WUFTPers,

I am unable to get ftpd to log to xferlog correctly.  I am using
wuftp2.4 on a SPARC2 *and* a SPARC20, both running Solaris 2.4.  On
both machines, ftpd is executed, in /etc/inetd.conf, as "ftpd -a -d
-l".  In file /etc/syslog.conf, the following line exists to specify
the logging file:  "daemon.debug  /var/adm/xferlog".  Here's the
interesting part/problem...On the SPARC 2, all the info I want is
logged, ie who/what/when/where/etc, on the SPARC20, only uploads
and downloads are logged.  Both ftpaccess files contain the following
lines: "log commands anonymous" and "log transfers read,anonymous,guest
inbound,outbound".  Does anyonw have any idea why one machine works
and the other doesn't?  I'm stumped!

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

is explained and solved in the FAQ, but hasn't seen fit to send me said FAQ,
maybe someone else would be kind enough to send me either the FAQ or a pointer
to where I can find it.

Thanks!

There is none. Your problem is probably related to missing devices in your
~ftp. Check for /dev/zero /dev/tcp (that's for solaris, may be other are
needed for other OS).

I'm having troubles getting "ls -l" to work on our new ftp site. Here's an
example as anonymous:

ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
bin
etc
welcome.msg
pub
226 Transfer complete.
ftp> ls -l
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.

I have a copy of /bin/ls (mode 111) in ~ftp/bin (mode 555).

Both "ls" and "ls -l" work fine when I ftp in as myself.

Is this a common problem? I've tried all sorts of variations on things without
success...

Thanks,

-Harlan

I am setting up guest FTP for users to maintain their own web pages.
We can 'get' and 'put' but 'ls' does not work. Using BSDI 2.0.  Have
placed group and passwd in ~user/etc and ls in ~user/bin.

'ls' produces:
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connections for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.

Any ideas?

Are you trying to ftp through a filtering packet router or firewall?

The FTP server and the WWW server on the same machine.  The document that
makes reference to the ftp location is local.  The subdirectories that
the http page is calling are read only and under the ftp directory.

Using the Solaris FTPD everything works.

Any ideas?

Thanks...

Has anyone been able to get this combination to work?  Everytime that I
have the Browser connect up to wu-ftpd and start a transfer, I recieve
back the message:
Fatal Error: FTP-server replies: Entering Passive Mode

How do I fix this?

You also need a copy of your /etc/passwd & /etc/group in your ~ftp/etc
directory.  Do NOT use your REAL passwd & group files.  Take out all of
the lines except for the one for ftp and remove the password field for
that line.

I suspect that will solve your problem.

Where can I find a FAQ for usisng wu-ftp and HTTP under Solaris ?

I'm trying to connect to my anonymous ftp server using netscape. When the
machine runs Sunos 4.1.x, I haven't get any problem. But when the machine is
under Solaris 2.4, the ftp server replies an error : "Reason: FTP-server
replies: Can't open passive connection".

How can I fix it ?

For users on a Windows platform, this problem can often be fixed by setting
the MTU (Maximum Transfer Unit) in their IP stack/driver to 576.

Apparently, the default is too large for certain situations.   I don't know
enough about Windows to explain why this is true.

Hello !

I posted the following message 2 weeks ago and did not receive any answer.
So I try again !
If people had the same kind of problem with other OS than OSF 3.2, their
advices are also welcome.

----- begin of former message --------

I just installed the WU-FTPD 2.4 server on a Dec Alpha / OSF 3.2. It works
fine but I have a problem with the 'autogroup' command : I cannot make files
or sub directories readable only by anonymous users of any specific class.
On the contrary, all users can read and get any file, whatever the group and
class they (user and file) belong to.

I checked the following points :
- the ftpaccess file is read by the server (the message and limit commands
it contains are correctly processed),
- the classes are correctly assigned to the users (which was checked with a
class-limited login message),
- the ls -al command produces correct results (names and not figures, and
groups corresponding to those defined in the group file and 'autogroup'
command).

Could somebody help me ?

Many thanks.

[this is only peripherally related to wu-ftpd and i have to hope that
someone on this list has had to something similar before and can point
me in the right direction]


After much beating of chest and pulling of hair (and possibly additional
graying of same), I gave up on getting the BSDI shared-lib version of ls
working under the ftpaccess/group scenario. (yeah, yeah, I went back and
read over a month's worth of wu-ftpd email, including the how-to thingie,
AND the ORA Managing Internet Services and could not, would not get ls
working. As much as I *love* tinkering with Unix I don't have the time
on this particular project).

Soooo, I got the GNU version of ls, compiled/linked it statically with gcc,
slapped it into the ~/bin directory of my choice and wowie-zowie, I got
a directory listing under ftpd on the first try.

Unfortunately (you knew this was coming, right?), all the owner/groups
show up as numbers (never mind that passwd and group files are in the
right place with the correct entries) AND all the timestamps on the files
show up in GMT instead of PDT. ARGH! The GNU ls does not show these symptoms
under a Unix shell. What did I do wrong!? I read the README that came
with the fileutils distribution but not a word is mentioned about TZ
issues under BSDI.

HELP! I'm soooo close, I can taste it :-)

advTHANKSance,

Subject: Why doesn't "dir" work ?
X-Mailer: E-Mail 1.7
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have just installed wu-ftpd, everything works fine except "dir"
will not list files/directories, its output is nothing. "ls" works fine.
How can I get "dir" to work ?

Also, when I use Compuserve (WinCIM) to ftp to this site, it will not
list any of the directories. I can specify the directory in the startup
window and get files, but can not move to any other directories unless I
quit and re-enter. Has anyone ran into this problem before ? Is it related
to dir not working ?

Finally, I tried using "log commands" from "ftpaccess" but could not
get that to work either. I was hoping to use that to see what compuserve
was using to get a directory listing. Any ideas on why log commands will
not work ?

Thanks,
Brian

In the book Managing INTERNET Information Service on pages 62-63
there is a description of how to use sublogins. Sublogins are pass-
word-protected identities that anonymous users can assume to gain
access to retricted parts of thr FTP archive.

I have tried to use sublogin on Version wu-2.4. But it is not
working. I get the following error when I try:

ftp> user hamproj
530 Can't change user from guest login.
Login failed.

Is it not possible to use sublogin in the WU-ftp-server?

Subject: A different kind of logging question...
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have got logging working - BUT it's not behaving the way that I thought it
should.  I was under the impression that starting wu-ftpd with the -i and -o
parameters would generate a listing of uploads and downloads from the system in
a relatively straight forward fashion (as shown in Managing Internet Information
Service - O'Reilly p 86).  I am only able to get extended logging (SIZE, RETR,
CWD, LIST, etc).

I have tried messing with these settings:

log commands anonymous
log transfer anonymous inbound,outbound

in /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess

I can get "FTP session closed" as the only logging when *not* using the log
commands option, or full logging as described above when command logging is
enabled.  Obvously with full command logging I'm growing some Texas-size log
files and then have to hunt to find incoming files in the resulting mess.

Any clue as to what I'm missing?  I'm guessing that it is an incorrect entry in
the syslog.conf file (currently "daemon.debug        /var/adm/xferlog") but it
doesn't seem to log w/o .debug.  What would the correct entry be?

Solaris 2.4 on Sparc/LX if it matters...

The xferlog is written directly by wu-ftpd; it is not a syslog file.  ou
need to remove this from syslog.conf.  There is other info that can be
syslog'd, but I forget what the entry is.

The xferlog file is specified in ~src/pathnames.h.  See if removing the
xferlog file from syslog.conf makes a difference.

.. or point it to /dev/null
I think it needs the definition, so redirecting to /dev/null would
keep it happy.

Subject: Where could i get GNU 'ls'
Content-Type: text
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL21-h4]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I installed wu-ftpd-2.4, but ls -l does not work.
Dari L. Chapman said that he has GNU ls.
Where can I get GNU 'ls' ?

I tried ldd and copied lib*.so.* to ~/ftp/usr/lib.
But the ls still does not work.
After copying the libraries, what should I do to run the ls ?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hello,

The wu-ftpd-2.4 INSTALL references version 2.3.3 for some include
modifications for use with gcc, but I don't see 2.3.3 on wuarchive.

Can someone advise or point me?

Thanks,

Don't use anything less than gcc 2.7.x.  Generally
you should use the current and official release of the complers
(et.al.) and ignore README's that mention older release problems
(unless the problem still exists - but in this case it doesn't).

I tried this under BSDI 2.0.1, and created both a ~ftp/lib and ~ftp/shlib
directory with the only shlisted lib for ls (libc_s.2.0) in both and
still ls would not work under ftpd (for groupname access accounts).

If anyone out there has done this kind of thing under BSDI 2.0, could
you please contact me? I'm still having problems getting the statically
built gnu ls to work correctly as weel, even after turning off PROCTITLE and
rebuilding wu-ftpd )-: In the meantime, I will have to seriously consider
the suggestion of hacking ls to debug and generate a log file.

PS Thanks to all the private replies to my earlier post!

Cheers,
..dlc...

I'm running wu-2.4(1) on a SUN platform. I'm having problems getting
the file permissions, as specified in ftpaccess to take effect.
They seemed to have worked for awhile, then stopped.

I'm trying to get file permissions of 644 and always seem to end
up with 664 now.

Is there a newer (beta) version of wu-ftpd avialable beyond 2.4?

Check the value of CMASK in ~src/ftpd.c.  Is it set to 002 by chance?

For the latest beta version:

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

This directory may not show you its contents, but just get the file
anyway.

For wu-ftpd, sublogins refers to the 'autogroup' and/or the 'site group'
mechanisms that are described in that book starting on page 80.

This version works great, but there are three gotchas in the installation:

       1) the ftpaccess file is no longer read by default; you must specify the '-a'
option on the ftpd command line, or change the default in the code.

       2) There are some confusing #ifdefs in "pathnames.h" for the "ftpaccess"
file, etc., and you have to be careful to know which one you will get (or need
to modify) as a result of the #defines in "config.h".

       3) The Makefile (at least for Solaris 2.x) does not have sufficient
dependencies listed for "pathnames.h" and "config.h", so if you change either
of these files and re-'make' your changes will not take effect!!

Good luck!

It is a known bug (or feature). I have posted it several times. No patch
available yet. But there is a workaround:

Put back the public read permission on ~ftp/incoming

> They seemed to have worked for awhile, then stopped.

With permission 1777 on ~ftp/incoming it should work. It stoped
working when the permission changed to 1733.

I had same problem: 664 + ftp.bin ;-)

Hello,


I've compiled the latest (fcs) wu-ftpd and gotten things in place
but have the following error trying to 'ls' as anonymous:

425 Cannot create data socket ( 0.0.0.0,20 )

When attempting 'ls' on ~ftp/bin (--r--r--r) I simply get
"No files found", which leads me to believe that 'ls' is
actually working up to a point.

I have also created ~ftp/dev/zero and ~ftp/usr/lib/<blah> to ensure
'ls' has what it needs to work, but this made no difference.

