First, update to version 2.5.0 .. the version you are running is very old
and has a number of critical security problems.

Your specific error is corrected by creating the Unix group 'msmirror' in
your /etc/group file.

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

Hello,

I'm using wu-ftpd in Sun Solaris 2.7
I have one network card with multiple virtual interfaces configured over
it (hme0, hme0:1, hme0:2, hme0:3 and hme0:4).

My problem is:
(*) If I connect to the wu-ftpd using the IP of the interface hme0 all
goes fine.
(*) But, if I connect using the IP of any of the virtual interfaces
(hme0:1, hme0:2, hme0:3 or hme0:4) I experiment several problems.
For example, when I connect apear the message:
Connected to ftp.mydomain.ext.
but must wait 6 seconds for the login prompt to appear.
Another problem, is that when I transfer lot of files using the WS-FTP
client, randomly obtain the error:
Blocking call cancelled

Any solution ?

Many thaks.

1) Which version of the daemon are you running? Version 2.5.0 has the
features needed to operate behid firewalls.

2) The problem you're reporting does not appear to be a firewall problem.
It's a client problem. Most likely when you say 'firewall' you mean a
proxy. I'd sugest contacting the proxy vendor and determining why it does
not speak FTP properly.

I'd look for network problesm. DNS, ARP something like that. If the
client is a windows box try making sure it has a valid DNS entry for both
forward and reverse lookups. Also, make sure it does not drop AUTH
packets (just let them be refused).

Sure. Switch do Unix. Windows can't take the load you're asking it to.

Patrick,
you dont give much detail on your problem, however, I suspect it may be
associated with PASV mode.
ie set the client to use passive mode (PASV) and the firewall should pass
the traffic.

Regards
Geoff

Hi guys,

Does any one know about the GREETING parameters in ftpaccess for WU-FTPD?
I'm currently using Wu-FTP-2.5.0

I installed a fresh copy of slackware 4, then installed
a fresh copy of wu-ftpd 2.5.0. When I use "ftpwho"
it shows something like this...

Service class local:
- 0 users ( 20 maximum)
Service class remote:
1 ? S 0:01 init [3]
- 1 users ( 10 maximum)

I have other boxes (not running slakware 4) that when
i use ftpwho (running wu-ftpd 2.5.0) it shows the hostname
and waht the user is doing, etc.

Anyone know waht my problem is?

Thanks

Hello,
I installed WU-FTPd 2.5.0 on a Solaris 2.6 machine. The install
went the same as the beta version I had installed. I have the wuftpd
daemon in the rc0.d and rc3.d directories so that the deamon will stop
and start during re-boots. My problem is the following message on the
console:
starting wu-ftpd machinename ftpd[224]: getpeername
(/usr/sbin/in.ftpd): socket operation on a non socket.
Any ideas where I ned to make a change so it will run on a socket?

Chuck

Be sure you have:

-S (big S) specified on the command line. This forks the daemon into
the backgroup. -s (small s) leaves the daemon in the foreground and is
suited for by-hand startup. Either option puts the daemon into
standalone mode; without one of them the daemon runs in inetd mode and
will get an error such as you're seeing.

In /etc/services, an entry for 'ftp' or the -p option on the command
line. This tells the standalone daemon which port to listen on for
incoming control connections. One or the other is required.

In /etc/services, and entry for 'ftp-data' or the -P option on the
command line. This tells the standalone daemon which port to use for
outgoing data (PORT) connections. If neither is specified, the control
port ('ftp' or -p option), less 1, is used.

Nope.

There have been several questions about this for Linux (mostly RH 6.0 ..
you're the first Slackware I've seen).

If Redhat ever decides to ship the RH 6.0 CD I've order, I'll take a look
at it. My guess though is there's something bunged up in the 'ps'
command. Tell me: what do you get when you run `ps axwww <pid>` where
<pid> is to PID for some running process?

Also, if someone could, on a Linux system exhibiting this problem, with a
few ftpd daemons active, please send me a `ps axwww` showing all processes
(ie., no PID specified), the output from `ls -al /var/run/ftpd.pid*`, your
entire /etc/ftpaccess, and the raw (binary) /var/run/ftpd.pid* files in
existance at the same time.

Sayeth `man ftpaccess`:

greeting full|brief|terse
greeting text <message>
Allows you to control how much information is given out before
the remote user logs in. 'greeting full' is the default and
shows the hostname and daemon version. 'greeting brief' whose
shows the hostname. 'greeting terse' simply says "FTP server
ready." Although full is the default, brief is recommended.

The 'text' form allows you to specify any greeting message you
desire. <message> can be any string; whitespace (spaces and
tabs) is converted to a single space.

FYI:

This is just a note to inform all that over the next few days I
will be converting the WU-FTPD Resource Center over to information
pertaining to the wu-ftpd.org generated ftpd server.

Man pages, examples, dev-corner, patches submission, etc. will be
documented there. I'll try to make sure it is apparent as to what
version I'm referencing but the default documented version is
changing to wu-ftpd version 2.5.0.

The original information will be maintained for a while but it
will require digging a bit more into the site.

FWIW...

Hello,
Recently I sent a message about the following error:

The following message appears on the console:

starting wu-ftpd machinename ftpd[224]: getpeername (/usr/sbin/in.ftpd):
socket operation on a non socket.

The solution was to use the ftpd file located in:
/opt/WUFtpd250/reloc/usr/local/sbin/ftpd and copy it to
/usr/sbin and renamed it to in.ftpd Before I copied and renamed ftpd I
changed the exsisting file in /usr/sbin to in.ftpd.old. Just incase it didn't
work :)

FTP is now working. Thanks to the replies

Chuck

Hi, all

I'm trying to compile version 2.5.0(1) over SunOS 4.1.4 using gcc 2.8.1
and I'm getting the following error during the compilation:

"extensions.c:296: #error wu-ftpd on this platform has security deficiencies!!!
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `extensions.o'"

Did anybody get such error anytime? And, did anybody got the solution?

Any help would be very apreciated...

You have three choices:

BEST: upgrade to an OS which has sufficient software support that a
secure daemon may be written. Sun will tell you that the
function(s) we're looking for are provided by SunOS .. our
experience is that they are buggy and we will not use them until
Sun fixes them.

BETTER: modify the daemon so it builds support/getcwd.c for SunOS and send
the changes back to the Development Group. support/getcwd.c is a
portable implementation of the getcwd() function which is buggy on
SunOS and which is the cause of the specific error you're asking
about.

HO-HUM: Edit src/extensions.c to remove the message and continue blindly
trusting noone works out how to attack SunOS through your version
of the FTP daemon. If you choose this option, we don't want to
hear about it; you have been warned.

Perhaps a silly question but:

Any binaries of the latest version of the program kicking around for AIX
4.3?

The latest version needs a compiler to build it and the latest version of
GCC doesn't work with AIX 4.3. . . so I'm left without a way to compile. . .
(without purchasing Ibm's compiler which my work is reluctant to do at this
point).

So I can't install the latest version until someone posts a version of GCC
that works with AIX 4.3.

Perhaps not a problem for this list, but I was wondering if anyone had any
ideas?

By the way, am I right in thinking that 2.5.0. is close enough to just drop
ONLY the executable file (once compiled) on top of the old one executable,
or does 2.4.2 BETA-18-VR14 use any different directories or libraries?

I have not installed wu-ftpd before (or done much work on Sun boxes before).
I am having problems doing the build - can anyone please help me?

I have changed the Makefile.sol files so that CC=gcc, I have gcc in my path
and /usr/ucb removed from my path.

My pathnames.h looks like this:

define _PATH_FTPUSERS "/etc/ftpusers"
define _PATH_FTPACCESS "/usr/local/etc/ftpaccess"
define _PATH_EXECPATH "/bin/ftp-exec"
define _PATH_PIDNAMES "/usr/local/daemon/ftpd/ftp.pids-%s"
define _PATH_CVT "/usr/local/etc/ftpconversions"
define _PATH_XFERLOG "/usr/adm/xferlog"
define _PATH_PRIVATE "/etc/ftpgroups"

ifndef _PATH_UTMP
define _PATH_UTMP "/etc/utmp"
define _PATH_WTMP "/usr/adm/wtmp"
define _PATH_LASTLOG "/usr/adm/lastlog"
endif

define _PATH_BSHELL "/bin/sh"
define _PATH_DEVNULL "/dev/null"

ifdef HOST_ACCESS
define _PATH_FTPHOSTS "/usr/local/etc/ftphosts"
endif

When I run ./build sol I get the following...

/build sol
make args are :
make opts are :

If anyone can give me an idea where the problem is then I would be very
gratefull.

You lost the # in front of the C preprocessor commands. I'd suggest
printing off your pathnames.h, restoring the original, and re-editing ..
being a bit more careful this time.

Hello,

I am looking for a way to allow "offsites" the ability to share files
and directories in a simple fashion yet secure (multiple
passwords/directories, etc...).

I have found many possibilities of HTTP/CGI utilities that may have
questionable
vulnerabilities.
What I am looking for is a HTTP front end to the wu-ftpd that will allow
me
to offer this service to multiple users.
Has this "frontend" been developed ?

Is virtual ftp servers per directory a good idea ?

Any ideas are welcome ?

Thanks for your time,
Paul

Hello,

We are using Version wu-2.4(1) for awhile now with good success.
Recently I've encountered a problem whenever I have to restart inetd on
our system. After this is done, people can still connect via FTP but
they cannot see any files in the directory. We are using both real and
guest accounts and both are affected by this problem. Currently the
only way to fix the problem is to reboot. Here is a copy of my
ftpaccess file :

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ top-of-file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

class all real,guest,anonymous *
delete no anonymous # delete permission?
overwrite no anonymous,guest # overwrite permission?
rename no anonymous,guest # rename permission?
chmod no anonymous,guest # chmod permission?
umask no anonymous,guest # umask permission?
#
# those groups of users that will be treated as "guests"
guestgroup ftpgrp

limit all 10 Any /etc/msgs/msg.dead

readme README* login
readme README* cwd=*
#
# those directories where uploading is not permitted
upload /usr1/work/HOLD * no
upload /usr1/users/tipftp * no
upload /usr1/users/roftp * no
upload /usr1/users/adftp * no
upload /usr1/users/tcftp * no
upload /usr1/users/ccftp * no
upload /usr1/users/jbftp * no

message /welcome.msg login
message .message cwd=*

compress yes local remote
tar yes local remote

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

shutdown /etc/shutmsg

email user@hostname
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ end-of-file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here is the entry for ftpd in my /etc/inetd.conf :

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

Any advice would be most appreciated. Oh, our O/S is DEC Unix 4.0B

Why would anyone bother? Not only would it be so insecure even thinking
about it is frightening, but it would be extremely wastefull.

What you want is to choose a protocol: HTTP or FTP. then use the client
appropriate for that protocol.

> Is virtual ftp servers per directory a good idea ?

If you have the IP numbers to burn, I guess. Your customers will think
it's cool, at least.

Chris,

Not sure... but you should probalby do a couple of things. First -
upgrade to 2.5.0. It's much safer and will make sure that we are all
working under the same assumptions.

Second. Maybe something is different between your startup files and the
inetd file?

Verify your startup files.....
Do a find across your file system for fptd - and verify you are running
the right ones.

Also execute an ls -ul against the different ftpd's that you find and
verify that the last access times make sense.

I would disconnect that computer from ALL network access, including LAN
access. I would consider wiping it down since, if it's been on a network,
it's probably been broken into many, many times over the past decade.

I would install 2.5.0 immediately.

then I'd worry about little prloblems like the site bing unusable to your
users.

I am planning to upgrade our ftpd from wu-2.4(1) to 2.5.0. Our system
is currently running DEC Unix 4.0x with C2 security and I'm just
wondering if I can use the pre-compiled "binary" distibution
"wu-ftpd-2.5.0-OSF1alpha-V4.0.tar.gz" with C2 security? Or do I need to
compile/make everything from the general distribution
(wu-ftpd-2.5.0.tar.Z) ? I believe when I originally installed wu-2.4(1)
there were some code tweaks required for C2 because of the special
encryption it uses.

TIA.

I'll let the man who built the DEC binary speak to which flavor he
provided (meaning: I don't feel like digging through my email to see if he
ever told me).

If nothing else, try it. If it has problems, it's not C2. Grab the souce
kit and edit the src/makefiles/Makefile.du4 and src/config/config.du4 as
noted in those files. Be sure to do `./build clean` before you do
`./build du4`

No. I'm a builder of wu-ftpd-2.5.0-OSF1alpha-V4.0.tar.gz.
I'm building a binary distribution without C2 security.

