All,

I think the "my favourite language is better than your favourite language"
debate has progressed a bit beyond the charter of this mailing list, which
is supposed to be about the WU-FTPD server and related issues.

If you want to keep arguing about this, fine, but could you please do so
somewhere other than this list ? There are plenty of places where it would
be more relevant.

:-)

Thanks in anticipation...

Cheers, Bob

Ok, fruitcakes, it's time I piped up here. A year ago I released a C version
of everyones-hated-perl-utility xferstats. For the last 6 months or so, I've
been doing a total rewrite, adding features, optimizations as I go along. In
the next couple of days I'll be finished with the documentation and ready to
release the long-awaited 2.00. You may wish to put off your Python-hacking
efforts two more days to see if it saves you the trouble.

In the meantime, if you're the least bit curious about what it does, take a
look at http://xferstats.off.net:8080 -- there's a link there to some of the
output of my latest run, although it also generates traditional text tables.

Real Easy.. Go in to src/config/config.lnx and change this group of lines.
Take out the "#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < 13104"
and take out a "#endif" at the bottom.

do a make clean before you do this and then recompile and it should be
fine.

#define __USE_POSIX
#include <limits.h>
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < 131104
#define NBBY 8
#ifndef NCARGS
#ifdef _POSIX_ARG_MAX
#define NCARGS _POSIX_ARG_MAX
#endif
#endif
#endif

Hello everyone,

I have just installed precompiled wu-ftpd 2.4(2) (Solaris 2.5.1) from
http://www.sunfreeware.com.

Whenever I try (as anonymous) to use SITE EXEC commands the systems
seems to do nothing.

Example:

ftp> site exec tar xvf test.tar
200-tar xvf test.tar
200 (end of 'tar xvf test.tar')
ftp>

There is no error message in the system log file and I think I have set
it up correctly (tar is placed in ~ftp/bin/ftp-exec).

I have tried the same with guest account with the same result.

Is there something I could do ? I have checked the FAQ and mailing list
archives.

Thanks in advance.

Are there any restrictions or licensing requirements for the release of wu-ftpd
as part of a commercial product? I have looked through the FAQ and the mail

Does silence on this topic mean there are not any restrictions? Or am I
missing something?

Thank you.

Just downloaded the sparc version of 2.00.

What is a ".rpm" file and how do I extract it?

RedHat Package Manager, and you need the rpm command supplied with RedHat
Linux or available for download (I think) from their site.

What you wanted to grab was the tar file instead.

Not what you want. Use GET instead for this, assuming test is a
directory:

GET test.tar

or

GET test.tar.gz

or

GET test.Z

etc

Hi all --

Anyone out there using WU-FTP with SecurID authentication?

I've got an ACE/Server (v 3.2.2); an ACE/Agent installed on Solaris
2.6 (we've verified that telnet authentication and authentication
using the somewhat crippled SDI_FTPd daemon provided by Security
Dynamics both work, so it's not a problem with authenticating to the
ACE/Server); and a boatload of FTP clients (RedHat, Solaris, Win95).
The Solaris system with the agent installed is using shadow passwords.

We need some of the extended security features of WU-FTP, and we need
to authenticate FTP users with SecurID tokens. So after much work
I wrangled a (probably proprietary) set of SecurID libraries and
code out of Security Dynamics this afternoon; we compiled the code
on our Solaris server and it is now responding to FTP requests.

Non-SecurID authenticated users (i.e. users with static passwords) can
successfully log into the FTP server and get to their home directories
just fine.

SecurID users are prompted for their passcodes; they get the
PASSCODE accepted message, immediately followed by "Login failed."

What little I've been able to find hacking through the archives suggests
that this might mean that WU-FTP has not been compiled with shadow
password support. I can't find anything in the doc that is very
convincing -- the config.h file does include the line

#define SHADOW_PASSWORD

but the makefile does not include a call to the shadow library, or
anything else to suggest that it's been included.

Any ideas???

TIA (a lot) -- Tina Bird

Hmm, I just visited your site and all I saw was four rpm's, no tarball.

On the fly compression and tar work fine (enabled in ftpaccess).

I want to untar the file test.tar on the ftp server after an upload.
The ftp (guest)account should be used for maintaining web pages.

Sorry, the first line of my last posting was incorrect.

I want to untar the file test.tar on the ftp server after an upload.
The ftp (guest)account should be used for maintaining web pages.

You should edit support/snprintf.c
Add the following line

#undef _SYS_VA_LIST_H

before this block

#ifdef SOLARIS2
#ifdef _SYS_VA_LIST_H
#define SOLARIS26
#endif

Subject: Anonymous config - dynamic, static ls
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hello,

I have installed wuftpd242 beta17 on a solaris and it works
well for real users, but I have some config difficulties
with anonymous access :
I used the "wu-ftpd-faq.html#QA32"
I don't known how to copy the /dev/tcp file in ~ftp/dev
(same problem for /dev/zero)

Then, I tried to install a static ls reading :
http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/1998/Mar/0051.html

But when I try to apply this patch and I got this error :
$> patch < fileutils-3.13_static-ls.patch
Looks like a new-style context diff.
File to patch:

Thanks in advance

OK, I got RPM, but it wouldn't unload the package because it
couldn't find "libc.so.5". Ok, Installed GNUgcc and compiled it all.
Now I get "Bus error - core dumped".

Any clues guys?

Look at this page http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/setup-scripts.html
It has several setup scripts for Solaris.
Read it and you'll know how to copy /dev/ files or use them directly.

To build wu-ftp you should be using the command

#./build hpx

If you are using this and getting the above errors then probably you have
one of two conditions:

1. gcc has never been built on your system

2. gcc is not in your path statement.

Do a

#find / -name gcc

and see if gcc exists on your target system at all. If it does make sure
that its directory is either in your path statement or that the binary and
path is specified in all Makefile.hpx files

If gcc is not on your system then find out what cc you do have. gcc is
the GNU project cc compiler and the current version is 2.8.1. It does not
ship with HP-UX. The cc that is bundled with HP-UX is a K&R C compiler
and does not support ANSI C extensions or syntax. The other alternative
is that you have the C SDK product from HP. This cc compiler is an
ANSI compliant compiler.

The hpx makefiles that come with every distribution that I have seen up to
b15 are normally set to use the HP ANSI C compiler. Since you are
getting gcc as the default compiler you must either be using the wrong
build command or someone must have modified the hpx makefiles by
hand to invoke gcc.

To obtain gcc for HP-UX you can either get the binaries from one of the
HP-UX porting sites ( http://hpux.cae.wisc.edu/ ) or you can get the
source from one of the GNU mirror archives (
ftp://ftp.cs.ubc.ca/mirror2/gnu/ ) and build it yourself. In either case you
may find it necessary to obtain additional support programs like flex and
bison to make things work.

Bear in mind that the switch for ANSI in HP's C (-aA) means something
completely different to gcc and should be removed from the hpx makefiles
if you are using gcc.

Regards,
Jim

I know that this probably breaks the FTP standard, but I would
really like a file transfer server that supports strong authentication
(e.g. CHAP).

Anybody else want to do this ?

Subject: guest user problem.

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

Hi,

Having a problem with using the guest user option in wuftpd. I
have set up everything as the faqs (and mailing lists) say to do, but I
get a wierd ls result. What happens when I log in as the guest user is
that issuing ls, ls -l or dir do not work but doing nlist will. Why is
that? Ls is staticly linked, the test os is FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE, the
production machine is running 2.2.6-RELEASE, stock wuftpd-b17. ALso the
ftpaccess and associated files pass ftpck's checks.

Another quirk is that if I cd as the guest user to / (user is
logged into /username as thier initial root) I can no longer get ls output
from even nlist, thats the way it is supposed to work, right? =] CD'ing
back to their initial root works and things are sorta happy. I know I have
probally missed something simple and apologize for bringing up an issue
that looks like its been beaten seven ways to sunday, but I am out of
ideas. Thanks for any help.

P.S. Feeding nlist and argumenet (nlist -l) does not work for the guest
user but does for a real user.

You mean like S/Key?? It's in there. Now wouldn't it be cool
if "gui" ftp clients could recognize the s/key prompt and
pop open a window for the client. Much like BetterTelnet for
the Mac does (when you connect, it pops open a windows for your
SKey password and replies with the correct response).

Or kerberos? It's in there (at least kerb4, not gss-api/K5).

If I really need strong auth or encryption, I usually use ssh (scp).

How about ssl ftp?

Anyone have an ssl-extended version of wuftpd? Any chance of
integrating such a thing into the main wuftpd sources?

(We use an ssl ftp around here quite often, but the ftpd is limited,
and... it doesn't work well on irix. It's fine on solaris, linux and
osf/1 tho)

In-Reply-To: <[email protected]>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hi,

I was looking for anyone who might have gotten wu-ftpd to
work in standalone mode? I found a patch for 2.4.2 beta 13, but when
I try applying it to the release version of 2.4.2 beta13, I get an
error about certain files not being found in the src tree.

I need to do some ftp network speed tests on machines I do
not have root for. I have been working with a wu-ftpd that
was modified for long tcp windows, but I need to run it on
a non-privileged port >1024 as a typical user.

I also thought I might be able to find an inetd source that I
could hack and get it to bind a high # port with wu-ftpd.
Sounds like a good idea?

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks! Mike Linhart

Hi agian,

Well fixed my own problem after grabbing lunch. Seems that I had
the user chroot one directory to many before the chdir occured, basicly
putting ls out of the path. Sorry for hassling everyone.

Actually, I had posted a patch not too long ago that adds full kerberos 5
gssapi authentication support (not just password verification) to wuftpd.

I am trying to restrict a user to a DIRECTORY and its SUBDIRECTORY ONLY;
however, WU does not seem to be using the /etc/ftpusers file. If I
enter the username and restrict, it makes no difference. They can still
go to any directory they wish.

What am I doing wrong?

You'll need to write a special-purpose program for this and put that
program into the chroot'd (you are chroot'd I hope) area. Beyond that,
I've never used SITE EXEC myself, so I'm unsure. There was quite a bit of
discussion on index commands way back (94 or 95) on the mailing list; you
should be able to figure out how to do what you want from the discussion
back then.

Actually, rolling your own inetd-ish program to wrap wu-ftpd should be
fairly easy, especially given the limited nature of what you're doing.
So, yeah, I'd say that's a good idea. You will probably also have to do a
little hacking in the daemon's source code to force it to use
high-numbered ports as well. All in all, this approach will probably be
faster than fixing the old patches so they work with the current code
base .. unless someone's already done the work.

What you want is a guest user. See the guest howto referenced from the
FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Has anyone had any experience in compiling wu-ftpd with digital unix 4.0,
using C2 security? I followed the instructions in the FAQ, but did not

I think you misunderstand what the ftpusers file is for. The daemon is
supposed to deny access to any user name which is listed in the ftpusers file.

>From the ftpd man page included with the source distribution :-

Ftpd authenticates users according to four rules.
1) The user name must be in the password data base, /etc/passwd, or whatever
is appropriate for the operating system, and the password must not be null.
In this case a password must be provided by the client before any file
operations may be performed.
2) The user name must not appear in the file /etc/ftpusers.
3) ... etc.

If you've put a username in this file and wu-ftpd is still allowing that
person to log in, it sounds like you have a separate problem...

To restrict users to a specific directory tree, you can use the guestgroup
feature, described in the ftpaccess man page, and the Guest How-To document
which is available on-line at
http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/guest-howto.html

Good luck !

Cheers, Bob

I think wu-ftpd works with S/KEY as well as SecurID, but for a short-term
solution, why not just implement ssh, the secure shell, which has the
ability to copy files from one host to another, requiring both user and
host authentication.

Hi,

I have solved the problem by compiling the package myself.
SITE EXEC works now fine.

Thanks for your response.

(Hey - the reply is only about a month late!) :)

I had a case where I needed to do this. I did it in a kludge
fashion, and I seem to remember someone having done it in a much more
elegant fashion.

This version only limits people per connection - you can't set overall
limits (so no info is shared between processes as to what you
are doing). I seem to remember someone doing stuff that sorted this
out so that you could specify overall bandwidth per class.

I have been running this on ftp.is.co.za for a loong time. It's running
linux - your milage will vary.

I am afraid I am on my way home, so I don't have time to
make a patch :( I have some other yucky gunge in this source.

