it should give the user a message after the
transfer. If the user is at/over the hard quota, the transfer (to the
machine only) should be aborted.

2) I need to allow the users to check their quota, using the command
"quota -v", like chmod and other "non-standard" commands.

3) I will also need to add shadow-passwd support, but I believe that is just
a re-compile away with the new libraries/headers.

I have the source for everything, and will be willing to hack it, if I can
get a clue as to where to put these in.

I'm running Linux, Slackware distribution.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Okay, I finally got my wu-ftpd server working good. Reads the ftpaccess
file, lets the right people in, displays the nice .message files,
and ALMOST lets you get <dir>.tar and <dir>.tar.gz

It correctly gets a <dir>.tar or .tar.gz
exept that it gets 0 byte files!
yes i copied tar, gzip to ~ftp bin, and made a link for compress.

any ideas? when it cant find tar it yells about that, it didnt yell. said
no problem, opening data connection, and creates a zero bite file on the
local side.....

Thanks,
Trylax

You really need tar from GNU !

Be sure that it's working in a chroot() env. To try it, do
a cd ~/ftp. Then, do "chroot . tar cvf tarfile your-dir-in-ftp".

If it's works, it should with ftp.

If it doesn't, get the GNU tar and be sure to link standalone. If you
link with dynamic libraries it won't work.

Hi all,

I have just installed wu-ftpd2.4.
Currently I cannot invoke the "compress" feature when retrieving
a <file>.Z (real name is <file>).

The error I got is

200 PORT command successful.
550 Local error: conversion program not found. Cannot COMPRESS file.

My ftpconversions entries:

:.Z: : :/bin/compress -d -c %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_UNCOMPRESS:UNCOMPRESS
: : :.Z:/bin/compress -c %s:T_REG:O_COMPRESS:COMPRESS

My "compress" program is in both /usr/bin/compress as well as ~/ftp/bin

Could someone please tell me what I've done wrong?

Thanks
Tien Dao

I've noticed that we've had an increased number of ftp connections that
linger around forever, eventually becoming <defunct>, still taking up a
slot in the ftpusers list. My gut feeling based on the output from ftpwho
is that some web browsers and other ftp clients are using PASV and are
not connecting like they should.

Has anyone else seen a similar problem, and more importantly, does anyone
have a fix? This occurs under wu-ftpd version 2.4.

Hi,

we have the same problem here (wu-ftpd 2.4, Solaris 1.1/SunOS 4.1.3). It
started about half a year ago.

Please send a summary to the wu-ftpd list if you find a solution. Thank you.

compile and install went fine. The problem is when I try to ftp in the
server doesn't respond. I have included the following line inetd.conf:

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

and verified that /usr/local/etc/ftpd is the right location.

I don't even see any error messages in syslog.

Any ideas? Thannks in advance.

Subject: old ftp processes hanging around
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]

Hello,
We're running wu-ftpd 2.4 on a Sparc Classic, SunOS 4.1.3_U1

Works mostly great.

We're noticing that a number of old ftp processes seem to get
left hanging around. For example There is right now an ftpd process
sitting there since July 21 (today is the 27th):

% ps auxc | egrep ftp
..
ftp 2830 0.0 0.0 788 0 ? IW Jul 24 0:00 ftpd
ftp 1740 0.0 0.0 788 0 ? IW Jul 21 0:00 ftpd
ftp 3676 0.0 0.0 788 0 ? IW Jul 24 0:00 ftpd
..

Is this a common problem? Is there a simple solution? We were
considering just setting up a cron job with kills anything older
than 24 hours. I'm not keen on that, as it strikes me as a bit
of a bandage solution. I would prefer that the server didn't leave
old copies of itself hanging around.

Thanks,

I sent 2 removal requests to the listserv a while back...
Something seems rather broken since I'm obviously
not unsubscribed... please make sure I'm off this list.

PS: This list has been a really good resource, I'm no longer
managing any wu-FTP related projects and thus need off
the list.

(FLAME PROTECTION ON)
Again, I realize that this is the list and not the listserv but
it didn't work when I tried it.

