 |
|
Ive been trying to get glftpd to work forever.... this is what ive done...
cat /etc/hosts.allow
cat /etc/xinetd.conf
| Code: |
defaults
{
instances = 60
log_type = SYSLOG authpriv info
log_on_success = HOST PID
log_on_failure = HOST
cps = 25 30
}
includedir /etc/xinetd.d
|
cat /etc/xinetd.d/glftpd
| Code: |
service glftpd
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE NAMEINARGS
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/tcpd
server_args = /opt/glftpd/bin/glftpd -l -i -z cert=/etc/glftpd-dsa.pem -o -r /opt/glftpd/glftpd.conf -s/opt/glftpd/bin/glstrings.bin
# only_from = 0.0.0.0
}
|
| Code: |
# Custom
ifip 127.0.0.1 192.168.*.*
elseip
pasv_addr cptmorgan.homelinux.net 1
pasv_ports 27900-28000
endifip
allow_fxp yes
|
Also Ive forwared all the correct ports on my router (passive ports and connection port). Still no one can connect from outside my router and niether can I throught ncftp cptmorgan.homelinux.net 5446 but i can with ftp cptmorgan.homelinux.net 5446 and localhost ??
ive noticed this message in /var/log/messages
| Code: |
Sep 14 00:21:38 mybox glftpd:81.216.10.61: connected: Couldn't canonicalize local hostname (3)
|
netstat -nap | grep 5446
| Code: |
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5446 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 18438/xinetd
|
listening on 0.0.0.0 ?? im so lost... errrrr |

@ cptmorgan:
Have you added your port(s) to /etc/services
| Code: | mv@tbird133 mv $ less /etc/services | grep glftpd
glftpd 2121/tcp
glftpd 2121/udp
|
I dont think gl will run without them

| Only the tcp line is needed in /etc/services. Glftpd is not using udp. |

ok, figured it out.
in glftpd.conf
pasv_addr has something to do with that, either set it to your ip number or comment it out.
at least that worked for me |

pasv_addr <ip> [1]
Determines what IP/Host is used for passive mode.
If you want glftpd to bind to this interface (for example, if you use
more than one NIC in the same box and you want passive connections to
not use the default one), just do "pasv_addr x.x.x.x". If you want
glftpd to only report this IP to the client but to bind to the default
interface (as in when your box only has an internal IP and you're using
NAT), do "pasv_addr x.x.x.x 1".
If you have multiple pasv_addr lines, glftpd will cycle through them in
a round-robin style each time a file is transferred using passive mode.
