Allow is typically used in conjunction with Order and Deny in order to create sophisticated (or perhaps not-so-sophisticated) access control rules. Allow takes an optional first argument; the keyword from. Using from is purely cosmetic. The remaining arguments are expected to be a list of hosts and networks which will be explicitly granted access. The magic keyword all can be used to indicate that all hosts will explicitly be granted access (analogous to the AllowAll directive, except with a lower priority). Additionally, the magic keyword none can be used to indicate that no hosts or networks will be explicitly granted access (although this does not prevent them from implicitly being granted access). If all or none is used, no other hosts or networks can be supplied. Host and network addresses can be specified by name or numeric address. For security reasons, it is recommended that all address information be supplied numerically. Relying solely on named addresses causes security to depend a great deal upon DNS servers which may themselves be vulnerable to attack or spoofing. Numeric addresses which specify an entire network should end in a trailing period (i.e. 10.0.0. for the entire 10.0.0 subnet). Named address which specify an entire network should begin with a trailing period (i.e. .proftpd.net for the entire proftpd.net domain). </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <link linkend="Allow">Allow</link> <link linkend="Order">Order</link> <link linkend="Limit">Limit</link> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <programlisting> <Limit LOGIN> Order allow,deny Allow from 128.44.26.,128.44.26.,myhost.mydomain.edu,.trusted-domain.org Deny from all </Limit> </programlisting> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="AllowAll"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_AllowAll.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>AllowAll</primary></indexterm> AllowAll </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>AllowAll</refname> <refpurpose>Allow all clients </refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>AllowAll</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>AllowAll</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> Default is to implicitly AllowAll, but not explicitly </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> <Directory>, <Anonymous>, <Limit>, .ftpaccess </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 0.99.0 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The AllowAll directive explicitly allows access to a <Directory>, <Anonymous> or <Limit> block.

In either case, the client is sent an "Invalid port" error and a message is syslog'd indicating either "address mismatch" or "bounce attack". By enabling this directive, proftpd will allow clients to transmit foreign data connection addresses that do not match the client's address. This allows such tricks as permitting a client to transfer a file between two FTP servers without involving itself in the actual data connection. Generally it's considered a bad idea, security-wise, to permit this sort of thing. AllowForeignAddress only affects data connection addresses; not tcp ports. There is no way (and no valid reason) to allow a client to use a low-numbered port in its PORT command.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="AllowGroup"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_AllowGroup.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>AllowGroup</primary></indexterm> AllowGroup </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>AllowGroup</refname> <refpurpose>Group based allow rules</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>AllowGroup</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>group-expression</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> None </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> <Limit> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.1.1 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> AllowGroup specifies a group-expression that is specifically permitted within the context of the <Limit> block it is applied to. group-expression has the same format as that used in DefaultRoot, in that it should contain a comma separated list of groups or "not" groups (by prefixing a group name with the `!' character) that are to be allowed access to the block.

However using AuthUsingAlias authentication can be matched against the password of the login username.

The root-directory parameters specifies which directory the daemon will first chdir to, and then chroot, immediately after login. Once the chroot operation successfully completes, higher level directories are no longer accessible to the running child daemon (and thus the logged in user). By default, proftpd assumes an anonymous login if the remote client attempts to login as the currently running user; unless the current user is root, in which case anonymous logins are not allowed regardless of the presence of an <Anonymous> block. To force anonymous logins to be bound to a user other than the current user, see the User and Group directives. In addition, if a User or Group directive is present in an <Anonymous> block, the daemon permanently switches to the specified uid/gid before chroot()ing. Normally, anonymous logins are not required to authenticate with a password, but are expected to enter a valid e-mail address in place of a normal password (which is logged). If this behavior is undesirable for a given <Anonymous> configuration block, it can be overridden via the AnonRequirePassword directive. </para> <para> Note: Chroot()ed anonymous directories do not need to have supplemental system files in them, nor do they need to have any sort of specific directory structure. This is because proftpd is designed to acquire as much system information as possible before the chroot, and to leave open those files which are needed for normal operation and reside outside the new root directory. </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <programlisting> Example of a typical anonymous FTP configuration: <Anonymous /home/ftp> User ftp # After anonymous login, daemon runs as user ftp.