Greetings!

(BTW, if there's a FAQ for this list/software, please, point me to it! :-)

I have compiled and installed wu-ftp 2.4 on bsdi 1.1. There were several
compiler warnings but no errors. For reasons I won't go into here, I need
to install wu-ftpd on a non-standard port. I believe I have most everything
set up correctly but when I try to login as a real user, the process hangs
with the following message in the syslog file:

sleeping: flock of pid file failed: Operation not supported

(I haven't tried logging in as anonymous or guest).

Any pointers?

ThanksInAdvance!

This happens on my server all the time. I have to check daily and kill
hanging processes. This is on AIX 3.2.5 and AIX 4.1.2. Setting the timeout
explicitly on the command line didn't help.

This is not true. It works for me dynamically linked on AIX 3.2.5, 4.1
and on Linux. You just have to make sure that the dynamic linker finds
its files. Actually, the programs in my chroot environments are hard links
to the executables outside (/usr/bin and /usr/ftp/bin reside on the same
file system).

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I am a newbie to the wu-ftpd - having it installed
yesterday and spent the rest of the time looking
at docs to resolv the following problem

I want a real account, say user1, to connect to the server
and download files from a certain directory only.

I have set the guestgroup in the ftpaccess file and
may have an improper format in etc/passwd file - i think
cause I am not too clear of the path

user1:x:903:901:User 1:/ftp/./export/home/user1/download:/bin/csh

When I try ftp, I get the error

550 Can't set guest privileges.
Login failed.

I would appreciate any help or pointers to the problem

Thanks ... Ratilal

Make sure that group specified in the 'guestgroups' line in ftpaccess
really exists in /etc/group. It must also be group 901 as called out in
your passwd file. It was unclear if you had done all of this.

In the above, the user would be chroot'ed into the /ftp directory as home
directory. This can be changed by moving the /./ to a different place in
the path.

You don't have to have the /bin/csh on the passwd line; you could set it
to /etc/ftponly. That name needs to be defined in /etc/shells, but it
does not have to exist. This way the account cannot be used to log in.

Sounds like you are close; hope this helps get you closer

Hi,
I'm trying to setup guest users on my system but
keep getting:

530 User guest1 access denied...
Login failed.

when I try to login. Here are the details.....

/etc/passwd file:
guest1:x:30001:20:guest1 ftp account:/export/home/customers/./guest1:/noshell

/etc/group file:
guests:*:20:guest1

ftpaccess file:
class guests guest *
guestgroup guests

Is there another file where I have to list valid guest users
or something?????

Thanks,

Joe

Do you have `/noshell' in /etc/shells? There is no need for /noshell to
really exist, but there must be an entry for it in /etc/shells (or
wherever your system lists valid shells).

I spent the last two days installing and configuring ftpd.
Platform is SunOS4.1.3_U1 (gatekeeper.fnx.com)
I have everything working; except NOTHING is being logged into
/var/log/syslog NOR is there anything in /usr/adm/xferlog
(syslog does have sendmail's logging into it, just not ftpd's)
I want to log all commands and transfers in both directions.

I think I followed the instructions correctly...
In /etc/inetd.conf I have:

And in /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess I have:

I would suggest checking in pathnames.h to be sure syslog and xferlog are
pointing to the right files and paths.

also you need -i to log files received to xferlog perhaps?

I have not been very successful mailing to this list yet. I stop
getting list mail for a day or two each time I try. Let me try
again. Please CC me directly via email if you send a reply.
My apologies again if you have gotten this before, especially if you
replied to the list. I think the problem may be I sent them to
[email protected] instead of [email protected]

I should add here that ftp "get" from our Solaris system with bundled
ftpd just outside our firewall works fine also, but wuftpd on our HP
next to it intermittently pauses until timeout with a large file "get".
I don't change any parameters except setting binary mode.

Thanks,

Subject: Providing Upload Areas
X-Mailer: Pegasus Mail/Windows (v1.11a)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

FTP Administrators !!

I would like to get some feedback on policies that current wu-ftpd
administrators set up when using an anonymous "incoming" area (an
anonymous FTP directory that allows users "write" access).