To find my patches, look at ftpd.c - search for 'oskar'.

ftp://ftp.is.co.za/private/oskar/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-15.speed.tar.gz

If there is actual demand for this I'll create a real patch. I'll also
try and find the old patch that does this in a nice way.

Hi! I'm new in the list. I was trying to make ftpd more secure, creating
a file /etc/ftpdir with users and directories there, and applying chroot
to those directories when the user logs on (like if they were anonymous
users, but with a special root for each user). I modified ftpd.c and it
worked well in AIX, but it didn't work in SCO r5. When it tries to
create the socket, it calls open("/dev/socksys"...) and it fails because
I have already changed the root, and the file /dev/socksys doesn't exist
any more.
Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance,

Check out the guest howto in the FAQ, it will answer most of your
questions. There are system-specific instructions in the FAQ as well.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

** FIXES IN THIS RELEASE**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 313 from Thomas Palmieri <[email protected]> reports a problem
with the handling of standard error messages from programs called during
the file conversion process. This has been fixed in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 570 from Ian Willis <[email protected]> offers a possible fix for ticket
313. This fix is included in this release. Preliminary testing indicates
that this does indeed fix ticket 313.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 578 from Theo Van Dinter <[email protected]> reported a problem where
ftpd would exit with signal 11. This has been fixed in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 587 from Piete Brooks <[email protected]> notes that RFC 931
calls will fail due to wu-ftpd failing to bind to the correct address on
multi-homed hosts. His suggested fix to authuser.c is included in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 588 and 589 from Steven Boswell <[email protected]> offered a fix for
processing of the %U directive when the user is unknown. This is included in
this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 599 from Greg Sylvain <[email protected]> and Ticket 687 from
Eiji Kuramoto <[email protected]> provided a series of patches to address
the frequent issue concerning what "cd ~" should do. This functionality has
now been implemented using a different approach. The alternate behavior can be
obtained by defining ALTERNATE_CD in the root-level config.h file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 603 from Christos Zoulas <[email protected]> contained the changes
necessary for s/key support on NetBSD. These are untested, but are included
in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 608 from Ian Willis <[email protected]> notes there are problems in the
"limit" processing that were introduced in beta-16. It also fixes some
output formatting for ftpwho.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 609 from Ian Willis <[email protected]> notes that ftpcount does not
always work correctly due to permissions problems on the login database
file that ftpd maintains. He has provided some fixes for this problem which
are included in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 614 from Paul Borman <[email protected]> provided a variety of patches
for BSD/OS including support for BSD authentication. These changes are
included in this release. Paul claims that this should work on FreeBSD as
well, but I have not altered the FreeBSD configuration to make use of this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 620 from Ian Willis <[email protected]> notes ftpcmd.y does not have
Null checking in certain places. The changes he has suggested are included.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 626 from Ian Willis <[email protected]> offered a change to address some
misplaced or missing calls to alarm(0). This patch is included in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 640 from Gjermund Sxrseth <[email protected]> noted a documentation
error in describing the impact chroot has on hard links. This error has been
corrected in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 642 from Emil Isberg <[email protected]> provided a small fix
to the "build" script to make it format the error message properly when
multiple compile targets are provided.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 631 from Jorg Bielak <[email protected]>, Ticket 644 from Greg
<[email protected]> and Ticket 692 from Brian O'Neill <[email protected]>
says that there is a problem in the output of the ftpcount command. This has
been addressed in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 647 from Paul Forgey <[email protected]> noted that NO_PRIVATE was
not explicitly defined or undefined in config.h. This is now corrected.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 652 from Duncan McEwan <[email protected]> offered an alternative
strategy for using bigcrypt() on C2 Security on Dec OSF/1. This is included
in this release (though untested since I don't have that Operating System).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 658 from Rob Parry <[email protected]> suggested that
_LARGE_FILES should not be defiend for AIX 4.2 builds. I have changed the
config.h file for aix to do this for AIX 4.2. I don't have AIX, so I don't
know if this will work, but it's in there.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 662 from John Schulien <[email protected]> offered some changes to make it
easier to compile of AIX 4.2. I don't have AIX, but have included them in
this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 674 from Marc Evans <[email protected]> send some changes for
DEC UNIX. These are included, but are untested since I don't have DEC UNIX.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 683 from Christer Holgersson <[email protected]> noted
that the home directory finding routing in glob.c would not return the
right stuff when the "/./" convention is used for guest users. This is
fixed in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 685 from Eiji Kuramoto <[email protected]> noted a problem with
the STAT command (see ticket 706) when in Passive mode. This is fixed in this
release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 704 from Blayne Puklich <[email protected]> noted that on SGI
initsetproctitle causes problems. I don't have an SGI to test the fix on,
but I have attempted to address it in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 705 from Ofer Licht <[email protected]> noted that wu_logwtmp does
not include the username when a logout record is written. He provided some
patches to change this. They are included in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 706 from Kirk Shipley <[email protected]> offered up some more
portability changes for HP/UX, which are included. Additionally, he provided
some bug reports concerning the output from the STAT command (when a data
connection exists) and on initsetproctitle. These changes are included in
this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 710 from David R. Linn <[email protected]> lamented that SITE
CHMOD would accept values greater than 777. Now. you can. Just define
UNRESTRICTED_CHMOD in the root-level config.h file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 718 from David Quarterman <[email protected]>, Ticket 732 from
Jim Stosick <[email protected]>, Ticket 738 from David R. Linn
<[email protected]>, Ticket 739 from Glenn Matthew Gebhart
<[email protected]>, Ticket 740 from Maurice Richard <[email protected]>
and Ticket 756 from Shoichi Shibata <[email protected]> noted that
Solaris 2.5.1 on sparc would not correctly determine if the snprintf familiy
of library routines were to be linked from the C library or from the support
library. This version corrects that problem.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 722 from Laurent FACQ <[email protected]>, Ticket 723 from Randy
Blahut <[email protected]>, Ticket 724 from Greg Waugh
<[email protected]>, Ticket 728 from Rodrigo Costa Colossi
<[email protected]>, Ticket 731 from Andy Igoshin <[email protected]>, Tickets 733
and 749 from Simone Castellaneta <[email protected]>, Ticket 750 from Jose
Santiago <[email protected]>, Ticket 752 from Stephen Costaras
<[email protected]>, Ticket 754 from Roscinante <[email protected]>, Ticket
757 from Nicholas Crawford <[email protected]>, Ticket 760 from Jorg Bielak
<[email protected]> and Ticket 762 from Uri <[email protected]> noted that
Linux releases other than RedHat 5.0 running kernels with versions greater
than 2.0.31 would not compile properly. I believe this has been fixed in this
release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 725 from Syunji NAGASIMA <[email protected]> offered a fix
for an "off by one" problem in the "limit" stanza of the ftpaccess file when
specific times are specified. That fix is included.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 729 from Richard Allen <[email protected]> provided some fixes to make it
easier to compile on HP/UX 10. These are includes, but I have no way to
test them since I don't have HP/UX.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 736 from Joshua Goodall <[email protected]> offered a change that
would log information when a transfer data connection comes from somewhere
other than the address of the control connection.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 737 from C.J. Jardine <[email protected]> pointed out some small bugs
in the software. Four of his fixes are included here. One of his changes
relates to the ALTERNATE_CD definition described in ticket 599. A second one
permits the daemon to make use of the -A option to /bin/ls when on Solaris 2.
A third change was to add "exit(0);" to the end of the ftpshut.c file. Finally,
the wrong error message would be returned when a write fails (during a PUT).
This is also fixed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 745 from DeWitt Clinton <[email protected]> suggested that something
more explicit be said about the impact of the existance of the shutdown
message file on the operational status of the server. I have added some
more information about this to the NOTES file.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 746 from Joe Gross <[email protected]> notes that a variable does not
get properly defined if UPLOAD is not defined in config.h. His fix is included
in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 753 from Stephen Costaras <[email protected]> suggested some changes
in the installation process for Linux. Some of his suggestions are included
in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 758 from Chris K. Young <[email protected]> notes that the response
to the MKD command is not RFC 959 compliant. This fix is included in this
release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 764 from Iouri Kharon <[email protected]> noted that a number of
responses given by wu-ftpd were not compliant with RFC 959. I have audited
this in the software and corrected as many as I can find. I welcome more
bug reports about this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 767 from Paul Whittenburg <[email protected]> had a number of suggestions
for improvements in the build process for Solaris. his ideas have been
included in this release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ticket 775 from Jean-Francois Monnet <[email protected]> offered some
patches for addressing the "cd ~" issue. These patches are not included but
the issue has been addressed with the ALTERNATE_CD option.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morning...

I may be missing something in the docs, but, from the docs, I can
set the permissions on a file being upload using the 'upload' directive,
but I can't seem to change the permissions on the directory.

An application that we are using here (Norton Textra) needs to
create directories of 777 and files of 666 ... but I can't seem to figure
out how to change the directories :(

Any help is much appreciated...

Thanks...

Marc,

You'll need to check out Greg Lundberg's VR1 and VR2 patches.
Or you can just get Andy Church's patch at:

ftp://achurch.dragonfire.net/wu-ftpd/mkdir.patch

However, I believe Andy's had a typo in it and it might be best to use
Greg's patch for now. The only problem with the patch is that although it
adds an entry in the ftpaccess file for directory mode, the directory will
be owned by whoever created it. This may not be a problem for you if your
ftp admin has nice privileges on the server. However, if the admin for
the ftp site can only administer things via ftp, then you'll need to add a
'chown' statement in the source file right after the directory is created
to take advantage of that feature. It took some working with Greg and
Andy for me to get all of the patches applied and working, but I have
things going if you need some assistance. I applied the patches by hand
to the newvirt code, but I belive Greg and Andy's patches are for the
straight source of beta 15 or 17.

Hello,
as I'm not planning to release a new version of BeroFTPD every couple of
days, but I still want to make bugfixes available as soon as they're
known, I've created a new ftp directory for (minor) bugfixes that (IMO)
don't justify a new version number.

These fixes are, as a unified, gzipped diff, at

ftp://ftp.aachen.linux.de/pub/BeroFTPD/fixes

(anyone willing to mirror this?)

The patch currently found there fixes the autoconfiguration of systems
needing <sys/time.h>.

The patch I got from Greg I am using for virtual FTP's but I believe it
can bet used anywhere.

I put a line like below in my ftpaccess file and it makes the owner of the
file whoever i tell it to be

upload /home/wixom/ftp.wixomproducts.com /incoming yes wixom vwww 0600 dirs

so in this case it makes the user wixom and group vwww

I have just released BeroFTPD 1.1.0 (EXPERIMENTAL!) to
ftp://ftp.aachen.linux.de/pub/BeroFTPD

Since I'm using a linux-kernel like version number system, all 1.1.x
releases will be BETA - if you need a known stable version, stay with
1.0.x.
Since 1.1.x versions are for testing new, experimental features, now is a
perfect time for feature suggestions - send them to
[email protected].

Changes in 1.1.0 (since 1.0.7 with fixes):
Internal ls command to avoid the overhead + security leaks caused by
starting an external command.

WARNING:
The ls implementation needs the glob() function, which is not defined on
all systems, to work properly.
If glob() is not defined, the standard uses ("ls", "ls file", "ls *") will
work, but things like "ls *.c" will fail (as in, simply claim there's no
match). This will be fixed in subsequent 1.1.x releases.

Just for the record, that typo is fixed, and the patch, along with the
other patches in that directory, have been updated to apply against clean
b17 sources.

Subject: Re: Use of chroot in SCO r5
X-Mailer: SCO OpenServer Mail Release 5.0
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

You need to create all the same device files, libraries and binaries
under the chroot that you would when setting up anonymous FTP,
/dev/socksys can be created by executing as root:
ls /dev/socksys | cpio -p chrootdir

Note in SCO OpenServer 5 /dev/socksys is required by COFF binaries,
if you produce an ELF ftpd binary it won't be needed (see the comment
at the top of src/makefiles/Makefile.sco on how to build ELF).

You can achieve a chroot for users without modifying ftpd.c, see the
guestgroup access capability on the ftpaccess manual page and the
guest howto: ftp://ftp.fni.com/pub/wu-ftpd/guest-howto

| Hi! I'm new in the list. I was trying to make ftpd more secure, creating

| to those directories when the user logs on (like if they were anonymous
| users, but with a special root for each user). I modified ftpd.c and it
| worked well in AIX, but it didn't work in SCO r5. When it tries to
| create the socket, it calls open("/dev/socksys"...) and it fails because
| I have already changed the root, and the file /dev/socksys doesn't exist
| any more.
| Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance,

I unpacked all the stuff witha Linux-RedHat Alpha ;-) and i put everything
online at this URL
ftp://ftp.unina.it/pub/Unix/packages/xferstats/
there you can find the .rpm files, the archive .tar, and also a untarred

Hope the author is not complaining about this...

