# Example config file /etc/vsftpd.conf # # The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file # loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable. # Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults. # # If you do not change anything here you will have a minimum setup for an # anonymus FTP server. # # READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive list of vsftpd options. # Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a full idea of vsftpd's # capabilities. # General Settings # # Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command. # write_enable=YES # # Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they # go into a certain directory. # dirmessage_enable=YES # # It is recommended that you define on your system a unique user which the # ftp server can use as a totally isolated and unprivileged user. # #nopriv_user=ftpsecure # # You may fully customise the login banner string: # ftpd_banner="Welcome to thepatch FTP service." # # You may activate the "-R" option to the builtin ls. This is disabled by # default to avoid remote users being able to cause excessive I/O on large # sites. However, some broken FTP clients such as "ncftp" and "mirror" assume # the presence of the "-R" option, so there is a strong case for enabling it. # #ls_recurse_enable=YES # # You may specify a file of disallowed anonymous e-mail addresses.