Yes.

Run version 2.5.0 .. read the ftpd manpage ..

. then ponder why you're seeing HTTP access attempts to your FTP server.

I'd choose a different port for testing: 8080 is _way_ to commonly used
for HTTP testing. My firewall logs tell me there's a significant amount
of specific portscanning for HTTP there, so if you do use it for FTP just
be aware of the activity.

Can someome tell me the difference, if any, between these two download
files? "wu-ftpd-2.5.0.tar.Z" & "wu-ftpd-current.tar.Z"

Is "wu-ftpd-current.tar.Z" the base version of 2.5.0 with additional
patches. I would just like to know which one is recommended for someone
trying to upgrade from wu-2.4(1)?

TIA

-r--r--r-- 1 wuftpd wuftpd 413677 May 21 16:19 wu-ftpd-2.5.0.tar.Z
lrwxrwxrwx 1 wuftpd wuftpd 19 May 22 03:48
wu-ftpd-current.tar.Z -> wu-ftpd-2.5.0.tar.Z

"current" is a symlink to "2.5.0" to signify that that is the current
version.

Sure. -current is a symlink to whatever the current version is. The idea
is to make it so URLs and automated fetchers don't have to figure it out.

Many of the responses to questions posted on the start with
"What version are you running?"

Pardon a couple of dumb questions, but is there any easy way to
collect the information on version/patch of each server on a
network? Does anyone have a version history list with release
dates?

Thanks

Open a TCP connection to each IP address. Check the response for a
version number. Send USER and PASS to gain access then issue STAT with no
parameters. Many (but not all) FTP servers give their version on the
initial greeting. Many (but not all) FTP servers handle STAT as WU-FTPD
does by giving session status information, including server version. If
the version is still not appearent, you'll have to look by-hand at the
server to see if there's any other commands (maybe SITE STAT or some other
SITE command) which might reveal the version.

Please nevermind. I had a monstrous brainfart and didn't realize that
the partition my ftp client was writing to was running out of space.

Sorry all - and thanks if you were going to reply.

I would like to run a second wu-ftpd on a server and use a different port
than the standard FTP ports. I would like to create users that only have
the ability login to the second wu-ftpd. How can this be done? Does
wu-ftpd support multiple passwd files or is this some done through the
ftpaccess file?

Also, if this is possible, what version does it require. I am currently
running 2.4, but can upgrade if required.

Any help would be appreciated.

Upgrading is very strongly recommended.

You are running version 2.4 .. which is another way of saying you have no
concerns about security. So why bother? Anyone who wants it already has
root access on the machine.

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

ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/

The current release has features which will probably do what you want and
won't cause you all sorts of customer-support headaches by using different
port numbers. If the base release does not do enough, consider using
BeroFTPD instead.

when I try to connect via ftp, it will not accept my user name and password
pair.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

I have a line in /etc/shells which reads /usr/local/bin/bash
I am trying to gain access as a user who listed in /etc/passwd.
I have a line in /etc/passwd which reads:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd la

I have the latest version of wu-ftpd.
It compiled successfully, after editing the Makefile to read CC=gcc.

For the files ftpusers, ftpaccess, and ftphosts I have used the examples
contained within the tar files

which version are you referring to as 'latest'?

what OS are you trying to use?

what is the error logged in your system logs?

have you tested to see if the daemon is using the ftpaccess file at all?
Your inetd.conf line above does not have a dash (-) before the options: is
that a typo or did you forget it?

If you changed your inetd.conf line, did you remebmer to kill -HUP the
inetd process so it would use the changed config file?

Have you tried looking through the FAQ?

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

Change your inetd.conf line from

ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd la

to

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

Thank you for your swift reply.
The version of wu-ftpd that I am using is wu-ftpd-2.5.0
The OS I am using is Solaris 2.6
As far as I can see no error has been logged to my system logs.
I have edited my inetd.conf to include a `-' before the arguments al
I then restarted inetd using kill -HUP

I get the following when trying to connect via ftp:

ftp .
Connected to ..
ftpd: Unknown flag -a ignored.
ftp>

I changed inetd.conf back again and ...

ftp .
Connected to ..
220 test-box1 FTP server (SunOS 5.6) ready.
Name (.:ger): ger
331 Password required for ger.
Password:
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.
ftp>

Assuming that the build/install went ok, all I need is to configure some
config files - right?
I think /etc/services is fine
I think /etc/inetd.conf is ok.
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd -Aol
I am trying to connect as someone already listed in /etc/passwd.

I have created /etc/shells and filled it up (inc shell used by ger above)

/etc/ftpusers - I have added ger (see above attempoted lpogin)
/etc/ftphosts - I have added the lines
allow ger xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - the IP of the machine I am working oin
allow ger xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - the IP of another machine I am trying to connect
from.
/etc/ftpgroups - I will add a line which is in this format
madeupgroupname:cryptedp/word:entryin /etc/group
The fact that I haven't done this yet shouldn't prevent me from gaining access
via ftp at the moment though should it?

/etc/ftpaccess - I just copied the file ftpaccess.heavy from doc/examples and
renamed it.
/etc/conversions - I copied the file ftpconversions.solaris and renamed it.

Anymore ideas would be most welcome and very much appreciated.

inetd is running the wrong FTP daemon.

Hello,

we are using wuftpd 2.4 (yes, we will upgrade..) on a Sun Ultra with
SunOS 5.6 installed.

The main problem is that the process of opening a connection to the
server is very slow. The speed of further requests (while the connection
is still open) is ok.

I suppose this is a sun-feature, but maybe anyone can help!

I'm in the processing of upgrading from wu-2.4 to 2.5.0 and would like
to know how to properly customize the file "pathnames.h". Is there a
help file somewhere which explains how I decide which section applies to
my installation? This file is somwhat different from the current version
I have for wu-2.4.

Any advice would be appreciated.

sounds like a problem with DNS (or reverse-DNS) lookups, or AUTH on the
client-side. check your firewalls for AUTH and check your DNS
configuration. you'll want this working when you go to 2.5.0

The pathnames attempts to guess the correct locations for your OS .. well
actually, is uses the selection from your src/config/config.<os> file ..
so the best thing to do it select the location in the config.<os> and only
hack pathnames.h is you must. If you do hack pathnames.h it's probably
best to scrog all the #if crap and just #define the stuff you need.

it would be cool if we get a configure script to have it check to see if
wu-ftpd is currently installed, and then look at the binary and get the
current locations out of there during the configure step.

Thanks for the advice, but you didn't answer my question.

Is what I need to do possible with wu-ftpd?

Upgrading is very strongly recommended.

You are running version 2.4 .. which is another way of saying you have no
concerns about security. So why bother? Anyone who wants it already has
root access on the machine.

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

ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/

wu-ftpd Resource Center: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
wu-ftpd FAQ: http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html
wu-ftpd list archive: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/

--

The current release has features which will probably do what you want and
won't cause you all sorts of customer-support headaches by using different
port numbers. If the base release does not do enough, consider using
BeroFTPD instead.

He did answer the question, but you chose to ignore the answer. Your
question is a FAQ and version 2.4 does have so many security holes that
advertising that you are running it essentially gives a hacker the keys to
your system.

Yes, but not using the exact methodology you propose; and if you read the
FAQ and the manual pages it will tell you how. Also check Bero ftpd.

Has the resource center been moved or hacked? I went to the landfield.com
site and it currently has a page full of information from the Electronic
Fear Foundation with not a single word about wu-ftpd...The list archive
seems to be intact though..

The WU-FTPD Resource Center is down for a day or so for maintenance.

As far as I know, nobody has done DG/UX yet.

What I'd do is look through the existing files, maybe trying each, to see
if any produces a working daemon. If none do, try to choose one which is
closest to your needs.

The main files you want to look at are:

makefiles/Makefile.<OS-name>
src/config/config.<OS-name>
src/makefiles/Makefile.<OS-name>
support/makefiles/Makefile.<OS-name>

If you've lived a good life, thinking only pure thoughts, these are the
only files you'll need to change. If not, you'll end up hacking the
source files and everyone of us who works on them send you our sympathy.

You will need to choose a new <OS-name> for DG/UX and edit the INSTALL and
build files to include this name in the documentation.

When you get it all working, create a context-diff (diff -c) of your
changed files, include copies of your new files, tar and compress (gzip
preferred but compress is OK) and upload the lot to
ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/incoming then email [email protected]
letting us know your upload is there.

Sorry, I am new to the list as of today, been reading the faq and
also trying to get to the mail list archive http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive
but have not been able to get any reponse from that server.
So I will just ask my question.

I am trying to get wu-ftpd to compile on my DG/UX Intel system today with
no success. This system is running dg/ux R4.20MU02. Can some kind person
please point me to a location that has the info to compile on my system, or
has this never been attempted with dg/ux ?

My thanks in advance

Then the upload clause didn't match for your guest users.

Do you have virtual interfaces configured on the network card ?
If this is the case, the solution is make FTP connection to the real IP
of the network card instead of connect to one of the virtual IPs.

I had the same problem...
I had in the DNS configuration that the IP of my FTP host was one of the
virtual interfaces.
The same problem you say, and more problems (strangeous errors like:
blocking call cancelled in ws-ftp client, etc...)
When I change the IP of my FTP host to the real IP of the network card,
all the problems desapear :-)

Read upload.configuration.HOWTO, it was included in your 2.5.0 package.

In section "Upload restrictions for guest users" no any about change
owner and group on upload files... Do it mean so I cannot change
owner, group and attribute on upload files by guest user?

Take out the
allow-retrieve class=admin / core
And see what happens. If that fixes it, you were _not_ 'webstats' but
wre, in fact, 'admin'.

> Can anybody spot what I'm doing wrong ?

Frankly, no. But the class= stuff is too simplistic and could be the
cause of your problem.

Looking at what you're trying to do I'd suggest it's be more secure to
make your users guest rather than classify them based upon IP number. I'd
also suggest 'admin' has no place on a server connected to the Internet.

Hmm. I thought iswas documented. anyway, the idea is to stop the parse
for parameters (class=) and start looking for filenames. that way you can
mark a file named 'class=cs-101' (non-)retrievable.

Yes. I upload by guest users a *NEW* file and ownership and

upload file by anonymous.

I did not overwrite any file.

Re: My WU-FTP chrooted "guest" users

Does anyone have any idea why my chrooted users can still change the names
of /usr, /etc, /bin, etc. under their chrooted directrories and also erase
files that don't belong to them? My file permissions on all of these files
state that they belong to root and are owned by group system, and indeed are
not even writable. My user's permission should be such that they can't even
touch them! They can delete any file in their chrooted directory no matter
the owenerships.

My users are just normal users created in the normal fashion.

When a user FTP's in to their chrooted direory (using the guest-group
method) suddenly possess these powers. Strangely enough, the chroot is
working perfectly, they cannot see the files in /etc, or any directory that
they do not create, nor can they escape their own file structure to any
other part of the file system.

I spent quite a bit of time today trying out all sorts of different senarios
to no avail.

Anyone have any ideas? My only though is that perhaps they are gaining some
sort of root uid when loging in, but I have set everything up so they should
not be able to do that. . .

I'd be greatful for any help!

Ian

The WU-FTPD Resources Center web site (http://www.landfield.com/) was,
indeed hacked today. I have spoken with Kent about this and he will
be taking the server offline for a day or so while he uses the
opportunity to also upgrade to a newer version of his operating
system.

Intitial checks show the only area effected was the web site; the FTP
site (ftp://ftp.landfield.com/) appears unchanged.

Good morning all..

I'm installing a 40Gb FTP site for the ISP where i'm working.
I installed yesterday the wu-ftpd 2.5.0 but i have some troubles to fix.
For that large number of Gb i did an array system via raid then i mounted
the raid system on this way..

/dev/hda3 5809071 221057 5287197 4% /
/dev/md0 4100100 201796 3686656 5% /array-0
/dev/md1 8065384 13 7647247 0% /array-1
/dev/md2 8164119 2822563 4918254 36% /array-2
/dev/md3 8643828 325676 7871956 4% /array-3
/dev/md4 8643828 3671936 4525696 45% /array-4

The FTP root directory is created on /array-0/ftp and i did a link on the
root like
ftp -> /array-0/ftp//

The problem now is..
under the FTP structure i insered various link like for examples..

ftp:/ftp/pub# pwd
/ftp/pub
ftp:/ftp/pub# dir -l
total 8
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 14 Jun 8 10:31 Linux -> /array-4/Linux/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 4096 Jun 4 12:45 mac/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 4096 May 27 15:23 windows98/

When i enter the FTP via anonymous i can't even join to linked directory..
if i enter with root i can.

ftp> cd pub
250 CWD command successful.
ftp> dir
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 4 root wheel 4096 Jun 8 08:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 4096 Jun 8 10:00 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 14 Jun 8 08:31 Linux -> /array-4/Linux
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 4096 Jun 4 10:45 mac
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 4096 May 27 13:23 windows98
226 Transfer complete.
ftp> cd Linux
550 Linux: No such file or directory.
ftp>

Anyone can help me out with this strange problem ?