For more information on group-expressions see the DefaultRoot directive. If the authenticating user is matched by an AnonymousGroup directive, no valid password is required, and a special dynamic anonymous configuration is created, with the user's home directory as the default root directory. If a DefaultRoot directive also applies to the user, this directory is used instead of the user's home dir. Great care should be taken when using AnonymousGroup, as improper configuration can open up user home directories to full read/write access to the entire world.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <link linkend="AuthAliasOnly">AuthAliasOnly</link> <link linkend="AuthUsingAlias">AuthUsingAlias</link> <link linkend="AnonRequirePassword">AnonRequirePassword</link> <link linkend="DefaultRoot">DefaultRoot</link> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="AuthAliasOnly"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_AuthAliasOnly.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_auth </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>AuthAliasOnly</primary></indexterm> AuthAliasOnly </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>AuthAliasOnly</refname> <refpurpose>Allow only aliased login names</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>AuthAliasOnly</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>on|off</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> AuthAliasOnly off </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost>, <Anonymous>, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_auth </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.1.3 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> AuthAliasOnly restricts authentication to "aliased" logins only; i.e. those usernames provided by clients which are "mapped" to a real userid by the UserAlias directive.

If DefaultRoot is set to a directory other than "/", a chroot operation is performed immediately after a client authenticates. This can be used to effectively isolate the client from a portion of the host system filespace. The specified root directory must begin with a / or can be the magic character '~'; meaning that the client is chroot jailed into their home directory. </para> <para> When the specified chroot directory is a symlink this will be resolved to it's parent first before setting up the chroot. This can have unwanted side effects. For example if a chroot is to be configured within space to which a user as shell access, the chroot directory could be converted to a symlink pointing at '/'. Thus the chroot would be to the root directory of the server. </para> <para> If the DefaultRoot directive specifies a directory which disallows access to the logged-in user's home directory, the user's current working directory after login is set to the DefaultRoot instead of their normal home directory. DefaultRoot cannot be used in <Anonymous> configuration blocks, as the <Anonymous> directive explicitly contains a root directory used for Anonymous logins. The special character '~' is replaced with the authenticating user's home directory immediately after login. Note that the default root may be a subdirectory of the home directory, such as "~/anon-ftp". </para> <para> The optional group-expression argument can be used to restrict the DefaultRoot directive to a unix group, groups or subset of groups. The expression takes the format: [!]group-name1[,[!]group-name2[,...]]. The expression is parsed in a logical boolean AND fashion, such that each member of the expression must evaluate to logically TRUE in order for the DefaultRoot directive to apply. The special character '!' is used to negate group membership. </para> <para> Care should be taken when using DefaultRoot. Chroot "jails" should not be used as methods for implementing general system security as there are potentially ways that a user can "escape" the jail. </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <programlisting> Example of a DefaultRoot configuration: ServerName "A test ProFTPD Server" ServerType inetd User ftp Group ftp # # This causes proftpd to perform a chroot into the authenticating user's directory immediately after login. # Once this happens, the user is unable to "see" higher level directories. # Because a group-expression is included, only users who are a member of # the group 'users' and NOT a member of 'staff' will have their default # root directory set to '~'.

The block is ended with </Directory>. Per-directory configuration is enabled during run-time with a "closest" match algorithm, meaning that the <Directory> directive with the closest matching path to the actual pathname of the file or directory in question is used. Per-directory configuration is inherited by all sub-directories until a closer matching <Directory> is encountered, at which time the original per-directory configuration is replaced with the closer match. Note that this does not apply to <Limit> </Limit> blocks, which are inherited by all sub-directories until a <Limit> block is reached in a closer match.</para> <para> A trailing slash and wildcard ("/*") can be appended to the directory, specifying that the configuration block applies only to the contents (and sub-contents), not to the actual directory itself. Such wildcard matches always take precedence over non-wildcard <Directory> configuration blocks. <Directory> blocks cannot be nested (they are automatically nested at run-time based on their pathnames). Pathnames must always be absolute (except inside <Anonymous>), and should not reference symbolic links. Pathnames inside an <Anonymous> block can be relative, indicating that they are based on the anonymous root directory.</para> <para> [Notes for ProFTPD 1.1.3 and later only] Pathnames that begin with the special character '~' and do not specify a username immediately after ~ are put into a special deferred mode. When in deferred mode, the directory context is not hashed and sorted into the configuration tree at boot time, but rather this hashing is deferred until a user authenticates, at which time the '~' character is replaced with the user's home directory. This allows a global <Directory> block which applies to all user's home directories, or sub-directories thereof. </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <link linkend="Limit">Limit</link> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <programlisting> #Default usage of the directory directive <Directory /users/robroy/private> HideNoAccess </Directory> #Example with username-expanding <Directory ~/anon-ftp> <Limit WRITE> DenyAll </Limit> </Directory> </programlisting> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="DisplayConnect"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_DisplayConnect.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>DisplayConnect</primary></indexterm> DisplayConnect </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>DisplayConnect</refname> <refpurpose>Sets connect banner file</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>DisplayConnect</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>DisplayConnect filename</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> None </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost>, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.2.0pre2 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The DisplayConnect directive configures an ASCII text filename which will be displayed to the user when they initially connect but before they login.

