 Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2005 4:57 pm Post subject: vsftpd asks for anon password [Solved] |
 |
|
I'd like to serve some pictures via ftp for some other site hosted somewhere else.
I set:
| Code: |
anonymous_enable=YES
no_anon_password=YES
|
But vsftpd still asks for a password. Any idea how to set up vsftpd so it doesn't ask for a password for anonymous users.
It works with default proftpd configiration. But i want to use vsftpd if possible.

to prevent typos, try logging in as "ftp". this is the default anon user. For me, it works just fine.
did you do a passwd ftp ?

I didn't set ftp password. Also I can't tell the visitors adjust their browser to use ftp as anon user.
Those images are embedded into web pages which i don't have much control of. It just have to work when somebody points any browser to those images.
I am using proftpd for now until i have a solution. |

| Quote: |
500 OOPS: vstpd: refusing to run with writable anonymous root
|
vstpd USE flags are
| Quote: |
net-ftp/vsftpd-2.0.3-r1 +pam +ssl +tcpd -xinetd
|
And my vstpd configration is
| Code: |
background=YES
listen=YES
anonymous_enable=YES
no_anon_password=YES
dirmessage_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log
nopriv_user=nobody
|

yes, it works that way. Thank you.
my intention changing the permission was to allow local users in ftp group easily update the ftp contents. |
