 |
|
Hi all,
This is probably a very silly problem.. but, after installing vsftpd and letting it startup ok at boot, how do I connect to it? I mean, if I use ftp:// and then my Internet IP
address, firefox is simply set to the busy loading status, without anything happening.
Here's my config:
| Code: |
listen=YES
background=YES
# Allow anonymous FTP?
anonymous_enable=NO
# Uncomment this to allow local users to log in.
local_enable=YES
# Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command.
write_enable=YES
# Default umask for local users is 077. You may wish to change this to 022,
# if your users expect that (022 is used by most other ftpd's)
#local_umask=022
# Uncomment this to allow the anonymous FTP user to upload files. This only
# has an effect if the above global write enable is activated. Also, you will
# obviously need to create a directory writable by the FTP user.
#anon_upload_enable=YES
# Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create
# new directories.
#anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
# Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they
# go into a certain directory.
dirmessage_enable=YES
# Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from port 20 (ftp-data).
connect_from_port_20=YES
# If you want, you can arrange for uploaded anonymous files to be owned by
# a different user. Note! Using "root" for uploaded files is not
# recommended!
#chown_uploads=YES
#chown_username=whoever
# Activate logging of uploads/downloads.
xferlog_enable=YES
# If you want, you can have your log file in standard ftpd xferlog format
xferlog_std_format=YES
log_ftp_protocol=YES
# You may override where the log file goes if you like. The default is shown
# below.
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd/vsftpd.log
# You may change the default value for timing out an idle session.
idle_session_timeout=600
# You may change the default value for timing out a data connection.
#data_connection_timeout=120
# It is recommended that you define on your system a unique user which the
# ftp server can use as a totally isolated and unprivileged user.
nopriv_user=ftp
# Enable this and the server will recognise asynchronous ABOR requests. Not
# recommended for security (the code is non-trivial). Not enabling it,
# however, may confuse older FTP clients.
#async_abor_enable=YES
# By default the server will pretend to allow ASCII mode but in fact ignore
# the request. Turn on the below options to have the server actually do ASCII
# mangling on files when in ASCII mode.
# Beware that turning on ascii_download_enable enables malicious remote parties
# to consume your I/O resources, by issuing the command "SIZE /big/file" in
# ASCII mode.
# These ASCII options are split into upload and download because you may wish
# to enable ASCII uploads (to prevent uploaded scripts etc. from breaking),
# without the DoS risk of SIZE and ASCII downloads. ASCII mangling should be
# on the client anyway..
#ascii_upload_enable=YES
#ascii_download_enable=YES
# You may fully customise the login banner string:
ftpd_banner="Welcome to Vissies FTP"
# You may specify a file of disallowed anonymous e-mail addresses. Apparently
# useful for combatting certain DoS attacks.
#deny_email_enable=YES
# (default follows)
#banned_email_file=/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.banned_emails
# You may specify an explicit list of local users to chroot() to their home
# directory. If chroot_local_user is YES, then this list becomes a list of
# users to NOT chroot().
chroot_list_enable=YES
# (default follows)
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.chroot_list
chroot_local_user=YES
# You may activate the "-R" option to the builtin ls. This is disabled by
# default to avoid remote users being able to cause excessive I/O on large
# sites. However, some broken FTP clients such as "ncftp" and "mirror" assume
# the presence of the "-R" option, so there is a strong case for enabling it.
#ls_recurse_enable=YES
max_per_ip=2
|
And the net-status:
| Code: |
localhost ~ # netstat -pan | grep :21;
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 10193/vsftpd
|
Thanks!

| Mmm, that wasn't really it. I had some problems with the suggested pref-files from the WIKI as well...saying I can't have both background=yes and something other=yes, which it wasn't. Anyway, got it working now by again another pref-file, very basic one with SSL-negotiating. So, solved that, sometimes I think vsftpd isn't very logical in setting things up. |