A <Limit> section, with IgnoreHidden enabled, does the actual hiding of the files from the <Limit>ed commands. </para> <para> As <Directory> configurations are inherited by sub-directories, the "none" parameter can be used to disable any inherited file hiding within a sub-directory, usually through the use of a .ftpaccess file. </para> <para> The optional parameters are used to restrict the rule for hiding files only to specific users.

Limits flow downward, so that a Limit configuration in the server config context applies to all <Directory> and <Anonymous> blocks that also reside in the configuration; until it is overridden by a "lower" <Limit> block. Any number of command parameters can be specified, against which the contents of the <Limit> block will be applied. command can be any valid FTP command, but is generally one of the following: CWD (Change Working Directory) Sent by client when changing directories. MKD / XMKD (MaKe Directory) Sent by client to create a new directory. RNFR (ReName FRom), RNTO (ReName TO) Sent as a pair by client to rename a directory entry. DELE (DELEte) Sent by client to delete a file. RMD / XRMD (ReMove Directory) Sent by client to remove a directory. RETR (RETRieve) Transfer a file from the server to the client. STOR (STORe) Transfer a file from the client to the server. In addition, the following command-groups are accepted. They have a lower precedence than real commands, meaning that a real command limit will always be applied instead of the command-group. READ All FTP commands which deal with file reading (directory listing not included): RETR, SITE, SIZE, STAT WRITE All FTP commands which deal with file or directory write/creation/deletion: APPE, DELE, MKD, RMD, RNTO, STOR, XMKD, XRMD DIRS All FTP commands which deal with directory listing: CDUP, CWD, LIST, MDTM, NLST, PWD, RNFR, XCUP, XCWD, XPWD ALL ALL FTP commands (identical to READ WRITE DIRS). Note this group has the lowest precedence of all; it will not override a limit imposed by another command-group (e.g. DIRS). Finally, a special command is allowed which can be used to control login access: LOGIN Connection or login to the server. Applying a <Limit> to this pseudo-command can be used to allow or deny initial connection or login to the context. It has no effect, and is ignored, when used in a context other than server config, <VirtualHost> or <Anonymous> (i.e. using it in a <Directory> context is meaningless). <Limit> command restrictions should not be confused with file/directory access permission. While limits can be used to restrict a command on a certain directory, they cannot be used to override the file permissions inherent to the base operating/file system. The following FTP commands cannot be restricted via <Limit>: ABOR HELP MODE (not implemented, always S) NOOP PASS (use <Limit LOGIN>) PASV PORT QUIT REST (use AllowRetrieveRestart, AllowStoreRestart) STRU (not implemented, always F) SYST TYPE USER (use <Limit LOGIN>) </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> See Also: IgnoreHidden <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="LogFormat"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_LogFormat.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_log </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>LogFormat</primary></indexterm> LogFormat </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>LogFormat</refname> <refpurpose>Specify a logging format</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>LogFormat</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>LogFormat nickname "format-string"</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> LogFormat default "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b" </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_log </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.1.6pl1 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The LogFormat directive can be used to create a custom logging format for use with the ExtendedLog directive.

