I have vsftpd setup and running with Suse 10. I am trying to configure a simple FTP setup that allows annonymous login with full write access to my ftp directory.

I have no problem connecting and logging in anonymously to view the files in my FTP directory, but when I try to write to the ftp directory it still will not let me.

Here is what is in my vsftpd.conf file:

anonymous_enable=YES
ftp_username=ftp
anon_root=/srv/patdaq
write_enable=YES
anon_upload_enable=YES
anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
anon_other_write_enable=YES
anon_world_readable_only=YES
anon_max_rate=0
local_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
port_enable=YES
syslog_enable=YES
log_ftp_protocol=NO

I start ftp by typing on the console:
chkconfig vsftpd on
/etc/init.d/xinetd start

Any help at all would be much appreciated

Maybe if you changed that line to NO, it would work.

You could also try changing the directory permissions to 777. Hope you know what you're doing, that sure looks like a loose server.