Can anyone help ?

I type build lnx as described in the instuctions and get screen fulls of
error messages.

I have checked the FAQ and applied the patch to Makefile.lnx as described.

Still no joy !
Any ideas ?

Cheers for now,

Jason McNeil

Hi!

I just looked into the patch for beta-17 version and
don't see any instruction on how to load the patch.

Can someone please send me the instruction...

Thanks,
-Pat

Just for the record, that typo is fixed, and the patch, along with the
other patches in that directory, have been updated to apply against clean
b17 sources.

Subject: Statically linked beta 18?

Hi all

I just compiled and installed beta 18 on my MkLinux box. I noticed
that unlike the previous betas on Linux platform, beta 18 ftpd binary is
now statically linked. Is there any security related concern that prompted
this change?

I removed the -static flag from the src/makefiles/Makefile.lnx and
recompiled it as a dynamically linked binary. Should I be worried?

Thanks.

No, you've done a good thing.

Some (confused) people think that dynamic binaries are a security
problem. In truth, the reverse is true, because of the added (and often
neglected) maintenance burden of static binaries.

EG, sun just found a bunch of security holes in their "nsl" library. If
you'd statically linked a bunch of security programs against it, you'd
now have to relink all of them, and more than that, you'd have to KNOW
to relink all of them (and many people won't bother, or won't know, or
won't remember how many apps they statically linked, and you can't just
ldd or odump to find out).

If the programs are dynamically linked, you just patch the library and
you're done.

Well, that's quite true. However, since beta 18 Linux makefile had static
linking as the default, I wonder if from now on that's going to be the
case. Perhaps, if wu-ftpd authors can be persuaded to use autoconf, it
would be possible to select static or dynamic linking and many other
options and generate appropriate makefiles. That would be more elegant.

There will be an autoconfiguration mechanism in the first release of the
wu-ftpd daemon after the 2.4.2 release. See the web pages at academ for
more information on this:
http://www.academ.com/academ/wu-ftpd/index.html

The Linux static change was suggested by Stephen Costaras <[email protected]>.
Perhaps you could ask him directly why he suggested it.

I wasn't planning on announcing this to the wu-ftpd list, but because of the
overwhelming response to 2.00, I decided to go ahead and spam you once more,
keeping track of who mails me this time.

Changes:

- Fixed a bug that would cause the "From <day> to <day>" header to be
incorrect.
- Added a section to the configure script and rearranged the #include order
of parselog.c to fix FreeBSD compilation.
- Added trailing </HTML> to reports (oops!)
- Added trailing carriage return to appease vi
- Included the JPGs for the graphs in the RPM, which I forgot to do in the
first release.

Since it does generate HTML that breaks the spec, as well as errorneous
headers in certain cases, it is recommended that you upgrade.

I've added a mipseb RPM to the download directory, but was unable to access my
account to generate an alpha RPM. I'll try to get one made in the near
future. I've updated web site and the online revision history as well, which
I neglected to do after 2.00

I was amazed to see how many people ended up actually using xferstats, thank
you, your comments are very kind :)

Beta 17 worked on SCO OpenServer 5, in Beta 18 code was added inside
#ifdef SecureWare which is not appropriate on OSR5. A simple fix is
to make the following change to ftpd.c:

1492c1492
< #ifdef SecureWare
---
> #if defined(SecureWare) && !defined(_SCO_DS)

I suspect the changes inside #ifdef SecureWare are only appropriate
to a particular system (SECUREOSF ?), the real fix would be replacing
the #ifdef SecureWare with #ifdef SECUREOSF (or the appropriate define).

Also note that when compiling on SCO OpenServer 5, making the changes
described at the start of src/makefiles/Makefile.sco to produce ELF
binaries significantly reduces their size.

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

Hello;

I am experiencing very slow authentication with my wu-ftpd, and was
wondering if anyone else may have seen this too; I am running wu-ftpd
under Digital Unix 3.2G; The machine is an AlphaServer 1000, with 512
megs of ram. There is typically very little load, so I don't believe this
is a system resources problem. This machine functions as a staging
server, so there are generally 10-20 users logged in at any time; Our
/etc/passwd contains approx 1600 lines, /etc/group 1500 lines, and our
wu-ftpd ftpaccess file contains about 900 lines. Most of these lines are
just guestgroup entries, as we chroot all of our ftp accounts. The server
runs fast otherwise; When I ftp in, I get a login prompt immediatly;
However, after I enter my login and press <cr>, I usually have to wait
45sec-2mins to get a password prompt. However, from this point on, the
server is lightning quick. Any ideas? Does this have to do with the
large password file? Any ideas to speed this up?

Thanks in advance,
Erik

This is a known problem with the design of the server and the size of the
passwd and group files.

To work arround it, you should reduce the number of guestgroup lines in
ftpaccess. I find there is seldom reason to use more than one or two
lines; all my normal shell users are members of the same guestgroup (with
UNIX permissions used to keep them away from each other's files), and a
few guestgroup entries for true guests (customers of my customers). The
advantage is that the daemon needs to parse fewer lines from the ftpaccess
file and, therefore, make fewer checks against the /etc/passwd and
/etc/group files. Another workarround is to patch the server to use
numeric IDs in the ftpaccess file, which should speed up the parsing the
/etc/group accesses as well.

ISTR there was quite a bit of discussion about this subject a long time
ago on the mailing list, and that a few patches were proposed. You could
go back through the mailing list archives for additional ideas.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

How many of those are upload lines? If you have more than a couple
dozen, then with that size /etc/passwd it's going to take a long time to
process them--wu-ftpd does a getpwnam() and getgrnam() for every such line.
To speed that up, get my upload directive patch from:

ftp://achurch.dragonfire.net/wu-ftpd/upload.patch

which allows you to enter numeric UIDs in the format "%NNN" instead of user
and group names; the numeric values are (of course) parsed much more
quickly. See README.patches in the same directory for more information.

After looking more closely at the source, let's try that again:

>I am experiencing very slow authentication with my wu-ftpd, and was

Try ftp://achurch.dragonfire.net/wu-ftpd/guestgroup.patch; it does
more or less the same thing as the upload.patch I mentioned a few minutes
ago, as long as your users have the proper group as their GID entry in
/etc/passwd. I'll take a closer look at those functions later.

My mistake. I did the test compile of beta-18 earlier in my regression testing
than I thought. I will note this bug on the bug page. I have reproduced it.

These do not look like "defunct" processes, since they are showing
recent start times, not 1/1/70 GMT. I would tend to think these are
FTP sessions that are left hanging. How is your FTP service being used?

There is a known problem with where the ftp process does not die. There has
been a patch or two to that imbed alarms in the transfer code. Many of us
including myself use a simple shell script that cleans up the processes some
number of times a day. I do it once a day.

I have spent about a day and half trying to allow an anonymous user

to get results back from the 'dir' command but still no luck. So

far this is what I have tried:

Obtained newest wu-ftpd (beta 18)

Compiled for my platform (RedHat Linux 4.2 Kernel 2.0.30 on i486)

<paraindent><param>left</param>Several compilation problems because I
didn't have a copy of

libc.a

</paraindent>Installed the binaries

Obtained a version of the GNU file utilities (fileutils-3.16)

Modified the Makefiles to add -static linker option

Compiled

Checked ls with ldd

<paraindent><param>left</param>Still says that it depends on libc.so.5 =>
/lib/libc.so.5.3.12

</paraindent>Installed the ls and dir binaries anyway

Still the 'dir' command returns no output when I log in as anonymous.

This happens from a command line ftp, a GUI ftp client, or a web browser.

I also notice that I can remove ls and dir from my ~ftp/bin directory

with no effect on this behavior. It seems that these binaries are not

even being used.

If I do a /usr/sbin/chroot ~/ftp/bin ls I get

execvp: No such file or directory

Same for dir

This happens with the GNU binaries as well as the original RedHat ones.

I'm lost! Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

This is probably where you are hung up. Work with fileutils until you
get ld to show that it is staticly linked and install that one.

The correct thing to try would be

/usr/sbin/chroot ~ftp /bin/ls

By the way, you can also use a dynamically linked ls command and put a
copy of libc.a into the chroot environment as well.

Again, they don't qualify as actual "zombies" until they've exited, and
their process IDs have not yet been returned by a parent's call to
wait(). However you describe it, though, your statement is correct:
the processes would stay around for as long as there is an active
session or an inactive session that has not yet expired the inactivity
timeout period.

I don't know the irix system, but I would expect it has an inetd.conf,
or something much like it. Why not set your inactivity timeout
parameter to the ftp daemon to be more aggressive than the default 15
minutes?

In Solaris, you would have this line in your inetd.conf:

ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd -t60

This would give you a 60-second timeout for inactivity, rather than
the default 15 minutes.

Irix users, any corrections or stipulations to the above?

I'm a day or two away from releaseing beta-18 versions of my patches.
beta-17 versions are available at my ftp site: ftp://ftp.vr.net/ in the
pub directory.

Or use Andy's patch, which ISTR he's already updated for beta-18.

Patch applied, but I must be missing something, as it isn't
working :(

I added an entry of:

upload /home/centre/marc * yes marc centre 0666 dirs 0777

but it continues to create as 755 ... and I do have it running
from inetd.conf with -a, so that it uses ftpaccess...

My chroot point is /home/users
My home directory is /home/users/./lundberg
I tried
upload /home/users /lundberg* yes lundberg vrnet 600 dirs 771
and it did not chgrp from lundberg to vrnet nor did it set the mode to
771. The umask is 022 and it created the directory 755. This upload was
not matched. So I tried
upload /home/users/lundberg * yes lundberg vrnet 600 dirs 771
and it worked just fine when I created a directory.

I'd say the problem is a subtle syntax problem, possibly related to where
you're chroot'ing to and the home directory in one of the passwd files.
What version of wu-ftpd are you running? If beta-18, did you enable
ALTERNATE_CD?

Subject: crash of ftpd-2.4
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hi netters,

I have installed wu-ftpd-2.4-academ on BSDI BSD/OS 2.1, added nessesary
records to services and inetd.conf, restart inetd after testing.

It seems all OK, but nevertheless I got error: tcpd down after
connection from any site. I can login to ftp server, get ONE file
(by get or mget command), and CONNECTION CLOSED :( Later I can login
once more, get once more ONE file, and connection close again.

When I compiled httpd, I got error with redefined readpath() function,
and disable this function (delete #include <stdlib.h> on srs/config.h)
on system - server has crash after one connection, as I wrote above.
OK, I disable this function in source of ftpd (removed it from
readpath.c), and used system 'readpath()' function - with all the same
result..

Can somebody help me?

More thanks,
Oleg.

sorry my English.

Yes, sort of. All counts and maximums depend on which class the user is
in, and the class is unknown before login (since wu-ftpd takes
realuser/anonymous/guestuser as a variable for calculating which class a
user is in).

Start by getting the current version:
wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18.tar.Z

Then check the FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

After this changes ftpd compiled successfilly, but crash after

I thought of this too. But I dont know how it could be confused by my class. Here
is the part of my /etc/ftpaccess file. Sorry, I should have added my ftpaccess
entries in my original posting.

loginfails 3

#class local real,guest,anonymous *.gc.ca 0.0.0.0
class local real,guest *.gc.ca 127.0.0.1
class remote real,guest *

#limit remote 100 SaSu|Any1800-0600 /etc/msg/msg.toomany
limit local 30 Any /etc/msg/msg.toomany
limit remote 60 Any /etc/msg/msg.toomany

Now, if I ftp localhost... I still get the symptom.

Thanks

Works for me, but if you prefer a directory you can read:

ftp://achurch.dragonfire.net/wu-ftpd/

The filename is the same.

To reiterate: Since wu-ftpd *can* base class distinctions on the login you
use, it does *not* figure out which class you're in until you have given
it the login.

There is no artificial intelligence in wu-ftpd (for as far as I know) so
it can't second-guess that it already has enough information to determine
what class you're in.

yacc is either not on your system or not in your path statement.
If the latter then fix your path environment. If the former then
get bison as a replacement from GNU, build it, and then edit the
hpx makefile to use bison rather than yacc. Use one of the
makefiles that use bison rather than yacc as a guide to which
flags to set to make bison behave like yacc.