Because Allow directives are permissive, and Deny directives restrictive, the order in which they are examined can significantly alter the way security functions. If the default setting of allow,deny is used, "allowed" access permissions are checked first. If an Allow directive explicitly allows access to the <Limit> context, access is granted and any Deny directives are never checked. If Allow did not explicitly permit access, Deny directives are checked. If any Deny directive applies, access is explicitly denied. Otherwise, access is granted. When deny,allow is used, "deny" access restrictions are checked first. If any restriction applies, access is denied immediately. If nothing is denied, Allow permissions are checked. If an Allow explicitly permits access, access to the entire context is permitted; otherwise access is implicitly denied. For clarification, the following illustrates the steps used when checking Allow/Deny access: Order allow,deny Check Allow directives. If one or more apply, exit with result: ALLOW Check Deny directives. If one or more apply, exit with result: DENY Exit with default implicit ALLOW Order deny,allow Check Deny directives. If one or more apply, exit with result: DENY Check Allow directives.

If set to On, proftpd will attempt to open the system-wide /etc/passwd, /etc/group (and /etc/shadow, potentially) files itself, holding them open even during a chroot()ed login (note that /etc/shadow is never held open, for security reasons). On some platforms, you must turn this option on, as the libc functions are incapable of accessing these databases from inside of a chroot(). At configure-time, the configuration script will attempt to detect whether or not you need this support, and make it the default. However, such "guessing" may fail, and you will have to manually enable or disable the feature. If you cannot see user or group names when performing a directory listing inside an anonymous chrooted login, this indicates you must enable the directive. Use of the AuthUserFile or AuthGroupFile directives will force partial support for persistent user or group database files; regardless of PersistentPasswd's setting. </para> <para> Note: NIS or NIS+ users will most likely want to disable this feature, regardless of proftpd's detected configuration defaults. Failure to disable this will make your NIS/NIS+ maps not work! On certain systems, you may also need to compile ProFTPD with the --enable-autoshadow option in order to authenticate both users from NIS maps and local users.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="PidFile"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_PidFile.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>PidFile</primary></indexterm> PidFile </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>PidFile</refname> <refpurpose>Set the filepath to hold the pid of the master server</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>PidFile</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>PidFile filename</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> none </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.2.0rc2 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The PidFile directive sets the file to which the server records the process id of the daemon.

For example: SQLAuthTypes Crypt Empty means check whether the password in the database matches in UNIX crypt() format; if that fails, check to see if the password in the database is empty (matching ANY given password); if that fails, mod_sql refuses to authenticate the user. Current Types Plaintext: allows passwords in the database to be in plaintext OpenSSL: allows passwords in the database to be of the form '{digestname}hashedvalue'. This check is only available if you define 'HAVE_OPENSSL' when you compile proftd and you link with the OpenSSL 'crypto' library. Crypt: allows passwords in the database to be in UNIX crypt() form Backend: a database-specific backend check function. Not all backends support this. Specifically, the MySQL backend uses this type to authenticate MySQL 'PASSWORD()' encrypted passwords. The Postgres backend does nothing. Empty: allows empty passwords in the database, which match against ANYTHING the user types in. The database field must be a truly empty string -- that is, NULL values are never accepted.

Specifies connection information. Connection-info specifies the database, host, port, and other backend-specific information. username and password specify the username and password to connect as, respectively. Both default to NULL, which the backend will treat in some backend-specific manner. If you specify a password, you MUST specify a username. Any given backend has the opportunity (but not the responsibility) to check for syntax errors in the connection-info field at proftpd startup, but you shouldn't expect semantic errors (i.e., can't connect to the database) to be caught until mod_sql attempts to connect for a given host. The MySQL and Postgres backends connection-info is expected to be of the form: database[@hostname][:port] hostname will default to a backend-specific hostname (which happens to be 'localhost' for both the MySQL and Postgres backends), and port will default to a backend-specific default port (3306 for the MySQL backend, 5432 for the Postgres backend). Examples: SQLConnectInfo ftpusers@foo.com means "Try connecting to the database 'ftpuser' via the default port at 'foo.com'. Use a NULL username and a NULL password." SQLConnectInfo ftpusers:3000 admin means "Try connecting to the database 'ftpuser' via port 3000 at 'localhost'. Use the username 'admin' and a NULL password." SQLConnectInfo ftpusers@foo.com:3000 admin mypassword means "Try connecting to the database 'ftpuser' via port 3000 at 'foo.com'.

