 |
|
Is there any way to set max clients and max clients per ip for different accounts?
And is there a complete list over what options that can be configured for each user?

test to change the the setting in userbased configuration. I think it should work.
what you want to read is:
man vsftp.conf -> user_config_file how to change userbased setting.
Testing it will be faster then waiting for an answer 
Post youre experiance here. It would interest me! |

Right now I'm also trying to overcome this problem, but I'm also having problems. What I have done is the following:
Creating dir /etc/vsftpd_user_conf
Copying file /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf to /etc/vsftpd_user_conf
Adjusting /etc/vsftpd_user_conf/vsftpd.conf to user settings and renaming it to the username.
Adding the line: user_config_dir=/etc/vsftpd_user_conf to /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.
Restarting daemon using /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart.
And it still doesn't work. When I log in with the user I have changed the settings from he still uses the general settings in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?
Btw the version is 1.2.2. |

All right, i had this too. In my case vsftpd was not allowed to access the directory. Since Gentoo is quite hard set in security question I would try (for testing):
| Code: |
mkdir /vsftpd
cp /etc/vsftpd_user_conf/username /vsftpd
|
restart vsftpd
If it does not work set the userright to ftp (or wathever vsftpd runs as Default is nobody i think)
hope this works |

Ok, first of all I want to thank you for the answer because it worked perfectly for me.
But now I've got a new question. Why does this work? There is no difference in the file permissions in /etc/vsftpd_user_conf or /vsftpd. What am I missing? |

Sorry. I do not know. Maybe vsftpd is forbidden to access /etc?
I never looked at it. because I do my vsftpd configfiles all together in /vsftpd.
But I can look at it when iam back at work on wednesday. |

Please do. Because I find it quite irritating that I do not know why the solution works.
It just isn't logical. |
