http://askubuntu.com – I am trying to make a new VSFTPD user but there apears to be a lack of documentation explaing how to make a new user + pass and assign them to a specific directory. Does anyone perhaps know a simple way to doing this? At the moment I just created a new user and this is my vsftpd.conf file but I get 530 login authenication error listen=YES anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES virtual_use_local_privs=YES write_enable=YES connect_from_port_20=YES secure_chroot_dir=/var/run/vsftpd pam_service_name=vsftpd guest_enable=YES user_sub_token=$USER local_root=/var/lib/ chroot_local_user=YES hide_ids=Y (HowTos)

I've read this tutorial: http://howto.gumph.org/content/setup-virtual-users-and-directories-in-vs... My configuration is as follow:

---vsftpd.conf--- listen=YES anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES virtual_use_local_privs=YES write_enable=YES connect_from_port_20=YES pam_service_name=vsftpd guest_enable=YES user_sub_token=$USER local_root=/var/www/s

Dear all, I have installed RHE 5, when I try to login as ftp, the follow statement appear: [root@nsn-server vsftpd]# ftp localhost Connected to nsn-server. 220 (vsFTPd 2.0.5) 530 Please login with USER and PASS. 530 Please login with USER and PASS. KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type Name (localhost:nsn): nsn

I setting my ftp server with vsftpd and it not working. And it still how all folder when i login with user ftp. I only want user only see his home directory.

This is my file vsftpd.conf

Quote:

userlist_enable=YES write_enable=YES session_support=YES anon_world_readable_only=NO no_anon_password=YES chmod_enable=YES background=YES chroot_local_user=NO guest_enable=NO loc

Distro: Ubuntu 12.04.2 Server 32-bit Server client: vsftpd 2.3.5 (from default "main" repository)

Problem: Since upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04 to Ubuntu 12.04 (nothing changed on client-side), vsftp has refused to make chroot-jails with the "chroot_local_user" directive on FTP(e/i)S-connections.

Here's my vsftpd.conf:

anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES write_enable=YES local_umask=022 dirmessa

I setup VSFTPD on my Ubuntu server 12.04, it worked very good. Until I tried to change the permissions of the user so the user couldn't go in the / directory and only in the directories inside /home/user/public_html.

It could have to do something with the fact that I did this:

sudo chmod 700 -R /

I have a user, ftpUser and he is inside a group, ftpUsers.

I am dealing with an issue I am unclear on how to resolve and have been pulling my hair out for some time.

Hi guys

I tried to install vsftpd which worked fine. I configures the vsftpd.conf with the following:

anonymous_enable=NO local_enable=YES chroot_local_user=YES

I tried to login to my ftp but i can't get access. I'm not even sure i'm using the right login?
