**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Jan 14 02:59:58 2007 Jan 14 04:27:29 Hey all Jan 14 06:41:25 anyone around? Jan 14 07:02:46 hey guys, I'm thinking I might want to play around with a slug, but I have a quick question: I'd really like to keep it diskless, would it be possible for these things to boot off of PXE? Jan 14 07:03:27 I see that it can be used as a PXE server, but I'd really like to build a small diskless linux cluster out of em, and would rather not need a bunch of hd's lying around Jan 14 08:43:56 bit-wise: You can run them off of thumbs flash drives Jan 14 09:59:52 hello all - anyone help me with a setting within vsftpd? Jan 14 10:07:11 hey jelle Jan 14 10:52:36 has anyone figured out the comment from this guy on the vsftpd wiki page yet?: Jan 14 10:52:37 Comment: [Arno] This will allow the users to write or not write at all. What if there is a public directory that all users should have readonly access to (from their homedirs), but still be able to read/write in their own homedirs? Jan 14 11:19:29 anyone help with an error i'm gettin on my linksys webpage that says - error - fail to get number of users? Jan 14 11:38:21 anyone? Jan 14 11:49:43 anyone online? Jan 14 11:56:37 hi m1ch Jan 14 11:56:44 hey drif Jan 14 11:56:45 using standard firmware? Jan 14 11:56:55 just having some trouble with my users Jan 14 11:57:00 unslung 6.8 Jan 14 11:57:35 i had to edit my passwd file when setting up vsftpd to give users a home directory - i think it has buggered up my users for the web interface Jan 14 11:58:57 what kind of modifications did you do to it? Jan 14 12:00:37 drif - this is a post i made - it shows all my config as well Jan 14 12:00:38 http://www.nabble.com/Web-Interface-shows-no-users-after-setting-up-FTP-t2931457.html Jan 14 12:05:03 m1ch: I've actually never used those..me thinks... but does passwd support comments? I guess it does though.. or are those just made for the post? Jan 14 12:05:24 i've taken the commends out and no difference Jan 14 12:05:28 comments# Jan 14 12:05:45 yup, well that was just a sidenote Jan 14 12:06:12 what would restoring the default config do? Jan 14 12:06:47 you mean which method Jan 14 12:06:57 through the web interface Jan 14 12:07:37 just wondered if it would mean i could then create new users etc, or if it meat i'd end up having to unsling again and all problems -if so i would not do it Jan 14 12:08:25 I've never used that feature - hard to say Jan 14 12:08:29 yeh think i'm best not going for that yet Jan 14 12:08:33 any ideas on what i can do? Jan 14 12:08:52 it is bugging me Jan 14 12:10:26 just curious, what's this /bin.sh? Jan 14 12:10:36 should it say /bin/sh Jan 14 12:10:55 or do you have such symlink or similiar on / ? Jan 14 12:11:02 similar Jan 14 12:11:13 it gives the user a login shell Jan 14 12:11:34 and it's located at root level? Jan 14 12:11:43 yes Jan 14 12:12:21 it points to..? Jan 14 12:14:31 sorry yes, i changed it to bin/sh shortly after putting that post up as that was wrong Jan 14 12:14:46 thought so Jan 14 12:15:37 in putty i can log in as root...then log in as a different user...and it is fine Jan 14 12:15:49 but the web interface wont show the user - nor will it let me log into private data Jan 14 12:29:32 ls -l /etc/passwd Jan 14 12:29:55 could I see the output Jan 14 12:35:16 logged in as root? Jan 14 12:35:42 it returns /etc/passwd Jan 14 12:35:49 ls -l Jan 14 12:36:09 CGI_ds.conf Jan 14 12:36:14 ??

