vsftpd not starting
I've followed heaps of tutorials now and I still cannot get vsftpd to start.
Here is what I've done so far: Install vsftp # cd /usr/ports/*/vsftpd # make install (select rc-ng script) Configure # cd /usr/local/etc # vi vsftpd.conf Here is my vsftpd.conf file: Code:
# Example config file /usr/local/etc/vsftpd.conf # # The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file # loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable. # Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults. # # READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive list of vsftpd options. # Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a full idea of vsftpd's # capabilities. # # Allow anonymous FTP? (Beware - allowed by default if you comment this out). 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=002 # # 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=NO # # Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create # new directories. anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO anon_other_write_enable=NO anon_world_readable_only=NO max_clients=100 max_per_ip=5 pam_service_name=vsftpd # # Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they # go into a certain directory. dirmessage_enable=YES # # Activate logging of uploads/downloads. xferlog_enable=YES log_ftp_protocol=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 25,1 Top # 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 # # You may override where the log file goes if you like. The default is shown # below. xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log # # If you want, you can have your log file in standard ftpd xferlog format. # Note that the default log file location is /var/log/xferlog in this case. #xferlog_std_format=YES # # 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=ftpsecure # # 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 on some FTP servers, ASCII support allows a denial of service # attack (DoS) via the command "SIZE /big/file" in ASCII mode. vsftpd # predicted this attack and has always been safe, reporting the size of the # raw file. # ASCII mangling is a horrible feature of the protocol. #ascii_upload_enable=YES #ascii_download_enable=YES # # You may fully customise the login banner string: #ftpd_banner=Welcome to blah FTP service. # # 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.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_local_user=YES #chroot_list_enable=YES 53,1 69% #chroot_local_user=YES #chroot_list_enable=YES # (default follows) #chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list # # 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 # # When "listen" directive is enabled, vsftpd runs in standalone mode and # listens on IPv4 sockets. This directive cannot be used in conjunction # with the listen_ipv6 directive. # # This directive enables listening on IPv6 sockets. To listen on IPv4 and IPv6 # sockets, you must run two copies of vsftpd with two configuration files. # Make sure, that one of the listen options is commented !! #listen_ipv6=YES secure_chroot_dir=/usr/local/share/vsftpd/empty # If using vsftpd in standalone mode, uncomment the next two lines: listen=YES listen_port=21 background=YES Add the following to /etc/rc.conf vsftpd_enable=YES Create the /etc/pam.d/vsftpd auth required /usr/local/lib/pam_pwdfile.so pwdfile /etc/vsftpd_login.db account required /usr/lib/pam_permit.so Add login names: htpasswd -c -b /etc/vsftpd_login.db USERNAME PASSWORD Try starting it using the rc.d script /usr/local/etc/rc.d/vsftpd start /usr/local/etc/rc.d/vsftpd status vsftpd is not running Even though I have logging on it doesn't create a log file named /var/log/vsftpd.log I have noticed that I can connect to the sftp, but this is using the sshd. Do I have to disable sftp to get vsftpd working? I don't really need it to run stand alone is it easier to start it within inetd? If so what line do I enter into the inetd.conf file? As I've tried this: ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/vsftpd vsftpd and that didn't work. I've tried starting it manually: # /usr/local/libexec/vsftpd /usr/local/etc/vsftpd.conf that doesn't work and there is no output on the screen to tell me what went wrong. Can anyone help. I'm sure I'm just missing something small. |