It seems that the way that wu-ftp 2.6.0(1) logs to the wtmp file under Linux
2.0.34 (Slackware-3.3) doesn't work correctly. The output is basically the
following:

<username> ftp ��^L Wed Jul 8 16:07 - 16:07 (00:00)

And, of course makes a series of beeps and doesn't show the log. Does
anyone know how to fix this so it logs correctly. Any help is greatly
appreciated regarding this matter.

Thanks in advance,

Daniel S. Cohen

I hope you don't mind the question. But what I'd really like to know
is what is wu-ftpd?..Is it some kink of new way to do ftp or what.
If you have some kind of manual and you can send it to me I'd
appreciate it.

Why does %M produce (Max unlimited) on the login banner?

Stats Solaris 2.5.1/BETA 18.......

Part of what the sever generates for the welcome banner..

220-Hello localhost, there are 0 (max unlimited) users logged in at the moment.

Part of the banner....

Hello %R, there are %N (max %M) users logged in at the moment.

Am I missing something obvious ?

wu.ftpd and all the in.*d daemons on my Linux box all complain about
a "getpeername" error when I try to use them. wu.ftpd simply dies
and puts that message in the syslog. (Other daemons will print a
similar message to the screen).

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Off-hand, I'd say you've got a problem in resolv.conf; check your DNS and
resolver setup.

What's the statement within the ftpaccess file that generates a message
after an anonymous login? I'm familar with the banner directive as well as
the message directive. My current line has the following entry:

message /usr/local/etc/msgs/welcome.msg login

The above is for regular user logins. What other keyword do I use to enable
the same message for anonymous logins?

- Thanks In Advance.

Subject: wu-ftpd syslog.c for HPUX
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I am working with Beta 18 compiling for HP-UX 9 and HP-UX 10.
Although I can use the standard HP-UX syslog functions, I have been
trying to use the alternates in syslog.c because ultimately I want to
make modifications. I cannot get the alternate syslog functions to work.
In the function openlogfd(), the statement:
if (err = connect(logfd, (struct sockaddr *)&ad, sizeof ad))
connect() fails with the error: Socket operation on non-socket.

Has anyone else had this problem with the wu-ftpd syslog.c; any
suggestions how to fix it?

The full syntax is

message <path> {<when> {<class> ...}}

What's not obvious is that <path> is relative to the current root. So,
put the message in ~ftp/etc/welcome.msg then use the following (assuming
~ftp is /home/ftp):

class anon anonymous *
class real real *
message /home/ftp/etc/welcome.msg login real
message /etc/welcome.msg login anon

Since I also have guest users, I can copy the welcome.msg to the chroot'd
/etc directories (/home/users/etc, in my case), then add:

class guest guest *
message /etc/welcome.msg login guest

You will note that it can take quite a few classes if you want to
diferentiate based the user's on IP address as well. A little planning,
however, in the layout of the directory structure (especially for guest
users) can help immensely.

Did you create the sockect with something like:
logfd = socket( PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, protocol);
If not, you will need to create the socket before using it in a connect
call.

problem to solve :

i need two complete seperat ftp-server, each on has
anonymous access and real-user access. like this :
a) server is ftpone.domain.ch 10.10.10.5
anonymous access goes to /ftp/one only read access
realaccess (listed in /etc/passwd) are going to /ftp/one (read and write
access)
b) server is ftptwo.domain.ch 10.10.10.6
anonymous access goes to /ftp/two only read access
realaccess (listed in /etc/passwd) are going to /ftp/two (read and write
access)

and all this is installed on on server. i just have downloaded
beta 18 and compiled it, without any problems.

I have followed your how-to on guest-accouns, and i run into the
same problem all the time: the user does not seem to have access
to a /bin/ls, the result: no files viewed. I can see that the user
is in the right dir (mput works) but no files are listed to the user.
I have in my pass the following:

student:x:630:100::/web/www.student.dk/html/./:/bin/noshell

(noshell is a homemade shell, like ftponly)

/html contains:

a bin dir
a etc dir

both with chmod 111.

ls is in the /bin with a chmod 111 also.

in /etc:

the files passwd and group look like this:

root:x:0:0::/:/bin/noshell
student:fjbXmb0ZLmbn6:630:100::/web/www.student.dk/html/./:/bin/noshell

and group:

root::0:root
users::100:student

What could be wrong?

Regards and in forward thanks..

This is a FAQ. You're missing part of the required setup for ls; what
exactly is missing depends upon the system you're using.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

I have a 2.4.2-beta16 server running on a Solaris 2.5.1 platform that for
the last 6 - 8 months has been running just fine without any problems.
However, after a clean power down and restart (doing some other unrelated
maintenance in the area) all the guest groups are now denied access with a
'550 Can't set guest privileges' message. Any ideas on what might have been
impacted that would affect this. I've checked the FAQ's etc, but haven't
found any ideas yet. Any thoughts?

TIA

Hi there!

I have problem.
Our users has some access to our ftp.

Has groups "wwwusers","wwwall","local","academ" in /et/group.
- wwwusers has 100 users
- wwwall has 300 users
- local has 10 users
- academ has 500 users
These groups has be "guest", i.e. "/./".

Example of our ftpaccess:

guestgroup ftp wwwall wwwusers local academ

autogroup ftpadm admin
autogroup www users
autogroup tfi users

class admin real icc.ru ccsoan.irkutsk.su freemail.icc.ru
class users real dima.icc.ru .il
class local guest 10.8.0.*
class wwwusers guest 195.46.97.141 195.46.97.142 195.206.40.4
194.206.40.* 195.206.46.*
class academ guest 62.76.19.* 62.76.23.*
class wwwall guest *
class all anonymous *

For example, if user of group "local" cannot enter from 10.1.0.1,
then he can enter as wwwall, because he has "guest"... Really?

Question, how can I separate access for these users?

Thanx...

Subject: AIX authenticate() support for wu-ftpd Beta 18
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hey all,

Here are some diffs to allow AIX to use the authenticate() function
which allows wuftp to authenticate with DCE/AFS/kerberos/Skey whatever. This is
similar to PAM support on Sun..(it think Pluggable authentication modules).

Change #1 - existing authenticate() to myauthenticate()

Change #2 - Added aix_authenticate function with does login for AIX
authenticate function.

Let me know if there is a problem.. The authenticate() function supports
multiple passwords
for complete authentication. From what I see FTP protocol only supports 1
password,
1 username and 1 account name... So when authenticate() wants another password
I just
return Invalid login.. Is there a better way to handle it?

I'd like use the limit command in /etc/ftpaccess.

I have defined:

/etc/ftpaccess
limit remote 10 Any0600-0930 /etc/ftpmsg/limit.msg

when the computer time is the range 06.00-09.30 then i get the
follows:

# ftpcount
Service class remote - 0 users ( 10 maximum)

that's seem's correct.

But when the time is 09.31 and more, then get i the output:

# ftpcount
Service class remote - 0 users (no maximum)

I want limit the class of users, but this obvious doesn't.

What is wrong ?

Thank you for the help, best regards

Olaf

You have set no limit outside the given hours. To set a limit 'otherwise',
add a line _below_ the one specifying time, like

limit remote 25 Any /etc/ftpmsg/limit.msg

Anyone logging in who is a member of the Unix groups ftp wwwall wwwusers
local and academ is a guest user instead of a real user; they'll be
chroot'd.

This has to do with Unix permissions; class admin gets Unix group ftpadm
privileges. Class users getsUnix group www permissions. The autogroup
for tfi is ignored because class users has already matched the line above.

Real users .. those who are *NOT* members of the Unix groups listed on the
guestgroup .. logging in from these sites are members of the class admin
and therefore will received Unix group ftpadm privileges as well as their
real Unix user privileges.

Same here, but the users get Unix group www privileges

Guest users .. that is real Unix users who are members of the Unix groups
listed on the guestgroup .. from this segment of the private network are
class local.

Guest users from these segments are class wwwusers.

Guest users from these segments are class academ

> class wwwall guest *

All other guest users are class wwwall.

All anonymous users are class 'all'.

NB: real users who are not guest and do not come from one of the listed
domains are denied access since the have no class.

> For example, if user of group "local" cannot enter from 10.1.0.1,

A real Unix user who is a member of the Unix group local loggin in from
10.1.0.1 is in class wwwall because the user is guest and not in one of
the previous network segments, the '*' catches this, yes.

> Question, how can I separate access for these users?

What do you mean?

Check /etc/inetd.conf to make sure you're using the ftpaccess file; is
there a -a on the command line? Did the Unix group(s) which determine
that they are guest users get changed in some way?

I'd say your 'unrelated maintenance' was, in fact, related. Go through
what you did and see what step may have effected the ftp site.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1460.8)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I will like to setup our anonymous users to chroot to specific directories.
We will alias our ip address to several domains and will like that anonymous
users could chroot directly to their own and could not browse to the other
directories. Example (notice exact ip address)

Domain1.com 163.154.234.60
Domain2.com 163.154.234.60
Domain3.com 163.154.234.60

I will have 3 directories example: /ftp/domain1
/ftp/domain2
/ftp/domain3

And we will like users to be able to extract information from this
directories as anonymous users chrooting directly on their own directories,
also they should not be able to see information of the other directories.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance

Elena

Read wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18/VIRTUAL.FTP.SUPPORT

If you need finer control, check out NEWVIRT at the resource center

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Read VIRTUAL.FTP.SUPPORT in the release kit. If you need finer control,
NEWVIRT, available at the resource center, will do what you want. There
are alternate solutions referenced (I believe) from the FAQ which handle
the issue by hacking inetd.

Your problem with chroot and ls is a FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

hi wuftpd developers,

i hope i got the right email.

my problem was:

i have some virtual webservers on my machine. one is for examle:
homepages.ibsd.net.
i like to set up a virtual ftp server with its own password file for the
virtual ip homepages.ibsd.net.

my solution

i added virtual ftp-account support to the wu.ftpd. it is possible to
specify a seperat password file and a user for any virtual machine. in
this password file contains usernames, passwords and directories. all
users logging onto the virtual machine get permissions of the specified
username for all accounts of the virtual server.

examle:

i added an account named "home" to the system.
i specify a password file under the home dir of home. in this password
file is a virtual user named "user1". the home directory in this
password file is set to "/home/home/user1"

to deny access for the virtual user (user1 is logging in) to the files
of the specified username (home), the root directory is limited to what
is given in the password file for the virtual user. (the virual user has
the specified user-access but is limited to his directory)

in this case: if user1 loggs onto the virtual ip, the root path for
user1 is /home/home/user1 the permissions are "home.users"

the only problem is: because of the rootpath limited to the virtual
user's dir, there is no access to the system's /bin/ls. therefore the
user doesn't get a directory.

the "home"-user can copy a bin and a lib dir with ls and libs to
/home/home/user1/*. i think there should be a better way for the wu.ftpd
to get access to the system's /bin/ls while having changed the root dir
to the /home/home/user1. i tried to change back to root permissions
while doing LIST command, but the chroot("/") will not change back to
the system's root. it will stay within the user1 dir.

i don't know if there is a good way of solving the problem. anyway i
think this is a good new feature. if you like to add this feature to the
wu.ftpd source, let me know. this feature can be enabled via #define
switch.

Sorry to bother y'all, but a simple question.

Where can it get it? I've only seen a couple of references
to the code, and when I try it, it fails. Is there some sort
of authentication, group, permission that I have to get to
be 'part of' the testing for this release?

I like the idea of having better software, and I've got
serveral test areas that might flush out any weaknesses.

Any suggestions for me are welcomed.

nope, but use an ftp client instead of a web browser, it'll work a lot
better.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Anyone attempting to get the software must becoming from a site that
has their DNS stuff done correctly. That means that in-addr and forward
lookup match.

That could be the problem here.

Hello,

Here are the few lines at the beginning of the /usr/local/etc/ftpaccess
file :

.....................

But when wy local users connect to the ftp server , they are considered as

Service class guest:

Some ideas on this ?

Suggestion: Use some other names so you don't get confused.

class lcl read *.supelec.fr
class gst guest *
class ann anonymous *

Now, to your problem, local users (those on the same machine as the ftp
server) will be gst because they are not from any machine in the
supelec.fr domain name. They are from 'localhost'. So you need to say:

class lcl read *.supelec.fr localhost
class gst guest *
class ann anonymous *

Remember as well, that uses from machines on the local network(s) but
which are not DNS'd will not have the required domain name and will be
gst, so you may want to define a few IP-number based classes for them.