It necessarily breaks ALL CONFIG FILES up to 1.2.0rc2, since mod_sql now assumes that group information is available UNLESS this directive is set to OFF. This DOESN'T override SQLAuthoritative -- if SQLAuthoritative is set to 'On' but SQLDoGroupAuth is set to 'Off', all group-related queries will fail without giving other modules the opportunity to handle them. Prior to 1.2.0, there was no way to provide group information from the database. This caused a few bugs, and reduced the functionality of this module. </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="SQLEmptyPasswords"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_SQLEmptyPasswords.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_sql </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>SQLEmptyPasswords</primary></indexterm> SQLEmptyPasswords </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>SQLEmptyPasswords</refname> <refpurpose>Allow zero length passwords (DEPRECATED)</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>SQLEmptyPasswords</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>on|off</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> off </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <Global>, <VirtualHost> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_sql </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.2.0rc2 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para>This directive is deprecated, please use SQLAuthTypes instead</para> <para> Specifies whether an empty (non-NULL but zero-length) password is acceped from the database.

Depending on your SQL tables, there can be a significant delay when a directory listing is performed as the UIDs not in the SQL database are repeatedly looked up in an attempt to present usernames instead of UIDs in directory listings. With SQLNegativeCache set to on, negative ("not found") responses from SQL queries will be cached and speed will improve on directory listings that contain many users not present in the SQL

The default behavior is to show all symbolic links when normal users are logged in, and hide them for anonymous sessions. If a symbolic link cannot be dereferenced for any reason (permissions, target does not exist, etc) and ShowSymlinks is off, proftpd displays the link as a directory entry of type 'l' (link) with the ownership and permissions of the actual link. Under ProFTPD versions 1.1.5 and higher, the default behavior in regard to ShowSymlinks has been changed so that symbolic links are always displayed as such (in all cases), unless ShowSymlinks off is explicitly set.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="SocketBindTight"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_SocketBindTight.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>SocketBindTight</primary></indexterm> SocketBindTight </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>SocketBindTight</refname> <refpurpose>Controls how TCP/IP sockets are created</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>SocketBindTight</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>SocketBindTight on|off</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> SocketBindTight off </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 0.99.0pl6 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The SocketBindTight directive controls how proftpd creates and binds its initial tcp listen sockets in standalone mode (see ServerType). The directive has no effect upon servers running in inetd mode, because listen sockets are not needed or created. When SocketBindTight is set to off (the default), a single listening socket is created for each port that the server must listen on, regardless of the number of IP addresses being used by <VirtualHost> configurations. This has the benefit of typically requiring a relatively small number of file descriptors for the master daemon process, even if a large number of virtual servers are configured. If SocketBindTight is set to on, a listen socket is created and bound to a specific IP address for the master server and all configured virtual servers. This allows for situations where an administrator may wish to have a particular port be used by both proftpd (on one IP address) and another daemon (on a different IP address). The drawback is that considerably more file descriptors will be required if a large number of virtual servers must be supported. Example: Two servers have been configured (one master and one virtual), with the IP addresses 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2, respectively. The 10.0.0.1 server runs on port 21, while 10.0.0.2 runs on port 2001. SocketBindTight off #default # proftpd creates two sockets, both bound to ALL available addresses. # one socket listens on port 21, the other on 2001. Because each socket is # bound to all available addresses, no other daemon or user process will be # allowed to bind to ports 21 or 2001. ... SocketBindTight on # proftpd creates two sockets again, however one is bound to 10.0.0.1, port 21 # and the other to 10.0.0.2, port 2001. Because these sockets are "tightly" # bound to IP addresses, port 21 can be reused on any address OTHER than # 10.0.0.1, and visa-versa with 10.0.0.2, port 2001. One side-effect of setting SocketBindTight to on is that connections to non-bound addresses will result in a "connection refused" message rather than the typical "500 Sorry, no server available to handle request on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.", due to the fact that no listen socket has been bound to the particular address/port pair. This may or may not be aesthetically desirable, depending on your circumstances.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="StoreUniquePrefix"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_StoreUniquePrefix.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword>mod_xfer</keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>StoreUniquePrefix</primary></indexterm> StoreUniquePrefix </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>StoreUniquePrefix</refname> <refpurpose>Set the prefix to be added to uniquely generated filenames</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>StoreUniquePrefix</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>"prefix"</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> none </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <Global>, <VirtualHost>, <Global>, <Anonymous>, <Directory> .ftpaccess </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_xfer </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.2.6rc1 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The StoreUniquePrefix is used to configure a prefix for the generated unique random filenames used for the STOU FTP command.

