RE: ftp server with no shell accounts

2006-05-11 Thread Scott Hiemstra
 I tried the default ftp server with FreeBSD 5.4 and users 
 with no shell 
 accounts but it does not work.
 
 Does anyone know of a ftp server that users would still have home 
 directories but no shell access /sbin/nologin and that could still 
 upload files to there home directories.

The default ftpd will work with a little tweaking.

1.  touch /bin/ftpshell
2.  echo /bin/ftpshell  /etc/shells
3.  When you add your users, set their shell to /bin/ftpshell
4.  echo USERNAME  /etc/ftpchroot

The users will be able to login via ftp and nothing else because there shell
is a crap fake shell.  The ftpchroot will lock them into their home
directory very effectively.

Try proftpd in the ports.

I much prefer the pure-ftpd implementation of virtual users. However,
both will get the job done effectively. The only reason I really
prefer pure over pro is that pure has never had one root exploit found
since release number 1. That's reason enough for me :)