Sorry to take up bandwidth, but I am interested to know if anyone else is
getting spammed by this bullshit. I used to get this through the firewalls
list, but now it seems to be coming through [email protected]

Thanks.

It is coming from all over I am afraid but mainly through mailing
lists that maintain either a usenet crossfeed or a web archives.

Yes, and if you'd look at the headers it's coming via the mailing list.
I'm getting that spam from at least two different mailing lists, in fact.

When I try to login as anonymous, I give the name (anonymous or ftp),
then I put my password (email address), then I get the following
message:

550 Can't set guest privileges.

And logs me off ...

Logins with either a real or guest name is fine.

Any hints ?

Thanks,

Do you have a real user named 'ftp'? Check the FAQ as well.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Yes, Gregory, I have a real user FTP and it belongs to the FTP group. I'm
using a version I got at the debian ftp site and it was named as 2.4.2-27,
so I thought it was newer. What do you think ?

When I got to the ftp.academ.com site, there was the file
wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18.tar.Z
Also, the files
wu-ftpd-2.4-academ.tar.Z
wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z

How should I install all this ?

Thanks a lot !

X-Sender: [email protected]
X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.1 (16)

On sporadic occasions when someone coming in via a web ftp read, when a
'hot-spot' is selected using the mouse ( presumably pointing to a second
document to read ) a 'port connection refused' occurrs.
The message file gives :-
Jul 9 14:26:55 ftp ftpd[14955]: refused PORT 128.0.0.37,64697 from
172.16.0.252
If the user persists they may get a connection.

We are SunOS ftp 5.5.1 running on a Sparcstation 5.
It seems we are running in 'passive' mode. I know nothing about the ins and
outs
of 'active' and 'passive' mode but would like to find out more. For The
moment I
would like to ask if anyone knows the correc remedial action for the
current problem.

What I fail to understand is the simmple issus of weither my machine is
refusing, or is being refused a port. If it is my machine could there be
some limitation on the number of PORTS, or could it be a time-out problem
etc ?

Any help gratefully received :-)

ln -s /usr/bin/false /etc/ftponly

Then, add /etc/ftponly as a valid shell to you system configuration. In
AIX, you would add it to the 'shells' list in /etc/security/login.cfg.
I think other OS use something like /etc/shells or alike. The result is
that ftpd will allow you to login, but if you try to login otherwise,
e.g. via telnet, you'll get /usr/bin/false fired up as your 'shell',
which means you will be logged out again immediately.

I'm not sure what you mean here, but assume you mean someone's using a web
client to browse an ftp site and has clicked on one of the files in the
directory listing.

This message, 'refused PORT' comes from ftpcmd.y upon receipt of a PORT
command from the client. It is written to the system log and '500 Illegal
PORT command' is returned to the client when the client attempts to
specify a passive-mode port for a data-transfer connection, and the client
has not yet logged into the ftp site or has specified an IP number
different than the one from which the control connection originates.

Your machine is refusing to honor the PORT. The stock beta-18 daemon does
not limit the PORT port number, but does limit the IP address for the
PORT. While this could be a time-out issue, I'd look at other possible
causes first; for instance, are the users having problems all coming in
from the local machine? or from a firewall or proxy? If the IP numbers
are changing the daemon will refuse the PORT. Yes, it could also be a
time-out issue if the user is waiting 10 minutes or so (or whatever you've
set as the time-out) before clicking the filename, thet will have been
forced out but the web client may not recognize the fact.

One final thought: If everything else seems OK, check the return type for
the ntohs() function on your machine. The port number in your log message
above could be interpreted as a negative number if ntohs() returned an int
instead of an unsigned int. The compiler would generate a signed >
compare, which the port number given above would fail. The code (in
ftpcmd.y) is:

if (cliaddr.s_addr == his_addr.sin_addr.s_addr
&& ntohs(cliport) > 1023) {

This is a FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Hello all,

Could someone tell me if there is a timeline for a new version (not
beta) release
of wu-ftp? My clients are very reluctant to upgrade from a much older
version of wu-ftp becuase current releases are all beta's?

regards,
guy

Perhaps that is because they are accustomed to the concept of a beta in the MS

Most betas from quality groups like FreeBSD, Apache and Wu-ftp would be third

I made a typo in the previous message; I compiled the beta 18 version and
got the error, then reverted back to beta 16 to
correct it.

The current plan says that this version will become the "release" version
on or about September 1, 1998.

At that point, some small bug fixes will be made and the version number
will become 2.4.2.

The BLCMP FTP server is behind a firewall:- The clients are all coming in throu=
ghthe firewall.

A client will see the server as 194.80.17.40, whereas the server only
knows its self as 172.16.0.40. Reading between your lines this sounds
like
wu-ftp will not like this when asked to do a PORT command.

BTW are there any guidlines available for operating behind a firewall !

with so many people on the list getting pissed off with the spam, I sure
hope the owners/administrators would do something about it.

Hi,
I need to prevent SOME of my REAL users to send their password over a
network, this means, when the user put his passwd, ftpd should tell "You
don't have ftp service enabled" or something like this.(they should use
secure copy) It's possible because for anonymous ftp login it works
exactly this way. But I don't know how to setup this, can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

You are correct _if_ the firewall is actually a proxy. Proxies usually
handle connections just fine, but unless the proxy parses the control
stream (most don't) the PORT command will be passed though unchanged. The
daemon then sees the control connection as coming from the proxy but the
PORT specifying some other IP address.

> BTW are there any guidelines available for operating behind a firewall?

I'd take a look at moving the FTP daemon to a bastion host outside the
firewall or using some form of IP renumbering instead of a proxy to allow
access to the FTP site.

I was able to circumvent the problem by hardcoding '8192' in place of
blocksize in lines 2601 and 2601 of ftpd.c and recompiling,b ut I don't
know if this is an aix error or an wu-ftpd error.

Sounds like either an AIX problem or a problem with your hub/router. If
it's AIX, others should see it. If it's local hardware or networking
configuration, nobody else will see it.

I have installed wu-ftpd 2.4 version 18 on an HPUX 10.20 trusted system. I
have setup the ftpaccess file
With real users and anonymous users sharing class all.

Real users can ftp into the box and list file successfully. But anonymous
users can not. They always get
Same message Error 530 can't set guest privileges.

I have not setup any guestgroup on ftpaccess file.

# with so many people on the list getting pissed off with the spam, I sure
# hope the owners/administrators would do something about it.
#

And what would you like us to do ?

o Set the list so that only user can post ?

Easy for this spammer to get around. S/He/IT is already doing
just that on other lists that are restricted to user postings.

Problem for the user community since some of our help requests come
from people that are not members of the list but set the Reply-To:
accordingly. This was supposed to be a helpful place. Making it
harder for people to get information on how to fix their problem
is not very friendly.

o Moderate the list ?

Not going to happen since this is such a high traffic list and
I don't see any volunteers rushing forward simply to filter the
three or four spams we've had in nearly 5 years.

o Set up filters to reject the sites s/he/it posts from ?

This spammer posts rarely posts from the same site twice. This
approach then becomes a denial of service attack and a maintenance
nightmare.

o Scan the body of the message and not forward any message that has
Bull*sEye* in it ?

It might be possible but I'm not sure that the nice people at
Wash U who host the list need the additional load on their
systems or the administrative overhead of adding s/he/its
like this.

Open to suggestions here. Might want to send it to the list admins
instead of the list...

I find the best approach is to track down the ISP selling service to the
spammer and file complaints. Most ISPs have little tollerance and will
kick the fool out.

Many sites receiving this have been doing just that but since he never
spams from the same account and rarely the same ISP...

Check that the user 'ftp' is properly set up. You'll find the FAQ
helpful.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

I was wondering, after having gads of problems trying to build wu-ftpd on Irix
6.2, if anyone has some hints or has built wu-ftpd on irix, I'd love some
input.

TIA,

I hate to take up anymore of our time with an off-topic issue like this, but
I did a little research and found an interesting item. This is, apparently,
from the IETF mailing list, which has also been bombarded by WorldTouch:

If any of you live in LA and would also be interested in dropping off some
invoices at the spammer's homebase, I wholeheartedly encourage it. There's
more from that thread if anyone's interested.

I've built some older versions of wuftpd on irix. I think they have a
build option in the top level make file for irix where you can say
make irix or make sgi or maybe its build irix. Anyway what kind of
problems are you running into

Here's what I saw, I tried to use the generic build, but it looks like I'm not
getting the support libraries properly built, so I need to track that down, as
that seems to be why the (ftpd, ftpcount, ftpshut, and ftpwho) are not
building, either.

I'm also going to try 'build sgi' just to double check, but that's for a
really old version of Irix.

If only subscribers can post then the B*LLS EYE SH*T will not
make it through since it uses forged origin addresses and
does not bother to subscribe to lists before sending to them. I
think that the list address is just being picked up from a web
site or sites and that is it. Nothing fancy. And since the door
is open the sh*t blows right through to the list.

There is a lot of discussion about this type of abuse from time
to time on the list managers mailing list and basically there are
two points of view.

1. The minor annoyance of SPAM / UCE from time to time
doesn't warrant incurring the costs of stopping it. i.e. use MLM
software that is configured so that it only allows posts by list
subscribers and requires subscription confirmations before
subscribers are added to the list, and moderator labour to
handle the bounces from non subscribers and people who post
from more than one address but who subscribe from only one.

2. Any amount of spam is intolerable on a mailing list and no
effort is too expensive to undertake to get rid of it. These folks
believe that all mailing lists should be closed to subscriber
postings only and that all mailing lists should require
confirmation of address before processing a subscription.

BEG gets filtered at my mail client based on message content
so until he changes his spiel then I won't see it any more.
However, some of the ML digests that I get are now being
filtered because of this moron, so there is a limit to what one
can do on one's own to avoid this stuff. And let's face it, quiet
enjoyment of one's interests is one of the essential privileges of
civilized society, no one has a right to continually annoy you
and conceal their identity. ML's are private forums for free
exchange of ideas and help between members, not a public
place for hucksters to move their wares.

It would not trouble me at all to have all mailing lists closed to
members only. Many MLM software packages can be
configured to send back an automatic response to a post from
a non-subscriber telling them how to get on the list. This by
itself beats 99% of the UCE software out there.

Most current MLM software can be configured to require e-mail
address confirmation before adding a subscriber to the list, that
feature beats about 99% of the rest and has the added boon of
keeping people with badly configure e-mail clients from ever
getting on the list to begin with. And if someone can't figure out
how to subscribe to a mailing list from written instructions, or
can't configure their e-mail client to show a working address,
then I fail to see how a mailing list is going to be able to help
them anyway.

Jim

:) Point taken. We are looking into changing the list to allow
member-only posting.

Hello,

I have Version wu-2.4(84) running on Linux and when I log in
via ftp and try to download multiple files at once with 'mget *.html'
for instance, I get back the error message:

Bad directory components
can't find list of remote files, oops

What does this mean and how can I fix it. I need to be able to upload
multiple files at once also.

And while I'm here, can tar be placed in the ftp bin directory so
that tar can be executed on the remote server via ftp command line?

All comments appreciated.

Thanks!

--Paul T.

You might want to check out the NEWVIRT patches at the Resource Center; it
may offer what you're looking for.

In answer to your question about 'upload': No, what you're looking for is
not part of the current daemon.

Hard links.

Or re-design your security scheme to use permissions to keep users apart
and chroot them all to a common point. That's what I do here.

This sounds like a good use for "loopback mounts", as found on Solaris

You may also create a special FS that holds all things that are common to all
your users i.e. libs, bins, ... You mount this FS over all users directories.

The question is "over how many directories can I mount my FS?"

I say 'NEWVIRT patches' because in my mind that's what NEWVIRT 040 is, a
set of patches to the base daemon.

Last I heard, 040 was it. You'll have to wait for Kent to get them up to
snuff for beta 18 or do it yourself.

Newvirt patches will be out shortly. I'm swamped with work for the next
couple days.

Subject: Current fixes for beta 18 from VRnet
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

These patches, along with the source kits needed to build an ftp site are
available at ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/ The patches themselves are at:

ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18-vr3.patch

These patches are against beta 18 _only_. They include all earlier VRnet
patches along with several new ones.