Another question then.. how can i modify the ftpaccess file for permit to
view the welcome.msg file before the login prompt ? normally it come after
the login to the FTP site.

Thanks in advice for your help.

I'm using wu-ftpd-2.4.2-vr17 on Solaris 2.6, and cannot get this feature to
work.

Here is my ftpaccess file
=========
class admin real localhost admin1-host admin2-host
class webstats real stats-host 192.168.68.0/23
class cust1 real cust1-host
class cust2 real cust2-host

noretrieve / core
allow-retrieve class=admin / core
allow-retrieve class=cust1 /disk2/wwwroots/cust1/htdocs
allow-retrieve class=cust2 /disk2/wwwroots/cust2/htdocs
allow-retrieve class=webstats /disk2/wwwroots

compress yes *
tar yes *

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

passive ports 57.6.80/23 21000 22000

passwd-check none warn

greeting brief
email [email protected]
========

The intention is that no customer can retrieve any files, unless explicitly
allowed by an allow-retrieve command.
When I log in from 192.168.68.0/23 (ie. as class=webstats), I am always able
to retrieve files in /etc, despite the noretrieve command.
If I comment out the "allow-retrieve class=admin / core" entry, then the
server does refuse to fetch /etc/passwd, but it also refuses to fetch valid
files, eg. /disk2/wwwroots/cust1/htdocs/index.htm
It's as if I'm always treated as class=admin.

Can anybody spot what I'm doing wrong ?
Also, what is the meaning of the undocumented, optional "-" field in the
allow-retrieve directive (comes before the filename list).

Thanks in advance
Yusef

Not so strange.

This is an FAQ. Anonymous FTP is chroot'd (cf: man 2 chroot) so symbolic
links will *NOT* work.

I'd suggest re-evaluating the mount points and anonymous FTP filesystem
layout.

man ftpaccess, search for 'banner'

Thanks for your reply,

I tried the directory permissions as per your suggestion below (although I
think I had tried them before) and ended up with this:

drwx--x--x 6 rick ricks 512 Jun 10 09:46 rick

Here are the permissions of the files in the directory:

d--x--x--x 2 root system 512 Jun 09 17:46 bin
d--x--x--x 2 root system 512 Jun 09 15:13 dev
d--x--x--x 3 root system 512 Jun 09 16:27 etc
-r--r--r-- 1 root system 5 Jun 10 10:09 poo
d--x--x--x 3 root system 512 May 21 12:22 usr

With this current set of permissions, when my user "rick" FTPs in, he can
re-name any of these directories and can delete the file "poo." He cannot
delete the directories however, nor can he move out of his chrooted
environment. I can't understand why a normal user would have the power to
delete a file owned by root. Nor do I understand why he has the power to
re-name a directory that is not even writeable!

Any further ideas?

Ian

Yes. Go buy a book on basic Unix. Read the section of permissions.

Subject: HELP with chrooted guest account file sharing?!

X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

As users are prone to do, our users are constantly coming up with new and
creative ways to break things. %:^(

Here's the problem.
We have a host (DEC Alpha,DU4.0D,wu-ftpd v2.4.2) with anon. ftp and chrooted
guest accounts. A programmer wants to be able to:
- ftp in as herself
- cd to a chrooted guest account directory
- put files in this directory
- have these files be available to those who ftp into the chrooted
guest account
- have the chrooted guest account be able to put files in its directory
Problem seems to be that if I put our programmer in the group that the
chrooted account has (misc), then when she ftps in she is automatically
chrooted, even though there's nothing in her password entry to cause this.
If the programmer does not share a group with the chrooted guest account, when
she puts files in that area they have her ownership, and guests cannot access
them.

Ownership is:
/usr/local/ftp/guest/[guest_account] [guest_account] xfer
/usr/local/ftp/guest/[guest_account]/[guest_created_files] [guest_account] misc
/usr/home/[programmer_account] [programmer_account] staff

/etc/passwd:
[guest_account] guest_uid,misc_gid
[programmer] programmer_uid,staff

/etc/group:
staff
misc
xfer programmer_account

How can we set this up so programmer can ftp in as herself, put files in
chrooted guest area, and have them be owned by, or at least share a group with,
the chrooted guest account?

Huge TIA!!!

Well, you need to upgrade anyway.

Simple solution: get 2.5.0 and RTFM (hint: real-uid)

Howdy!

Using Version wu-2.4(4) on HPUX 10.10.

First things first: when my regular user accounts have passwords
greater than 8 characters, the ftpd will not log them in. Change
that users password to 8 chars or less, no problem. What could be
causing this? Is this normal?

Second, what are the password policies for wuftp? How can I
configure them?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

OK. First, before you do anything else today, you need to upgrade. The
version you are running is so old and so insecure you might as well post
the IP address and root password (but you don't really have to because
crackers can get root access on the machine just as easily without them).

Don't know if it's normal on HP/UX. Do the longer passwords work for
telnet? If so, then, no, I'd say it's not normal.

What could be causing it? Probably one of the thousands of bugs in the
version you're running. Nobody's reported a similar problem with 2.5.0.

It has none.

You cannot.

The daemon uses whatever password handling functions you system has. So I
guess you can 'configure' them. All you need is vi and big brassy ...

Long passwords are what the references to bigcrypt() in the HP-UX code
are supposed to deal with; but I haven't tried to test this for
some time..

This problem is driving me MAD!

I would check the list archives, but all of the systems in the FAQ are not
responding.

I have a BSDI 4.0 system on a machine outside the firewall. I need to have a
directory to recieve uploads. I do not want the users to be able to create
directories in this directory.

I have been using 2.4.2beta18. It will allow uploads into the directory and
the creation of directories. Files uploaded have permissions of 644, no matter
what the upload directive says in /etc/ftpaccess.

2.5.0 will not allow uploads into the same directory. All uploads (no matter
what the upload directive says or file permissions) are met with " Permission
denied on server. (Upload)".

bin/ckconfig claims it is using the /etc/ftpaccess file. config.h claims that
the upload directive is understood. I get the same behaviour when I use the
prebuilt binaries from ftp.wu-ftpd.org.

Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on? I am under alot of heat on
this. We have been hit by warez kiddies twice now. I do not to have to deal
with it on a byweekly basis.

Thanks!

Has anyone seen any mention of this. When a new directory is created
in an unix directory and you connect to that directory with a
Netscape browser is ftp mode the year of the new directory is
incorrect. In my case its 1998. Other clients show the proper date.

Just wondering. I use a modified version of wuftpd

Also, I forgot to say that the same /etc/ftpaccess and version works correctly under Linux.

Well, I figured it out.

This is fscking weird!!!

The ftpd line in BSDI looked like:

/usr/lib/siteexec/ftpd -l -a -i

Changing the line to:

/usr/lib/siteexec/ftpd -a -l

resolved the problem!!!

And I thought SCSI was voodoo!

The order I quoted before is wrong. (I was quoting from memory.)

The order that works "-l -a"
The order that does not: "-a -l"

It *is* order dependant. I have tested it and reproduced it with the two
options under BSDI 4.0.

Hi,

My system has installed RH5.2 & wu-ftp-2.4.2 b18-2.1.rpm

I tried to create a test account by following the instruction from the
resource center but I face the problem below:

Account name: testftp
Home directory: /home/ftp/testftp
Chroot: /home/ftp

I can log on to the /testftp directory and I can cd to / and go back to
/testftp directory but ls command doesn't display any files and directories.

The ftp daemon doesn't take effect on the passwd file that I setup on
/home/ftp/etc/passwd. I tried to comment out the testftp account and I can
setup log on by using testftp.

Please point to the problem, Thanks in Advance.

Benny

This rpm is very old. I would suggest upgrading immediately to wu-ftpd 2.5.0
as the version in the rpm has a number of bugs and security holes.

This is an FAQ. The FAQ can be found at:

wu-ftpd Resource Center: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
wu-ftpd FAQ: http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html
wu-ftpd list archive: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/

In short, the problem is that /bin/ls does not exist within the chroot
environment. You have to either build a statically linked version of ls and
place it in the chrooted area's bin directory, or copy the standard system ls
to the chrooted areas bin dir and also copy all the required libraries to the
chrooted areas lib dir.

The password file in the chrooted area is not used for login authentication.
The standard system /etc/passwd file is used for this. The password file in
the chrooted area is necessary so that ls -l returns user names instead of
numerical UID's

Hope this helps,

James

You almost certainly don't need this.

This 'no nobody nogroup 0000 nodirs' crap was Stan's way of trying to fix
the upload clause. It didn't work and he didn't see why, but I guess this
solved the complaint he'd received to it got added to the documentation.
With 2.5.0 you don't need it but it wasn't spotted in the documentation
until too late to be removed.

> Permissions did not change. Why? :(

Because 2.5.0 (being descended from VR upgrades) interprets the upload
clauses differently; hence my upload.configuration.HOWTO and the example
site .. the fact your site even marhinally works is due to the default
behavior of the daemon and not to your ftpaccess file or directory layout.

Why the change? Because, although you've never noticed it, the upload
clauses you were using were being mis-interpreted by the daemon. Maybe
you accepted that, I certainly didn't. 2.5.0 is much more robust, but
requires you to do things more precisely.

As I've been saying for months now, "If your ftraccess was broken, it will
completely fail under the new daemon."

Here's a few different ways to do this better (not correctly, mind you,
but better .. you really need to completely rethink your security model
since the one you're currently using is way to lax):

ftpaccess #1
------------
#
# This works exactly as your old ftpaccess did under 2.4* which is to say:
# not very securely.
#
# Everyone can upload into any user's home and create directories to to
# any depth. Created directories are unusable but you don't care since
# they never were anyway.
#
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs
upload /home/ftp /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs
upload /home/ftp/user1 * no
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs
upload /home/ftp/user2 * no
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs

ftpaccess #2
------------
#
# This makes the created directories usable; which makes the site even
# less secure, but what-the-heck.
#
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user1 * no
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user2 * no
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777

ftpaccess #3
------------
#
# This limits directory creation to a single level. The site is a bit
# more secure than under #2.
#
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp /user1/* yes user1 user1 0600 nodirs
upload /home/ftp /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp /user2/* yes user2 user2 0600 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/user1 * no
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user1/* yes user1 user1 0600 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user1 /user2/* yes user2 user2 0600 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/user2 * no
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user1 yes user1 user1 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user1/* yes user1 user1 0600 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user2 yes user2 user2 0600 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/user2 /user2/* yes user2 user2 0600 nodirs

ftpaccess #4
------------
#
# chgrp your user's home to be group-owned by the user's private group
# rather than the 'ftpusers' group. This makes the site even more secure
# and allows us to simplify things so we don't need a set of upload rules
# for each user.
#
# To make this work, we need to specifically deny upload for "special"
# areas. I'll assume a Linux FTP site with just ~ftp/bin, ~ftp/dev,
# ~ftp/etc and ~ftp/lib directories. You may need to add a few more.
#
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /bin no
upload /home/ftp /dev no
upload /home/ftp /etc no
upload /home/ftp /lib no
upload /home/ftp /* yes * * 0640 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp /*/* yes * * 0640 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/* * no
upload /home/ftp/* /bin no
upload /home/ftp/* /dev no
upload /home/ftp/* /etc no
upload /home/ftp/* /lib no
upload /home/ftp/* /* yes * * 0640 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/* /*/* yes * * 0640 nodirs

ftpaccess #5
------------
#
# mkdir ~ftp/users, move all your user's homes into it. This makes it so
# we don't have to list all the "special" areas.
#
upload /home/ftp * no
upload /home/ftp /users/* yes * * 0640 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp /users/*/* yes * * 0640 nodirs
upload /home/ftp/users/* * no
upload /home/ftp/users/* /users/* yes * * 0640 dirs 0777
upload /home/ftp/users/* /users/*/* yes * * 0640 nodirs

I'll stop at this point. I was going to continue to refine the site, but
I have this feeling your users really do like being able to trample on
each other's files. I certainly wouldn't allow a site configured in this
way on the Internet; but maybe your site is not connected to any networks
at all so security isn't an issue.

Subject: ftpwho on Redhat 6.0
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Since the release of Redhat 6.0, there have been a number of questions
concerning the ftpwho command.