Any ideas, RTM's appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi everyone,

I fixed by myself my problem with the problems I had to get ftpd to work
correctly under Linux but I don't know if I did well. Here is what I did:

palanthas:/usr/installed/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5/src$ diff ftpd.c
ftpd.c.orig
1413c1413
<             if (S_ISREG(st.st_mode) != 0 && S_ISDIR(st.st_mode) != 0) {
---
>             if (S_ISREG(st.st_mode) != 0 && S_ISDIR(st.st_mode) == 0) {
1417c1417
<             if ((cptr->types & T_ASCII) != 0 && deny_badasciixfer(550, ""))
---
>             if ((cptr->types & T_ASCII) == 0 && deny_badasciixfer(550, ""))

Since I am no great C programmer (yet!:) ), I don't know if those changes
are valid or could cause problems... Below is the mail I sent which had
the description of the problem in it. I am using wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5
from academ but wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-4 showed the same kind of problems
under linux (it worked fine under Solaris 2.4).

Yes, it is.

It's still that way in this version. I suggest this be changed, as it is a
"misfeature" :-) IMHO.

I think theres an un-documented command line switch for this, try:
       ftpd -u 022 [<other_options>] in inetd.conf

It would be nice if the ftpaccess config supported (somehow) setting
up umasks based on groups, especially considering any guestgroups.

Subject: 'ls' for guestgroup?
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I've set up a guestgroup, which works okay except that guest
users don't get any output when they do an 'ls'.  Real users
can list files fine, though.

I'm running a Debian pre-built wu-ftpd version wu-2.4(4) on
Linux 1.2.1.

I'd appreciate any tips or pointers to more documentation
on guestgroup.  Thanks!

Here's a sample session:

220 nanos1 FTP server (Version wu-2.4(4) Wed Sep 13 09:31:11 MET DST 1995) ready.

Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> dir
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
226 Transfer complete.

Here's the contents of guest's directory (~ftp is set up
similarly, as well):

Here's the guestgroup line from ftpaccess:

Hi all,
       I have just received wu-ftpd 2.4 and installed it. I am having
problems setting up an incoming directory. The machine
it is running on us a Sparcstation 2 running 4.1.3 . It  is also
a DISKLESS machine (I think that is part of the problem). We have
all our disks on a central server. The symptoms are....
       Things appear to work fine for outgoing.
       I have set up the incoming directory to install files as
          root mode 600 as in the example (tried 'bin' as well
          but same problem)
       I can write as root into the directory (ie exported ok)
       When A file is 'put' into that directory it seems to work ok
               (ncftp and ftp both show it transfering)
       NcFTP /incoming ->put printcap
       printcap: 3218 bytes sent in 0.05 seconds, 69.73 K/s.

but the file, while existing and with the correct mode, is empty.

I get a message in the /var/adm/messages file of
Oct  9 08:26:16 kaka vmunix: NFS write error 13 on host huia
             fh 746 1 a0000 5fee5 52f2ea44 a0000 2 1e0a6aed

As I said above -- I can write in the directory and do everything
as root or bin but wuftpd doesn't seem to be able to.
All other parts seem to work ok.

Can someone shed some light on this ??

Thanks

should be owned by root and everywhere else seems to say make it owned by 'ftp'

ftpd chroot()s for guestgroups as it does for anonymous users. Thus, you
have to set up a guestgroup environment just like the one for aFTP.

This one doesn't seem to be statically linked from its size. You either
have to install a static binary or the corresponding shared library (and
ld.so, probably).

I need help with my wu-ftp site.

I'm having problems with zombie ftpd sessions that are not ever dying.
I've been forced to write a "zombie killer" script to keep the site
running.

Does anyone have any experience with this problem with wu-ftpd 2.4?

Thanks,

This is a known problem.  It has been apparantly fixed in the beta 5 version.

Actually, it does with the "upload" directive, ie:

upload  /rootdir      /dir1   yes     someowner    somegroup  0775 dirs
upload  /rootdir      /dir2   yes     someowner    somegroup  0664 dirs

The above will set the owner, group, and permissions. The last entry
can also be "nodirs" indicating if the user can create subdirectories
or not...

Or are you looking for something else?

..dlc...

PS has anyone set up guestgroups under BSDI 2.0.x using wu-ftpd v2.4.x??
If so, please send email -- I beginning to think I have found a but with
BSDI...

I'm trying to set up groups that will chroot to specific directories upon
login.

I think I've set them up OK but the new ftpd 2.4(2) doesn't even
recognize the 'site' command, and the 'guesr' users aren't recognized.

They are chrooted to an arbitrary place in the filesystem.

Do I need any passwd/group entries chrooted to the chrooted anonymous
ftp directory?

The new ftpd seems to work OK other than the group problems.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

jeff weiss

system passwd entry example :
mpls:x:81:15001:Minneapolis ftp user:/export/info/virtdoms/mpls/./www:/bin/false

ftpaccess entry:
guestgroup wolf,bloom,mpls

system group entry:
mpls:*:15001:mpls

And--I'm running a shadow file on passwd.

Hi everyone,

       I noticed a big difference in what is reported on two systems on
which I try to admin wu-ftpd. Basically, i'd like to have the Solaris 2.4

clearly). If anyone knows what is causing this, i'd like to hear it very
much.. :). Here is the output for "ftpwho" (Note: I have defined
SETPROCTITLE when I compiled it on the solaris machine.. ). Should I
upgrade to beta 5 on the Solaris machine? Thanks for reading this..

Solaris programs can't change their proctitle the way Linux programs can.
It's something in the operating system.

(I have been trying to get other programs to do the same.. gopherd and
sendmail. Same results).

Hello,
       How does one make a definition in the ftpconversions file
so when files with an extension of ".htm" are uploaded, the extension
is converted to ".html"?
       Would *greatly* appreciate any hints or suggestions :)

       Hi everyone on this list.. :) First, I want to thank publicly all
those who replied to my question about ftpwho not displaying things
properly under Solaris.. Now I know a little more what to do to fix this.

       I now have another question and I am sorry to ask this because I
think it has already been asked...: I have an "Incoming" directory on our
site in which files are uploaded. I want the files in the incoming
directory owned by one of our admins so that it's easier for him to
manage, however, this does not seem to work under Solaris 2.4 + wu-ftpd
2.4.2-beta4.

The related section inf my ftpaccess file reads:

# specify the upload directory information
upload  /roger/ftp  *             no
upload  /roger/ftp /pub/Linux/Incoming  yes     duc  stepadm 0600 dirs

This works very well on my Linux machine (all files uploaded there are
ownded by user:group) but on the Solaris machine files are always owned by
ftp:ftp whatever the real user and group that I specify in ftpaccess..  I
don't if there is something I am doing wrong.. if someone wouldn't mind
trying to help, I would surely apreciate it a lot and our admin as well...

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hello everyone,

I really need help!  I installed wu-ftpd 2.4.2 BETA 5 on my linux machine
(slackware 1.3.9.) over my old wu-ftpd 2.4.  Now, I am unable to make the
xferlog working!

Here the message from ckconfig:
=ABChecking _PATH_XFERLOG :: /var/adm/ftpd/xferlog
I can't find it ...
Don't worry, it will be created automatically by the server if you do
transfe logging.=BB

But the problem is that it does not create one!  Using a man ftpd, it said
that I had to use the =AB-i=BB option.  So I added it to my inetd.conf file.
Here is how it looks:

ftp   stream   tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/tcpd    /usr/sbin/wu.ftpd -i

After that I made a kill -HUP command, but it still does not work.  When I
was with the old version, the xferlog worked perfectly.

Is there someone that can help me? (If I did a silly mistake, don't worry I
will be severely punished :-)  )

:.htm: :.html:/bin/cat %s:T_REG|T_ASCII:O_COMPRESS:NOTHING

Now you can "get foo.html" instead of "get foo.htm". The FTP server must
offer /bin/cat, though.

Why the heck would you do that?

Subject: 2.4.2 Beta 5: questions/comments
X-Mid: <[email protected]>
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Greetings all.  I've been watching the list for a while now and have pretty
much kept my input to private mail.  Anyway, I have some general comments
and/or questions...

1) The 2.4.2-beta5 has been around for a while now.  Is there active work
  going on to actually create a release?

2) Has anyone created an FAQ with regards to this new strain of ftp server?

3) A fellow generated a very nice patch to distribute the transfer logs.
  My apologies for not remembering who.  Has there been a new release
  of that patch sans the race condition?

Now for more of a comment... HOBBIT apparently contributed patches to
make the server SKey aware.  While I think this is a terrific idea, I
am curious as to why something more generalized was not patched in that
would support SKey and various security tokens.  Three things come to
mind in this regard:

       a) Support to use the TIS auth server
       b) Support for RADIUS
       c) Support for TACACS+

Each of these has a reasonable programming interface for providing user
authentication.  I intend to implement "a" as well as either "b" or "c"
depending on which I'll have to support for other applications.

I have a couple of other enhancements I intend to implement in the near
future (assuming the funding goes through).  Allow me to take a moment
and explain what I have done, and where I think it should go.

A client of mine wanted to make available documents via FTP -- some are
to be public while others were to be for "members only" (if you will).
The easy thing to do was to make use of the "SITE GROUP" facility and
let members gain additional group access to get to private directories.
Well... since there were/are a large number of "members" and they needed
to accountable for their access as well as making it easy to halt access
upon membership termination I extended the "GROUP" concept and had them
create a seperate group per member, each with it's own password.  Simple
enough (again), but there is a nasty problem with "SITE GROUP" or more
precisely "SITE GPASS" in that the text is not just plain text over the
net, but is echoed back when typed.  So I pulled out my trusty keyboard
again and added what I now consider an ugly hack.  The user logs in
anonymously as in all other cases, but when they want to "increase" their
privledge they issue the "ACCT" command with a specific account code. Given
the correct (and universal) account code, they are notified to issue a new
"USER" command, but this time using their "GROUP" id.  At this point they
are prompted for their group password with the standard non-echo'ing prompt
and all is well.  This has been in operation for a couple years now and
hindsight points out several flaws and some much needed features.

There are two particularly bad side effects from all of this.  The first is
that users can't seem to follow instructions are are constantly trying to
use their group/member id as the login id.  The second and much more
annoying is that many FTP clients do not seem to support things like QUOTE
or are so fixed that you can't issue commands.  Netcruiser comes to mind.
The other obvious miss is that web browsers can't deal with the extra
interaction.

Now is where I would appreciate some feedback.  Given some hindsight, I
think what I *should* have done is allowed the "normal" login trigger
not just anonymous user access, but access with extended privledge based
on the id given to gain access.  More simply stated, if the user logs
in as "ftp" and gives something worthwhile as a password everything is
normal.  Now if they prefix their login id with a '+' for example, the
server would assume anonymous access in the "normal" mode, but use the
characters after the '+' as a key into the group access file and the
password required would be.... [drum roll please] the GPASS.

Before you ask, let me answer the most common question I've heard when
I mentioned this thing two years ago.

       Q: Why not just have seperate ftp guest accounts?
       A: The folks maintaining the "member" accounts don't have
          the access to muck with the password file -- and for
          good reason.  As a matter of fact, they update it via
          an E-mail interface.

The one feature that would be particularly useful is the ability to be
added to several groups rather than just one.  This is very applicable
to the "standard" mode as well.

Sooo.... after such a long winded post, I'd be glad to continue discussion
on any of the things I have mentioned.  If I've overlooked something real
obvious, feel free to knock me over the head with it... It is quite possible
I have just made a typo or am not conveying my thoughts very well.

