    Solution:

     

    Found that I had to do the following to get

    FTP to work:

     

    1. vi /etc/passwd

    insure that user "ftp" had a home directory

    that was in writable user space, say /home/ftp.

     

    2. In the /home/ftp directory, made a subdir

    called "incoming" (can't do a root ftp put

    in the FTP home, anonymously).

     

    3. chmod/chown such that....

     

    drwxr-xr-x ftp root incoming

     

    4. QED, huh! Works now...finally.

    I am working a subnet where I am trying to FTP to a

    SuSE 9.0 LiveEval (bootable linux). I am begining

    to think I should just as well go out an pick four

    leaf clovers! Here is what I have done thus far...

     

    I INSTALLED AN FTP DAEMON...

     

    > cd /tmp

    > rpm -i -vv -force -root /windows/c/temp vsftpd-1.2.0-52.i586.rpm

    > cd /usr

    > mv local local.orig

    > ln -s local /windows/c/temp

    > mv sbin /windows/c/temp

    > cd /var/log

    > touch vsftpd.log

    > chmod 777 !$

    > cd /etc

    > vi vsftpd.conf

    --anonymous-enable=YES

    --local_enable=YES

    --write_enable=YES

    --local_umask=022

    --listen=YES

    --anon_upload_enable=YES

    --anon_mkdir_write=YES

    --connect_from_port_20=YES

    --secure_chroot_dir=/windows/c/temp/jail

    ----(also tried /tmp)

    > cd /usr/local

    > vsftpd &

    ...muns

     

    SEND THE FTP

    > ftp -a

    FTP> open HOST0

    ...I get the banner I set in the vsftpd.conf

    FTP> verbose on

    FTP> binary

    FTP> cd /tmp

    ...Failed to change diretory

    FTP> cd /windows

    ...Failed to change directory

    FTP> put random.dat

    ...Could not create file

     

     

    What gives? Is this even possible?

    Please enlighten me to the tao of

    SuSE ftp! smile