Appearently, Redhat has changed (once again) the command syntax of the ps
command.

Yesterday, Redhat released news RPMs for 4.2, 5.2 and 6.0 (these RPMs are
at the wu-ftpd.org FTP site and will be propogating to the mirrors over
the next few days).

For those already running 2.5.0 on Redhat 6.0, the only change you need is
the correction for the ftpwho command. If you are *NOT* running Redhat
6.0, you do *NOT* need this patch.

I was originally going to release this patch into the wu-ftpd.org
quickfixes area as well, but since there is no good way right now to
determine the Redhat version when comiling the daemon, I'm holding off on
that.

Subject: Problem with wu-ftpd between linux and VMS
X-Listprocessor-Version: 8.0 -- ListProcessor(tm) by CREN

Hi everybody.

Before claiming for a bug, I would like to hear your comments on the following
problem I am experiencing.

I use RedHat 6.0 (kernel 2.2.5-15) and wu-ftpd-2.4.2vr17-3 . When I try
and transfer files (both ASCII and bin, both large and small files) to/from
a Digital Alpha running OpenVMS Version 7.1 and MultiNet FTP Server V4.0(15)
the ftp process simply doesn't work (at times).

More in detail, I succeed to open a connection, log in with user and pass,
give a put/get command, receive the information that the put/get process
has started. After that, the process simply does not ... proceed. The file to
be transferred is created with 0 bytes, and does not grow in size, as time
goes on. I have to kill the process in order to stop it.

I did not experience any such problem with Mandrake/RedHat 5.2 and
wu-ftpd-2.4.2b18-2.

Please, report any comment directly to my address below, after removing spaces.
Thank you in advance,

Giuseppe.

Could you be more clear? It appears to me you are discussing problems
with the MultiNet FTP Server and/or some (unidentified) client on your
Linux box. WU-FTPD does not appear to be involved.

The patch is very, very old so that's probably why it didn't work.

I don't use Solaris, so you'll need to see if someone else has more
current instructions.

Question: why bother? Setting up the server for a normal ls executable is
fairly easy. The instructions which come with the Solaris PKG file file
2.5 (at ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/) should tell you everything you need to
know. The FA Qshould answer any other questions you might have.

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

Hello All,
I am running 2.5.0 with the core for Solaris 2.6.

I want to add some users to the system for telnet purposes. I wanted to
create the user directories under /home ex /home/user1

I noticed that I cannot add or change the file permissions for /home.
In digging around I discovered that /home is mounted over my system's
/home. I can work around this by using another directory but, I was just
wondering why this happened?

Chuck

You told it to do that.

1) You have a single drive. You partitioned it and told the system to
mount a partition at /home.

2) You have multiple drives. You told the system to mount a drive at
/home.

3) You use NFS. You told the system to import a filesystem via NFS and
mount it at /home.

All mounted filesystems go "over a directory". That's just the way Unix
does it. It does not matter what you do to that directory; when you mount
the filesystem, the permissions/ownerships/etc come from the mounted
filesystem, not the (no longer used) directory.

4) It's a solaris default install where /home is automatically owned by
the automounter, making it impossible to use.

See manpages for automount and associated.

Hello,
It is indeed the case that it always treats me as being of class 'admin',
but the question is how could that happen, when my source IP address doesn't
match those specified in the "class admin" directive.
Is there something subtle about the order of these directives ?

I also have an ftphosts file restricting each user to a particular set of IP
addresses. Could there be any strange interactions between that and
ftpaccess ?

I have considered making each user a chroot guest, but I was looking for an
easier alternative to creating one chroot paritition per user.

Thinking about it, what would be really nice for situations like mine, would
be a directive which told wuftpd to disallow any access to a pathname whose
prefix didn't match the current user's home directory (using realpath() at
all times, to avoid any problems with links).

Thanks
Yusef

The class directives are first-matched. I think the problem is you're not
using one of the addresses listed in the 'admin' class line, so the daemon
is falling through to a later class.

No.

That is most secure.

Thining more about it, what is really needed is for users to RTFM.

Try installing the updated manapges. Then read the ftpaccess manpage.
Search for 'restricted'.

There are a few legal consequences to using SSL in the US. Mainly you
cannot allow anyone outside the US to have the program in any form. Also,
the WU-FTPD Development Group cannot help you with coding hints.

Remember, the FTP clients will all need to be SSL-ized or it won't work.

That said: there's an old SSL hack for Beta-13 referenced from the SSLeay
site. ISTM some company is also offering FTP via SSL .. he usually jumps
in with an ad for his product when someone asks about SSL, so check back
in a few hours or go through the mailing list archives for his last ad.

With these two exceptions I know of noone doing WU-FTPD via SSL.

There are some SSL tunneleing packages out there. I've heard that if
you're very very careful in how you configure them you can get them to
handle FTP. That'd mean you'd not need to hack the daemon or the clients.
I tried this once on a lack. It sorta worked but seemed very fragile.

Hi,

When I use a guest account to login, I can list all the files but without
owner and group displayed on each files. I have the group file in the etc
directory which located in the chroot directory that I defined. When I log
on as a real user, I have all the files attributes displayed correctly. What
have I missed?

I have created a symbolic link file to a NFS type directory in the guest
account.

E.g ftp => /mnt/ftpsite which /mnt/ftpsite is network drive site on other
server.

When I tried to cd ftp as a guest account, it come up with "No such file or
directory" but I don't have the problem when I log on as real user. Please
point me to the right path.

Thanks in Advance for your help!

Benny

RTFFAQ. Symlinks do *NOT* work for guest or anonymous users.

Hello,
Thanks for the replies. I am posting my resolution for those monitoring
the group and the archives.
I over looked the obvious thinking that the permissions were
something 2.5.0 did for security reasons
I simply removed /home from /etc/auto_master. The other solution was
to create a home directory in /export/home.

Does anyone know if there is any more work being done on this? I switched
over to this because of the Virtual FTP support, but logging appears to be
broken with it, but nobody seems to be talking/dealing with this 'branch'
anymore :(

Ya know, I'm going through the BeroFTPD code right now, trying to figure
out why the 'logfile' directive isn't doing anything, and, for the life of
me, I can't find *where* its actually used in the per-virtual-host
ftpaccess files...

Does anyone have this working, or does it just plain not work?

Also, does anyone have an ETA on when the Virtual FTP stuff is going to be
folded back into WU-FTPD?

I have a version of wu-ftpd.2.5.0 that has the newvirt-050 code rolled in.
It is in local testing now. It also supports for the existing virtual
hosting in 2.5.0. As soon as I have finishing testing it I'm going to roll
it into the CVS tree so it will be available in a future release.

autogroup only works for anonymous users (or so I think from reading the
man page .. never use it myself).

Use the upload clause to control the ownership of uploaded files. You
should always use upload to control anonymous uploads. Read the
upload.configuration.HOWTO for information you'll need.

These are two entries in my password file:

jb:x:1024:1001:Jim Budler:/home/jb:/bin/tcsh
guest:x:4000:4000:Guest User:/home/ftp/./home/guest:/usr/sbin/no

If I ftp in as me:
230 User jb logged in.
ftp> cd ~guest
550 /home/guest: No such file or directory.
ftp>

cd ~ftp/home/guest works.
cd /home/ftp/home/guest works.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but the same password file entries
worked in 2.4.2, (before I joined the mailing list and found out how
out of date I was).

wu-ftpd 2.5.0
Solaris 7 Sparc

I've tried both #define ALTERNATE_CD and #undef ALTERNATE_CD.

Thanks,

Jim Budler

Solaris has password caching which sometimes gets in the way. Try turning
it off. All kinds of odd things happen to WU-FTPD when it's on.

The /home/ftp/etc/passwd entries should look like:
guest::4000:4000::/home/guest:

No 'jb' entry there since 'jb' isn't a guest or, if he is, isn't in the
same guest-root area.

When 'jb' does `cd ~guest` it should be the same as your two examples
which work. I'd guess the 'guest' passwd entry from ~ftp/etc/passwd was
cached in an earlier session since I can see no other reason why 'jb'
would ever see the ~ftp/etc/passwd abbreviated home for 'guest'.

I've completely disabled nscd. It's not even running.
There is no change in behavior.

i will make static ls in solaris 2.5.1,but it is unsuccessed,
i do some step:
1. get fileutils-3.16 from your favourite GNU mirror site.
2. Unpack
3. patch < ls-static.patch
4. copy static-ls.c (see below) to the fileutils-3.16/src/ subdirectory.

5. cd into fileutils-3.16
6. run configure
7. make
8. cd into src
9. test with truss ./ls -la 2> err

but i make NO.3, it is unsuccessed,
it is available about this:
%patch < ls-static.patch
Looks like a new-style context diff.
File to patch:

but i don't know about reason,
this is ls-static.patch,i found at
http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/support/static-ls.how-to:

Why? I've yet to see a convincing argument that it was worth the bother.

I seem to recall Sun's /usr/bin/patch needs more prompting than GNU patch
or Larry Wall's original patch program from way back when. Try telling it
'Makefile.in' or 'src/Makefile.in' or 'fileutils-3.16/src/Makefile.in' or
something like that. Or try '-p 0' or '-p 1' flags. Or just install GNU
patch!

Hardware: Sparc 5
OS: Solaris 2.6

I've just upgraded to 2.5.0 and it seems to be working correctly. I have
noticed one difference on my platform going from 2.4.2 to 2.5.0. When I
initiate a connection, the server responds normally with:

Connected to ftp.hostname.com.

but then it takes about 8-10 secs for the login question to come up. The
2.4.2 version responded almost instantaneously. Is 2.5.0 doing something
different for authentication that causes this delay? Is there a something
in the config that I left out that would speed this up?

Any ideas appreciated.

Change

#undef USE_RFC931

in the top level config.h

It means that your clients don't answer the auth request in a
timely fashion or at all. If you are behind a firewall you should check
that ident/auth requests are allowed to go through. If it is actually the
clients you may wish to take the action above to prevent the daemon from
trying this level of extra authentication.

2.5.0 uses forward and reverse DNS lookups during the initial negotiation.
A bad DNS configuration can slow things down.

2.5.0 uses AUTH be default. Normally systems which do not support AUTH
return an ICMP Port Not Available error. Some systems or networks
firewall AUTH by dropping the packets completely. This can slow things
down considerably since the daemon must wait for a timeout rather than
erroring immedeately.

After checking your DNS configuration, and testing to see if the problem
is AUTH-related, if the problem is not fixed, you can try compilling the
daemon without one or both of these features. Note: disabling DNS lookups
disables a number of security features and causes '!nameserved' to be TRUE
at all times.

This was the problem, I enabled acceptance of ident from the ftp server and
it gives me the login right away.

Thanks for your ideas.

Good day everyone!

How does wuftp determine cwdir?

I have a real user (uid=username, gid=users) whose home directory is
/usrA/username. When he logs in telnet or ftp, he is placed there.

I have a directory elsewhere where he needs to place files:
/home/data/development.

/home is owned by root:data (i.e., owner:group) with perms 755.
/home/data is owned by me:data with perms 751.
/home/data/development is owned by username:data with perms 751.

When he telnets in, he cd's to /home/data/development . When he
does a pwd it returns the full path.
He ftps in and then cd's to /home/data/development. If he does a
pwd, it returns "." If he tries to uplaid -ooops! freudian slip!-
upload a file there he gets:
"553 Could not determine cwdir: Permission denied."

He is not chrooted (in /etc/passwd), he is not guestgrouped (in
ftpaccess).

What gives? How does wuftp determine cwdir? Why can he not ftp?
BTW, he has no problem in his home directory /usrA/username.

Much admiration,

Sorry. Something I forgot to mention but may be important:

Does ftpd run with an effective uid and gid? I set it up to run as
ftp:data , which is why I thought this directory structure would
work (since group "data" is in the loop on /home/data/development).

That depends on the version and compile options. Most often the daemon
uses the cwd() function. If MAPPING_CHDIR is used, it uses an internal
version of cwd() which remembers symlinks, etc., like a command shell.

In 2.5.0, this come from an upload (in src/extensions.c: upl_check()
function). It means the fb_realpath() function errored out trying to
determine the real pathname for "." .. the cwd. Possible errors include
the inability to read the parent directories. This should have all been
fixed in 2.5.0 even for NFS-mounted areas.

If you're not running 2.5.0; upgrade. If you still have problems, read
the FAQ, the upload.configuration.HOWTO and the 2.5.0 ftpaccess manpage.

I'm hosting a few web sites on my machine and I'm trying
to set up multiple anonymous ftp servers, one for each site.
All of the sites are mapped to the same IP address by my DNS.