Jan 14 13:10:23 i think so Jan 14 13:14:54 yeh it is not saving my password warlord Jan 14 13:15:49 i know linux can use shadow password but not sure on what that entails Jan 14 13:16:48 grrr Jan 14 13:16:51 just wont save it Jan 14 13:17:38 hmm i'll copy an ecrypted one and leave it at that Jan 14 13:36:46 i've created a user to use with ftp and set them in their chroot home but how do i disable them loging into ssh? i only want them to have ftp. Jan 14 13:37:06 if i set the shell to /dev/null then ftp doesnt work Jan 14 13:55:27 found it check_shell=no Jan 14 13:55:52 warlord you still on? Jan 14 13:57:13 yeah Jan 14 14:00:23 have you set different user permissions yet for vsftpd? Jan 14 14:00:37 i've got a user called ftpupload and one called ftpdownload and one called website Jan 14 14:01:04 i've set them to have their own conf but it only seems to take effect for ftpdownload and website - can't figure out why ftpupload just ingores it Jan 14 14:01:52 hi Jan 14 14:02:35 I've just unslung'd and would like to edit a file. Installed nano, but still get: nano: No such file or directory Jan 14 14:02:42 what to do?

Jan 14 14:03:16 make sure nano is in your path? Jan 14 14:03:34 how do I check this? Jan 14 14:03:39 jiff - you need to cd to the directory of the file first, or include it in the path Jan 14 14:03:48 you need to have permissions in the folder you want to work Jan 14 14:04:13 need either chmod or chgrp to set perms Jan 14 14:04:19 well, I'm logged in as root Jan 14 14:04:33 so to set myself to have full permissions in ftp folder - what is the command warlord? Jan 14 14:04:43 where is nano? /opt/sbin? Jan 14 14:04:59 yes Jan 14 14:05:09 chown ftpdownload /folder Jan 14 14:05:29 10(jiff5410): try running it using "/opt/sbin/nano" Jan 14 14:05:58 make sure /folder has perms rwx------ at least Jan 14 14:06:10 "/opt/sbin/nano: No such file or directory" Jan 14 14:06:43 what are the permissions set on nano? they need to have execute x Jan 14 14:06:52 ls -l /opt/sbin/nano Jan 14 14:07:13 ls: /opt/sbin/nano: No such file or directory Jan 14 14:07:28 huh? you said it was in there?

Jan 14 14:40:41 right well this is were linux perms and windows perms will make your head spin Jan 14 14:40:54 don't use linux perms Jan 14 14:41:08 forget setting permissions for linux to alow ftp Jan 14 14:41:27 infact no - i want eveyone to have full read/write permissions on it Jan 14 14:41:28 read up tip #3 in the link i sent above Jan 14 14:42:22 how can i set ftp folder to let anyone add/edit/delete in it? Jan 14 14:42:29 that is all i want come to think of it Jan 14 14:42:29 the linux user must then be a member of the same groups as the windows user - i know they are both in /etc/passwd but the default group seems to be everyone for the windows side Jan 14 14:42:53 you must have enabled write in vsftpd.conf Jan 14 14:43:01 yep that is enabled Jan 14 14:43:16 i just want my ftp folder to have full permissions for everyone and anyone now Jan 14 14:43:55 then the folder make the folder owned by admin and everyone Jan 14 14:44:04 chown admin:everyone folder Jan 14 14:44:09 then give the perms Jan 14 14:44:17 chmod 775 folder Jan 14 14:44:25 ahh 777 seemed to work? Jan 14 14:44:34 777 maybe too big but it's ok Jan 14 14:45:07 not sure how windows will right to it. maybe less so it might allow different perms in windows than ftp Jan 14 14:45:45 then make the folder the home in /etc/passwd for each user Jan 14 14:46:22 set check_shell=NO so you can use /dev/null for the users shell Jan 14 14:46:33 ok - want to try my FTP now warlord - i think it is working as expected Jan 14 14:46:39 local_enable=YES Jan 14 14:46:43 to let them logon Jan 14 14:46:57 write_enable=YES Jan 14 14:47:01 let them write Jan 14 14:47:16 Site: mperrin.homelinux.com USer: ftpupload Pass pa55w0rd Jan 14 14:47:24 let me know if you can download and upload?