We are a software developer that currently provides demos and
upgrades via anonymous FTP. Many of our customer's have requested
that we provide an area on our anonymous FTP area that would allow
users to "put" related files there such as conversion utilities,
drivers, tips, etc. I'm concerned that users that venture into this
"third-party" area would expect that our company is responsible for
making sure these third-party utilities,etc. work properly
regardless of how many disclaimers we force upon them when they
enter this area.

I'm concern that users could put utilities there that contain
viruses that could either wipe out our UNIX box OR wipe out the
customers system.

The wu-ftpd logs don't really give us a direct trace back to the
person that loaded the file (unless they actually put in there "true"
email address as their password)

I'm also concerned that users could try to put very large files in
there that would take up all our available space and possibly crash
our host.

I think a safer solution is to setup a separate FTP acount or a
special anonymous password to direct them to another area where they
could only "put" stuff. Then our tech support dept could review the
incoming file, scan for viruses, make sure it's a valid item, and
move it to the anonymous area.

Then there is still the concern of users blaming us for the what the
utility does regardless of how many disclaimers we have saying "we're
not responsible". Are we still legally responsible in some way since
we are providing these files to users ??

...or should we have one of our customers setup this kind of
service on their own host and have them handle it.

Anyone know of any documents out there that talk anout this kind of
issue (RFC, etc.)

Any thoughts/experiences you have on this are greatly appreciated.
Sorry that this posting is really a "policy" type posting and not a
"functional/technical" posting about wu-ftpd....so please send them
directly to me if you feel this is not appropiate for the list.

Thank you.

Just did the same myself - probably you want this in /etc/syslog.conf :-

daemon.debug @loghost

(or whatever) and send a HUP to syslog.

That should sort out syslog, cant help you with xferlog though, worked
fine for me first time.

Do you have trouble loading from the Internet (i.e. not going through
your firewall? If you don't then I would look to the firewall or some
kind of interaction between the HP and firewall. Depends on the firewall
what that could be (router(s), application proxy, etc.).

We have an upload area that is used by customers to pass data to us

Yes. You are not in the business of running an ftp service for
the benifit of ALL users. You should be running it to support
your product (and the sales/marketing of it).

Also, you should have a mechanism to get feedback from your users.
This will allow them to request specific additions to the archive.
That way YOU are in control of what's in it (after all you own the
resource)

I have just installed wu-ftpd on a FreeBSD 2.0.5 system. I am able to log
in via ftp. UL and DL work fine. Messages work etc. I also obtained
independant versions of tar, gzip, compress etc. However, I am unable to
get xxxxx.tar or xxxx.tar.gz retreivals to work. It seems that the
ftpconversions file is not being seen, or the executables in ~ftp/bin are
not seen....ckconfig responds OK

Does anyone have a checklist/suggestions that I could follow to debug this?
I am stumped...

I think I've found out why this is happening. There is a buglet in fht
ftpd.c code that explains this. One is that of you specify the timeout
on the ftpd command line in your inetd.conf, there must be no space
between the '-t' and the timeout period, e.g., '-t1800' will work but
'-t 1800' will not. The second component of this problem might be (I
say "might", don't flame me if you know better!) that the 'timeout' and
'maxtimeout' variables are not declared as 'extern' in ftpd.c. On my
system (AIX 3.2.5.1), adding 'extern' to these declarations in ftpd.c
and removing the whitespace on the inetd.conf line fixed the problem.
It may be that all I had to do was remove the whitespace.

There is a bug in the original code that an accept() call had no guard
timer around it. This and many other bugs fixes have been pulled together
into a new beta release. You can get it at

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5.tar.gz

I think the file name is correct. The private directory is write only,
so I had to reconstruct the tar file name.

Many thanks to Stan for pulling this together and giving it a home.

On the advice of a member of the list, I've checked all my binaries,
libraries, permissions, and even recompiled. My ftpconversions file
seems to be OK, I've enabled conversions in ftpaccess, and yet, I still
get errors like the following (while trying to compress the file
s_mt-oly.gif on the fly):

ftp> binary 200 Type set to I.
ftp> get s_mt-oly.gif.Z 200 PORT command successful. 550
s_mt-oly.gif.Z: No such file OR directory.
ftp>

Does anyone have any new ideas?