Apache httpd is able to differentiate the different web sites
using virtual hosting. You say something like:
<VirtualHost www.yourcompany.com>
DocumentRoot /home/yourcompany/htdocs
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost www.mycompany.com>
DocumentRoot /home/mycompany/htdocs
</VirtualHost>
and it is able to keep them straight based just on the name.

wu-ftpd has the beginnings of a virtual host facility, but it
is based on having a different IP address for each company.
There is no way I can get that many IP addresses.
So, I would like to be able to say (in ftpaccess):
virtual ftp.yourcompany.com root /home/yourcompany/ftp
virtual ftp.mycompany.com /home/mycompany/ftp
and have it work (it doesn't).

Are there any patches available to add this capability?
If not, does anyone have any pointers on where to start hacking?

Thanks,

Doug

Hello all,

I'm new in wu-ftp and want to know who defines these variables that
are checked in pathnames.h respectively which variables belong to
which plattform (AIX, Sun,...), so that I can define the location of
my configuration files, logging files, ...

In special who sets USE_ETC, USE_VAR, USE_LOG, ...

I compiled wu-ftp 2.5.0 on AIX 4.3 with delivered config.aix and see within the
syslog that always /usr/local/... is taken which is not a good idea on our
system.

Thanks for any help

This answer applies to *ALL* FTP servers. Not just WU-FTPD.

The FTP protocol does *NOT* support name-based virtual hosting. There are
*NO* patches available to add it. Such patches are *NOT* possible.

The FTP Working Group is developing a new FTP protocol specification which
will, when adopted, suport name-based virtual hosting. Currently, there
are only two servers and one client which support this feature; these are
solely for the working gorup members to test the facility and cannot be
used by mortals.

There is no point in telling you where to start hacking since it wouldn't
do you any good. If you got the server to work you couldn't use the
fature since your customers don't have any software which could make use
of it.

src/config/config.aix is the place to set these.

WarFTPD creates WUcompatiable log files..
I was wondering if someone could direct me to the real log specs so that I
can
write a simple command line util to parse the logs.. (i mean yes I could
guess the field lengths etc but i want it to be as close to exact as
possible)

Hello,

We are running ACE/Server (Security Dynamic product) which keeps our system
secure. However WUFTP is not working with this product.

Today we had discussion on Keon product (another enhancement to our system's
security from Security Dynamics)and we are wondering how WUFTP can work with
this product.

Any thoughts?

Best Regards,
..Magda

No idea what Keon is, or ACE/Server. What do you mean when you say "WUFTP
is not working"?

ACE/Server is a product with cards that show a changing number, and the
user has to log in with username + password+number on card.

wu-ftpd has to be linked against the libraries of this product in order to
enable this functionality. It's probably yet another way of checking
passwords.

It takes a wu-ftpd developer with access to the development kit for either
packages or at least the libraries to be able to make wu-ftpd support it.

And we know the folk at SD are using WU-FTPD as their base for their FTP
server since they're having problems with Umich's AIX box doing large
files.

I'd suggest the proper forum then would be to as SD when they'll have
their 2.5.0-based server out.

I'm trying to make it so anonymous users have a total byte-limit. I've put
the following in the ftpaccess file:

class anonftp anonymous *

byte-limit total 50 anonftp

I am assuming that the 50 means 50 bytes, which I'm using for test purposes.

I log in as anonymous, upload a 46 byte file, then a 236 byte file.. which
at this point should exceed the limit, then upload another file. It allows
upload after upload.

What am I missing???

I am having a few problems with the new release of wu-ftpd and was
Just wondering if anyone else was having these problems also. I
have several users set up as explained in the 'Guest' setup method,
and they were working fine till this latest release. However, now I
have a problem with these users being able to create directories or
files with spaces in the names.

MKD test test test
550 test test test: Permission denied on server. (Filename (accept))

STOR test test test.txt
550 test test test.txt: Permission denied on server. (Filename (accept))

I was just curious as if there was a way to fix this, or if anyone
else was having this problem. It seems to be only with people set up
with a "Guest" account. Real users have none of these problems.

Also, just recently I have noticed that even after users time out, die,
or disconnect from the server, some of the times the user continues to
be listed as having a process running when checking users with

%ps axwww | grep ftpd
19576 ? S 0:00 ftpd: hybrid.phoenix.speedchoice.com: daleet:
IDLE

I haven't looked into the 'ftpwho' fix yet, so I still use this method
of checking via 'ps'. Has anyone else noticed processes that hang? (Hang
is not really the word I am looking for, but maybe you understand what
I mean).

Also, I compiled wu-ftpd rather than using the rpm due to the fact I had
to configure it per the instructions at
http://flashfxp.phix-it.com/wuftpd.html in case any of that may make a
difference in what is wrong.
Also, I am running Redhat6.0 at the current time.

Any help on this matter would be appreciated!

Is it possible you're not 'anonftp'? Is there another class in the
ftpaccess file which could be matching anonymous? Or more basica: are you
sure you're anonymous?

It's been a long time since I tested this, but it should be blocking
uploads or downloads after the 236-byte upload ..

log commands .. sends 'em to the syslog

log security .. records additional stuff when the user tries one of these

I use 'log security' here and, while I don't see the DELE command, I do
see every file deleted and every error attempting to delete files. .. all

it's not a problem and a fix isn't needed. you told it to do this by
using 'path-filter' in your ftpaccess file.

to allow spaces, you'll need to use GNU regex and use [:SPACE:] in the
path filter.

ftpwho shouldn't be a problem for you since you're not runnig Redhat 6.0

Dunno what that site has to say but I've found virtually _all_ wu-ftpd
sites except Koo's FAQ are **WAY** out of date.

> Also, I am running Redhat6.0 at the current time.

Huh? Did oyu install fresh or upgrade? Redhat says
'ps axwww' won't work on 6.0 so I guess you upgraded?
since 'ps axwww' works for you, ftpwho shouod be no problem.

Here is a snapshot of ftpwho after I log in as anonymous:

Service class local: augbur 17692 0.0 6.3 2348 1892 ? S 11:59:00
0:00 ftpd: vancouver-gw2-e0.columbian.com: augbur: IDLE - 1 users ( 20

I also have tried to this with a guest account with

and get the same results, no blocking.

Hi folks:

When I configure a guest group, the user's group don't see nothing
in his directory (they use a cuteftp). Any Idea. I want to make a
ftp session that only see his files and his directory.

Incomplete ls setup. This is a FAQ.

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

Thanks, I realized what I had screwed up after reading the man on
path-filter, and it pretty much explained why only my guest accounts
were acting that way. I have commented out my path-filter line for now
since I am not sure exactly how to add a 'space' to the line, even after
your instructions to use gnu regex [:SPACE:]. Maybe this will help?

I have this as pretty much directly copied from 'guest' howto:
%path-filter guest /etc/pathmsg ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$ ^\. ^-

I know that the characters within the []'s are the allowed, but I am not
Sure how to add a space to that, I have tried a few different things.

Yes, I am running RH 6.0.

The site (http://flashfxp.phix-it.com/wuftpd.html)states how to allow
fxp transfers in 2.5.0, where they were allowed in the rpm for 2.4.2.
Section was added a few days after 2.5.0 was released.

Hmmm, I don't know what to say about that. I am running full install
of RH 6 since I did a clean install to try to learn the setup process
a little better from the other times I have done installs. But when
running ftpwho, I get:

%Service class all:
% 1 ? S 0:04 init
% 1 ? S 0:04 init
% - 2 users (no maximum)

No detailed information about anything, that's why I resort to the:
%ps axwww | grep ftpd
% 19576 ? S 0:00 ftpd: hybrid.phoenix.speedchoice.com: daleet:
% IDLE
as it tells me the users, etc...

Once again, thanks for your help so far!

Hi folsk,
I reconfigure my wu-ftpd (guestgroup), but when I connect (by cuteftp)
they dont see nothing, but in MSDOS(ftp) mode I see my files. There is
a problem with the ls in guest access.
Bye

You need to have a copy of the ls binary and appropriate libraries under
the chrooted home for your guestgroup.

For more details, please read the FAQ and guest howto documents, both
available at Kent Landfield's WU-FTPD Resource Center :
http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/ (follow the "Related Documents" link)
or individually available at :

Good luck !

> what libraries about ls, i read the how-to guest.

Some operating systems support dynamic linking in addition to static linking.
For example, in Solaris 2 the vendor-supplied ls is dynamically linked, and
needs to be able to load several additional libraries (kept in /usr/lib)
in order to be able to work. In this case, you need a usr/lib under the
chrooted directory of the guest user, which has the libraries ls wants
(you won't need all the libraries, just those used by ls).

I don't know if the ls under SUSE linux is dynamic or statically linked, but
if you already have a bin/ls under the chrooted area, and it still isn't
working, then maybe it is dynamic and you'll need to figure out what extra
libraries are needed. You can get an idea of this by running chroot to
put yourself in the guest group home directory and running ls under
truss/trace; ldd should also help.

The reason that it works OK for some FTP clients and not for others is that
the FTP protocol supports two commands to list directories - LIST and NLST.
One of these causes wuftpd to run a built-in command which just returns the
names of the files - this is what you see in the clients which work. The other
causes wuftpd to run the external "ls" command, which is what is happening
when you don't get anything listed.

I hope this explanation helps. I'm off home for the weekend now, so if you
have any more problems, please post to the list and hopefully someone else
will see it over the weekend and reply.

Good luck !

Cheers, Bob

Once is enough. Twice .. well maybe. But you're asking the same question
over and over again.

You have asked.

You have been answered.

Kindly stop trying to find new ways to ask the same question; the answer
will remain the same:

Your FTP server is not completely set up. You are missing parts of
programs. Instructions for correcting the problem are in the FAQ.
Read the bloomin' thing and do what it says.

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

The 'hanging' processes are probably just idle Windows users. Well, not
idle, but they look that way to you.

The problem is Microsoft doesn't seem capable of reading. When they can
read, the obviously are not capable of understanding. Internet Explorer
(all versions) does not comply with the RFC; it's not _really_ speaking
FTP .. just something close enough it works.

The workarround is to reduce the idle timeout and timeout limit on your
site. I use the following:

-t 300 <== Idle timeout of 5 minutes
-T 300 <== Maximum idle timeout of 5 minutes

This doesn't solve the problem but it should reduce it to the point of
minimal pain.

OK, I give .. what is 'fxp' and why should FTP support it at all?

Could you do a `which ps` and `ls -al` of that file and /bin/ps?

Anibal,

The ls command uses an internal (dameon code) ls program to list the file
in the directory. The ls -l calls the external operating system ls
program - and passes it the parameters. For that external program to
work, a number of things have to be set correctly...

1. the ls program must be available in the chroot envrironment in it's
normal location (/usr/bin/ls).

2. Any libraries requird by ls must also be in the chroot environment.
This is important if your ls uses your operating systems dynamic library
linking support. They must be located in /usr/lib/lib.....so.

3. Specific devices required by the ls program must be located in the
device directory of the chroot environment. At a minimum, you system will
probably require the zero device IT may require more. Put it in
/dev/zero.

Remember, wuftpd chroots for all anonymous and guest accesses.

Hope this helps.

hello

let me give you a little more information about that last mail that I sent.

I am running solaris 2.6 with wu 2.4.2 beta 15. the anonymous account is the
one I am haveing problems with. all real logins work fine but anonymous
through the web or a gui ftp client will not show any of the files in the ftp
directory.

real users can log in and see their files. I am lost with the anonymous user
though.

any ideas?

Very old and very insecure. You need to ugrade asap. Current version is
2.5.0

Hello,

I have recently upgraded from wu-ftpd 2.4x (I don't remember the
specific version) and am having some problems. Everything was working
fine before the upgrade, and now the server is not letting anyone login.

I'm running on Red Hat 5.2 with all of the post 5.2 fixes from Red Hat
applied. I am also running with shadowed MD5 passwords (and again, it
was working fine with the earlier version). Before I upgraded, I killed
inetd and deleted /usr/sbin/in.ftpd and deleted the files for the older
version (in /usr/wu-ftp). I downloaded the new one, gunzipped it and
untared it to /usr. I then installed it (changing no options in the
make file or the source) and restored my old files in /etc (ftpaccess,
ftpusers, ftphosts). I thought this would work, but now, no matter who
connects, it will not accept their username and password.