Jan 14 14:53:01 you uploaded a file - yikes...how could that happen - i've got write_enable = NO for ftpdownload Jan 14 14:53:10 if you only have two users like that I'd definatley have the user_conf option. and just set write_enable=NO in one of them Jan 14 14:53:17 :) Jan 14 14:53:46 i can delete what i upload too Jan 14 14:54:16 this is worrying Jan 14 14:54:56 it's not using the user_conf i would suggest Jan 14 14:55:10 that works regardless of perms Jan 14 14:55:27 ok let me run through the user_conf thing with you then Jan 14 14:56:01 set this in vsftpd.conf Jan 14 14:56:03 user_config_dir=/opt/etc/vsftpd_user_conf Jan 14 14:56:08 create folder Jan 14 14:56:16 /opt/etc/vsftpd_user_conf Jan 14 14:56:36 do you delete EVERYTHING in the original conf file and just put that line in? Where did you put that line in? Jan 14 14:56:50 no just change the write_enable Jan 14 14:57:20 copy the whole conf to ftpupload and ftpdownload in that new folder Jan 14 14:57:26 make sure perms are readable! Jan 14 14:57:27 what do you change the write enable to in the original conf one then - and where abouts in it do you add that user_config line? Jan 14 14:57:55 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 14 14:52 vsftpd_user_conf Jan 14 14:58:02 leave original file at =YES Jan 14 14:58:26 if you like doesnt matter it'll get overwritten by user conf Jan 14 14:59:32 ok i've got that line about user_config towards the end of my opt/etc/vsftpd.conf file - that is ok isnt it? Jan 14 14:59:46 dont think it matters Jan 14 14:59:49 k Jan 14 15:00:37 now within vsftpd_user_conf i have 3 files - website ftpupload and ftpdownload Jan 14 15:00:50 they are just files with no extensions - do they need .conf at the end or anything? Jan 14 15:00:59 that'd do it. tthen just tweak as necessary Jan 14 15:01:07 no .conf Jan 14 15:01:11 just hte username Jan 14 15:01:20 ok that is what i have though?

Jan 14 15:17:14 I would like to build a small (maybe 5) cluster out of slugs, and diskless would probably be easiest Jan 14 15:17:48 I'm thinking one master node with a usb hd, then 4-5 diskless ones that can boot PXE or something Jan 14 15:18:12 outta my league i'm afraid Jan 14 15:18:33 just going to paste bin my opt/etc/vsftpd.conf file warlod for you Jan 14 15:18:35 mine too, hehe Jan 14 15:18:52 want mine dcc?

Jan 14 15:25:11 i'll edit it if i can (no password for some parts) Jan 14 15:25:16 i love# Jan 14 15:25:18 well... i'm gone Jan 14 15:25:36 k thanks for that Jan 14 15:25:39 catch you soon Jan 14 17:48:26 hey, I have BIND setup and working Jan 14 17:48:41 I have it as my DNS server and it resolves sites and everything Jan 14 17:49:31 however, I want it to also resolve internal addresses like 192.168.2.whatever should always be something like whatever.2.168.192.intranet Jan 14 17:49:42 I can't figure this part out Jan 14 17:58:10 you need to manually update your zone files if you don't use dhcpd Jan 14 17:58:31 been a long while since i used bind Jan 14 17:59:41 I don't use dhcp Jan 14 17:59:56 i suspect you have it configured as a forward only and you have no zone files then? Jan 14 18:00:13 I have a db.192.168 Jan 14 18:00:33 and you must reference that in the bind config iirc Jan 14 18:00:40 I don't really know much in this area Jan 14 18:00:48 it is Jan 14 18:00:53 you should also have a home.local zone file too Jan 14 18:01:10 zone "168.192.in-addr.arpa" { Jan 14 18:01:10 type master; Jan 14 18:01:10 file "/opt/etc/named/db.192.168.rev"; Jan 14 18:01:10 allow-update { none; }; Jan 14 18:01:10 notify no; Jan 14 18:01:11 }; Jan 14 18:01:17 the db.192.168 is just the reverse portion so you can get number to name Jan 14 18:02:10 you should have a zone "mydomain.local" { } section too Jan 14 18:02:15 one sec Jan 14 18:02:52 http://ww2.jwjkp.com/code.php <--my named.conf Jan 14 18:03:20 zone "localhost" ??? Jan 14 18:03:34 i think that's the problem Jan 14 18:03:36 idk Jan 14 18:03:41 I just copied most of this from the wiki Jan 14 18:03:59 what's wrong with it Jan 14 18:04:01 iwhat are you calling your internal domain machines? Jan 14 18:04:12 mypc.mydomain.local is usual Jan 14 18:04:52
