Cannot get vsftpd to work 31 weeks 5 hours ago

I have installed vsftpd on my server. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

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'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

Hi,

i read a lot of posts on internet about how to configure vsFTPd under Ubuntu 12.04.

[ubuntu] Vsftpd problem 1 year 13 weeks ago

Hi, I have just installed vsftpd(2.3.0~pre2-4ubuntu2.3).

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_p

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

[ubuntu] ftp server 31 weeks 5 days ago

i am trying to access my ftp through the web browser

I installed vsftpd i changed /etc/vsftpd.conf: anonymous_enable=NO write_enable=YES

i am able to connect via filezilla, but when i go via website it hangs, and eventually does nothing

What am i doing wrong?

System: Linux Ubuntu 10.04

I have set up a vsftpd server and everythings seems to work fine if you log in over a browser, but if I log in using winscp then I can navigate out of my own home directory which is avtually restricted by the config file (below)

Does anyone know why this would happen?