All that the logs say is "Jun 18 20:16:25 hostname ftpd[500]: failed
login from xyz @ localhost [127.0.0.1], xyz". The user's shell has an
entry in /etc/shells. The /etc/ftpaccess is as follows:

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

email [email protected]

shutdown /etc/ftp/shutmsg

class all real,guest,anonymous,groupx *

limit all 10 Any /etc/ftp/maxusers

loginfails 3

banner /etc/ftp/banner

guestgroup groupx

realgroup users

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

The user that is trying to login is not in the /etc/ftpusers. Any
information on what is happening would be much appreciated.

Chris,

You will need to build a chroot environment under your anonymous ftp tree.
For solaris, you will need the following (if I remember them all.....)

2 ./etc/passwd
2 ./etc/group
2 ./etc/nsswitch.conf
0 ./etc/.name_service_door
8 ./etc
0 ./dev/zero
2 ./dev
36 ./bin/ls
178 ./bin/gzip (if you use this one)
178 ./bin/gunzip (if you use this one also)
394 ./bin
2000 ./usr/lib/libc.so.1
10 ./usr/lib/libdl.so.1
320 ./usr/lib/ld.so.1
54 ./usr/lib/nss_files.so.1
1424 ./usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
38 ./usr/lib/libmp.so.2
3848 ./usr/lib
34 ./usr/platform/sun specific hardware library/lib/libc_psr.so.1
36 ./usr/platform/sun specific hardware library/lib
38 ./usr/platform/sun specific hardware library
40 ./usr/platform
4 ./usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/US/Eastern (or approriate zone info)
6 ./usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/US
8 ./usr/share/lib/zoneinfo
10 ./usr/share/lib
12 ./usr/share
3902 ./usr

Hope this helps

If that truely all the log says, then there's a problem with the password
authentication. I'd check the daemon is compiled for the password scheme
you're using.

One big change, for Linux, especially for Redhat, is the daemon now
automatically detects that PAM is installed and compiles to use it. If
you do not have/want PAM, you must add NOPAM=1 to the build command. The
deamon will then enable OPIE, if installed, and shadow passwords, if
installed. NOOPIE=1 disables OPIE.

Most likely, you're using a daemon compiled for PAM and your PAM config is
not set up for the ftp service.

I'm currently adapting 2.5.0 to use strong encryption (but not SSL).

Tim Hudson has a BSD FTP client and server using Eric Young's SSLeay
at ftp://ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/pub/Crypto/
I believe this uses the latest (0.9.0b) version of SSLeay.
He also has a diff for wu-2.4.2-beta11+SSL.diff.gz but I have no idea
what version of SSLeay that was for.

ftp://ftp.average.org/pub/wuftp+SSL/ have patches up to the release
version of wu-ftpd-2.4.2 wu-2.4.2+SSL.diff but once again, I have no
idea what version of SSLeay the are based on (or even if it matters).

Steve Acheson (Cisco) mentioned something called "ftpsshd" at the FIRST
conference last week. It can be used to catch ftp and forward it over
ssh.

(BTW my crypto version of wu-ftpd-2.5.0 is still ages away from being
public and at the moment it is horribly slow.)

No idea what Keon is, or ACE/Server. What do you mean when you say "WUFTP
is not working"?

I was wondering if it was possible for multiple log files to be
specified in a future version of WU. I'd like to be able to split
various bits of data from the damon to different places, like:

log commands anonymous /var/adm/anonymous.commands
log security guest, real /var/adm/security.real

Is this possible, or am I just dreaming really hard?

Thanks..

It is not currently possible. All the logging is currently done in one of
two ways: direct write for the xferlog and syslog calls.

What the daemon needs is a complete overhaul of the logging. (Actually,
what it really needs is a complete overhaul of everything.)

In the interim, about all you can do is hack the source so messages you
want sent someplace else (say, commands) use a different facility (say,
USER1 instead of DAEMON). Then you could tell your syslog daemon to stuff
them into a separate file. I've not tried this, or even looked at the
code it would take to do it, so it's probably a bit more complex than it
sounds.

Hello,

first of all thanks for the help with the variables. Now I have a problem
with message files. It seems the magic cookie %C could not be resolved
at all levels. At the cd command the ftp user gets:
Current directory: ftpd[29470]: syslog: fopen on /dev/null failed, errno 2
and the same message is logged in the system syslog file.

In ftpaccess I defined:
message .ftpint.msg cwd=* ftpint

The .ftpint.msg file is:
Current directory: %C
...

We have the following directory structure under ftp-home:
drwxr-sr-x 4 root sys 512 Jun 11 12:47 pub
pub:
total 32
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 199 Jun 17 10:18 .ftpext.msg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 194 Jun 17 10:19 .ftpint.msg
---------- 1 root sys 0 Jun 11 12:47 .notar
drwx-wsr-t 3 root ftpext 512 Jun 11 12:47 inbound
drwx-wsr-t 3 root ftpint 512 Jun 21 14:56 outbound
inbound and outbound are mounted filesystems.

cd pub works. %C is replaced by /pub
cd inbound and cd outbound gave error messages.

Any idea?

Two things I can think of. First, you probably should create /dev/null in
the ~ftp area. Second, did you start the daemon as root? It should have
permission to grab the cwd; since it does not my first guess is it wasn't
root.

I had a look at this, and the things suggested there DISABLE a number of
options added to wu-ftpd in order to stop abusing it. (The idea of fxp is
to allow third party transfers).

I did it. The message changes to:
ftp> cd outbound
250- Current directory: ftpd[31386]: CWD outbound

> Second, did you start the daemon as root? It should have

As far as I know, I do. The inetd.conf entry is:
wuftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/wu-ftp/LOCALbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd -Llioa
but the process is shown as:
ftp 31386 6450 0 17:22:46 - 0:00 ftpd: zam107. ...
If it should be root who switches the identity?
Perhaps should I mention my system is AIX 4.3.2.

This looks like a syslog message is apearing on your screen mixed in with
the ftp output. If this was from a client on a machine _other_ than the
FTP server, it may indicate there's a problem with the setup of the ~ftp
area. Run through the FAQ and any how-to docs for anonymous FTP for your
system (some systems include such with the OS).

OK. you're running as root.

AIX, eh?

ISTM AIX is one of those systems which has a broken runtime for the
getcwd() function, at least on some systems.

Try this:

in support/makefiles/Makefile.aix, change the lines reading
authuser.c
and
authuser.o
to read as
authuser.c getcwd.c
and
authuser.c getcwd.o
respectively. Do a `./build clean` then rebuild the daemon.

Another choice is to change src/config/config.aix from reading
#define HAVE_GETCWD
to reading
#undef HAVE_GETCWD
which will cause a compile-time error because the system is lame, so we
need to remove the error be deleting the line reading
#error wu-ftpd on this platform has security deficiencies!!!
from src/extensions.c. Clean up and rebuild the daemon.

Well, its about time that I got back into C. Will give this a spin

ok I have updated to wuftpd 2.5 I have checked the protections in the ftp
directory...all are world rx.

I have followed the directions on http://www.wildheart.org/wu-ftpd/#anonymous.

the only thing I did not do was create the files in the ./dev directory. I am
not familiar with the mknod command. I am not sure why there should be a
tcp,ucp,null,zero and ticotsord in ./dev

and if I can do what I need to with command line...why would they only
interfere with a gui? I tried with wsftp and I can see a log of exactly what
happens....it is the same as during a command line session.

I am still clueless? any more ideas?

the problem is an incomplete 'ls' command setup .. the instructions are in
the FAQ, with specific for Solaris

don't know who this is but I will say that the information on most web
sites other than the following is incomplete.

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

ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/

wu-ftpd Resource Center: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/
wu-ftpd FAQ: http://www.cetis.hvu.nl/~koos/wu-ftpd-faq.html
wu-ftpd list archive: http://www.landfield.com/wu-ftpd/mail-archive/

If these are required for your OS then the daemon won't work if they are
not there.

Because there are two ways directories are listed. Some command lines use
one, some the other. some GUI clients use one, some the other.

These issues are all covered in the FAQ.

OK, it's me again. I wrote a few weeks ago because my newly built
ftpd daemon (now 2.5.0) keeps failing when I try to login as a valid
user.

(quick refresh-- if I try to login as a disallowed person first, and
then try as an allowed user, it seems to work, but if the first attempt
is the allowed user, then it fails.)

I am seeing this only with wuftpd, but I'm not really convinced it's a
wuftp error. I'm writing to the list in hopes that someone here has
seen something like the gdb backtrace that follows:

It does appear to be something in libc, but they're exactly the same

Hi friends

My problem about display information of FTP was fixed only consulting the man of ftpd of solaris. the problem was to apply incorrectly command MKNOD .

Now i have another question.

If my user login is ( junior ) and my home /export/home/rtn/junior

What i have to do, when user (junior) access way FTP (wu-ftpd) but this user can't access to up directories /etc/ , /var/adm. etc... only access to own home ..

i remember that in file /etc/passwd had this:

junior:x:30:45:Junior Marin:/export/home/rtn/junior/ ./:/bin/csh

but it don�t work ...

something more to me needs ??

thanks

Read the Guest HOWTO referenced from the FAQ. Basically you need a group
in /etc/group with junior as a member, and you need to name that group in
the guestgroup clause in your ftpaccess file.

Try again. This time delete your ftpusers file. Then add ftpaccess
clauses to obtain the same effect. I'm on Linux here and all my normal
users are UID >= 100 and GID >= 100 so I use the following:

deny-uid %-99
deny-gid %-99
allow-uid ftp
allow-gid ftp

This does the same job as ftpusers; only faster, more accurately and with
less change of my forgetting someone.

Hi, I was wondering if there was a Ratio function in wu-ftpd to enable
Ratio upload/downloads on the FTP server.

E.g. Like Serv-u for Windows how it can run Ratio's so people must =
upload before they download.

Leigh Welton.

Hi all,

I have a problem as below:

Chroot directory
/chroot

User directory
/chroot/user

FTP directory (can not modify anything inside this directory)
/mnt/sco

Ftp directory
/chroot/user/ftp --> /mnt/sco

Since symbolic link doesn't work on guest account, is there any secure
way that I can setup to export /mnt/sco to user directly without making
any changes on /mnt/sco?

Thanks for any advises!
Benny

Hi Leigh,

wu-ftpd doesn�t support ratios, but BeroFTPD does. It�s based on
wu-ftpd.

I'm assuming /mnt/sco is a mounted filesystem. Just mount it read-only
into the guest user's area.

Ratios are dumb. All one need do is upload /dev/random for a few meg to
get the download quota desired. Works fine for the remote user and has
the added advantage of making life harder for the FTP admin. The FTP
admin doesn't even get the satisfaction of banning the abusive site since
it's probably a dialup port and changes every session. IMHO anyone
wanting to run with rations should forget the Internet and go back to
running a dialup BBS.
</rant>

BeroFTPD has some support for ratios. Never looked at the feature because
it's so lame.

Wu-FTPD 2.5.0 has transfer limits which place upper limits on uploads and
downloads per session without attempting to remember activity from
previous sessions.

It's a circular reference... Your installation of the library ld-linux.so.2
appears to be broken as the file may not exist.

Please do not send private email, but rather send it to the email list. I
do not have Linux installed and so cannot help with system specific details.

is there default end to that range, or should it really be:

deny-gid %-99 %99

Thanks for the suggestion, I like this method better than the misnamed (!?)
'ftpusers' file. It still fails, but with a different traceback:

[time passes for our luckless victim...]
Well, I think I've got some good news-- I'm an idiot. After looking at
these two tracebacks, I decided to see if just by chance there were any
patches available for x86 malloc. Bingo. I just installed 105211-18
and my problem seems to have disappeared. I'll let you know if I find
any more problems (AFTER I've checked for patches this time...).

Thanks again!

%-99 means "From lowest-possible value up to and including ID 99" so your
form gains nothing.

Always a good idea. From what I've seen, more so with Sun software.

Yes, that was it. The directories are mounted filesystems and I missed the
execute rights on the overlayed mountpoints. Sorry!

With AIX 4.3.2 this gives a compile error:

cc -O2 -D_NO_PROTO -c getcwd.c
"getcwd.c", line 139.20: 1506-068 (W) Operation between types "struct direct*"

make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Thanks for all help.

Jacques: This way your puppy. Wanna take a look at it and see if it's
not quite as portable as it should be? While it's probably not required
on AIX, it would probably be nice if it compiled in case it ever is
needed.

I presume you mean you have version 2.5.0

Your problem is a FAQ. It indicates an incomplete setup of the local 'ls'
command in the chroot'd (anonymous or guest) are.

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

Got 2.5.0. Building on HPUX 10.10.

Ran "./build CC=gcc hpx"

Got this result:
---
make args are :
make opts are : CC=gcc

Copying Makefiles.

