Problems with vsftpd
I am running RHEL 4 2.6.9-67
when I execute th command "ftp localhost" I get the error "500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv4 socket. In the file vsftpd.conf I have "listen-NO" The file /etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd is as " service ftp { disable = no socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/vsftpd nice = 10 } I have restarted the xinetd with the command "/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd" restart after edits to the vsftpd.config. I'm struggling with this is there any dicent doc I have searched extensivly on google. Thanks |
Are there any error messages in your log files?
Let us know Forrest |
I have looked at the /var/log/messages and was able to resolve an issue
with the file /etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd. Line should have been "disable = no" vs "disable=no".Fixed on both workstations. Now when I try to ftp from 131.32.98.19 to 131.98.32.18 I get the error "500 OOPS: cannot locate user specified in 'ftp_username' :ftp" I can successfully ftp from 131.98.32.18 to 131.98.32.19. The file /etc/hosts.allow has the text "vsftpd:All" on 131.98.32.18 |