Hi All,

Has anybody has problem with reel users accessing files whose belong to
their non-principal groups?

ie:
       user "aaa" belong to the primary group "groupa" as well as "groupb" and
       "groupc".

       When ftping in as a reel user, "aaa" can access "groupa" files but
       has not the permission to access  files belonging to "groupb" and
       "groupc".

       "aaa" can access "groupb" and "groupc" files when loging in.

We run wuftp (2.4.2) on AIX 3.2.5.
Any response will be much appeciated.

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


This is a rather ugly patch for a problem we are having on our SunOS
machines (2.4.2-b5, but it's been present on all of them)).  If a client
goes away without closing the connection,(i.e. they hang up their modem)
the daemon never dies.

So, this fixes the problem, just not elegantly.  I've worried that there
might be a performance hit, but it doesn't seem to have made a
significant difference.  We've been running this for a couple weeks with
no problems.

it does create a file 'teleport.c' which should be renamed to something
else, if that makes you happy.

So, anyway, here it is.

Hello

I have just installed 2.4(1) and it works OK but I see mention of
patched versions.  These patches don't seem to be available on
wuarchive.wustl.edu.  Are the patches, then, official ?  Are they
needed for reasons of security or facility and, if yes, where do
I get them ?

Thanks

Hi.

I am trying (desperately!!) to get going with wu-ftpd 2.4 with the
patches for virtual ftpd (I got the source that Ken German posted
ftp.dgii.com:/systems/bsdi/networking/vwu-ftpd-2.4.BSDI.tar.gz).

I have edited src/pathnames.h to reflect my system (BSDI 2.0.1).
Tried this and only got errors.  I then replaced
/usr/include/arpa/ftpd.h with src/ftpd.h.  Still no good.

I remember some people on this list mentioning problems with ftpshut
and ftpcount, but did not keep the messages (mea culpa!).
Bassically, it seems that the links cannot be made.  Here are the
results of the build command:

/build bsd
make args are :
make opts are :

I think ~ftp/pub, ~ftp/pub/Linux also need public read permission.

I had the problem with Linux. If no public read permission, all files
owned by ftp.bin and 664. Put back the public read permission, owner
and permission are OK.

I did a "chmod +r" on ~ftp/pub/Linux/Incoming to re-establish read
permissions on the incoming dir (all other dirs have read permission) and
I still get files owned by ftp:ftp . I even tried to have the files owned
by root:daemon (who is in ~ftp/etc/passwd and ~ftp/etc/group) by specifing
it in the "upload" line in ftpaccess because i thought it could be a
shadow password problem but it did not work. I have tried everything I
could think of. Is there anyone else using Solaris 2.4 + wu-ftpd and who
has an "incoming" dir with the ability to change the owner of uploaded
files w/o problems? Thanks a lot for reading this.. :)

I don't use the -a option but the ftpaccess file is being used. At least
under old Sunos (pre-solaris) this seems to be the default. This is merely
an observation. I am quite happy that it worked this way for me.

First, thanks to Yamming for his answers, sorry that I have to keep on
with that thread but we need to get this running.. :(

Yes, the is what they are currently set to.

I tried this but it still would not work...

On the other side, things are running well on the Linux machine but that
machine has beta 5 and the Sun machine has beta 4. I don't know if this
could make a difference but I will try to install it anyway today.. :) I
just hope it _is_ going to work better..

Hey Vincent:

Thanks for the tip, I got it to work.  The solution was, of course,
rather simplistic:  I simply made a copy of the library (libregex.a)
in the /usr/lib directory (where the other libraries for BSDI are
located).  libregex.a was originally found in the src directory for
wu-ftpd.

So wu-ftpd compiled without, it seems, any problems.  I shall now try
and set it up correctly.  Don't be surprised if you find more
questions comming from me on this list ;-)

Hello people at wu-ftpd list,

I am new to this list so I beg your pardon if what I am asking it has
been asked many other times. I hope this is the place to ask about it as
I did not find an answer in many other places I tried.

Let me introduce myself first. I am one of the two information systems
worker at RedIRIS, the Spanish Academic and Research network. I am also
currently studing computer science at university.

I am using wu-ftpd 2.4 for the anonymous ftp's of my organization. In
the ftp files hierarchy there are many symbolic links of directories. I
would like users conecting through an ftp client to get the same
behaviour as when using bash, i.e. if you cd into a symlink to a
directory and then up again (cd ..), you return to the same point you
were and not to the parent of the real dir the symlink is pointing to. I
hope the explanation is clear.

It seems to me that some ftp servers running wu-ftpd behave like that,
but I did obtain no answer when asking their managers.

Another thing I would like to ask is about the current patch level of
wu-ftpd-2.4 and where to get the beta 2.4.2 and how reliable it is. I do
not get to understand the patch numbers. I connect to some servers that
display wu-ftpd 2.4(39) or any other number, but any wu-ftpd I download
has the patch number fixed to 1, and if I apply the pathes I found in
some ftp's it creates a shell script "newvers.h" that lets you increase
by 1 the patch number found in the "edit" file.

I would appreciate a lot anyone telling me about these things or where
to find information, as well as the most reliable place to get the last
releases of wu-ftpd.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
--

Hello,

I am sorry, if this isn't the right place to ask, but I didn't found
an email address for reporting problems in the wu-ftpd docs.

We are using wu-ftpd on a sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4 machine. We had no
problems for a long time.


In the last 3 days, however, there appeared a strange behaviour 2 times:
The server suddenly refuses users to login with  a message "Access
denied" immediately after the login name was entered. In one case I
could login at one moment and couldn't one minute later.

I found nothing special in the config files (ftpaccess added below).
The only thing I changed in the last days: The machine was moved to
another ethernet ring.


Does anyone have an idea, what could be wrong?


Thanks in advance,

Jochen

Sounds like /etc/shells problem. What is the shell of the user who
is refused by the FTP server? Is it in /etc/shells? It could be that
the user change its shell which is not in /etc/shells.

I am not a wu-ftpd expert at all but could it be that the "shutdown" line
in your ftpaccess file is pointing to a file that exists already? If you
have "shutdown /etc/shutmsg" in your ftpaccess file and file /etc/shutmsg
already exists, then wu-ftpd will exhibit the said behaviour.

Subject: nice patch
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


1) I just have installed the "teleport" patch for wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-5.

Even if the author said:
> So, this fixes the problem, just not elegantly.  I've worried that there
> might be a performance hit, but it doesn't seem to have made a
> significant difference.  We've been running this for a couple weeks with
> no problems.

I aggree, for me it's a nice patch because if a user (client end) type a ^Z during
a transfer if a command is  aborted for any reason (a modem hang for example)
our ftp server had a process running with no timeout and the number of available
users is bad.

( >>> You have to add by hand the teleport.c teleport.o entries in the src/Makefile)

May be is it possible to use SO_KEEPALIVE option for the socket ?

2) Another report I can do also is for Ultrix 4.3 :

- inetd.cnf allow only up to 5 five arguments passed to the programs
  (including the command name !!! --> (see man inetd.conf(5))

so dont have a line like this in your inetd.conf:
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  /usr/local/etc/ftpd     ftpd -l -L -i -o -d -a -t300

I have recompiled ftpd with -i -o -l -L options set
(see comment about it in ftpd.c)

Enjoy wu-ftpd

P.S.: Sorry for my \english\

Instead of the giant multi-arg'd line in inetd.conf above, you could do
the same thing without mucking with the source code by using this line:

ftp stream tcp nowait /usr/local/etc/ftpd ftpd -lLioda -t300

Presto! only three arguments (including the base name).

Subject: restricting anonymous ftp
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


Hi,

  I was wondering if it is possible to restrict users of our anonymous
ftp server to only logins from our local domain.  I would like to use
our anonymous ftp service only for access through our web server and I
would like to restrict access to only our local web server, not external
addresses.  Is this possible?  Should I be doing this another way?  Should I
maybe be attempting to restrict certain directories in my anonymous ftp
server from external access instead of my entire server?

  Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Jane

I've put wu-ftpd up on about 12 different machines, and I'm having
problems with "ls -l" command when an anon user logs in. "ls" works
fine.  The problems are on Dec alphas.  The chroot command is no longer
supposed to give access to actual bin dir so I have to copy ls over to
the ~ftp/bin directory. (odd thing is if I don't "ls" still works).  The
problem is "ls" is dynamically compiled and depends on other librarys.
The Decs don't have a "ldd" command so I can't find them like I did on
the Sun.  If anyone knows which other files I need please let me know (I
copied the entire lib directory over and that didn't work) or if I'm
doing something else wrong please let me know.

                               Thanx,

Subject: Help, not timing out connections
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.3 PL11]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have installed wu-ftp, and have a small problem.
It is not timing out users at all. I have ftp processes hanging around
for days before I kill them manually, and of course this causes the
maximum limit of anonymous ftp's to be reached often.

Here's the version I am running:
220 carver FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1) Fri Oct 6 16:01:41 PDT 1995) ready

The system is a Sparc running SunOS 4.1.3C

Here is a line from ps -aux
USER       PID %CPU %MEM   SZ  RSS TT STAT START  TIME COMMAND
ftp      26282  0.0  0.0  804    0 ?  IW   16:43   0:00 -netcom7.netcom.com: ano
ftp      24469  0.0  0.0  800    0 ?  IW   07:59   0:00 -dialin-124.wustl.edu: a

As you can see, the processes never use any time, which I assume is why they
never time out.

Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks

Hmmm.. restricting access to only local users is not that hard. But the
connection with the webserver is somewhat vague to me.

Anyway, you could set up something like :

class   local   real,anonymous          *.local.domain
class   outside real,anonymous          *

limit   local           10      Any
limit   outside         0       Any

Try using the 'ls' binary from /sbin/ls, not /usr/bin/ls. The former
should be statically linked and not require *any* libraries. If file * in
the ~ftp/bin shows up any dynamically linked executables you are going to
have headaches.

As a starting point go to ftp://ftp.livingston.com/  Read their white paper
on it and then go get the internet drafts it talks about.  Merit also has
a sample implementation, but I don't have the URL handy.  Probably under
their ftp area somewhere... :-)

ls -l works ok on my site (a DEC AlphaStation 4/233 / OSF3.2) with the
following setup :
- copy the static version of ls (/sbin/ls) and not the dynamic one (/usr/bin) in
~ftp/bin. That ls program size is about 400 kb, not 40 kb.
-copy the passwd and group files, and 'sia' subdirectory, in the ~ftp/etc
directory.
- set the permissions on all these files and directories according to the
WU-FTPD man and install' documents.

By the way, I have a problem with the autogroup command (for which I sent a
message twice in the last month without reply). Does anybody know anything
about it ?

I was doing a routine once over of our ftp server and was shocked to find
that I could 'cd' out of a guest account to its parent directory and from
there to any other directory in the tree!. I'm quite certain that
previously when I logged into one of these accounts, and did a

       cd ..

it left me right where I was instead of moving me up a level. Also, if I do a

       pwd

it gives me the complete pathname from root on down (e.g.,
/home/ftpusers/foo) rather than the pseudo root. It looks to me that the
'chroot' isn't taking place.

