proFTPd problem – almost works….
Hi guys,
I have been trying to install proFTPd for the last 2 days with little success. Let me tell you what I've learned so far, hopefully to help others, then I'll see if anyone can help me.
I am running Mac OS 10.3.1 and proFTPd 1.2.9 with sql_mod
[b:3ecb687329]Problem #1:[/b:3ecb687329] Make file won't compile, error
[b:3ecb687329]Solution:[/b:3ecb687329] Don't download the sql_mod from the tutorial, instead use the one already provided by proftpd. Also, I used the binary download of mySql so my configure command looked like this:
[color=green:3ecb687329]./configure --with-modules=mod_sql:mod_sql_mysql --with-includes=/usr/local/mysql/include --with-libraries=/usr/local/mysql/lib
[/color:3ecb687329]
[b:3ecb687329]Problem #2:[/b:3ecb687329] Various config file problems, standalone and inetd
[b:3ecb687329]Solution:[/b:3ecb687329] Well, I just played around for a while, but ended up modifying and using the mod_sql.conf file in the sample_configurations folder
Something I learned is that if you are in /etc/pam.d and sudo ln-s ftpd ftp then proFTPd will use both the sqlAuth and the system accounts
[b:3ecb687329]My Problem:[/b:3ecb687329]
So.... I can now finally login using my accounts, but immediately I receive a connection closed/failure message. I read that I need to have world writable directories so I made my HD and /www 777 and created the default dir to be /www this has been unsuccessful so far and I have run out of ideas.
Here is my [url=http://davidkassa.dyndns.org/proftpd.conf.txt]config file[/url]
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
David Kassa
