ubuntu 16.04 ftp server build

ftp server build

Laboratory personality can buy a good workstation, intended to git and ftp server as a laboratory to do some configuration, stepped on a few pit, finally somehow, mark it

Installation ftp

sudo apt-get install vsftpd

Configuration

In installed vsftpd, it will produce a vsftpd.conf file in the / etc directory, this file is the ftp configuration file,
use
sudo vi /etc/vsftpd.conf
for editing

I did a column about the configuration

listen=NO
listen_ipv6=YES
anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
local_umask=022
dirmessage_enable=YES
use_localtime=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
chroot_local_user=NO
ftpd_banner=Welcome to xitongzu FTP service.
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list

It should be noted that there are several configuration to do some introduction:

• anonymous_enable = NO // disable anonymous login
• Permissions local_umask = 022 // create a file folder, the default is 077, will cause the folder you created only read access, no write permission, there is no access to the configuration where 022 users can CRUD and folders upload and download files
• xferlog_enable = YES // logging for uploading and downloading
• ftpd_banner = Welcome to xitongzu FTP service. // ftp enter the welcome message

Because this server is the presence of multiple users, I expect only one named ftpuser can log in and access the ftp service, we made the following configuration
* chroot_local_user = NO // disable all restrictions limit the user's home directory
* chroot_list_enable = YES / / set limits user access list
* chroot_list_file = / etc / vsftpd.chroot_list // limit specified list file

And created under / etc vsftpd.chroot_listfiles to remove the root , the FTP write all user names go outside

Ftp server restart

sudo service vsftpd restart

Now you can by visiting ftp: // <ip> way to use the ftp service

This ftp server has built a good, but because of the workstation configuration is stored as a solid + 4T 1T machinery, solid-state memory file is too wasteful, so I intend to modify the ftp service storage location to the mechanical hard disk

Preconditions: Mount mechanical hard drive

By sudo fdisk -lviewing the mechanical hard disk device name

It can be seen as a device /dev/sdb, I took him to mount in the / data directory, execute

sudo mount /dev/sdb /data

Create folders for storing files, ftp
sudo mkdir /data/ftp

And / data users / ftp folder to be modifiedftp

sudo chown -R ftp /data/ftp/

Subsequent action:
To ftp access to route guidance /data/ftp, i.e. / home / ftp catalog / data / ftp directory link

Using sudo mount --bind /data/ftp /home/ftpcommand bindings

Such on / modify home / ftp directory (ftp file access) is actually / modify data / ftp directory