The relevant settings in 'ftpaccess' are:

class       foo     guest    NNN.MMM.NNN.MMM
guestgroup  foo
limit       foo     1        Any    /usr/local/etc/toomany.msg
upload      /home/ftpusers/foo/incoming /incoming yes test ftp 0600

Is something broken or am I hallucinating?

Thanks,

Dennis

You'll need force a chroot on login by futzing with the /etc/passwd file
(the real one) like this:


1. Do the /etc hacks.  Create Mort's entry in /etc/passwd and add the
  /etc/group entry.  (Or adduser or whatever you use.)  Add the
  entries to /etc/ftpaccess.

/etc/passwd:
mort:*:403:400:Mortimer Snerd:/home/web/mort/./:/etc/ftponly
                                           ^^^
  The /./ sequence determines where the chroot() is done to.  If you
  want the chroot() done to the web directory and a chdir() to mort,
  it would look like this:

mort:*:403:400:Mortimer Snerd:/home/web/./mort/:/etc/ftponly
                                      ^^^

  --------> (make sure "/etc/ftponly" is in /etc/shells.)

Hi, thanks from your help I solved the problem with xferlog :-)

Now I have another one:

I want to give restricted access to the user guest1

Here is how it looks on the /etc/passwd file:
guest1:password:1157:100:Guest Account:/home/ftp/pub//./guest1:/etc/ftponly

I wrote down "/etc/ftponly" in my /etc/shells

The problem is that when I do a ftp with guest1, it lists the full root:
/home/ftp/pub/guest1.  But, if the chroot would work, I would see /guest1
right?

Do I have to add something in my /etc/group file?  Do I have to add
something in my ftpaccess file?

I followed the instruction from the previous message in this mailing-list
from "Darci Chapman <[email protected]>" where the subject was
"Re: Help! Is something broken?"

Thanks Darci, at least I am more advanced than before!

Can someone help me?

The unix group that guest1 is a member of needs to have an entry in the
ftpaccess file like:

guestgroup      ftpguests

(this works if /etc/group has a ftpguests entry)

It is being treated as a guest user that causes the ftpd to perform chroot().

Greetings, all.

I have successfully set up guest groups (barring two bugs that I can
live with for now :-) but have run across a minor stumbling block. I
have ftpaccess set up like this:

# specify the upload directory information
upload  /toplevel      *            no
upload  /toplevel      /dir1/*      yes     owner    group  0775 dirs
upload  /toplevel      /dir2/*      yes     owner    group  0664 dirs

Everything works as expected EXCEPT that directories created with mkdir
have 755 permision and are owned by the "user" and not by "owner". I
would really prefer that directories be owned by "owner" and created with
group write permission...

This is happening under bsdi 2.0.x -- any takers?

Cheers,
..dlc...

You need to set up the users' entries in /etc/passwd so that wu-ftpd does
the chroot() properly. For example:

joeguest::410:121::/ftphome/./joeguest:/etc/ftponly

and make sure that the gid corresponds with the entry in /etc/group that
is being guestgroup'ed in the ftpaccess file. Also make sure the shell is
in /etc/shell. Note: many have problems getting this to work properly. I
had trouble until I created the directories mentioned in some dox
somewhere (sorry, don't remember where): basically
~ftp/{etc,usr,bin,usr/bin,lib,dev}. I created ~ftp/dev/zero, compiled GNU
ls statically and put it in ~ftp/bin and ~ftp/usr/bin, and made sure
~ftp/etc/passwd existed with just root and ftp in it.

Yeah, this bug has been known for long and was said to be fixed in the
2.4.2-beta5 version. Im running the beta5 on AIX 4.1.2 and must say the bug
is still fine.

I have the same wish!!  However theres not much that can be done without
changing code.  The quickest hack I can think of is to change the UMASK define.

Does anyone have the time to implement this feature?

You can't see the directory contents, but get the file anyway.

Hi, we noticed that the WUArchive ftp server provides
support for the REST command in STREAM mode.

RFC's 959 and 1123 describe Restart as requiring Block
or Compressed mode.  Is there another RFC or draft that
describes the method that you used, or did you simply
implement it in STREAM mode for your own purposes ?

I'm not trying to play compliance police, :-)
We are simply trying to better understand existing practice
for the feature before we implement it ourselves.

I saw a message just this morning, stating that sending a message to
[email protected], with "UNSUBSCRIBE WU-FTPD" as the SUBJECT and
the BODY of the message works.

Unfortunately, I did not save that message, so I'm not sure whether
that message said "wunet" or "wugate". I hope that one or the other
works so that the current flurry of unsubscribes will abate!

In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>; from "[email protected]" at Oct 15, 95 8:01 am
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have compiled and installed 2.4.2 b6 on Linux 1.2.13 with Virtual domain.

No problem to compile and install. Two bugs are observed:

1. Under virtual server, keyword "upload" does not work. Anonymous user
  can upload anywhere if the dir permission allowing write. However, on the
  real server, "upload" works as expected.

2. The uploaded file's ownership is still incorrect but the permission is OK.
  I got error message:
550 fchown: Operation not permitted
  That is because Linux disallows regular user to do chown().
The Fix: delete line 1793 in ftpd.c (for Linux, I am not sure for other OS).

I found the real reason: the fs does not allow chown. The code in ftpd.c
is correct.

The above two lines are completely wrong. My apologies.

Your problem looks like that FTP users upload files on an NFS mounted fs,
which is not given root privilege (i.e. using root_squash in /etc/exports).
The owner/permission problem was on beta 4. I think beta 5 has already fixed
it. Beta 6 has surely fixed it. I just tested it.

hello,

pardon if this is a stupid question, but i just installed the beta 6
version, and it is seemingly not reading the ftpaccess file.  when
logging in as anonymous it doesn't require anything for an e-mail
address, even though i have it set to enforce, and it doesn't print the
welcome.msg file when logging in.  i was using an older version of wu-ftp
and everything worked ok, so it could be that i need to change something,
but i don't have a clue.  any help would be appreciated.

thanks,

-bryan

How do you call ftpd from your /etc/inetd.conf? I think, with Beta 5, you
had to specify you wanted to use an ftpaccess file by having inetd call
"ftpd -a" and not simpy "ftpd". I don't know if it's still the same in
beta 6 but you could give it a try.

Hmm, I am running wu-ftpd-2.4 on AIX 3.2.5 and am NOT having this
problem.  I was until I examined the source code ad realized that if
you specify the "-t" option then you MUST follow it immediately with
the numeric timeout, with NO SPACE between the "-t" and the number,
thus:

   ftpd -lio -t1800

If you have "-t 1800" then ftpd will detect the "1800" as an
unrecognized option and will not associate it with the preceding "-t".

I just started using wu-ftpd 2.4 and it seems to work as advertised
except that I can not see any way to restrict a class to read only.
Have I missed something, I would think this would be highly desirable?

Hi,
 Those are the diffs to compile wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta6 on Irix 5.x.
I'm not sure, but I think I'm missing utmpx.h in logwtmp.c, though it works.
if it doesn't we might have to include testing for "defined(__sgi)" after the
"ifdef SVR4".

Anyway, please include support for Irix 5.x in the next release.

Looks like directories are not set to the uid/gid given above -- they are
simply created and left unchanged.  The above seems to be only for
files.  Sounds like hack time, to me.

Try the following instead:

upload  /toplevel      *            no
upload  /toplevel      /dir1        yes     owner    group  0775 dirs
upload  /toplevel      /dir2        yes     owner    group  0664 dirs

I experienced a similar problem that seemed to be induced by the trailing
slash and the wildcard.

Yea :-( It appears to be _very, very_ strange.

One good reason why computers can do more work than people is that they

Hello Everyone,

Last week I send a message asking if someone knew how to make the ftp
behave as a bash when traversing symlinks. Not really doing the chdir
but keeping somehow the value of the current dir.

The thing is that if you have a directory /mirror/linux and a symbolic
link to that one in /pub/os/linux. Being in /pub/os and doing a 'cd
linux' and then a 'cd ..' leaves you in /mirror instead of /pub/os. I
think some sites achieve this behaviour but I have not idea ( after
trying everything it came to my mind ) of how to do it.

I would appreciate a lot anyone giving me any hint of how to do it or
where to find more information about it.

Thanks in advance,

Hi All,

Further to my recent posting, I've tried this in my ftpaccess file, I added the local domain entry faxil.leeds.ac.uk to test the setup.

It doesnt seem to work any ideas ?

class   carman  anonymous   philabs.philips.com
class   helios  anonymous   *.polaroid.com
class   paco    anonymous   faxil.leeds.ac.uk

# Autogroup defines classes i.e.carman, helios and setegid()
# to relevant group i.e philips, helios

autogroup   philips     carman
autogroup   polaroid    helios
autogroup   philips     paco

ls -la of /export/ftp/pub

drwxrwxrwx   5 ftp      other        512 Oct 16 17:20 .
dr-xr-xr-x   8 bin      ftp          512 Oct 17 09:09 ..
drwxr-x---   3 root     philips      512 Oct 17 08:36 carman
drwxr-x---   4 root     polaroid     512 Oct 17 08:37 helios
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     other        512 Oct 16 17:20 sun

Therfore if a login as anonymous from faxil.leeds.ac.uk, it should autogroup me to philips, therfore I should be able to cd to /pub/carman.

Am I right in thinking this.


Thanks in advance

Michael CLarkson

Hi All,

I apoligise in advance if what I am asking is trivial or covered in some documentation ( by the way a source of code wu-ftpd documentation would be appreciated, is there a good HOW_TO doc somewhere ?)

Anyway I wish to setup up two private directories, say X and Y, i want a user Y to be able to access and upload to dir Y, but not be able to access or list dir X, and vice versa.

What is the most preferable and secure way of achieving this ?

The system is running Solaris 2.4 for X86.

Thanks in advance

I did this on my local workstation (linux 1.3.32 + wu-ftpd 2.4.2b5 soon
b6. :) ) by exporting through NFS /dose/images and then re-mounting by under
/home/ftp/pub/images. It works fine, you could try that.

make sure you are running nfsd and mountd and put this in your /etc/exports:

/mirror/linux   localhost(ro)

then put this in your /etc/fstab (if it's what your OS use):

localhost:/mirror/linux /home/ftp/pub/os/linux

(this assumes dir /home/ftp/pub/os/linux already exists).

Subject: ftp access
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Helo.

I use Version wu-2.4(8) on a SunOS 4.1.3_U1. I have a question about
class in the ftpaccess file, I hope you could give me an advice
about.

I define the two classes external and internal. The external one is
determined by one hostname/ipadress on my network. The internal one is
determined by all other hosts on my network.

Today the entries in ftpaccess looks like this:

class   external        anonymous,guest 130.226.64.30
class   internal        anonymous,guest,real 130.226.65.* 130.226.66.* 130.226.67.*
class   internal        anonymous,guest,real 130.226.64.1* 130.226.64.2* 130.226.64.4* 130.226.64.5* 130.226.64.6* 130.226.64.7* 130.226.64.8* 130.226.64.9*
class   internal        anonymous,guest,real 130.226.64.31 130.226.64.32 130.226.64.33 130.226.64.34 130.226.64.35 130.226.64.36 130.226.64.37 130.226.64.38 130.226.64.39

Is it possible somehow define the internal one as * except
130.226.64.30? That would make ftpaccess much more readable and
understandable.