Linking src/config.h

Making support library.
gcc -Ae -Dunix -O +Onolimit +DAportable -c authuser.c
gcc: +Onolimit: No such file or directory
gcc: +DAportable: No such file or directory
*Initialization*:1: missing token-sequence in `#assert'
*** Error exit code 1

Stop.
---

Obviously "gcc: +Onolimit: No such file or directory" is, at least,
the initial problem.

Any ideas how to fix this call? I find "+Onolimit" as the "CFLAGS"
in ./support/Makefile . I guess it's passed to the gcc, but then what?

Many thanks,

tjn

I'd suggest attempting to use the HP ANSI C compiler. gcc does not have
the option flags (+Onolimit +DAportable). If you want to use gcc you will
need to edit the files to remove those flags; there should be notes about
that somewhere (don't remember where though).

Hi all!

I'm using WU-FTP 2.4.2 on Linux Red Hat 5.2.

When any of my clients upload a file to the server, it appears with a
different hour compared with the one in the server. This difference can be
percieved only in the users ftp clients, I have the right hour in the files
uploaded in the system.

Where might be the problem?

Thanks for any help!

Mauricio

I try to use gcc because it seems like the HPC is brain dead... I
always get a lot of errors using it. And it holds true in this
instance... _many_ more errors using hpc (attached below).

Any idea what the "+Onolimit +DAportable" options are for? After
taking them out I get:
------------
Making support library.
gcc -Ae -Dunix -O -c authuser.c
*Initialization*:1: missing token-sequence in `#assert'

As you know, the default C compiler supplied with HP-UX is a cut-down version
suitable for building the kernel, but is non-ANSI compliant. If you want ANSI
compatibility you have to purchase a license from HP for the full version -
or use something like gcc. And the WU-FTPD source needs ANSI compatibility.

The options supplied in the makefile are for the full version of the compiler,
which is why it barfs when you only have the default compiler available.

DAportable tells the compiler to generate code which works on both PA-RISC 1.1
and PA-RISC 2.0 architectures. You can specify DA<model number> to target
the binary specifically for a certain system. This gives better performance
on that model, but of course at the expense of not being as portable.

Onolimit tells the compiler not to suppress optimisations which significantly
increase compile-time or memory usage.

I had thought these were still explained in the man page for cc even if the
compiler is not licensed, but perhaps I'm wrong.

I don't use gcc, but since the -Ae option tells the HP C compiler to use
extended ANSI mode, which includes defining names provided by HP-UX, I doubt
if it has quite the same effect under gcc... You'd have to check the man
page for GNU C to see if it is doing something useful or not.

I'm sure the question of compiling under gcc for HP-UX has come up before;
you may want to check the mailing list archives (available from the WU-FTPD
Resource Center and possibly elsewhere) to see if there are any useful tips
there. If/when you do find out what to do, it would also be a good idea to
ask Koos to add it to the FAQ (I assume you checked that before posting).

Timezone is wrong for the FTP server.

Check that the TZ environment variable is set properly before executing
the daemon. Depending on how you're set up, you make need to dupllicate
the /etc/localtime and /usr/lib/zoneinfo structures into your chroot'd
(anonymous and guestgroup) areas.

The number of times this has come up in the past few months, I'd say the
daemon should switch to using gcc by default on HP/UX with notes about how
to use the for-pay compiler placed in the Makefiles. either way we're
goning to have questions, but if we go toward gcc, I think we'll have a
few less.

For the past couple of months, HP/UX questions have come up a bit more
often than usual.

Last thing first: If you are really running 2.4 you have more severe
security problems than a few piddling virii could cause. The current
version of the daemon is 2.5.0. To determine which version you are
runnin, on most systems, simply conenct to the FTP server with a
text-based client; the version number appears in the greeting message.
More recent versions of the daemon allow you to change the verbosity of
the greeting; on those systems, you will need to issue a STAT (or QUOTE
STAT) command .. the version number will appear in the server status
output.

Now, to your main question. I guess I should say RTFM, but I'll explain:

(Short form answer for the impatient: "Duh! That's how FTP is supposed to
work.")

There are two sockets used in an FTP session: the Control socket and the
Data socket.

The Control socket is where the daemon (or inetd) listens for new
sessions. This is normally TCP port 21 but it can be changed using a
command-line option or by changing the 'ftp' entry in /etc/services.
Firewall rules for the Control connection should be:

Allow all incoming TCP from any IP address on non-privileged TCP ports
to the server's IP address(es) on Port 21.

Allow only connected outgoing TCP from the server's IP address(es) on
port 21 to any IP address on non-privileged TCP ports.

For example: On Linux, using ipfwadm, with a server on 10.0.0.1 and the
default rule to deny (drop) all packets:

ipfwadm -I -i accept -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -D 10.0.0.1 21
ipfwadm -O -i accept -k -P tcp -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -S 10.0.0.1 21

The Data socket operates in one of two modes: PORT or PASV. The mode is
determined by the client. In PORT mode, the daemon initiates the
connection and generally uses port 20 (but, again, this can be changed
with a command-line option or by changing 'ftp-data' in /etc/services).
PASV mode connections are initiated by the client to a port selected by
the daemon.

Firewall rules for a PORT mode connection should be:

Allow all outgoing TCP from the server's IP address(es) on port 20 to
any IP address on a non-privileged port.

Allow only connected incoming TCP to the server's IP address(es) port 20
from any IP address on a non-privileged port.

For example: On Linux, using ipfwadm, with a server on 10.0.0.1 and the
default rule to deny (drop) all packets:

ipfwadm -O -i accept -P tcp -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -S 10.0.0.1 20
ipfwadm -I -i accept -k -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -D 10.0.0.1 20

Firewall rules for a PASV mode connection should be:

Allow all incoming TCP from any IP address on any non-privileged port to
the server's IP address(es) on any non-privileged port.

Allow only outgoing TCP from the server's IP address(es) on any
non-privileged port to any IP address on any non-privileged port.

For example: On Linux, using ipfwadm, with a server on 10.0.0.1 and the
default rule to deny (drop) all packets:

ipfwadm -I -i accept -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -D 10.0.0.1 1024:65534
ipfwadm -O -i accept -k -P tcp -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -S 10.0.0.1 1024:65534

BIG WORD OF CAUTION HERE .. this last rule set should scare the hell out
of you. For instance, if you're firewalling and you want to allow
outgoing FTP clients from the same IP address(es) as you allow incoming
FTP, the rules for the two sets will merge to allow all traffic of any
kind on all non-privileged ports. Think carefully about the ways the
rules interact .. it is very easy to define rules which appear to work but
don't actually do a damned thing to secure the server.

So, what's the solution? With earlier versions of the daemon, there was
none. Period. You lived with this problem or you didn't offer FTP.

Version 2.5.0 has a ftpaccess configuration clause, however, which can
come to your rescue. It won't completely solve the problem, but it can
make it more manageable.

passive ports <cidr> <min> <max>

This allows you to determine the PASV-mode connection port range which the
daemon will choose from. And you can determine that range based upon the
IP address (using CIDR notation) which the Control connection arrived on.

For example, we could shoft the PASV ports from the non-privileged range
to a short segment of the privileged port range, say 512 through 1023.
This can avoid problems with rules merging together, but it could open
other problems if the serer needs to offer other services which use that
range (say, SSH) .. SO BE CAREFUL. The ftpaccess file, for this example,
would contain:

passive port 10.0.0.1/32 512 1023

And the Linux ipfwadm rules for this would become:

ipfwadm -I -i accept -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -D 10.0.0.1 512:1023
ipfwadm -O -i accept -k -P tcp -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65534 -S 10.0.0.1 512:1023

This may look like a good solution, and will work for most sites, but be
aware: if the remote network is firewalling FTP clients to restrict them
to the expected (non-privileged) range in an attempt to prevent network
abuse of servers by that network's users, the remote firewall's rules
could prevent their FTP clients from establishing PASV connections to your
FTP server.

Several things to be aware of with gcc.

1. GCC 2.8.1 has never been ported to HP-UX 11 properly. People that
I have corresponded with that use GCC on the HP seem to favour 2.7.2.
My problems with getting BeroFTPD built and operating under HP-UX 11
may have been related to the fact that I was using 2.8.1.

2. GCC has been turned over to the EGCS people for future development
and the two products (gcc and egcs) are being rolled together for the
next general release (gcc 2.95) due out RSN. In consequence there
have been no generally available changes or bug fixes to 2.8.1 since
March 1998 as far as I am aware.

3. HP-UX 11 is still not a supported platform for GCC 2.95 (as of
today, it might have changed since I started writing this).]

Jim

I am taking the sense of this to be that you don't only mean for HP/UX.
If so, I'd flag a few fine point details for the other OSs.

For example, on Solaris2.5.1 and 2.6 in the building of libraries from what
the configure figures out for a pgpk build works but breaks in key
generation on the HAVE64 check giving a Bus error.

and under the versions of IRIX,
2.7.2.2 is needed to support -o32 and will not do -n32.

contrariwise,
2.8.1 will only do -n32 (& 64) and should be fine on all the 6.2, 6.3, &
6.4 systems that have NOT either upgraded their compiler or patch (this a
very subtle way your working compiler suddenly breaks because you downloaded
the latest patch set and put them all in without carefully discriminating)
that affects front-end or back-end internal compiler [aka whirl] .so's
beyond the 7.11 (or possibly the earliest 7.2). After that the compiler is
not part of the IDO package.

However,gcc version 2.8 and upwards does support SGI's new ABIs (n32 and
64). The default compilation mode is n32 (-mabi=n32). To compile 64-bit use:
gcc -mabi=64 ...

....er, subject to all the below.

Here is the step-by-step to build gcc-2.8.1 from scratch:
http://reality.sgi.com/ariel/freeware/gcc-2.8.1.html

On 6.5.x, the default development base contains a different break-up of
the two because the compiler now requires a flexlm license. Even without
the for-pay compiler, it is necessary to install the assembler and linker
from the Development Foundation CDs to make things work.

The SGI back end (including an assembler and linker supporting the n32 and
64 ABIs) plus all the bits and pieces needed for gcc (headers, libraries,
runtime startup files, etc.) are included for free with any IRIX 6.5
distribution on the 2 CDs titled Development Foundation and Development
Libraries (in other words you don't need to have the SGI IDO in order to use
gcc.) In recent SGI compiler releases, the SGI assembler and linker are in
the subsystem: compiler_dev.sw.base.

And for the architectures (Origin 200,2000) that support it, these are the
known bugs:
Known Bugs

Unlike the SGI cc, gcc 2.8.1 does not support the o32 (old 32 bit)
ABI. Unlike the SGI cc, gcc 2.8.1 does not seem to support 128-bit
quantities like long double and long long on MIPS.

Gcc does not correctly pass/return structures which are smaller
than 16 bytes and which are not 8 bytes. The problem is very involved and
difficult to fix. It affects a number of other targets also, but irix6 is
affected the most, because it is a 64 bit target, and 4 byte structures are
common. The exact problem is that structures are being padded at the wrong
end, e.g. a 4 byte structure is loaded into the lower 4 bytes of the
register when it should be loaded into the upper 4 bytes of the register.

Gcc is consistent with itself, but not consistent with the SGI C
compiler [and the SGI supplied runtime libraries], so the only failures that
can happen are when there are library functions that take/return such
structures. There are very few such library functions. I can only recall
seeing a few of them: inet_ntoa, inet_aton, inet_lnaof, inet_netof, and semctl.

A possible workaround: if you have a program that calls inet_ntoa
and friends or semctl, and your kernel supports 64-bit binaries (i.e. uname
-a prints IRIX64 rather than just IRIX), then you may compile with gcc
-mabi=64 to workaround this problem.

DECunix/alpha also has certain 64-bit oddities that require adjustment.

NextStep3.3 on Intel and Openstep on Mach may not correctly interpret all
the macros under gcc-2.8.1.

That's all I can think of.
Hope that helps if you are planning an overhaul to standardize to gcc.
I didn't solve all these myself but I certainly have run into about 75% of
them because our developers keep picking 3rd-party or open source products
that don't take advantage of the qualities inherent in the native compilers
(for which we have licenses) and keep picking ones that require
gcc-dependence in some very bizarre ways.

Hello,

I am running a machine on my local network which acts as an FTP server
running v2.4.2-vr17 as the FTP daemon.

I have discovered a problem which appears to be related to the FTP
server...

On my FTP server, I have a collection of MP3 audio files which when
accessed using a URL like this:

ftp://pathname/filename.mp3

results in the downloaded file being passed to the *wrong* application. I
checked the logs for my WWW proxy server, and for every MP3 file I access
from my FTP server using a ftp:// style URL the mime type of 'audio/basic'
is shown! This is obviously not correct, and seems to explain why Netscape
is handing the files off to the wrong player application.