Ditto!

Same EXACT problem! I'm running Wu-FTPD 2.4 that came PREinstalled =
on a Linux box (Slakware distribution). So in fact I really NEVER =
had
to set anything up, just a bit of tweaking with the ftpaccess =
file.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there.

I've just started working with WU-FTPD and I am having a bit of a problem.
I hope someone out there can help. I'm running on NetBSD 1.0, and I lose
the control connection after the first file transfer. The system reports an
exit on signal 11 (segmentation fault) and dumps core. Any suggestions or
ideas?

In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>; from "[email protected]" at Jul 28, 95 7:41 pm
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Today, I found when I remove the public search from ~ftp/incoming
(for example, chmod ~ftp/incoming 773), ~ftp/incoming owned by root.wheel,
the upload keyword in ftpaccess no longer work correctly.
Platform: Linux 1.2.11 on Pentium 60S.

Here is part of /etc/ftpaccess:
# specify the upload directory information
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /incoming/dl no
upload /home/ftp /incoming/up yes root rob 0660 nodirs
upload /home/ftp /bin no
upload /home/ftp /etc no

If I give the public search permission, everything goes OK.

If I take out the public search permission, there are follow problems:

1. the file/dir will be owned by ftp.bin instead of root.rob
(rob is defined in both ~ftp/etc/group and /etc/group)

2. can't upload in /incoming/up

3. can mkdir in /incoming/up (and downward), owned by ftp.bin,
permission 775.

If I put in /etc/ftpaccess:
upload /home/ftp * yes root rob 0660 nodirs

Then people can upload to /incoming/up, but ownership still ftp.bin

The reason to remove the search permission from /incoming is that
I don't want different clients to see others' upload. I create different
dirs for different clients.

Any solution?

Sorry, in my previous post, I wrote the word "public search" that
should be "public read" (permission).

Michael,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried getting a 10MB file from an outside
site with no problem (about 10 times). From inside our firewall I can
get > 10MB files from ftp.x.org and from the other (Solaris) system on
the same subnet as our wuftp/www server. I'll have to do more testing,
but it looks like it's only through our firewall and only to the ftp
server that we have a problem. FYI, I'll put the test file in
ftp://ftp.brooktree.com/pub/ftptest if perchance you wanted to try.

Thanks,
Boyd

Subject: problems under Solaris 2.4
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Hi. I just compiled wu-ftp-2.4 on a Sun Sparc 20 running Solaris
2.4. After configuring it, I tested it by logging in both as
anonymous and as a regular user. In both cases, I could log in and
use the "cd" and "ls" commands. However, when I tried to use "get",
wu-ftpd aborted. The log file says only that wu-ftpd exited on signal
11 (SEGV).

I made two changes to get wu-ftpd-2.4 to compile. The first was
changing the compiler to gcc in ./support/makefiles/Makefile.sol. The
second was adding the missing #ifdef in ./src/extensions.c:

979,983c979
< #ifdef HAVE_GETCWD
< (void) getcwd(cwd,MAXPATHLEN-1);
< #else
< (void) getwd(cwd);
< #endif
---
> (void) getwd (cwd);

Has anyone else gotten wu-ftpd to work with Solaris 2.4? Has anyone
else encountered this particular problem? Is there an FAQ for this
mailing list?

You could limit inputs to an imcoming directory only,
and mount a separate filesystem over that directory.
Only that filesystem could be filled if someone decided to upload lots.

Subject: Group permissions for real and anonymous users?
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Below you will find a bit of pseudocode describing my understanding of
users, classes, group permissions, etc. under wu-ftpd.

Interspersed in the code are four (4) questions. I'm pretty sure - in
fact I hope - that my understanding is incorrect, but I need your help
to figure out where.