Thanks a lot for your help,
Yours,

This is what I did for Solaris 2.3

You'll need to set up /etc/passwd or NIS+ passwd entries for these accounts.
How this is done is critical. Here's an examples:
from a NIS+ entry;
bloom:94edfDBU57&6:2502:15002:Bloomington ftp
user:/export/US/virt/./stick/www:/bin/false:9164:0:::::

I.E., make sure a nonfunctional user shell is specificed in the passwd
entry as well as /etc/shells.

Create the path similar to above, where stick/www is where the ftp user
is dumped when they ftp in, and "virt" is where they are chrooted.
Note the "/./"; you need this.

Create appropriate bin lib and etc directories at the chroot level per
standard documentation. Do an 'ldd' on binaries like 'ls' to make sure
you get all needed libraries.

Create /etc/group entries for X and Y such as
guests:*:200:X,Y,Z

and guids for X,Y, and Z.

And place the entry :"guestgroup guests"  into your ftpaccess file.

Make certain that owner/group permissions are set properly on the
X and Y directories and go for it.

Others may point out slightly better ways to do it, but based on help I
got from the net this is what I set up--and it works.

It's a great way to allow people to administer web-only accounts.

Subject: WUFTP-NEWBIE in NEED
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Pardon my newbie-ness but I really need some direction.

I'm setting up a server on a Sparc2 running SunOS 4.1.4 and
using gcc 2.3.3. (wuftp version 2.4)

Everything seemed to compile OK, BUT.. when I try to use
the server - I can't get past the "Connected to hostname"
prompt, it LOCKS up.

I DID run the "make install-fixincludes" when I installed the
gcc, but there still seems to be a problem.

QUESTIONS
Is there a FAQ covering this problem somewhere? Where?
Is there a trouble-shooting paper somewhere? Where?
Is the server compatible with SunOS 4.1.4?
What is the "most stable" Sun operating system configuration?
(ie. SunOS4.1.x, Solaris 2.x, etc.)

Thanks in advance for any advice to a WUFTP-NEWBIE in need. :-(

Subject: chroot not working on NIS client...
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


I don't know if this has anything to do with NIS or not, but...

Our local network consists of SPARCstations all running Solaris 2.3, operating
under NIS (not NIS+).

Several weeks ago, on my NIS server, I set up a guest group consisting of
one account, for test purposes.  After some help from this mailing list,
I got it working very satisfactory.  The test account is of group "customer"
in our /etc/group files and NIS, and in the ftpaccess file, I have the line
"guestgroup customer", which translates the customer group into the guest
group.

Now, I am trying to do the same thing on a different machine for our customers.
This new machine is an NIS client.  I have set things up exactly (I think)
the same way, yet when I ftp in as the guest account, the ftpd treats me like
I am a real user, thus giving me access to the entire <bleep>ing file system.
I have also set up anonymous ftp on both the NIS client and the server, and
it works on both with no problem.

Here is what I can guarantee the same on both machines:
ftpd
ftpaccess
ftpconversions
ftpbanner
/etc/ftpgroups
/etc/ftpusers
/etc/shells
/etc/inetd.conf
Plus, the entire heirarchy of directories in the guest home directory is the
same on both machines.

Does anybody have any ideas?  My guesses are that either the ftpd cannot
recognize the "customer" group of the guest login, or is not reading the
ftpaccess file correctly.  Note: I can rlogin into either the NIS client or
server using the guest login, so I know that NIS is working normally.

I am in panic mode since this system is supposed to be operational tonight.
*Any* ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi boys and girls!

Guess what the problem was?
/etc/inetd.conf was *not* the same on the client machine.  An old inetd.conf
had been copied over it, so the old Solaris ftpd was being used.  How
embarrassing, irritating, etc. etc.  My apologies to all who spent any amount
of time thinking about this problem.

Thanks to all that replied to may previous posts. However is there no way
of using the autogroup, and class facilities.

i.e
In ftpaccess

# Define the classes for the autogroup, the address maybe a
# globbed domain name or numeric address

class   washer  anonymous       *.philips.com *.leeds.ac.uk
class   camera  anonymous       *.polaroid.com

# Autogroup defines classes i.e.carman, helios and setegid()
# to relevant group i.e philips, helios

autogroup       philips         washer
autogroup       polaroid        camera

and in /etc/groups I have:

ftp::60000:
philips::50001:
polaroid::50002:

I then create two dirs in /ftp/pub, one washer, one camera, owned by
root, and member of philips nad polaroid groups respectively, with
permissions set as 0750.

If I then log on as anonymous but may domain is *.philips.com then should
i then become a member of philips, and hence be able to see the contents
of washer directory, but not be able to see or access the camera directory

Is this correct, or am I being extremley stupid.

If this method is impossible I'll create entries as suggested previously.

Thanks in advance

Subject: Alternate password file?
Content-Type: text
X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24]
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Has anyone considered implementing an alternate or secondary
password strategy?

This is a strategy whereby there are two (or more) password and
shadows files.  The idea being that if a user isn't found in the
primay password set, look for that id in the secondary.

Why?  To reduce the number of general user accounts on the system.
If I have only those userids in the standard password file set that
can actually login via telnet, getty or rlogin and the secondary
contains the wu-ftpd only userids, then I reduce the number of
accounts that can be hammered from 'not nice' people. :)

Yes, this does add some more administrative tasks, like adding users
to the secondary password set, sync'ing the two sets regard uids and
gids, and managing passwords in the secondary set (hmm, look like
SITE UPASS <password>).

Comments? Interest?

Well, I have considered this exact function but for a different purpose.
I am considering an application for this in a password protected Web
directory that is also set up for guest ftp.  Certainly it would be
possible just to feed the Web browser the URL of the file and let it
download the file, but there may be people that need to come in via FTP
to get files also.  For this application I would want ftpd to do its
*primary* authentication on the same password file that the Web server
would use for authentication.  This would allow a user to come in either
was as it would be most convenient.

This should be fairly easy to do, but I just have not been forced by need
to sit down and do it yet.  Do you see an overlap in these two functions
such that one implementation would do it?  I think I do, but the reversal
of primary and secondary password file checking may throw off what you
have in mind.

Yes, use domain names. Our domain paradigm.co.nz, therefore all machines are
below that, eg: machine.paradigm.co.nz

Sothe ftpaccess looks like:
  class local   real,guest,anonymous   *.paradigm.co.nz
  class remote  real,guest,anonymous   *

Hello,
       I've had no problems installing wu-ftpd on Solaris systems in the
past, but trying my luck on an old beast of a Sun3 I seem to have ran out
of it.
       After spending the entire day compiling gcc 2.7.0 on it :(, I was
finally able to compile the daemon, with minimal problems.  I used the
s41 config, and had to remove the "-g" in the OPTS field, as the system
didn't recognize -lg.
       Everything compiles without a complaint, but when trying to use
it, it doesn't appear to do much at all.  Actually, it doesn't even seem
like inetd is spawning it.  When I invoke inetd with the -d option, I
finally get a login prompt, but a "service not available" error after I
enter the username (won't let me get to the passwd).
       Also, the ckconfig program coredumps when I try to run it
(probably not a good sign).

Any help is appreciated.

I still think a better strategy is to incorporate something like
the TIS authserv, RADIUS, or TACACS+ to do this.  If you were
using something like latter two, you could even limit the
commands based on user by setting up appropriate AV-pairs.

I will be building in the TIS support shortly (this weekend) which
will not only give me the SKEY stuff that is there, but crypto
calculator support as well.  As I did for /bin/login, the fallback
will be the system password file.  I may go ahead and even make
the authserv code only kick in for certain "groups" defined in
the ftpaccess file as well.  This way an internal connection could
be straight user/password, while coming in via the "net" might
require SKey, SNK, whatever...

Just change their shells.  I typically have a small script called
/FTPonly which basically tells the user that the account is for
FTP use only and exits.

Thanks for the advice, but it doesn't solve my problem. Keith's ftp
access file doesn't deny any access from machines on the local domain.

I need to deny access to real users one the ftp server, if the
connection is established from one specific host on my local
domain. But I must let guest and anonymous through.

If I write
       class external anonymous,guest  special.dmi.min.dk
       class internal anonymous,guest,real     *
users from machine special can connect to the ftp server as real, and
I don't want that.

Any comments or ideas?

I do too, however, I have neither the expertise, nor the resources
to put any of the above in place.  It would be wonderful, and something we
do want to do in the future, to serve the ids and acl list off an auth
server behind the firewall.

I understand the idea of a stub shell.  If the userid isn't needed
for direct login, it just doesn't belong in the file.

To Michael Brennen and his idea for using the secondary for password
secured web directories.  I see no conflict at all.  If anything it
points out to me a need to generalize this idea.

Allow for the specification of password sets and their order of
use.  Maybe using the <class> concept or definition.

i.e.:

class local real,guest,anonymous *.inside.com
class remote real,guest,anonymous !*.inside.com !nameserved

password local /etc/password:/shadow ~ftp/etc/passwd:shadow \
/usr/local/etc/www/passwd:shadow

password remote /usr/local/etc/www/passwd:shadow /etc/password:/shadow \
~ftp/etc/passwd:shadow

I will be doing the TIS stuff shortly.  This is an interim solution
until I can fully understand both RADIUS and TACACS+ to decide which
one I will do.

>I understand the idea of a stub shell.  If the userid isn't needed

In which file?  passwd?  The password file is simply that... a password
file which stores some information about the user.  Don't think of it
as a place which lists only direct login accounts.  You already have a
bunch in there that aren't (daemon, bin, sys, ...) and star'ing them
out is roughly equivalent to changing their shell to something useless
except you can enable/disable other functionality as you want.  Two
services come to mind ... FTP and POP.

Now my blabbering above is somewhat hypocritical since I sort of hacked
wu-ftpd-2.3 to use the ftpgroup mechanism as a pseudo second password
file, but our requirements were considerably different.  Mine couldn't
be met by using a simple second password file.

A simple illustration... you have a user that needs FTP access only.
He needs access to files owned by group "alpha" and "beta".  Using
a second password file you can only pick one.  If you add additional
groups to /etc/group you will now have entries which do not match up
with the "real" password file.  If you synchronize, why bother having
the second?  Just a thought.

I've been munging my ftpgroups file into web password files via a
cron job.

Anyway... my feeling, for what it's worth, is that if any significant
effort is going to go into adding more sophisticated authentication
to this we should go with a more general mechanism like the IETF's
RADIUS or Cisco's TACACS+.  I understand the expertise and time
issues quite well.  I've been planning on doing this for quite some
time too -- Now I just have someone that is paying me to add TIS support
to it!

I wonder if others have also noticed some peculiarities with Mac
"fetch", an ftp client, when connecting to a UNIX system running the
wu-ftpd.

It seems that if one ftp's into a named, chrooted account on Soalris, at
least, one cannot see what one has placed there. But transfers do seem to
work

PC and UNIX clients work fine. So permissions cannot be the problem

Any ideas?

wu-ftpd-2.4   and Solaris 2.3

Thanks,

How about a class that includes only the specific host and has zero
connections allowed?

class   external real                   badhost.domain
class   internal guest,anonymous,real   *.domain
limit   external  0 Any              /ftpmsgs/sorry.msg
limit   internal  1000 Any           /ftpmsgs/toomany.msg

Just make sure this class appears before the class that includes the other
hosts in *.dom.ain -- the first match found is the one that applies.

