Anonymous ftp configuration

Hi,
I'm trying to set up an anonymous ftp server on an Ultra 10 running solaris 8 and am having massive amounts of problems. I did download wu-ftp found on http://www.sunfreeware.com and I installed it but now cannot find the binary executables. I followed the man pages for ftpd and encoutered that it said that even though anonymous worked and had a home directory of / but couldn't see any files or cd into any sub directory.
Any help would be very helpfull!
Thank you,

Create the user in NetInfo Manager. Create the directories and assign permissions in Terminal.

Disabling anonymous ftp access

We have just completed a 9iFS install. The previous version of iFS was 1.1.6. We were having problems with anonymous logins (people were dumping garbage in our public folder) and we disabled anonymous FTP by changing the guest password (we also changed it in the IFSDavServletParameters.properties file and modified the ftpserver.def file by setting AnonymousPoolSize = 0 and AllowAnonymousConnections = false. We would like to do the same with 9iFS but these files no longer exist or have been renamed. What are the equivalent files in 9iFS or how else can we go about disabling anonymous logins?

Anonymous FTP, How Secure?

All,
I am sending file to Anonymous FTP server from SAP. I like to know how secure Anonymous FTP regarding files.
By using Anonymous FTP, i think we don't need any password.
In this case, anybody in the network can access the file.
Please give your inputs.
a®

U can configure the FTP to ask for login and password while accessing it. If it do not ask any uname/password, then it is called anonymous login. If FTP is configured for prompting username and password, then "Anonymous Login" checkbox is unchecked
Or
this is a guet User ID
the anonymous login will use to have User ID as "anonymous" and enter the password as anything (any password will work).
this will always have guest permissions and will not be able to temper any of the data without permission.
the administrator can assign the required permissions and roles to this user ID.
Reward points..

Can't get Anonymous FTP folder to work

According to this Apple doc you can set up a folder for anonymous FTP users. But when I add the "uploads" folder to my ftp root directory, which was relocatd as mentioned bellow. It doesn't seem to work. Anonymous users are sent directly to the ftp root folder rather then the uploads folder. So they can see all my files. I want Anonymous users to only be able to see anonymous user files, not all the ftp files.
Any thoughts?

Server Admin 10.4 Help
Creating an FTP Uploads Folder for Anonymous Users
The uploads folder provides a place for anonymous users to upload files to the FTP server. It must exist at the top level of the FTP root directory and be named "uploads." (If you have changed the FTP root directory, then the uploads folder must be at the root of that directory.)
Use the Finder to create a folder named "uploads" at the top level of your server's FTP root directory.
Set privileges for the folder to allow guest users to write to it.
You can set up an FTP upload directory using the mkdir and chmod commands in Terminal. For more information, see the file services chapter of the command-line administration guide.

Greg,
can you show us the "upload" directory permissions?
Also, have you restarted your ftp server?

Anonymous FTP User created by the system lacks the user name

I'm experiencing some problems and inconsistencies in the Mac OS X Server 10.4.7 FTP service.
First I'll report this behaviour to evaluate if it's worth a bug report.
I read in the that the user with user name 'Anonymous FTP User" and short name 'ftp' is created by the system the first time the FTP server is accessed using an anonymous user.
I noticed that the user is indeed created but its user name field is empty. It doesn't have the associated LDAP record, too.
If I try to manually create a user with an empty user name field WGM errors, so could this be considered a bug?

Disable anonymous ftp in Solaris 10

Hello,
I am trying to disable anonymous ftp on a solaris 10 server, but am having great difficulty.
I have tried adding the line 'guestserver' to /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess - this did not work.
There is no ftp account present in /etc/passwd
The inetd.conf entry for ftp is 'ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd'
I have even tried adding 'anonymous' to the /etc/ftpd/ftpusers file
Anyone know how to shut anonymous ftp off, in a clean manner?

The former. (the last field corresponds to argv[0], argv[1]...)
Though I find it odd that if you don't have an anonymous account, you think that anonymous ftp is active. If you ftp the host, and use anonymous and a password, it lets you in? It seems that the normal behavior is that is says
331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.
REGARDLESS of whether anonymous ftp is active or not (it's just that you can't log in without an allowed password). One can argue whether or not this is a desired behavior....

