Could someone take a look at this configuration for me? My question is, why is it denying my anonymous login? [its actually the default anon config, which is why I don't understand it not working]
220 ProFTPD 1.2.9rc2 Server (ProFTPD Default Installation) [localhost]
USER ftp 331 Anonymous login ok, send your complete email address as your password.
PASS xxxx
530 Login incorrect.
# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to # 'proftpd.conf' for actual use. It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login. It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.
ServerName "ProFTPD Default Installation" ServerType standalone DefaultServer on
# Port 21 is the standard FTP port. Port 21
# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files # from being group and world writable. Umask 022
# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes # to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections # at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works # in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server # that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service # (such as xinetd). MaxInstances 30
# Set the user and group under which the server will run. User proftpd Group proftpd
# To cause every FTP user to be "jailed" (chrooted) into their home # directory, uncomment this line. DefaultRoot ~
# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable. <Directory /> AllowOverwrite on </Directory>
# A basic anonymous configuration, no upload directories. If you do not # want anonymous users, simply delete this entire <Anonymous> section. <Anonymous ~> User ftp Group ftp
# We want clients to be able to login with "anonymous" as well as "ftp" UserAlias anonymous ftp
# Limit the maximum number of anonymous logins MaxClients 10
# We want 'welcome.msg' displayed at login, and '.message' displayed # in each newly chdired directory. DisplayLogin welcome.msg DisplayFirstChdir .message
# Limit WRITE everywhere in the anonymous chroot <Limit WRITE> DenyAll </Limit> </Anonymous>
I hate to be obvious, as you've probably done it, but the first couple of lines in the header are:
# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use. It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login. It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.
so did you:
(rename it to # 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.