Sounds like the problem I was having.  Check your "ls -l" on your server
from your chrooted account and see if it still lets you veiw your files
on a character based ftp client.  If it doesn't, you need to use a
statically complied ls (/sbin/ls) and put it into your ~ftp/bin directory.

(the "ls" command works without it but the "ls -l" doesn't, your mac client
is probably using the "ls -l" to show directories).

I'm having similar sorts of problems with wu-ftpd v2.4 under Solaris 2.4
and Netscape on the Mac.  Using a URL of "ftp://chester.cms.udel.edu/"
I have no problems getting a listing of the directory from a UNIX or
PC client, but if I use Netscape(Mac) I get the following error:

       Netscape is unable to find the file "/".
       Check the file name and try again.

I set up a packet sniffer and was able to find out that Netscape(mac)
attempts a PASV command which fails and then things go downhill from there.

I find it interesting that the same Mac Netscape client has problems
with wu-ftpd v2.4 under Solaris 2.4, but does *not* have problems
with it under IRIX-5.2.

More grist for the mill,

-Randy

p.s.  Not having problems here with wu-ftpd v2.4 under Solaris 2.4
     and Fetch version 3.0b6.

p.p.s Sage, I have no problems with "ls -l" from a character-based
     ftp client.

Subject: strange directory in ~ftp/incoming
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I have been running wuftpd 2.4 for a couple of months.  I have created an
incoming directory off the chroot'ed anonymous fto directory.  The permissions
were set so that thing uploaded would be "invisible" once put there.  Someone,
either through error or design, has created some wacked out directory that I
can't get rid of.

1).  How do I remove the "." owned by ftp?
2).  How do I prevent this from happening again?

    Hi Paul,

    To prevent this and similar things from happening make 2 changes to
    your ftpaccess:

    # To prevent users from creating directories
    upload /users/ftp /incoming yes root other 0600 nodirs

    # To control how users name a file
    path-filter anonymous /etc/msg.badname  ^[-A-Za-z0-9\._]*$ ^\. ^-

    As for removing the directory, the only things I can thing of would be
    to try "rm -ir .*" If that doesn't work then remove your incoming
    directory and recreate it. Since it is illegal to have a file or
    directory with the name ".", I suspect there is an unprintable
    character in its name.

1. Find the inode assigned to the file using the "ls -li" command.

Let's say that the inode # you find is "inode#"

Use the find command to blow the file away by it inode number:

"find . -inum inode# -exec rm -rf {} \;  "

This searches through the current directory for the offending crap and
sends it straight to bitbliss.

Try it in a meaningless directory using meaningless files until you get
the technique working properly! Note the spacing, too.

2. The example ftpaccess.heavy file shows how to limit acceptable user
input to printable, "reasonable" text. Here's that example.

Note that this is simply UNIX regular expressions. (simple!?)


# path-filter...
path-filter  anonymous  /etc/pathmsg  ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$  ^\.  ^-
path-filter  guest      /etc/pathmsg  ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$  ^\.  ^-

Also check out page 89 of O'Reilly "Managing INTERNET information
services" GREAT text for this kinda stuff.

Good luck. Those children out there will stop at nothing to use your ftp
archive as a dumping ground for total crap using hidden directories.

Be careful to make SURE you don't remove your 'real' . directory,
though; doublecheck it all from a directoy up if you're unsure.

I've had reports that "fetch" is not happy if it can't work out the full
file name on the remote site. If your ftp daemon does a chroot then, of
course, fetch can't see above the 'new' root directory and complains. Our
users (of an anonymous ftp site) have only reported spurious error
messages, not being unable to read directories, so this may be either a
different result of the same problem, or a completely different problem.
Ours is satisfied by telling users not to worry about it !

Hope this is some help,
Andrew

Just do a "ls -lRa > ../list.ftp"
and check list.ftp with "less" or a binary editor to find out the
non-printable chars in the dir name.

> 2).  How do I prevent this from happening again?
Check the xferlog to determine whether the dir was created via ftp
or by an internal user on your system. My guess is the latter. Because
by default the wuftpd does not allow file/dir name begin with "."

>
> ftpaccess:

If a dir has public write permission under /users/ftp, anonymous user
can make dir but not creating files. To get rid of those dirs, better
to use:

 upload /users/ftp * no root other 0600 nodir

I had the same problem with Mac FETCH, wu-ftpd, and Solaris.

The problem was solved by adding "READ" rights to the parent
directory of the home directory of the user running FETCH (then they
could get to the directory)

Subject: Setting FTP timeout
X-Mailer:     Pegasus Mail/Windows (v1.11a)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I'm running wu-ftpd on Solaris 2.3 ...

How do I set a "timeout" for idle FTP processes?

I often find old "in.ftpd" processes using the "ps -ef" command from
users that don't cleanly exit their FTP session and use "kill" to
end them.

I'd like my server to kill an FTP connection if it's been idle for 10
minutes.

Thanks for your help,

STEVE

I setup 2.4.2b6 and it seems to be ignoring the options set in
ftpaccess.  2.4 has no problems with the ftpaccess file.  Yes, I am
using the -a option and double checked the paths in pathnames.h.

I even made sure there was a copy of ftpaccess in both /usr/local/etc
and /etc.

I am running Solaris 2.4

Any ideas?

X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I occasionally receive some error messages in syslog, such like:
.. ftpd[8288]: exiting on signal 11: Try again
The ftp client was disconnected while uploading many files:
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

I make some experiments about it on Beta 4, Beta 6 and the old standard
release on Linux 1.2.3, 1.2.8, 1.2.13.
Results show that you can't upload more than 57 files!
57 is the number of uploading limit. If you upload one more file,
the ftp client receives:
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
and the server:
ftpd[18296]: exiting on signal 11: Try again

Then, I log debug msg to syslog and I get:

Looks like kind of buffer overflow. Any fix?

Subject: Guest Accounts Denied
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

Thanks to all who helped me complete a good compile of ver.2.4!
The anonymous account works just as promised.

Now I must move ahead to other problems....GUEST ACCOUNTS

I've got a Sparc2/SunOS 4.1.4, gcc 2.6.3 and wuftpd-2.4.
I'm running into a problem such that the guest user is getting this response.

 220 infoserv1 FTP server (Version wu-2.4(1) Wed Oct 18 19:18:35 CDT 1995) ready.
 Name (infoserv1:jeffm): guest1
 530 User guest1 access denied...
 Login failed.
 ftp>

I have this in the system /etc/group file...

 guests:*:26:guest1,guest2,guest3

I have this in the system /etc/passwd file...

 guest1:Oiy33CixVIy.E:4290:26:Guest Ftp User:/disk2/FTP/GUESTS/GUEST1/./guest1:/bin/false

I have this line in the ftpaccess file...

 guestgroup guests

The GUEST1 directory has the customary bin,etc,usr,dev directories the same as in the
anonymous directory. I'm not sure what the chroot'd /etc/group and /etc/passwd need
to have in them, I tried several combinations with no success.

I don`t have guest1 in the ftpusers file, but it acts like I do. The ftpusers file looks like
this....

 root
 nobody
 daemon
 sys
 bin
 uucp
 news
 ingres
 audit
 sync
 sysdiag
 sundiag

ANY IDEAS.....?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

In ftpcmd.y, line 1367 the string in the reply hard codes the
username 'ftp-bugs' and uses only the hostname for the
domain address.

I would like to see one or more of the following:

1 - use the 'email' directive from the ftpaccess file.

2 - add a directive for 'domainname' (or pick it up from the system)
   that is used for the %D expansion

3 - add a directive for 'admin' for an administrative email address
   that could be different from the 'email' ftp archive maintainer
   and expanded for %A.

I've hacked the code to load the full domain name for my site into
sitename which I've changed for hostname as the cscope output details.

Enjoy!  Comments welcome!

I'm seeing our ftpd's just hang and never
drop out of the process queue.  Not sure
what circumstances cause this, as much of
the time it doesn't happen.

If anyone else has seen similar, please
pass along your solution.

Thanks,

Why doesn't someone finally volunteer and initiate a FAQ? If I had the
time, I'd do it myself, but I already maintain a couple of Linux docs...

There's a patch I was sent last week (for the academ-beta5 version). If you
are interested, e-mail me at [email protected], and I'll send it to you.

Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're
guessing.

Hello,
       I just installed wu-ftpd on a Sun running Solaris 2.4. Everything look great up until I do an 'ls' under a guest account and I get this error:

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

       Maybe someone has seen this before. I did run a 'truss -f chroot ~ftp /bin/ls' to find out what I needed to run 'ls'. I moved in all the libs needed under ~ftp/usr/lib and looks ok. What else do I need?

Thanks very much.

Have you created those are "special char" files (zero and tcp) in the /dev
directory?
Remember, you can not cp them. Here are the comands to create them:

cd into /dev
type:
# mknod zero c 13 12
# mknod tcp c 11 42
# cd ..
# chmod 555 dev

Hope this helps...

Cheers, Uwe

Subject: WU-FTPD 2.4.2 Academ Beta 7 is ready for testing
Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


This is another release candidate. This version has the following
fixes/additions:


Bug report from Evan Champion <[email protected]> concerning the diagnostics
from the randomsig subroutine.

Support for SCO from Bill Aten <[email protected]>.

Additions of a cookie '%u' to extensions.c which will show the RFC931 remote
username when available. I somehow like it to have the remote user see we
take the 'all actions are logged' line seriously. Addition from Bill Aten
<[email protected]>.

Changes in the configuration files for BSD/OS to accomodate a bug in the
sprintf inheritied from BSD 4.4 Lite. (Affects FreeBSD, NetBSD and BSD/OS)

Support for Hitachi Unix varient added. [Need name of contributor!]

NOTE: There is some pending changes for Linux that I am waiting for the
contributor to resend. I mistakenly removed those before I reviewed them.

I have heard nothing from the AIX user community. If you are an AIX site,
PLEASE TEST THIS and let me know if it works ok.

I have tested it on BSD/OS 1.1 and 2.0.1, NetBSD 1.0, FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE,
Interactive Unix 3.2.2, Linux 1.2.8, Solaris 2.4 (sparc) and SunOS 4.1.4. It
appears to work fine on all of those. I don't currently have access to an
IRIX machine, so I have not tested it there. I would like to hear from an SCO
site since the SCO support has been updated and I don't have SCO to test on.

I would like to concentrate on bug fixes if any to get this to release.
Please send your bug fixes to [email protected].

Thanks!

Subject: Confused on Groups...
X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN

I'll try and make this brief...

I have a ftp site running that is anonymous only.  Anon. users may upload into
/incoming that "hides" their uploads (write only, I think) as described in
_Managing Internet Information Services_.  I now need to add some sort of access
for internal users to retrieve files from this area and to place files into an
/outgoing area.  Ideally the /outgoing would be "hidden" files, but readable (ie
you must know the filename to get it and ls returns an empty directory).

