pure ftpd : how to set owner on files uploaded

view story
linux-howto

http://unix.stackexchange.com – I have a debian with pure ftpd installed with virtual users. I'm not an expert at all of unix systems. I used the documentation for my setup so the local account of pure ftpd is ftpuser:ftpgroup When a user uploads a file, the file is owned by ftpuser:ftpgroup. I want the uploaded file to be owned by another system user (mylocaluser). I added my virtual user this way : pure-pw useradd uploadimages -u mylocaluser -d /var/www/mysite/current/images (HowTos)

Stories similar to pure ftpd : how to set owner on files uploaded

I'm trying to add FTP access to the apache web files, in the past I have done this with an ftpuser and group arrangement.

I installed the pure-ftpd package (version 1.0.35-1) on an Ubuntu 12.04 box (an EC2 instance based on the standard Ubuntu 12.04 AMI).

The pure-ftpd daemon is running (verified with ps), though there is no PID file (expected one to be created by the /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd script).

Here's the resulting command that gets run by the init.d script:

/usr/sbin/pure-ftpd -l pam -O clf:/var/log/pure-ftpd

Hi,

Greetings!!!!!!!

I am trying to configure Pure-ftpd with authenticated users

But after configuring its giving the following error

"pure-ftpd: (?@?) [ERROR] Unable to start a standalone server: [Invalid argument]"

Ftp is not configured using xinetd services

kindly find the configuration file /etc/pure-ftpd/pure-ftpd.conf as the attachment

dont know what mistake i am doing but

Hello!

Im trying to setup an ftpserver with ssl using Pure-FTPd. I can connect to the server and all that, but the second i try to upload/download filezilla gets this error:

421 1 users (the maximum) are already logged in, sorry

I've googled like crazy but I cant find any solution to this.. I've tried setting MaxClientsNumber and MaxClientsPerIP 10 but it doesn't make a difference.

I asked this question on here late last night about how I can get the latest PHP, MySQL, and phpmyadmin on my 32bit installation of CentOS 5.8.

I was able to get PHP and MySQL back up and running successfully. I was unable to get phpmyadmin3 working, but phpmyadmin2 is still running like a champ. That's another can of worms.

However, during the process, my pure-ftpd was removed.

Hi I have a problem,

Just tried about 22 times to sort this out for myself, self learning you know.

I have the following in /etc/pure-ftpd.conf file:

Umask 212:027

Its working for the directory as per the: xxx:027 part, but I just cant seem to get it working for the files:

HiI did the following yum install pure-ftpd yum install openssl

vi /etc/pure-ftpd/pure-ftpd.conf

TSL 1 mkdir -p /etc/ssl/private/ ... [by agriz]

I just wanted to install a simple ftpd so I can access my media archives from my other pc's... but it has now turned into a 6 hour ordeal... this is my last hope so I don't have to dig out my Win7 disk.

I have installed pure-ftpd many times before but it has always been on dedicated servers running debian. I would shell in, download pure, ./configure, add a line to inetd and run it.
