- Open ftp service
- 1. If ftp service is not open, open it following the last mail I sent before.
- 2. Step 2, by default step 1 only open the normal user’s ftp privilege(like test), users like root, oracle are denied from the ftp user list.
- So you have two choices:
- 1) copy files from oracle user to test user. Then send files by test user from 99 to 15 node.
- 2) Open oracle user’s ftp privilege. If so go to Step 3.
- 3. Step 3, to open oracle user’s ftp privilege, do following:
- 1) Login as root
- 2) Vi /etc/ftpusers
- #
- # ftpusers This file describes the names of the users that may
- # _*NOT*_ log into the system via the FTP server.
- # This usually includes "root", "uucp", "news" and the
- # like, because those users have too much power to be
- # allowed to do "just" FTP...
- #oracle //mark oracle from the list.
- 3) Save and done.
Then you can happy to copy files through ftp use the oracle user now. - 4) As the oracle user have too much power, it’s dangerous to open the ftp privilege. I suggest to closed it after you finished your job (move the mark from /etc/ftpusers).
