Title: vsftpd-2.0.7.tce Description: FTP Server Version: 2.0.7 Author: Chris Evans Original-site: http://vsftpd.beasts.org/ Copying-policy: GPL Size: 43k Extension_by: robc Comments: From the INSTALL file: For anonymous FTP, you will need the user "ftp" to exist, and have a valid home directory (which is NOT owned or writable by the user "ftp"). The following commands could be used to set up the user "ftp" if you do not have one: root# mkdir /var/ftp/ root# useradd -d /var/ftp ftp (the next two are useful to run even if the user "ftp" already exists). root# chown root.root /var/ftp root# chmod og-w /var/ftp --------------------------------------- If using standard "inetd", you will need to edit /etc/inetd.conf, and add a line such as: ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/sbin/vsftpd (Make sure to remove or comment out any existing ftp service lines. If you don't have tcp_wrappers installed, or don't want to use them, take out the /usr/sbin/tcpd part). inetd will need to be told to reload its config file: kill -SIGHUP `pidof inetd` Please visit http://vsftpd.beasts.org/ for more information on setting up vsftpd. --------------------------------------- Please see the man page for additional information.