Should I (a) create a group, (b) use autogroup (all accesses are from a single
machine), or (c) use the site group feature?  Which is more secure?

Is the ftpgroups file the only group file that needs entries of does the
/etc/groups also need the group defined?  How do I get an encryped password into
ftpgroups or ~ftp/etc/groups?

Is there any ftp system that provides better access control (ie file passwords)
similar to that found in a dial-up BBS?

Hello,

I have compiled wuftpd 2.4 on HP-UX 10.01 machine ( HP-UX  B.10.01 E 9000/809).
Right now I'm testing the ftpd. The permision for ~ftp/usr/bin/ls is 666.
If I ftp from Sun machines and login to be ftp (runs solaris or SunOS),
the ls command  works but not ls -l and form any HP machines (HP-UX version 9.x
or 10.x), the  ls command does not work.
But If I ftp from any Sun Or HP platforms and login to be root the ls and dir
command work.
Do you have any suggestion of how to solve this proble?

Hello all,

Please, if there is a FAQ, and especially if it answers the following
question, would some kind soul direct me to it? Thanks.

I have been trying to set up WUFTP to allow a specific remote user
(preferably without a REAL user account) to deposit and update files
in one of the anonymous ftp directories. I can't figure out how to
let him write to the directory without everybody being able to. I
want _only_ him (well... anyone from his machine) to be able to write
to that directory via anonymous ftp.

The other alternative I've tried is to make him a real user and use
gestgroup. But I can't figure out how to keep him from being able
to telnet into my machine as well. Can someone tell me where to find
(or what it has in it) /etc/ftponly that the wu-ftpd documentation
refers to?

Thanks in advance.

Not a complete answer but to your latter question,
/etc/ftponly can just be a symlink to /etc/null.
(This is mentioned somewhere in the docs).

You can use chuser (or SMIT) to set the user to
login=no, su=no, telnet=no, rlogin=no.

That is as secure as whatever AIX gives you in that area;
I have no idea if it is bulletproof or not.

You also have some protection in making his home
directory whatever you want, so that even if
he logs on somehow, his view of the world should be
fairly limited (I think - it certainly is when he ftps).

I'm new to this mailing list myself, and still learning the in's and out's
of wu-ftpd's various ways of being used and configured.  But, what I've
been doing is defining a unix group called "ftponly" in /etc/group and
in ftpaccess specifying ftponly as a guestgroup.  Then in /etc/passwd I
have ftponly users login shell set to the passwd command so if they telnet
or rlogin they can change their password, it exits when passwd finishes.

Hi All,
       I'm using wu-ftp2.4.2 acedem beta 7 with the -DVIRTUAL switch
defined and I'm having a strange problem. It seems if I define the
virtual line in ftpaccess as:

virtual xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /home/directory /home/directory/login.msg

anonymous ftp works just fine. Guestgroup logins work except for the
fact that they don't get changed into their ./name directory. IE:
guestgroup one has directory /home/directory/./name but when they login
they are in /home/directory.
However, if I specify the virtual line in ftpaccess as:

virtual xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /home/directory

Then anonymous ftp logs in the the REAL server (not the virtual one) and
the Guestgroup logins work just fine!

This is on Solaris 2.4

Anyone seen similar behavior?

If you are sure it is 666, there is no execute permission ... try 111 or
555 instead.

We've setup wu-ftpd-2.4 on a x86 (a 486 and a Pentium) running Solaris 2.4
for both anonymous and guest ftp users. Everything is running fine but
we've got two problems (so, not everything is running fine :-)):

- it sometimes crashes the system (BAD TRAP). We have no hard proof for it
 yet, but everytime the system crashes, the last two lines in the messages
 file are from ftpd logging USER and PASS:
   Oct 22 19:01:23 asterix ftpd[24450]: USER username
   Oct 22 19:01:24 asterix ftpd[24450]: PASS password
   Oct 22 19:04:30 asterix unix:  SunOS Release 5.4 Version Generic_101946-12 [UNIX(R) System V Release 4.0]
 This happens very (too) regularly, like twice a day, but not every time
 someone logs in with ftp.

- every now and then a ftpd keeps hanging around. Probably caused by
 persons not exiting their ftp-client in a clean way.  And after the
 maximum number of ftpd is reached, no user can login anymore.  Running
 'netstat -a' shows a lot of these entries:
           *.ftp       *.*                0      0  9648      0 BOUND
     obelix.32931      *.*                0      0     0      0 LISTEN
   [ obelix is the hostname ]
 Of what I understand the new version (2.4.2) should fix this?

The following patches are installed:
- 101946-12: jumbo patch for kernel
- 102008-01: vnode v_count is not maintained correctly
- 102287-01: /usr/lib/utmpd fix

Especially the first problem causes us a lot of problems.
Can anyone help us out? If you need more information about the
configuration please mail me.

Thanks,

Same here on Linux 1.2.13. I think it is reasonable not to change into
their ./name directory. Since the virtual server has different root dir
from the one in /etc/passwd. So, the root dir from "virtual" line + home
dir name from /etc/passwd does not make much sense.

Moreover, I found "upload" keyword in
ftpaccess does not work for virtual server. Anonymous login can
write anywhere where they have write permission. However, "upload"
keyword works fine in the real server. Can someone confirm on other
platforms?

Another stranges thing:
the server will fail if one does:
cd /incoming/aa/bb
it is fine to:
cd /incoming/aa
cd bb

There is a .message file under dir aa. aa and bb have the permission of 1777.
/incoming has permission of 771.

My test results show BOTH guestgroup and anonymous log in the REAL server.
the "virtual xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx /home/directory" line is ignored and the line
in /etc/passwd is used correctly. (under Linux 1.2.13)

If you don't have AIX (the original poster didn't mention this) you can at
least start telnetd via the TCP wrapper and disclose telnet logins from
certain machines/nets.

Hi,
 I'm trying to install wu-ftpd 2.4 on a sparc5 (solaris 2.4) workstation.
The problem is that ./build sol fails due apparently to an error in
ftpd.c.
 cc complains about undefined symbols like typenames, modenames and formnames.
I think that it is assumed they are declared somewhere in an .h file, but
*where*?

 Any help will be useful...
 Thank you in advance

You have to replace your /usr/include/arpa/ftp.h with the one supplied in
the wu-ftpd distribution. That will pick up those definitions.

Good Luck,

Can anyone give me some background on TIS and TACACS+?

I'm well versed in RADIUS but know almost nothing about what the other two
could do for me.

Bonjour, Veronique.
Please try replacing the ftp.h in your /usr/include/arpa directory with
the one in the support?(or is it src?) of your wu-ftpd distribution.

Hope this helps.  (And that I'm not totally wrong.)

Subject: a better timeout patch

X-Listprocessor-Version: 7.1 -- ListProcessor by CREN


All right, I mentioned before that I wasn't happy with the previous
timeout patch I sent out, so I rethought it and decided to use SO_KEEPALIVE.

*Important*  This patch has not been extensively tested, and only on SunOS
4.1.4.  There had been enough complaints, that I thought I'd send it out
and let you all beat on it.  :)   It is against 2.4.2-beta-7.

Use at your own risk, I make no claims that it will work on *any*
platform, including 4.1.4.

The default tcp_keepidle is 14400 seconds.  This is most certainly
excessive, so you can turn it down with netconfig [available at
ftp.ucsd.edu:/pub/csl/netconfig] (on SunOS 4.1.4 at least..  Solaris uses
ndd).

For instance:

netconfig tcp_keepidle 900

You'll need to put that in your startup files, BTW.

I would really appreciate hearing about successes and certainly about
failures.

Good luck.

Is there any further docs or a FAQ for this server other than the man pages
that come in the doc directory when it is un-tarred.

I have downloaded wu-ftpd-2.4.

Thanks

All right.. I was hasty.  It doesn't work as well as the previous patch
(but seems to work better than nothing.)

I'll look into it a little more and see what I can come up with.  *sigh*

Dear Sirs:

I am an Administrator of a local network at Chernogolovka, a
Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
A couple of days ago, we received a FTP server designed and  donated
by Washington University ( Release 2.4). I have the server installed on my
computer which incorporates the operational system  FreeBSD 2.0.5.

Regrettably, every time anyone tries to communicate with my computer
in the FTP mode, the following sentence shows up on the screen:

  Oct 23 16:59:05 netserv1 ftpd[619]: open of pid file failed: No such
  file or directory

I would be very grateful, if you could possibly explain the reason
and help.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Faithfully,

                                          Radik Usmanov

TIS goes for the FWTK (Firewall Toolkit, Trusted Information Systems).  You
will find more info on {ftp,http}://{ftp,www}.tis.com.

TACACS does a similar job for cisco routers as RADIUS does for Livingston (?)
routers.

Everything seemed to install fine with the beta 7 except AIX does not have
a sys_siglist[].  I removed this call from ftpd.c, and everything went
smooth.

Oh I forgot to post it here . It also works fine for 4.1.3 AIX on Model 43P
but there is no need to remove the sys_siglist[] just declare it at external :-)

As per others suggestions, and according to what
the debugger was telling us, we patched our ftpd.c
file as follows.  It certainly cleared up the hangs
that were waiting after accepts.  For what it's worth:

 1710  /*

Your problem is caused by a non-existing directory.

WU-FTPD maintains a PID file for each class of connected user.  They
are used for 'ftpwho' and logging (I think).  These
files are stored in the daemon ftp directory.  By default this is:
   /usr/local/daemon/ftpd
Create this directory and it should go.

If it still does not work then look in you pathnames.h for the
directory it is using.

Good luck,
Keith.

Hi,
 I'd installed the wu-ftpd on my Sparc5 (solaris 2.4) workstation. Now
everithing is fine, except that I cannot get a file to be compressed on the fly!
Since it was one of the reason which makes me throw away the old ftpd I'm
a little bit upset! Apparently I do something wrong, or I do not do something
that must be done...
 I use the distribution ftpconversions file and, of cours I have the line

compress yes local remote

in my /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess file...


I appreciate any help....

There isn't a teleport.c in the beta 6 release, though the stuff you had
could be incorporated elsewhere.

In any event, the patches do not work for me (SunOS 4.1.3_U1).  I have
to constantly kill anonymous ftp processes that are hanging around.

I have the following inetd.conf startup line:

       in.ftpd -l -a -T1200

Any clues, hints, etc?

Hi All.

A two fold message:

1) I have downloaded wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-7 on my BSD/OS 2.0.1 machine in
/usr/local/ftp.  The only changes I made to src/pathnames.h is for
utmp, wtmp and lastlog to reflect my system.  I have also added the
-DVIRTUAL to CFLAGS in src/Makefile.bdi  and
support/makefiles/Makefile.bdi.  The compile seemed to go well, but I
kept on getting a warning:

/usr/local/ftp% ./build bdi
make args are :
make opts are :

I gather this is normal?

2) Then, when I did ./build install:

/usr/local/ftp% ./build install
make args are :
make opts are :
mv -f /usr/libexec/ftpd /usr/libexec/ftpd-old
mv: rename /usr/libexec/ftpd to /usr/libexec/ftpd-old: No such file

Stop.
/usr/local/ftp%

The first error here, i.e.  mv: rename /usr/libexec/ftpd to /usr/libexec/ftpd-old:
No such file or directory, makes sense because there is no /usr/libexec/ftpd
directory.  Should I create one so that ./build install stops complaining?

