Hmm there is a package (rpm) on the CDs/ftp site/where ever that sets up the
anonymous FTP dir stuff.
But I'll be damned if I know what it is :(
hmm lemme have a look....
keith@develop[pts/10]:~$ rpm -q -a|grep ftp
ftpdir-99.4.9-15
keith@develop[pts/10]:~$ rpm -q -l ftpdir
/usr/local/ftp/bin

Ah yes. ftpdir. This is for SuSE 6.2 tho. Chances are the name hasn't
changed. I don't know what set of packages you would find it in tho.
Goos luck,

Subject: [SLE] FTP
Afternoon All:
I'm looking at setting up FTP access to my machine, at least for me for
now. I used to use Red Hat 6.2, and found that when Red Hat was
installed, the /home/ftp was set with all of the appropriate folders (pub,
bin, etc.)
Looking at this directory after SuSE 6.4 was installed, I notice that
there is just the lost+found directory. Is there a document that shows
what to set up in /home/ftp/ for folders, what the purpose of each folder
is, and how to allow access for both anonymous users, and users who have
an account on my machine? I understand that the install of SuSE 6.4
probably did not set this automatically, as I can see how someone might
take advantage of an ftp site if the owner of the machine was unaware of
what was going.
Any pointers in the right direction?
- Mike