At this point, imagine that a user ftp's into wu-ftpd system.

if user is anonymous
ftpd chroots to ~ftp

if anonymous user's domain matches a domain in a class command,
anonymous user is assigned a special class
[Q1: How can you tell if the class command works?]

if the anonymous user's class is in an autogroup command,
anonymous user is granted command's group privileges
[Q2: If this command works for anyone, could
you please explain how you did it and how you
can tell if it worked or not?]
else
anonymous user's access depends on other privileges
end if

end if

else if user is real
ftpd chroots to real user's home directory,
so real user cannot get to ~ftp directory!
[Q3: Is there any way to allow access to ~ftp?]

if real user is declared as groupguest in ftpaccess,
real user can access files under ~user
else
real user can access files under ~user
end if
[Q4: Even if the groupguest command worked
(and I can't get it to), real users still
can't access ~ftp, can they?]

end if

I would appreciate any help you can give me on these questions.

X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Having problems with getting wu-ftp (2.4) to run on INTERACTIVE UNIX.

There is a config for isc, and it did built 'out the box' (using
gcc 2.5.8 on ISC 4.1). It ran OK, and accepted anon logins, but
would not read a password from a real user until I extracted crypt.o
from libc.a and added it to the list of objects (instead of grabbing
crypt.o out of libcposix.a presumably).

OK, so now I can get folks logging in to it (real or anonymous), but
'list' commands return nothing, though nlist commands are OK. Also, pwd
commands do not work for anonymous logins. I've had to pull the plug
on it for the minute and go back to the vendors server, which is a
shame, since I've got wu-ftp going nicely on SunOS and Solaris2.[34]
[sparc & x86]. The vendors server BTW is functioning OK, so I surmise
that the anonymous login is set up correctly.

So, can anyone give any tips for the ISC port please??

Many thanks in advance.

It sounds like only anonymous ftp users get restricted File System space
(via the chroot() mechanism), or have i missed something?... is it
possible to restrict a real user's access to only thier own login
directory heirarchy?

Thanks for your help!

If you only have some of the following, weird stuff like that will happen.

/dev/zero (use mknod to create this)
/usr/lib/ld.so
/usr/lib/libc.so.1.8
/usr/lib/libdl.so.1.0

Nope. There are 'guest' ftp users who do get restricted...

You could try using /./ in the path for their home dir to tell where
to chroot to... Here is a sample line from my /etc/passwd file where
I do this...

I am having a problem compiling WU-FTPD 2.4 on an Irix 5.3
system. The SGI entry is for Irix 4.0.5a. Is this the
latest WU-FTPD avaiable? Is information for Irix 5.3
available?

The error is in the number of parameters used with va_start.
Seems to be k&r vs ansi problem but I cannot find correct flags.

Thanks,

Brady

Hi all,

I have been using wu-ftpd at three different company sites around the
world with no problems, until now.

The config goes like this:

There is no anonymous access.
At each site we have an ftp login for our other sites:
eg. in Perth (Australia) we have an ftp_uk login for our uk office and they
have an ftp_perth for us here in Perth.

Each home area is located under /home/ftp/ftp_[location]/
When they login they are chrotted to the their home area and are opnly
allowed access to this area.

The Problem.
At one of our sites when ever I login it prompts me for my usaername and
then my password. When I give the password it bombs out and returns this
message:

331-(220 fire FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1) Sat Feb 18 13:40:36 CST 1995)
ready.)
331 Password required for ftp_perth.
Password:
530 Peer has closed connection
Login failed.

I have also seen it return a message that an "illegal seek" was attempted.
But this only comes up sometimes.

The syslog message on the machine I am trying to connect to returns the
following message:

Aug 1 08:39:10 fire ftpd[4516]: exiting on signal 11

and to just top it off when I type a close after being denied access I get
the following message:

501 Use "authorize" command first

The whole thing is setup on Linux 1.2.0, running on 486's

Can anyone shed some light on this. I would appreciate any help as I had
all this working and now for some reason this one site refuses to work
while the rest are happily transferring data between each other.

PS. I also have what seems to be "the recurring ls problem", that is some
systems don't get a result from ls where others ihave no problem at all.

...peter