The second error really has me perplexe.  If I try to find either
nroff, groff or troff, I only get their man pages.

Help???

Hello All:

       I'm having trouble compiling wu-ftpd-2.4 and the beta 7 for
NEXTSTEP 3.3.  I've managed to get rid of a bunch of warnings but I'm
still left with things like:

Making ftpd.

       Has anyone successfully compiled the beta 7 for NEXTSTEP and
can tell me what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks very much.

Craig.

Hi,

  I have a guestgroup set up that is unable to do an 'ls'.  I believe I
have the required directories set up properly but, maybe not. Chroot seems
to work ok and access to the files is ok but, they are unable to see anything.
Does anyone know what I have done wrong?

Thanks,

Jane

Make sure you have /dev/zero made with 'mknod zero c 3 12', not 13 12
Make sure you have /usr/lib/ld.so
                           libc.so...
                           libdl.so...

Hope that helps.

Sorry, that's for SunOS 4.1.x, at least here :-)

Didn't mean to hit the whole list with the reply either. Just forgot what
I was doing and deleted the original.

Hi Walt,

   Thank you for your suggestion but, it didn't work.  It is the weirdest
thing.  I have the directories set, the permissions set but, as soon as
I put the 'guestgroup groupname' in the ftpaccess file, the 'ls' doesn't work.
Do you think you might have a sample ftpaccess file I could look at? Does
this problem ring any other bells for you?  I really appreciate your help.
This is my last stumbling block in a project I'm working on...(I think).

Thanks,

Jane

Sorry again list folks. Seems wu-ftpd list gets replies sent to the

It won't happen again. :-)

I, too, have this problem. No suggestions have worked. I'm running

To all of those suffering from this, check if you are running a dynamic
version of ls:

ldesrosi% file -f ~ftp/bin/ls
/usr/bin/ls:    ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked,
stripped
ldesrosi%

If so, then:

Truss is called "trace" on SunOs 4.x. To my knowledge, Slackware Linux no not
have a truss/trace utility. If you can't find a similar tools, just use brute
force: copy all /usr/lib in ~ftp/usr/lib and start deleting item one by one:
before long you'll find those needed.

To help a bit, here are the one I use on soalris:

Hi again.

I figured out that I did not install nroff on this BSDi machine (I
have two and confuse them sometimes).  So I took nroff from one and
put it on the other.  I now get an error code 3 because I also do not
have groff on this machine.  Is there a way for me to tell the
wu-ftpd installation program to simply forget about groff?  Or do I
really, REALLY need groff in order for the ftp daemon to work
properly?  As far as I know, an editor for man pages should not
affect the ftpd, but then again, I'm still pretty new at this.

Any help appreciated.

It's called strace (and it's quite nice, much better interpretation of

On Linux, 'ldd' works well to determine what dynamic libraries are
required for a given executable.

Thanks to all.

After checking ALL recommendations and all looking good I peeked
at where "ftp" vs all the others were chrooted.

Silly me. I had some circular library links. Initially I'd been concerned
over where wu-ftp would look; lib or usr/lib so I messed up with links.

I now only have ~others/usr/lib and it works dandy.

Thanks,

Jeffrey

I didn't see them, and they certainly aren't in the beta 7 release.  I'd
suggest re-applying them.

I went back at looked at the patch file.  Not only is it an ugly patch,
but it is backwards.  The diff file was created to REMOVE the patches from
the source, not add them.

The beta 7 version is broken when compiled under SunOS 4.1.3.  The following
is the output while compiling:

Making ftpd.
gcc -g -DDEBUG -I.. -I../support -L../support  -target sun4 -c  ftpd.c
ftpd.c: In function `randomsig':
ftpd.c:658: `sys_siglist' undeclared (first use this function)
ftpd.c:658: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
ftpd.c:658: for each function it appears in.)
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `ftpd.o'


The "sys_siglist" doesn't exist under SunOS 4.1.3.  It isn't defined anywhere
in the ftpd src tree either.

Oops, a fix is needed.

This changed under beta 6 or 7, not sure which.  It used to read:

syslog(LOG_ERR, "exiting on signal %d: %s", sig, strerror(sig));

Changing it back to this work properly.

       For some reason ftpwho on Solaris 2.4 with wu-ftp 2.4.2-b7 doesn't
display who is connect and where they are connected from, etc.
ie:
Service class all:
   root  4540   155 80 10:27:18 ?        0:02 in.ftpd -a

However, under SunOS is seems to work just fine:

Service class other:
7491 ?  S     0:00 -gore.navisoft.com: jayme: IDLE (ftpd)

I do have SETPROCTITLE defined. Anyone else have this problem?

Two reasons that I can think of that would cause this:

 1.  You aren't logged in as root when you do the ftpwho.

 2.  The directory /usr/local/daemon/ftpd (or whereever you it was
     configured on your system) doesn't exist.

Hi again everyone.

This is an ultra simplistic question, and I do apologize to those
that are fed up with newbies.

I've been trying to figure out where to put the passwd and group
files, as well as the executables (ls, etc.) on my BSDi machine.
>From what I understood, they should be in the path that ftp chroots
to, but I just can't figure out where that would be.  In the INSTALL
document of beta-7, the path is represented as ~ftp/.......

I have put untared the program in /usr/local/ftp .  Is that where I
should work out of?  ftpd is in /usr/libexec.  The ftp user's path in
/etc/passwd is /var/spool/ftp (that's from the ftp that comes with
BSD/OS).  Would that be it then?  AARRG!

Thanks for reading this.

       Under Solaris 2.4 and wu-ftp 2.4.2-b7 it seems that the ftpdaemon is
not loggin ftp's to the utmp or the lastlog file. Has anyone else found
this to be true? (seems to work just fine under SunOS)

The Solaris OS doesn't allow programs to change their argv[] array, so the
SETPROCTITLE hack won't work.

(FAQ material.. I'm not blaming you but it has been asked before)

Hi,

I want wu-ftpd to log to syslog.  Is this possible?  Is this a configuration
option that I did not find?

Also, what does the "log commands" in ftpaccess do?  For me, it doesn't log
anything...

Thank you,

Hi Folks,

Sorry for taking forever to reply to your requests for the wu-ftpd
patches for NetBSD, SVR4 and/or the LOGDAEMON S/Key implementation.

After I put in the LOGDAEMON S/Key and SVR4 code, there was a need
to run wu-ftpd on NetBSD, so Christos Zoulas modified it to compile
on NetBSD.  He cleaned up the code a lot to make it compile with all
gcc warnings enabled (-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes).  Simultaneously I
modified the code further to make it use the KERBEROS and S/Key
implementations shipped with NetBSD (1.0A).

The NetBSD S/Key seems to be quite close to the original Bellcore
one, in case you wish to compile against that library.

The KERBEROS part is untested, as we do not have KERBEROS installed
here.  It should be correct, though, but please do let me know if
you have any problems with it.

The patch is available via anonymous ftp:

       ftp://ftp.gw.com/pub/people/kim/wu-ftpd.patch

We would very much like to see the patch incorporated into future
versions of wu-ftpd.

The complete patched source is also available:

       ftp://ftp.gw.com/pub/people/kim/wu-ftpd.tar.gz

Please note that the source was last compiled under SunOS 4.1.4,
and some modifications were made.  We have not recompiled under
SVR4 or NetBSD, as the modifications were only to fix missing and
incorrect function declarations (i.e. no functionality changes
were made).  Again, if you have any problems, please let me know.

Cheers,
+ Kim

I have been trying to use WU-FTPD Version 2.4 on my OSF/1 Version 3.2
(Rev. 214) to allow individuals to be able to download HTML files to
specific directories within my WWW server root directory.  However, I am
unable to get the Group Access capabilities working using the login
directory field.  According to page 80 of the book "Managing Internet
Information Services", "the login directory field is interpreted in a
special way by FTPD.  The login directory field is actually two
pathnames, seperated by /./, (slash-dot-slash).  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.  So the entry:

 guest1:PCdpadpPDpad:202:21:Guest FTP user:/users/guests/./guest1:/bin/false

changes guest1's view of the filesystem so that /users/guests appears to
be the root and logs her in to the new root's guest1 directory."

When I create a directory with the GID and UID set as specified in my
/etc/passwd file, I get the following error when I try to ftp in :

Password:
550 Can't set guest privileges.
Login failed.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.


I think I am on the right track, but I cannot see where the problem is.
I have checked directory ownerships, privs etc., and cannot find anything
wrong.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I may be able to fix this problem
or even a better way to allow individuals to download files to specific
directories?  I don't want them to be able to access any other
directories than the one they login to, which is what I believe that
WU-FTP is doing with the above example.

Thanks in advance,

               Neil :-)

Hi,

While FTPing from a Sun to an Ultrix box running wu-ftpd-2.4 (no *Hobbit*
fix, no academ.com beta)  I had the following session:

sun% ftp ultrix
connected to ultrix.
220 ultrix FTP server (Version wu-2.4(8) Wed Mar 1 01:12:39 EET 1995) ready.
Name (ithaca:george): f

331 Password required for USER.
Password: PASSWD
230 User PASSWD logged in.
          ^^^^--- ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
ftp> quit

sun%

Fortunately, syslog does not log the password, which is revealed on the
terminal though.  Is there a patch for this bug?  Does it exist on the
other versions arround (academ beta and *Hobbit*'s)?  Does it happen only
on Ultrices?  I've repeated this many times from many ftp clients to the
ultrix server.

I'd like to see the list's comments on this.

The home directory of "ftp" as listed in your real password file is
what ~ftp stands for.  You can always change it if you like.

I just tried this address and get a host unknown error.  Can't ping
fegmania.wustl.edu either.

Hi,
       I was wondering if there is a different way to use limit than with
class. I have two different guestgroup's and I need to limit one to 100
users and the other to 10 users. However, it seems that I can only assign
class's to guest, real and anonymous. Is there another way to assign
classes?

This is what I currently have in ftpaccess:
----------------------------------------------------------
class   real    real            *
class   guest   guest           *

limit   real    10    Any              /etc/msgs/msg.dead
limit   guest   100   Any              /etc/msgs/msg.dead

guestgroup one
guestgroup two
-----------------------------------------------------------

I'd like to limit guestgroup one to 100 logins and guestgroup two to 10.

               Thanks,
                               --Jayme

This question is slowly turning a FAQ too.

Alas, there's no such beast up to now. There are several other FAQs which
talk about ftp, but none which explicitly deals with wu-ftpd.

Unfortunately, fegmania appears to be just an MX record to wugate at
this time...

Well.. since I'm the one who started this (sort of), I am willing to take
the task of maintaining the wu-ftpd faq.

One warning : I have absolutely NO personal experience with a number of
features of wu-ftpd (including the guestgroup settings) so I'll have to
go by information supplied by others.

But, time permitting, I am willing to collect the frequently asked questions
and answers about getting recent wu-ftpd versions, installing and running
wu-ftpd and make them available for ftp.

I keep a folder of interesting messages posted to this list. I could mail
it to you if you'd like. I dropped mostly all messages about AIX (Sorry)
and kept those about Solaris and Linux because it's what I am using but
there is some general stuff that could be of general interest too.