This is a list of fixes to BETA 18 from [email protected]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
BETA 18 fixes the CD ~ problem, but the fix is disabled by default. It
should be enabled. Discovered in testing.

Prevent NOOP resetting idle timer. From a patch submitted to the mailing
list by [email protected] on Feb 4, 1998.

Add -X command-line option and syslog option to log statement in
ftpaccess. These options eliminate xferlog output and direct transfer
logs to syslog instead. From a patch posted to the mailing list by
[email protected] on Mar 12, 1998. Corrected and cleaned up during
testing.

Somewhere along the way the upload statement was broken. This fix adds a
new parameter to upload so admins can determine the permissions for any
new directories permitted. New features are documented in ftpaccess
manpage. From patches submitted to the mailing list on April 29, 1998 by
[email protected] and [email protected]. Subsequent investigation shows
this problem existed as far back as 1994 and the new features have been
requested for almost as long.

Move Linux to use POSIX regex included with the system instead of the
routines included with wu-ftpd. This allows us to define path-filter
statements which allow spaces in the pathnames. For example:
path-filter anonymous /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_.[:space:]]*$ ^\. ^-
>From a patch sent to the mailing list by [email protected]
on Apr 30, 1998. Although only enabled for Linux, this should work for
any machine using the GNU regular expression library librx. If you're
brave and try it, and it works, let me know.

Added 'hostname' configuration statement. Normally the server determines
its host name from the system. This allows the admin to specify the name
on machines with several names (multihomed) where the default name is not
the desired name. Manpage updated. Discovered in testing. Subsequent
searches through the mailing list archives shows this was first proposed
by [email protected] on Sept 27, 1994.

Shutdown warnings were not given to normal (non-anonymous) users on login.
Discovered in testing.

Makefile.lnx presumes Bison is installed; it isn't always. Discovered in
testing, beta 17 was OK. Dunno why it changed. YMMV on this patch.

Makefile.lnx links the daemon and support programs statically. The wisdom
of this is debatable at best. Discovered in testing.

The fixes for the CD ~ problem (ALTERNATE_CD option for beta 18) break a
few things. Most notably, xferlog doesn't include the full name of the
file and the upload command doesn't work properly. In addition, I believe
noretrieve should be based on the real file system rather than the
chroot'd environment. The man page says '/' means the name is an
'absolute path specification' which I take to mean from the real file
system. Discovered during testing; I had the same problem with my CD ~
fix in beta 17 so I was expecting this.

On the upload clause, 'no' should imply 'nodirs'. Good grief, how long
has this bug been lurking about? Discovered in testing.

The perl script xferstats incorrectly identifies internet addresses whose
host name begins with "inf" or which are only 2 components wide (e.g.,
"bix.com") as unresolved. I could not verify the "inf" problem, but the 2
component problem has been verified to exist in the current version. From
a patch submitted to the mailing list by [email protected] on June 29 1994.

The util/xferstats that comes with wu-ftpd 2.4 always produces a count of
zero for "Systems Using Archives", because the array whose size is printed
("$systemfiles") never gets anything stored in it. Verified to exist in
the current version. From a patch submitted to the mailing list by
[email protected] on July 4, 1994.

The noretrieve clause is extended to mark entire directories un-gettable.
>From a patch submitted to the mailing list by [email protected] on July 12,
1995. Cleaned up and man page updated.

The upload clause is extended to allow '*' for <owner> and <group> so a
single upload clause can work for all users. For example:
upload /home/ftp /private/*/imcoming* yes * * 640 nodirs
can be used to create private upload areas for every user. From a patch
submitted to the mailing list by [email protected] on Nov 6, 1994. Cleaned
up and man page updated.

New ftpaccess clause 'nice' to adjust process priorities based upon the
class. From a patch submitted to the mailing list on Sept 4, 1995 by
[email protected]. Patch included man page update.

While researching 'nice' came across an undocumented ftpaccess clause
'guestserver'. Man page updated.

Noticing 'guestserver' made me look. There are two other undocumented
ftpaccess clauses: 'lslong' and 'lsshort'. Man page updated.

Added -w and -W to enable (default, -w) or disable (-W) recording user
login and logout for ftp sessions in wtmp. From a patch submitted to the
mailing list by [email protected] on Feb 12, 1996. Cleaned up and updated
documentation.

Hi, just curious to know if there are any limits to the number of entries in
the /etc/ftphosts file. We have a pretty big file right now, and in the next 6
months its going to really grow. Will I have any problems..?

BTW, Hats off the the people who wrote and tweaked this application. Runs like
a top.

I'm quite a newbie and I've problem with chroot and wu-ftp....

I set up wu-ftpd to prevent all of our users to see other users directory.
My trouble is that to allow this, i had to put /bin /etc /dev and /lib in
each directory. These files represent more than 2 Mo, multiplied by
thousands of users, it makes a few gigas wasted...
Any turn-around??????
Thanks.

Upgrade to 2.4.2 beta 18, it'll fix a lot of problems and several rather
severe security issues.

This looks like a local ftp client issue instead of a daemon problem. Can
you get a directory listing using 'ls'? If not, this is a FAQ, correct
the daemon configuration.

Yes, as well as compress and gzip. The ls command must be there as a
minimum.

> All comments appreciated.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Dunno why, but download and recompile the ls command from GNU fileutils
and it should work fine. Happens to me every time I upgrade my kernel
too.

Hello,

I just solved the problem. Maybe this is interesting for some people as well -
or maybe it should be mentioned somewhere in the README's?

I had the permissions for the libraries which ls needs set to 0444 (read only)
and the new kernel does not like that anymore.
After Iset them to 0555 (read only and executable) everything worked fine again.

Harry

The host access array is dynamically allocated during runtime. It appears
you'll only be limited by the amount of memory (and the pain of the
accumulated slowdown parsing the file).

I have been using beta 13 & beta 15 in a production environment for some
time with virtual servers. I have encountered a situation where guest
users from different virtual servers want competing functionality.

(1) In one case, each user wants own the files that he/she creates, group
ownership is to be the same but file permissions must be 664

(2) In another case, users want 644

How does one retain the owner as the logged in guest user but alter the
permissions ?

Of course, there is another case where multiple guest users on 1 virtual
site want different groups based on the directories as well.

Can the upload directive do this ?
e.g. upload /"ftproot" * yes * group dirs 664
-
where the underlined * says don't change (the above case assigns owner to
root)

Wayne

PS I have tested beta 18 & see no specific additional capability like this.
(Can I not see the wood for the trees ?)

Hi there,

I'm running a wu-ftpd 2.4.2b18 (tried b16 as well) on my linux machine which I
just upgraded from kernel 2.0.33 to 2.0.34.
Since the new kernel is in place ftp users can't use the "list" command any
more.
Doing a strace on the ftpd shows that it gets 'EACCES (Permission denied)' for
the execve call.

With 2.0.33 it worked fine and I didn't touch the ftpd configuration nor the
/bin, /lib or /etc permissions in the ftp tree.

Any idea why? Thanks.

Harry

Subject: vr3 patches on HP-UX 10 realpath conflict
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I have been working with beta 18 on HP-UX 10 and have tried applying
the vr3 patches. I've found several problems; I had a little problem
with the patch program, which may be my unfamiliarity with it.

One serious conflict I discovered, however, is that <stdlib.h>
declares a function called realpath with only two arguments when the
_INCLUDE_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED option is enabled:

#ifdef _INCLUDE_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED

/* ... */
extern char *realpath(const char *, char *);

This is not in HP-UX 9.
The HP man page for realpath indicates: First released in Issue 4,
Version 2. The man page describes a function the same, or similar, as
the wu-ftp realpath function. It does not credit anybody as having
first developed realpath.

My suggested fix for HP-UX 10 is to give the three argument realpath
function a different name. Either use it throughout or write a
two-argument realpath (or try using the HP realpath) when the third
argument is not required.

OK, I'll put together a patch to rename realpath to wu_realpath and avoid
the name collision.

But people ftping to my server are authenticating through NIS+, not the
/etc/passwd. If their home directory specified in NIS+ does not physically
exist on the ftp server, they are being dropped directly into "/".

Any other suggestions?

Hello,everyone:

I meet some trouble on guest ftp.

I have configured one guest ftp, including revising
passwd file. building up a set of necessary directory
such as etc,home bin usr.. adding a line "guestgroup xxx"
at ftpaccess ,
but I find when I ftp to the host by guest account,
something goes wrong. when I type "cd .. " at the root of guest,
it can not stay at the root of guest, insteading of backing to
upper directory.

Could you tell me the reason.
Thanks for any analyst.

You don't say which version of wu-ftpd you're running. I'd point out that
the current version is 2.4.2 beta 18 and that you might find the FAQ
helpfull.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

In the un-patched server, all you can do is set the umask with the -u
option. There's been several patches posted over the years to address
this problem. Most recently, my VR3 set for beta 18 includes this feature
along with several other changes. It can be had from
ftp://ftp.vr.net/pub/wu-ftpd/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18-VR3.patch or, if you
want just the permissions patch, you can get Andy Church's patch from the
mailing list archives.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

Try the following.

cd ~/wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta-18
echo >> src/config/config.hpx
echo '#define realpath realpath_on_steroids' >> src/config/config.hpx
/build clean
/build hpx

----

The VR2 patches for beta17 and VR3 for beta18 need to use the realpath
function provided with the source kit rather than one (if present)
provided by the OS. Adding the #define above to your config/config.???
should fix it. Of the systems supported by ./build, bdi fbs lnx nbs sco
sgi and sol already use it. The other systems may need to add the #define
to override the system function.

I finally got newvort-040 setup. Very nice!

What I want, of course, is that each virtual server have it's own
passwd file so that the users/local-admins can control who logins into
their server without bothering the /etc/passwd.

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

Thanks.

How hard would it be to specify a file other than /etc/passwd to
use for user lookups?

WOuld love to specify individual passwd files for virtual servers.

First of all, thank you for your attention and great help.

My current version is wu-ftp-2.4, and I have ever
configured some guest ftp in other hosts, but I don't
find any problem like this. ( OS is Solaris2.5.1)

Anyway, thanks for the website you provided,I
will try to find answers there.
Your further suggestion will be welcomed.

Best regards
Kevin

I am pretty new with Linux let alone wu-ftpd
I would like to have user 'Bob' have ftp access and only access his files
within his directories:
/bob/
/bob/incoming
But instead when logged in he can can go up the directory tree and have
carte blanc with the files in the root directory.
What do I need to do? and is there a way to make him "see" only his
directories and no others.

What you need is to set up a guestgroup for your users. See the guest
howto in the FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

I'm not sure if this will get you all the way to where you want to go, but
use the class statement to define who may access how. For instance:

class insiders real 10.*.*.* *.inhouse.domain localhost
class outsiders guest *

With no other classes, anonymous users will be denied (not in any class)
and real users from anywhere outside your 10-net, localhost, or the DNS'd
internal domain inhouse.domain (that should mean anywhere else) should
also be denied access (not in any class). Guest users will be chroot'd to
specific areas and allowed entry from anywhere.

Get the idea? Hope this helps.

I have a HP machine running HP-UX 10.20 with wu-ftp running inside our
firewall. I also have created several client guest accounts for external
access and a couple internal guest accounts. The client accounts are used
for sending files from outside our company to us. The internal accounts
are used to move files from the FTP servers to the local offices.
What i would like to do is limit the internal accounts such that only
people inside the firewall can use them. I.E. someone could not take the
login name and password and use them from outside the firewall, but at the
same time still have the client accounts work from the outside. In our
internal network we use 10.xxx.xxx.xxx for our IP numbers. With each
office having a different second octet. Is there a way to set accounts so
only people with certain IP (ie 10.xxx.xxx.xxx) can log in ?? OR is there
a better way to do this ??
I hope the question is clear enough. Thanks in advance for any help you
might be able to provide.

We are using wu-ftpd-academic 2.4.2-BETA 16 on a intel P-II Debian Linux
box as an anonymous ftp server.

For some reason one cannot see the list of files and directories. This
only happens from certian clients. For example if the client is running
on Solaris, DEC unix, DEC VAX, the listings show up. If the client is on
an SGI, linux (x86 and alpha), or if using Netscape from any OS then the
listing does not appear.

The weird thing is that you can still change directories and ftp files (of
course if you know the directories and files you want).

