Vsftp help
by Richard Victor Correia 05 Dec '08

05 Dec '08

Hi I am facing problem in setting up vsftpd. System: CentOS 5, vsftpd-2.0. I am able to connect to server using windos inbuilt ftp program, but filezilla and winscp fails to connect. Then I turned OFF SELinux and IPtables to check if active/passive mode is creating problem. Still no luck. Can someone help me resolve this? Thanks Richard

Duration: 1-2 days assignment. Domain expertise: LDAP installation/configuration (openLDAP or Fedora DS) We want to implement LDAP for: 1.

Access to resources on workstation, e.g. users restricted to using local devices like CDROM, USB ports, etc. 4. SMTP/POP3/IMAP integration (postfix, dovecot) 5. Samba integration - windows domain login via Samba/LDAP Please contact me off list (knura at yahoo dot com) if you have the LDAP experience to implement the above setup. I know the LDAP basics and can work with off location consultant over chat/phone. -- Arun Khan

Special Permissions as those in NTFS
by Rony Bill 01 Dec '08

01 Dec '08

Hello, In the NTFS file system, under the security option in a folder's properties, there is an advanced option where a user/group can be restricted from writing or deleting existing files in the directory but at the same time can be granted permission to create a new file or folder. So while existing data on that folder cannot be edited or deleted, the user can paste new files in that folder. Can such special permissions be granted in EXT3 or JFS file systems? On the net I find that advanced ACLs mainly have 3 options of read write and execute. If write permission is granted, user will delete files. Without read permission, user cannot paste new files. -- Regards, Rony. GNU/Linux No Viruses No Spyware Only Freedom.