Setting Up Anonymous FTP

I'm filling in for a sick colleague, so some things are already set and shouldn't be changed.
FTP is already set for Home Directory Only. I need to add an ftp download point for anonymous users. For instance in ServerHD:WebSites:SiteA:Files, I want to provide guest access to the Files folder. The ftp root folder is inside the WebSites folder.
When I Enable Anonymous Access, all other ftp sites are visible via ftp clients. Is this unavoidable?
Secondly, how do I determine the ftp address of a file such as ServerHD:WebSites:SiteA:Files?
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

When I Enable Anonymous Access, all other ftp sites
are visible via ftp clients. Is this unavoidable?
Anonymous ftp appears to be a disappointing shortcoming of OS X Server.
I resolved the issue by going to http downloads in this scenario.

E4200 - Anonymous ftp server read and write

Hello,
Is there any possibility to set linksys E4200 for support anonymous acces to ftp server in read and write mode ?
Thanks,

Nope, just anonymous read access only, according to the options they give you. 192.168.1.1--->storage--->administration----> anonymous FTP access (enabled)

Anonymous ftp does not list directory - Solaris 9

I've got 2 Solaris 9 systems set up for anonymous ftp access. One will show a directory listing, the other won't. AFAIK, I set them up the same, and the ftpd binaries have the same checksum. Anyone know how to permit the directory listing?
By directory listing, I mean either the '"dir" command in a command-line session or via a browser (e.g., ftp://ftpserver.whatever.domain)
Baffling behavior, and I can't find anything in Sun's docs to explain.
Thanks.

This is exactly the same question which you posted in this thread:
ldd on my library (sample.so) fails to resolve SUNW_1.9.1 version of libnsl

Anonymous ftp returns message "unretrievable"

When someone uses Anonymous FTP to download publically available files, they get an "unretrievable" error message. I can't find any problems with permissions, and a named user can download files. This worked well before the update from 9. Any suggestions??
THANKS!!
I forgot to mention that there are no errors in the logs.

I understand what you're specifically asking for, but could you provide some background on what specific requirement(s) you are seeking to resolve -- the requirement(s) here, and not the proposed solution here using ftp.
Are you are familiar with ftp attacks, if this is an open Internet site? Open ftp servers are malware magnets.
If you're trying to avoid having specific (known) users specify authentication, then there are ways to do that. Not the least of which is sftp with the public keys shared. There are other approaches, such as uploads via http-based sites.

Questions for anonymous ftp

I installed Solaris 9 on Sun blade 100 and I can use ftp by entering my login account and password set up on this machine. But I can't use anonymous ftp by using "anonymous" and my email address as password. The system reports ftp login failed.
Today I setup the anonymous ftp by running the command:
/usr/sbin/ftpconfig /var/tmp where ftpconfig is a shell script for setting up anonymous ftp. ( see more details with "man ftpconfig").
Now I can anonymous login and I can see the files under /var/tmp (now is the / for anomymous ftp). However , when I want to get the file by "get file1", it gave me the error "/file1 is marked unretrievable"; when I issue "put file2", I got the error "file2: Permission denied on server. (Upload)".
We are using NIS+ and any hint?
THX!

Take a look at your /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file. Particularly these lines:
noretrieve relative class=anonusers /
allow-retrieve relative class=anonusers /pub
upload class=anonusers * * no nodirs
# upload class=anonusers * /incoming yes ftpadm ftpadm 0440 nodirs
The first pair is your "file1 is marked unretrievable" error. The second two relate to your inability to write files.

Having issues with Simple FTP configuration

I am attempting to set up FTP behind this new CISCO ASA 5510 we just bought. I haven't configured a cisco device in 5 years, so I am having issues., i think i am close, but need a little help to get me over the hump. If I FTP from outside (fixed) IP it connects and takes the password but hangs on PASV and gives no data connection below is my configuration. Can anyone help? I am hoping it is simple since I seem to have the connection inside correct. and yes you can connect to the FTP server from inside without issue.

First of all Thanks! So I pulled those commands off.
I am hitting the FTP server behind the firewall as you can see from my first log... It dies on PASV which is why I thought I needed that FTP-Data.