I have just installed Apache on the FTP machine and set up symlinks so I
can use a URL like this:

http://pathname/filename.mp3

and this works correctly, with the correct application being started once
an MP3 file is downloaded.

As far as Netscape is concerned, the only difference here is that the mime
type that's logged by my proxy server is different for each type of URL.

Is this a bug with ftpd? Or did I overlook something when I installed it?

I am yet to update to v2.5.0 of wu-ftpd, so perhaps there is a bug in the
vr versions which is fixed in 2.5.0?

Regards,

Craig.

This has nothing to do with the ftp server -- it doesn't serve up
documents the same way a web server does (ie. with MIME
headers, etc). It simply serves up raw files, with end-of-line
translation perhaps.
Since the file coming from the ftpd doesn't have a MIME type,
it's up to your web browser to figure it out. Configure the
browser correctly (probably based on mapping the file's
extension to a MIME type) and you'll solve your problem.

Proxy server is the magic word. In your setup the proxy server has to
generate the mime-type for the file transmitted since the proxy does the
translation ftp -> http. Ftp has no mime-types, http has, and Netscape
purely bases it's guess on the mime-type when one is available.

If you would test it with other ftp servers serving mp3's you would find
the same error consistantly.

Check the proxy server setup.

Yaaaaahhhhhooooooooo!!! Wuftp works on HP/UX. Special thanks to
everyone who helped (notes are below).

Building wuftpd version 2.5.0 on HP9000 running HP/UX 10.10 using
Gnu gcc compiler 2.7.2. Here's what I had to do:

Removed "+DAportable" (may not be optimized for my system but
I'll deal with that later) and "+Onolimit" from the makefiles
"src/makefiles/Makefile.hpx" and
"support/makefiles/Makefile.hpx"
(maybe some others)

Then changed anywhere there was a "CFLAGS = -Ae" to
"CFLAGS = -ansi". This was in
"support/makefiles/Makefile.hpx"
"support/Makefile"

Of course, edit "src/pathnames.h" to match my configuration.

Here is some background information.

* Special thanks to:
Gregory Lundberg <[email protected]> and Bob Luckin <[email protected]> for

DAportable tells the compiler to generate code which works on both
PA-RISC 1.1 and PA-RISC 2.0 architectures. You can specify DA<model
number> to target the binary specifically for a certain system. This
gives better performance on that model, but of course at the expense
of not being as portable.

Onolimit tells the compiler not to suppress optimisations which
significantly increase compile-time or memory usage.

* Special thanks to John McDermon <[email protected]> for

gcc -Ae -Dunix -D_HPUX_SOURCE -O -I.. -I../support -o ....

The -A option in gcc is an assertion which is looking for more
options, but in the HP-UX C compiler -Ae is the switch for ansi
source. It looks like the Makefile is "tuned" for the HP-UX
compilers.

Try replacing the -Ae in the Makefile with -ansi which is the ansi
switch to make gcc understand it.

* Honorable mention to Koos van den Hout <[email protected]>:
thanks for maintaining the FAQs and list archives.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Everyone!

Good day list readers -

I have been running wu-ftpd for sometime, but one thing i have never
figured out - even reading thru the FAQ and man pages.

I host several domains here on this RedHat 5.2 Linux 2.0.36 box. They
all have the same IP (i.e. they are virtual hosts). What i want to do is
to enable say virtualhost1.com to be able to use ftp.virtualhost1.com. I
have added the appropriate DNS information, and have looked into the
/etc/ftpaccess fixes. How can i allow users to ftp.virtualhost1.com to
go to a specific path? i thought something like the following in
ftpaccess would work:

# <chemistbench.com>
virtual 10.1.1.80 allow *
virtual 10.1.1.80 root /home/chemist/temp
# </chemistbench.com>

Where 10.1.1.80 is the internal IP for that vhost. But i ftp there and
still see the /home/ftp stuff.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

First off, FTP virtual hosts must EACH have a UNIQUE IP address (number).
DNS-based vhosts, like those available for web servers, are NOT POSSIBLE
with the current FTP specifications. Yes, a new specification is under
development which will allow them, but it will be some time until that
specification is deployed.

virtual 10.1.1.80 root /home/chemist/temp

This moves the chroot for *ANONYMOUS* users connecting to the FTP server
on IP address 10.1.1.80. On 2.5.0 (which is what you should be running),
it also prevents real and guest users from logging into the FTP server on
that IP address.

virtual 10.1.1.80 allow *

This allows real and guest users to log in on the FTP server on 10.1.1.80
it does not, however, cause them to be chroot'd to the ANONYMOUS root;
they still use the root given for their username/uid.

On my servers, all users are guests, chroot'd to the /home/users directory
then restricted to their personal home directory. If a user owns an FTP
site, that site is within their home so they can see their own FTP site. I
add a 'virtual allow' to allow them to log into their personal FTP server
(but they're a level up, in their home, rather than in their server's
anonymous area itself). ISTM there's an example of this in the example
layout at ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/examples/

I know of no IPv6 patches for WU-FTPD.

Basically, you'll be doing the changes yourself. Such work is not for the
faint of heart. I can assure you that such patches would be very
extensive. The code is serpentine, cryptic and virtually unsupportable.

No. It's not planned.

Sure, it would be nice, but who needs it? IPv6 is not very widely
deployed. That's not to say it shouldn't be done; but the work will
probably wait until we get arround to a complete rewrite of the daemon.

Does anyone have a doc a setting up wu-ftp, proFTP, berofFTP or
any other ftp server for that part with Solaris 7 to chroot w/o
the /etc/passwd hack or w/o the need for files copied into
each and every user's home directory?? Even hard links are a
pain. I wish there was a way I could specify who I did not want
to have chroot()'ed and everyone else would be confined in jail.

Thanks for any information/doc's/URL's.

Thanks again,

Ryan

Ryan,

I don't think that wu-ftpd will do all that at this point. It sounds
like a good set of wish list items though.

It sounds like you want the following: a config line that for each
virtual server where you could specify that a guest user's home
directory would be /samedir/username - thus no /etc/passwd hack. I
didn't see that in the TODO list of the 2.5.0 source.

It also sounds like you want a config line that would limit access to
only guest users - that is already available in ftpaccess, see the
"class" line in the ftpaccess file. I'm not sure how to do it for
virtual hosts though. To deny/allow certain users, look at the
"defaultserver" or "virtual" line in the ftpaccess file.

It also sounds like you want the LIST (ls -l/dir) command to use a
compiled-in ls version that reads the password file (and possibly only
stored a certain set of lines) before doing a chroot - eliminating the
need for /bin, /etc, /lib, and /dev (provided you aren't offering
gunzip/ untarring capability). I think that is part of the TODO list
provided in the source of 2.5.0.

How is your C?

that's because we take them off the TODO list when we put them in the
manpage.

also covered in the manpage

the need for a built-in ls command is greatly reduced by the current
features of the daemon.

the TODO item is to merge BeroFTPD's built-in ls command because users
tend to not RTFM and the ls command is a FAQ .. the other reason is the
future of FTP will do away with the text-mode ls output (leaving that up
to the client) so we might as well do a text-mode convertion of the MLST
output to support legacy clients (ie., all clients currently in use).

Who cares? All he needs is a compiler; he won't be doing any coding.

Hello All,

I am preparing to move our ftp function to another server and I am wondering
what the latest and greatest release of wu-ftpd is.I see from
http://hpux.cae.wisc.edu/hppd/hpux/Networking/FTP/wu_ftpd-2.4.2/ that this
was last updated in March. I also notice that it is titled 10.20. I will
be using an HP 11.0 system. Is there another location that I can find a
binary that will work with 11.0 if the 2.4.2 won't work?

Thanks

EST 1999) running on a host that hosts several virtual domains (ie just
one IP address).

I'd like to be able disable anonymous access for specific domains, but
not for others. Is this possible? If so, how? :o)

(I can upgrade to the latest version (2.50) if necessary, and probably
will anyway...)

Thanks,

R.

Was there a reason for this to be re-posted? Or is the wu-stl list server
going funky again?

If you insist on using 2.4.2 you will be doing a lot of things which are
already done for you in 2.5.0 just to get it to compile.

I have seen reports of people using 2.5.0 source on HP/UX 11 without
problem. I do not believe a 10.20 binary will work properly.

The latest version is 2.5.0 and is known to work on HP/UX 10.20; without
change if you have the for-pay ANSI C compiler from HP, with minor changes
if you need to use gcc.

2.4.2 is stable enough and reasonably secure. 2.5.0 includes a large
number of bugfixes (including a number of HP/UX-specific corrections), and
a few security changes.

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

Hello All, Completely new to internet ftp'ing. First posting so please
forgive any wrongs that I may commit . . . not intentional.

Would like to setup an AIX 4.3.2 ftp site. I've read through different
wu-ftp site(s) FAQ's etc. . . Is there any site that has the binary
compiled object and not just source - for downloading.

I'm running into compilation errors with gcc and thought I'd ask the
easy question first versus getting into debug and sending error msgs
across this list. Thanks for any and all information.

The version you are running is old and has sever security problems. You
should upgrade immediately to the current version (2.5.0).

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

Ignoring the fact anyone who wants it can gain root access on your server,
you need to upgrade to 2.5.0 to do what you want. After upgrading, read
the manpage 'virtual private' section.

Noone in the development group built an AIX binary for the current
version. If they had it would be in the FTP site and mirrors.

You should not be seeing any compile errors using the default (cc)
compiler. Switching to gcc shouldn't be too hard but you'll probably have
problems with compiler options and, maybe, headers. Try the default build
(using cc) and if that doesn't work, send of the gcc errors and I'll peer
at 'em.

Dunno what ftphosts has to do with it. Never bother with the file myself.
I don't care which host a user comes from just so the correct password is
given.

> virtual ftp.domain.com private

I like IP numbers instead, but yes .. that's what you want to add. Note
you can do the same thing to the default server ...

I'm assuming you have the vhost all set up and working and just want to
add this feature. Otherwise, you'd best start by reading the FAQ and
Kent's vhost document at the Resource Center.

OK.

Downloaded, and installed (well, actually, I've installed on a different
host already so I'm reading the man page on there!)

>From what I can see, I need to add each virtual domain to /etc/ftphosts
and then use entries in /etc/ftpaccess to control anonymous access, eg:

Am I on the right track?

I had wu-ftpd-2.4.2b15 running fine on my server.

I noticed that 2.5.x was released and went to upgrade.

Now I can't ftp as real users or anonymous.

As Real User I get:

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

As Anonymous I get:

530 Can't set guest privileges.
Login failed.

Please advise. I several customers getting very irritated, including one Boss.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Sounds like a bad built. Try

ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/binaries/intel/linux/wu-ftpd-2.5.0.linux.i386.tar.gz

I built it on RH 4.2 for a 2.0.3? kernel so it should work fine for you.

If the daemon refuses a login it will give the exact reason in the system
log. Signal 11 is bad (and I think that's what you're getting). Other
causes will probably be self-explanatory.

Thanks for the comeback

It was a bad build. I was trying to use the rpm for the upgrade.

I downloaded the tar.gz and all went well.

Appreciate the comeback!

Ok, I have my real users logging in now.

What do I need to change to allow anonymous users.
My ftpaccess file looks correct.
permissions are 600

Ok, I've got the ~ftp/etc/passwd & ~ftp/etc/group files setup but I still
get only the UID# and GID# in the ls lists when using a guest account.

Any help appreciated! :-)

Make sure the files are world-readable and the directories containing them
are world-executable. And double-check they're in the right place. An
example layout with proper (minimum) permissions is at
ftp://ftp.wu-ftpd.org/pub/wu-ftpd/examples/

They are, they are, and they are. Yep, I've already read the guide you
provided a link to and could not see any reason for it to not be working.

My guess would then be that the ls command isn't completely set up. I had
a similary problem years ago after upgrading to Redhat 4.2 from an old
Slackware CD (kernel 0.95 or so .. like I said, old) and the solution was
to rebuild the ls command in the FTP server areas (I use static binaries)

Use the chroot command to test is it's permissions or the program:

su
cd ~ftp
chroot ~ftp /bin/ls -alR

If it's a permissions problem root will see the proper usernames; if it's
the binary, you're either get some message, nothing at all, or the same
thing as you see via FTP.

Some systems cache the passwd file. If your's does, turn off caching; it
getsi nthe way of the daemon.

Michael,

find out the last time they were accessed (ls -lu) and verify that the ftp
daemon is trying to read them.