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Lon

This is a FAQ. Your ls command isn't set up correctly. Also, you should
upgrade to beta 18.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

This is just a guess, but some clients use NLST for the ls command, and
some use LIST. One of these causes wu-ftpd to run an internal ls, and the
other causes it to run an external one. This may explain why Solaris etc.
work - they cause the inbuilt command to run.

You can test this by using dir instead of ls (on the Solaris client at
least), or "ls -l", as either of these should end up causing wu-ftpd to
run the external ls instead. If this doesn't work, then you need to check
that the ls command and any required libraries are installed correctly under
the FTP root.

Good luck !

Cheers, Bob

Hi,everyone:

I want to limitate anonymous ftp access from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, then

I edit my ftphosts file, shown below:

#ftphosts
allow * *
deny ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
deny anonymous xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
( xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx means a fixed IP address)

My system is SunOS5.5.1 and ftp version is wu-ftp2.4,

(I think it is unnecessary to restart ftpd after revising ftphosts,)

nothing occurs. it seems that the ftphosts file did not take effect.

Is my file format incorrect?

hope to get your solution1

regards
kevin

You can use 'man ftphosts' to see for yourself. The manpage doesn't say
'*' is allowed as a username, so I'd have to check the source code to see
what's up with that. The deny lines look OK to me.

Personally, I'd use ftpaccess and 'deny' specific hosts there. That way I
can display a short message about _why_ they're being denied.

You're running an ANCIENT version of wu-ftpd and I strongly recommend you
upgrade to the most recent version (2.4.2-beta-18) as soon as possible.
There are a large number of severe security problems corrected since
version 2.4 was released several (five? six?) years ago.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

This is just a guess, but some clients use NLST for the ls command, and
some use LIST. One of these causes wu-ftpd to run an internal ls, and the
other causes it to run an external one. This may explain why Solaris etc.
work - they cause the inbuilt command to run.

I can now get the listing (from various clients) if I type nlist, but ls, ls -l,
and dir do not return a listing.

You can test this by using dir instead of ls (on the Solaris client at
least), or "ls -l", as either of these should end up causing wu-ftpd to
run the external ls instead. If this doesn't work, then you need to check
that the ls command and any required libraries are installed correctly under
the FTP root.

I have checked this out. They seem to be correct. They are only linked
against libs which are in ~ftp/lib.

[ 13:13:27 : root@elrond : ~ ]
(51) # ldd ~ftp/bin/ls
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4000e000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
[ 13:13:43 : root@elrond : ~ ]
(52) # ls -l ~ftp/lib
total 802
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 164094 Jul 15 13:26 ld-linux.so.2
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 650904 Jul 15 13:26 libc.so.6

Thanks for your help.

This is a FAQ .. please RTFFAQ .. the answers _are_ in it. 'seem' is the
operative work here .. they aren't you just don't see why. If you're
really stumped, just pitch the lot and build static binaries .. which is
also in the FAQ.

Subject: problems with SVR4
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I have installed wu-ftpd 2.4.2-18 in a unisys U6000/550 I
have(btw, it runs SVR 4.2). When I log with any user, it works nicely.
I can use ls, get and upload files(using tar or not, it don't
matters). But the problem is, when I log with an anonymous account, I
can't use any of these commands. I can only cd to directories.
Ok, I know its lacking something like a device in /dev, but I
created the ftp home as the documentation said(puting /dev/tcp and a
bunch of libs in /usr/lib). I have even tried to create a directory
structure like the solaris do(with /dev/tcp, /dev/udp, /dev/ticotsord
and /dev/zero). I have even copied the whole /usr/lib to ~ftp/usr/lib
and it not worked.
Well, I'm feeling like creating 3000 devices in my ~ftp/dev
directory. :)
What I'm asking is: there is anyone using SVR4 with a
annonymous ftp account working?

Thanks for your atention.

Domingos

Can't help with SVR4, but question: can you GET any files? If not, you
have a permisions problem, and that's problably what also stopping the
ls/tar/etc from working. Check that the ~ftp area is world-readable and
that the directories in it are world-executable:

chmod -R a=rX ~ftp

After that you should be able to retrieve files. If it doesn't fix youe
other problems, _then_ you need to take a look at missing pieces and
parts.

I already checked that. My permissions are all ok. I have
checked the permitions of the mount point too(I have /home/ftp in
another partition then /home).

Thanks for your help anyways(btw, I tried your guess now too :).

OB: I asked help from the Brazilian Unisys support, and do you believe
don't don't make idea how to make the annonymous ftp home in the SVR4
environment? :)

Thanks to Dan Stromberg, he showed me the way to find what I
needed to run the ftpd(trough "truss"). I was just lacking a /dev/null
in my annonymous directory. :)

After about 3-4 hours with different versions of wuftp and differnet
versions of AIX and
browsing through source code and header files. I tracked it down to
getpeername() system
call returning a familiy of 24 not 2. Familiy 2 is AF_INET and 24 is AF_INETV6.
AIX v4.3 now supports Pv6.
INETd was passing a IPv6 connection to the ftpd. After all the debugging it
turns out to be something
real simple. DOH!

In /etc/inetd.conf:

Bad:
ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /etc/ftpd ftpd -a

Good:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /etc/ftpd ftpd -a

If you just changed the executable path you get nailed by this.. You also need
to set it from tcp6 to
tcp. DOH DOH DOH!!!

Hope I can save someone many hours of grief. :) IPv6 support might be a nice
project... AIX v4.3
supports it I would assume other vendors would support it soon.

The first allow or deny line that matches a host is used, so moving the
allow line after the deny lines will prevent anonymous access from host
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Also if no entry exists for a user, access is allowed, so your ftphosts
file could be:

deny ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
deny anonymous xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
allow ftp *
allow anonymous *

I have tested this in wu-ftpd 2.4.2-beta-18, I think wu-ftpd 2.4 is
similar, the only difference I know of is that in beta-18 a username of
either ftp or anonymous specifies the anonymous user, its not necessary
to list them both.

The ftphosts file is used to allow or deny access to individual FTP users
from various hosts, the first allow or deny line that matches a host is
used. The following entries allow access to account internal-guest-username1
from any machine with an IP address starting with 10 and denies access to
that account from all other addresses. If there is no entry for a user,
access is allowed.

allow internal-guest-username1 10.*.*.*

Mime-Version: 1.0

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

Hi all,
I've been using a Mac/PC ssh client to setup secure tunnels for ftp traffic
between my Mac (or PC) and my UNIX server. Now I need to do it from UNIX to
UNIX. It seems that the Mac/PC clients are doing something to handle the
DATA port negotiation that I will have to do on my own here.

These are my steps:

As root on my UNIX machine I type
ssh 21:ftpserver:21 ftpserver

When I've coompleted logging in my tunnel is ready. I then go to another
window as a regular user and type:
ftp localhost

The tunnel picks up the traffic and forwards it securely to ftpserver where
I login as that user.

I know I need to be in passive mode of the FTP client so I type:
quote

Then PASV to enter passive mode and I get acknowledgement that I'm in
passive mode. Now here's the trouble.

when I try an FTP command like "ls" I get the following error:
500 Illegal PORT Command
500 Can't build data connection: no PORT specified

So what do I need to do with the PORT command to specify a dataport and
does this need to be done on the server of client?

TIA,
--John

Microsoft Security Bulletin (MS98-006)

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

Potential Denial-of-Service in IIS FTP Server due to Passive Connections

Last Revision: July 23, 1998

Summary
=======
Microsoft was recently alerted to an issue with the way the Microsoft(r)
Internet Information Server processes passive FTP connection requests.
Certain uses of multiple passive FTP connections may result in errors,
degrade system performance, and create denial of service situations for both
the FTP service and the WWW service running on the same machine.

This issue involves a denial of service vulnerability that potentially can
be used by someone with malicious intent to cause disruption of service. It
cannot be used to crash the FTP server, or any other service running on the
targeted system.

The purpose of this bulletin is to inform Microsoft customers of this issue,
its applicability to Microsoft products, and the availability of
countermeasures Microsoft has developed to further secure its customers.

Issue
=====
When multiple passive connections are made to a single FTP server via the
PASV FTP command, it is possible to use up all available system threads for
servicing clients. Once this happens, requests for additional connections
will fail as discussed above, and will continue to fail until a client
thread is again available. Further, the FTP and WWW services on a machine
share a common thread pool, so exhausting the FTP thread pool also will
cause connection requests for the WWW service to fail.

This vulnerability does not affect other services running on the same
system, nor does it cause the FTP or WWW service to crash. Once the passive
connections time out, the system performance will return to normal.

Server Administrators will see the following error in the System Event Log:
FTP Server could not create a client worker thread for user
at host 'IPAddress'. The connection to this user is terminated.
The data is the error.

Clients accessing either the WWW or FTP services might see messages such as
the either of the following:
- Connection closed by remote host
- The FTP session was terminated

Affected Software Versions
==========================
- Microsoft Internet Information Server 2.0, 3.0, 4.0

What Microsoft is Doing
=======================
Microsoft has produced an update for Microsoft Internet Information Server
versions 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0.

Intel Platforms
---------------
IIS 4.0:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/
ftp-fix/ftpfix4i.exe

IIS 3.0 and IIS 2.0:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/
ftp-fix/ftpfix3i.exe

Alpha Platforms
---------------
IIS 4.0:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/
ftp-fix/ftpfix4a.exe

IIS 3.0 and IIS 2.0:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/iis/iis-public/fixes/usa/security/
ftp-fix/ftpfix3a.exe

NOTE: Each of the above URLs above is one path; they have been wrapped for
readability.

What customers should do
========================
Microsoft recommends that customers hosting FTP sites with Microsoft
Internet Information Server install the update listed above. Customers who
do not use the FTP functionality of IIS do not need to install this update,
as this problem only occurs on systems running the FTP service.

NOTE: Consider running the WWW and FTP services on separate servers to
further decrease the possibility of attacks against the multiple services.

NOTE: Although this fix makes it significantly more difficult to mount a
denial of service attack against an FTP server, and limits the potential
impact and severity of such an attack, it does not make an attack
impossible. Malicious use of the PASV FTP command could still exhaust server
resources and have a limited effect on the operation of the FTP server.
Clients that use passive mode connections to connect to the FTP server may
be denied service and clients that are uploading information to the FTP
server may be denied service. If this happens, there will be many event log
entries of the type shown below. The event log entries will give the user
name of the attacker and the IP address that originated the attack. Using
this information, the FTP server administrator could choose to deny access
to the attacker, or take other appropriate actions.

Event Log Entries:
- Passive connect from user %1 at host %2 timed out.
- File received from user %1 at host %2 timed out.

If you are seeing a large number of either of these events, you may be
experiencing an attack.

First, it looks like the client you're using sends a PORT before LIST or
NLST with the 'ls' command. Try using QUOTE LIST and telnetting to the
passive data port by hand.

Second, it looks like the IP address being sent by the client with PORT
does not match the IP address the daemon sees the control connection as
coming from. By default, wu-ftpd does not allow this (valid) use of the
protocol. To re-enable it, you'll need to hack the source to remove the
check. Think carefully about doing that, though, since it opens your ftp
server up to being used for all kinds of interesting stuff by warez and
hacker kiddies.

You probably need to create the /etc/shells file and add the users' shell
programs to it. I believe this in the special Solaris section of the FAQ,
btw.

Hi Gregory!

I have problem.
Our users has some access to our ftp.

Has groups "wwwusers","wwwall","local","academ" in /et/group.
- wwwusers has 100 users
- wwwall has 300 users
- local has 10 users
- academ has 500 users
These groups has be "guest", i.e. "/./".

Example of my ftpaccess (don't comment):

guestgroup ftp wwwall wwwusers local academ

autogroup ftpadm admin
autogroup www users
autogroup tfi users

class admin real icc.ru ccsoan.irkutsk.su freemail.icc.ru
class users real dima.icc.ru .il
class local guest 10.8.0.*
class wwwusers guest 195.46.97.141 195.46.97.142 195.206.40.4
194.206.40.* 195.206.46.*
class academ guest 62.76.19.* 62.76.23.*
class wwwall guest *
class all anonymous *

For example, if user of group "local" cannot loggin from 10.1.0.1,
then he can loggin as wwwall, because he has "guest"...
May be you can help me.

I need do.
If user is "local"'s group then he have to use class "local"...
and no more...
If user of "local"'s group loggin from not 10.8.0.*
then he don't must loggin (access denied).

Do you understand me?

If "no" talk me... [email protected]

Thanx...

