Package: vsftpd Version: 2.3.2-3+squeeze2 Severity: wishlist In order to enable a passwordless, anonymous file-sharing service for a scanner and multiple PCs on a private network, I needed to use man vsftpd to find these parameters:
diff /etc/vsftpd.conf junk2/etc/vsftpd.conf 24,29d23 < anon_root=/home/ftp/ < no_anon_password=yes < anon_world_readable_only=no < dirlist_enable=yes < anon_other_write_enable=yes < anon_umask=007 It would be more convenient if they were documented internally, with defaults and warnings, in /etc/vsftpd.conf. Such a server is needed where guests frequently visit and need to share images from smart phones, tablets and notebooks with the residents who use the scanner and various PCs. If not documented in /etc/vsftpd.conf, there should be an example configuration file. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages vsftpd depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.19-3 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libpam-modules 1.1.1-6.1+squeeze1 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam0g 1.1.1-6.1+squeeze1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze7 SSL shared libraries ii libwrap0 7.6.q-19 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii netbase 4.45 Basic TCP/IP networking system Versions of packages vsftpd recommends: ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility vsftpd suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/vsftpd.conf changed: listen=YES anonymous_enable=YES anon_root=/home/ftp/ no_anon_password=yes anon_world_readable_only=no dirlist_enable=yes anon_other_write_enable=yes anon_umask=007 write_enable=YES anon_upload_enable=YES anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES dirmessage_enable=YES use_localtime=YES xferlog_enable=YES connect_from_port_20=YES secure_chroot_dir=/var/run/vsftpd/empty pam_service_name=vsftpd rsa_cert_file=/etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem -- debconf information: vsftpd/directory: /srv/ftp vsftpd/username: ftp -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
