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.

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

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?

Grant read permission on List for Anonymous user for public facing site in Sharepoint 2013 Online

I have a public facing SP site ( SP online 2013 with Office 365 ). There are certain app parts added to it which read data from a
custom list created on that site. By default anonymous users do not have read permissions list. I want users to see the list data without login in . I tried modifying the settings for anonymous users , however I am unable to do it as the "anonymous user"
permissions cannot be checked by me.
How do I provide read permissions to anonymous users?
Thanks in advance

once you make the web site online anonymous users get the read access to list.
You can add the list view webpart and show the details to anonymous users. In the below link i have added the announcement list view webpart to a page.

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....

How to trace policy for native FTP

Hi guys,
I am trying to troubleshoot policy for native FTP (proxy port 8021 where FTP proxy is listening). The main reasons are wrong probably policy: we have usersA that are able to log into ftp via FTP proxy, but another usersB (another subnet) are not able to do the same (receiving "530 Login denied").
Questions:
- is there any way how can I troubleshoot/trace policy for native FTP?
- where/what access rules are applied to request placed to FTP proxy from users? I can see that there is option to disable "Native FTP" within access policies ("Protocols and User Agents" column) but all those checkboxes within all access policies rules are unchecked.
thanks for any help

Hi Michal,
Yes you can trouble shoot the FTP connection issues that you are having. Follow these steps below:
To grep the access logs for an entry, SSH into the WSA and run the following command from the CLI:
1. Grep
2. Enter the number of the log you wish to grep.
[]> 1
3. Enter the regular expression to grep.
[]> IP of the PC that the issue is being re produced on.
4. Do you want this search to be case insensitive? [Y]>
5. Do you want to search for non-matching lines? [N]>
6. Do you want to tail the logs? [N]> Yes
7. Do you want to paginate the output? [N]>
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email or call me.
Sincerely,

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,
BR, Mariusz.

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, 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..

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.

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?

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 Opinions and Ideas.

Hi,
I have a couple of questions for a few of you to respond.
1) What is the best site for keeping up to date on Java?
2) What is the best site for keeping up to date on technology?
3) What is the best site for news and events in general?
Search questions
1) I have been noticing that when I search on google I seem to get hits that are 3 or more years old? Has the internet become lack luster?
2) Is open source just another way for corporate to give away technology to another country and then outsource to them on pretense that they cannot find anything in the US?
3) Should all open source licenses be for American companies only?
Your answers and comment would be welcomed.

Rooting for them? I guess you didn't have stock in
enron or mci or delphi or maybe the 100's of other
companies that were backdating options or reporting
wrong results. You must also be one who is for
illegal immigrants? I can get more benefits being an
illegal immigrant than I can being an unemployed
white male (never been unemployed until now). I was
one of 3000 that got laid off due to outsourcing.
(company will remain anonymous) Their explanation
was, "They could not get enough technical resources
here in the US, so they were contracting to an
outsourcing company for the services". And so they likely lied. The predominate reason for outsourcing is that the company thinks that they can save money.
Very large companies often can "save" money because...
1. They have absolutely no process control and fail to deliver anything useful with the existing staff anyways. So they save money because it costs less to deliver nothing. (One large company I was aware of one time had a software development department which hadn't delivered anything in 18 months.)
2. They do have stringent process control and thus can deliver actual requirements that means something to the outsourced firm. Given their careful process control they are likely to have found an outsource company that can actually deliver what they promised. This sort of company is very rare.
Smaller companies will never succeed at this unless they have stringent process control as well. And failure here means that the company will be unlikely to survive.
Most companies that think they have process control do not in fact have it. Even with written requirements and written designs the actual product is often built via word of mouth requirements and products don't resemble the designs at all.
Presumably you can judge where your company fits into the above.
Before you
dismiss someone else make sure you think about the
question and why someone would ask. I wish I could
laugh with you.I worked at a company where they laid off 5% of the work force a week before they announced record profits. It had nothing to do with outsourcing.
I have been laid off from several places simply because they weren't making money. In several cases they never made any money. Nothing to do with outsourcing.
One company even had one of those money making ventures in place that involved phony offshore corporations doing phony sales. One of the owners of the company set that up. That had nothing to do with outsourcing either.
In all cases being a competent professional it took me very little time to find another job.

Proxy settings for dynamic ftp send port

Does anyone have an idea how to configure the proxy settings when using a dynamic send port to connect to an ftp server?
When using the FTP send port there is the property 'Server' to specify the proxy settings, but how would this be done with a dynamic send port?
I can't find anything about this. And there doesn't seem to be a property
FTP.Server according to intellisence in my orchestration.
Kind regards,
Mitch Vanhelden
Blog: http://mitchvanhelden.blogspot.com

It seems like most or all of the FTP properties are exposed in the Global Property Schemas assembly. The FTP properties are under the "FTP" namespace (see FTP property schema below).
One thing you might try is to get it working (simple messaging) using a static FTP send port. Once it is working, turn on send port tracking of message properties (before and after port processing). Inspect the tracked message for the FTP
related properties set during static transmission and try setting these within your orchestration.
