[SOLVED] Proftpd won't allow users to gain access to anonymous FTP

j.smith1981 · 11-09-2012, 01:03 PM

Hi there I have a big problem, I want to allow users to gain access without logging into my ftp service running proftpd.

The configs are as follows:

Quote:

# This is the ProFTPD configuration file
#
# See: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directiv...d/by-name.html

# Server Config - config used for anything outside a <VirtualHost> or <Global> context
# See: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/Vhost.html

ServerName "FTP server"
ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."
ServerAdmin root@localhost
DefaultServer on

# Cause every FTP user except adm to be chrooted into their home directory
# Aliasing /etc/security/pam_env.conf into the chroot allows pam_env to
# work at session-end time (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/477120)
VRootEngine on
DefaultRoot ~ !adm
VRootAlias /etc/security/pam_env.conf etc/security/pam_env.conf

# Use pam to authenticate (default) and be authoritative
AuthPAMConfig proftpd
AuthOrder mod_auth_pam.c* mod_auth_unix.c
# If you use NIS/YP/LDAP you may need to disable PersistentPasswd
#PersistentPasswd off

# Don't do reverse DNS lookups (hangs on DNS problems)
UseReverseDNS off

# Set the user and group that the server runs as
User nobody
Group nobody

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 20. If you need to allow more than 20 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode; in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances 20

# Disable sendfile by default since it breaks displaying the download speeds in
# ftptop and ftpwho
UseSendfile off

# Define the log formats
LogFormat default "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b"
LogFormat auth "%v [%P] %h %t \"%r\" %s"

I even went as far as looking at my new node running the same OS and version in GUI mode, that runs fine but just can't seem to get this to work, does anyone know what else I need to check to make sure this works?

Thank you and I look forward to any replies,
Jeremy

Hi,

You didn't say what your exact problem is, but you can remove or comment the "<IfDefine ANONYMOUS_FTP>" and the closing "</IfDefine>" lines and see if it works

Cheers

I hashed out the if parts and it works now thanks so much.