Hi all

I have just started a guest ftp service in our site and everything gone
ok, there wasn't no problem since the compilation from the ftpaccess settings.
And all the test were sucessfully done.
But, I've getting lots and lost of warnings in my system log file
/var/debug.log everytime the (test) guest user sends a command to the server
(cd, ls, pwd, ...). Warnings this type:

syslog: fopen on /dev/null failed, errno 2

I'm running wu-ftpd (version 2.4.2-beta-17) on a risc 6000 with
AIX 4.1.3. Please, could anybody help me and gime me some idea what is
happening?

Thanks a lot

Alexandre Almeida

Looks like you need to create /dev/null in the guest user's chroot'd area.

hi - im trying to download the latest version (beta) of wu-ftpd from

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

BUT

when i use the netscape browser to access this address i get a popup
saying that the document contains no data ! when i manually try to
ftp to ftp.academ.com i get:

--- include ---
ftp> user [email protected]
530- InterLock FTP Gateway: Remote server refused connection (%d)
421 Closing session
530 To connect to a remote site use the "user <remoteuser>@<remotehost>" command

Subject: Virtual Hosting Problem when retrieving files though a browser
MIME-Version: 1.0

charset="iso-8859-1"
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.0.1460.8)
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

I have setup wu-ftp on an HPUX 10.20 supporting virtual hosting. When a user
tries to download a file directly from the browser (Internet Explorer) user
it's unable to accomplish it. However, if you go to the directory first then
it will let you download files with no problems.

This is what happens on the syslog.

VirtualFTP Connect to: 205.155.129.54
ftpd[16163]: USER anonymous
ftpd[16163]: PASS IE30User@
ftpd[16163]: TYPE Image
ftpd[16163]: PASV
ftpd[16163]: RETR /drivers/47xxdisk.exe
ftpd[16163]: CWD /drivers/47xxdisk.exe

What doesn't it retrieves the files first and then tries to do a CWD? What
is PASV?

I need to be able to pull the files directly from a web site.

Thanks,

Elena

Looks like your firewall/proxy. When I ftp to ftp.academ.com I get a
wu-ftpd daemon, not Interlock ftp gateway.

To use a web browser with ftp to get the file, you need to give the entire
URL for the package.:

that looks like a client issue, not a server issue. I would guess IE is
trying to CWD to it since it got an error RETReiving the file.

PASiVe mode. It's part of the protocol (see the RFCs) and tells the
server to sit waiting for an incoming connection from the client rather
than trying to connect outwards to the client.

> I need to be able to pull the files directly from a web site.

You don't say what the problem is, so I'm guessing either the
file/directory '/driver/47xxdisk.exe' doesn't exist or isnot within the
chroot'd area the virtual server is serving. Or, you're behind a firewall
and the address the daemon sent to the client in response to PASV is
wrong (you'll need to move outside the firewall if that's the case).

The instructions are in the FAQ.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

I cannot get ftpd to work with my options in ftpaccess file. I'm using
similar configuration files that I used with version 2.4.2(3). Main
problems I've noticed is that my message file isn't shown on login and
ftpwho doesn't show any connections when connections are established.

The ftpaccess file I'm using is:

loginfails 2

message /usr/local/etc/msg.welcom login

path-filter real /usr/local/etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9._]*$ ^\. ^-

Any suggestions?

Somewhere along the way (I forget which version) the wu-ftpd switched from
reading the ftpaccess file by default, to not reading it by default. My
guess is that your older version read it by default, and you haven't changed
the startup parameters to tell the new version to read it.

You can do this by supplying the parameter "-a".

Another possibility is that the default pathname for the ftpaccess file
in pathnames.h may have changed in the new version. You might want to check
to make sure your ftpaccess file is in the expected place.

I hope this helps - good luck !

Cheers, Bob

- i think your beta18 ftpd was compiled to look for the ftpaccess
file, etc elsewhere. (i.e. different path)

> problems I've noticed is that my message file isn't shown on login and

- i think you're trying to use the ftpwho of the old ftpd. you should
have compiled a new set of binaries (ftpwho, ftpcount, ftpshut)
for the beta18 ftpd. if you do have these binaries, maybe $PATH
is defaulting to the old ones.

Seems your ftpaccess isn't used. Is ftpd started with option '-a'?

Paulo,
Not sure if I am answering your question correctly.
The answer is yes. but secure ?
you can create the directory group read/write/excutable
and /etc/passwd, make that directory for their ftp directory.
DONE (needless to say, those two account have to belong to the same
group )or
you can create sub login account after you ftp normally.
That way, each directry is protected by a passwd and either of
them can see either one.

Tatsuya

The "-a" option worked. The man page for ftpd list that option as an
address binding parameter. I guess that will get changed later.

Thanks Josef.

Hi

I'm having a couple of problems understanding the SITE GROUP and
SITE GPASS commands. I can get them to work by making a group in the
ftpgroups file. However, I am not sure what privileges this group has. I

want it to have the same privileges as the group it maps to in
/etc/group. Is this the case? If it is not the case, how do I get this
type of sublogin to work and give users access as defined in
/etc/groups.

Finally, if anyone could tell me how I get wu-ftpd to do a similar
feature to sublogins
as it does not do this.

Thanks for you help

Yilmaz

Hi,

Could anyone tell me what the use of the SITE GROUP and GPASS commands
are? How do they allow groups to get more access to directories than
anonymous users?

Thanks

To use SITE GROUP and SITE GPASS, you must have compiled the daemon
_without_ NO_PRIVATE defined in config.h (this is the default, you you
probably have it enabled there). Next, you must include 'private yes' in
your ftpaccess. Then you must create the ftpgroups file mapping a wu-ftp
group to a real Unix group.

Once you have passed GROUP and GPASS, your ftp session will have the
permissions of the Unix group, within the contraints of the other
ftpaccess statements. So, while the group might have authority to write
in a directory, the upload, delete, etc., clauses in ftpaccess can still
prevent many of the increased features from taking effect.

One example use for wu-ftpd groups is to allow anonymous users who know
the group password the ability to view the contents of an incoming
directory which is unviewable to all other anonymous users. Consider:

~ftp/incoming can be owned by ftpadmin/ftpadmin with permissions
u=rwx,g=rwxs,o=wx and the following appear in ftpaccess:

private yes
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /incoming* yes ftpadmin ftpadmin 440 nodirs

The upload clauses prevent uploading files anywhere in ~ftp except into
the incoming directory. Uploaded files in the incoming directory will be
owned by the site admin user and group and be read-only. the private
clause, however, means the ftpgroup file could contain a line such as:

siteadm:<crypt(pwd)>:ftpadmin

Now, when a logged-in anonymous ftp user issues the following:

SITE GROUP siteadm
SITE GPASS <pwd>

They will have group permissions. In this example, they can now read the
contents of the incoming directory (ls, LIST, etc) as well as read the
contents of files in that directory. such anonymous users could delete,
chmod, or rename files in the incoming directory as well _unless_ the
directory is g-w or ftpaccess includes:

chmod no anonymous
delete no anonymous
rename no anonymous

Unix files permissions still take effect, so even without the delete
clause, if we chmod o+t the incoming directory, delete would still be
disallowed, but at the Unix level, since the anonymous user has
ftp/ftpadmin privilege, o+t in the directory prevents non-owners from
deleting files, and the owner was set to ftpadmin by the upload clause.

In summary, yes, SITE GROUP is the sub-login you're looking for but I
would warn you to be _very_ careful in the security model you impose since
this feature, if improperly set up, can expose your entire system to
abuse.

In my experience, people who are playing with SITE GROUP are usually
looking for the guest-group features instead of the GROUP sub-login
features. Carefully examine what you're trying to accomplish and the
various security models available to you before choosing SITE GROUP over
guest-groups. Almos always, guest-group is the correct choice.

For more about guest-groups and how to set them up, see the FAQ:

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.

I am looking for some patches so that I can use WU-FTP to get files into
my LPmud
directory hierarchy. There are some muds I have seen that have the
ability to set up a user account so that you can type
lpmud:wizname
And get ther access rights of that wizname.

If anyone has any experience in setting this up on a Linux box I would
be grateful

I did this years and years ago. Dunno if I still have the patches laying
arround. I'm quite sure the patches I would have are for version 2.4 and
would need quite a bit of work to get up to 2.4.2-beta-18. As I recall,
it wasn't that hard to get working. ISTR that I got the patches
originally from Amylaar's ftp site, but don't know if they'restill there.

Hmm .. what wuftpd do you want patched?? (Those I have seen before I
updated them was patched version to the original 2.4 wuftpd..)

I updated those patches (by Thorsten Lockert) to match my configuration
of Solaris2.x and wu-ftpd2.4.2b13 but I should fix some stuff in the patch
(namely lausy initialhandling), rearrange some stuff and update it to
b18 ..

>If anyone has any experience in setting this up on a Linux box I would
>be grateful

Just because of your email I will do it this night.. :-)

(I cc:ed the list because I will point to some ftp-sites.. it's nice to
have in the archive isn't it?)

My version .. patch and so (old and in a few days new) will be found at
least on:
ftp://ftp.coyote.org/pub/unix/networking/ftp/
(It's nice to have friends.) If that doesn't work...

Well it should be in
ftp://ftp.mds.mdh.se/pub/unix/networking/ftp/
also, but sudden rearrange have moved it ..

(If you can't fins it - I didn't test this links - I put it for a few days
on http://www.mds.mdh.se/~cel95eig/ftp/ )

The original 2.4 version may be found
ftp://ftp.cd.chalmers.se/pub/lpmud/genesis/ftpd/
(I have posted it there, but ..)

The original authors ftpsite is
ftp://ftp.sigmasoft.com/pub/mud/ftpd/
(I have posted it there too...)

Subject: More current fixes for beta 18

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

Here's more bug fixes and enhancements to wu-ftpd 2.4.2 beta 18. This set
of patches presumes my VR3 patches have already been applied. Patches,
along with most of the other software needed to build an ftp site are
available via anonymous ftp from:

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

The FIXES file for VR4 follows:

This is a list of fixes to BETA 18 with VR3 applied from [email protected]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mod to realpath for VR3 wasn't complete. This was mainly visible when
logging a deletion message. Discovered in testing.

Added new command-line option -D to run in standalone daemon mode. From
a patch by [email protected] announced on the mailing list on May 30,
1996. Cleaned up and updated manpage. The original patch has problems
with syslog messages, which are fixed here. Also added setproctitle to
the standalone mode. This is a win for busy sites but not the big win
it could be if it pre-loaded the ftpaccess file into memory. Also, at
this point, the standalone mode loses the tcpwrappers functionality which
is available when running from inetd.

Added syslog messages for more stuff. MKD, RMD, CHMOD and RNTO now log
as DELE has. Discovered in testing; this has always sorta bothered me.

Added MAPPING_CHDIR config option to support CWD working like cd command
in most Unix shells; the PWD shown is the logical path rather than the
physical path. This is a Frequently Requested Feature. From a patch by
[email protected] announced on the mailing list on May 30, 1996.

HELP PORT indicated only 5 bytes were needed. Six are. Noticed when
looking for something else so I fixed it.

The following problems were noted during testing:
- Issuing PORT prior to login changes the state of the daemon
- Issuing PASV after PORT does not change the mode reported by STAT
- Illegal PORT commands change the state of the daemon
This turned out to be two problems: PASV mode was being reset by rejected
PORT commands, and PASV mode wasn't reseting the state completely after
setting up a data connection.

Allow numeric UID and GID values. On systems with large numbers of users
and a large number of upload clauses, the daemon can take a significant
period to process the ftpaccess, passwd and group files. From a patch off
the mailing list from [email protected] on July 29, 1997. Extended
the patch to effect all places user or group names would be allowed: the
ftpgroup file used with the private clause and the upload, guestgroup and
autogroup clauses.

While I was working on numeric GID values for the ftpgroup file, I added
the ability to specifiy groups which have no password. You'll still need
to SITE GPASS, but just send no password. Also fixed possible bugs if the
ftpgroup file is malformed.

Added 'defumask' to specify umask values by class in ftpaccess. From a
feature request from [email protected] posted to the mailing list on Oct
10, 1994. Man page updated.

Sure: open your web browser to the FAQ, click on the instructions for
Solaris are follow the step-by-step instructions there.

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

ftp://ftp.academ.com/pub/wu-ftpd/private/

You can't see the directory contents, so read the message informing you
of the actual filename to retrieve. It's there.