The SyslogFacility directive allows ALL logging messages to be directed to a different facility than the default. When this directive is used, ALL logging is done with the specified facility, both authentication (secure) and otherwise. The facility-level argument must be one of the following: AUTH (or AUTHPRIV), CRON, DAEMON, KERN, LPR, MAIL, NEWS, USER, UUCP, LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6 or LOCAL7.

By default, proftpd runs as root which is considered undesirable in all but the most trustful network configurations. The User directive used in conjunction with the Group directive instructs the daemon to switch to the specified user and group as quickly as possible after startup. On some unix variants, the daemon will occasionally switch back to root in order to accomplish a task which requires super-user access. Once the task is completed, root privileges are relinquished and the server continues to run as the specified user and group. When applied to a <VirtualServer> block, proftpd will run as the specified user/group on connections destined for the virtual server's address or port. If either User or Group is applied to an <Anonymous> block, proftpd will establish an anonymous login when a user attempts to login with the specified userid, as well as permanently switching to the corresponding uid/gid (matching the User/Group parameters found in the anonymous block) after login. Note: When an authorized unix user is authenticated and logs in, all former privileges are released, the daemon switches permanently to the logged in user's uid/gid, and is never again capable of switching back to root or any other user/group.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="UserAlias"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_UserAlias.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_auth </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>UserAlias</primary></indexterm> UserAlias </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>UserAlias</refname> <refpurpose>Alias a username to a system user</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>UserAlias</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>UserAlias login-user userid</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> None </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost>, <Anonymous>, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_auth </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 0.99.0 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> ProFTPD requires a real username/uid when authenticating users as provided by PAM, AuthUserFile or another authentication mechanism.

It is often used in conjunction with system level IP aliasing or dummy network interfaces in order to establish one or more "virtual" servers which all run on the same physical machine. The block is terminated with a </VirtualHost> directive. By utilizing the Port directive inside a VirtualHost block, it is possible to create a virtual server which uses the same address as the master server, but listens on a separate tcp port (incompatible with ServerType inetd). When proftpd starts, virtual server connections are handled in one of two ways, depending on the ServerType setting: inetd The daemon examines the destination address and port of the incoming connection handed off from inetd. If the connection matches one of the configured virtual hosts, the connection is serviced based on the appropriate configuration. If no virtual host matches, and the main server does not match, the client is informed that no server is available to service their requests and disconnected. standalone After parsing the configuration file, the daemon begins listening for connections on all configured ports, spawning child processes as necessary to handle connections for either the main server or any virtual servers. Because of the method that the daemon uses to listen for connections when in standalone mode, it is possible to support an exceedingly large number of virtual servers, potentially exceeding the number of per-process file descriptors. This is due to the fact that a single file descriptor is used to listen to each configured port, regardless of the number of addresses being monitored. Note that it may be necessary to increase the tcpBackLog value on heavily loaded servers in order to avoid kernel rejected client connections ("Connection refused").</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="WtmpLog"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_WtmpLog.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>WtmpLog</primary></indexterm> WtmpLog </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>WtmpLog</refname> <refpurpose>Toggle logging to wtmp</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>WtmpLog</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>WtmpLog on|off|NONE</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> WtmpLog on </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost>, <Anonymous>, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.1.7 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The WtmpLog directive controls proftpd's logging of ftp connections to the host system's wtmp file (used by such commands as `last').

It has no affect upon servers in inetd mode. When a tcp connection is established by the tcp/ip stack inside the kernel, there is a short period of time between the actual establishment of the connection and the acceptance of the connection by a user-space program. The duration of this latency period is widely variable, and can depend upon several factors (hardware, system load, etc). During this period tcp connections cannot be accepted, as the port that was previously "listening" has become filled with the new connection. Under heavy connection load this can result in occasional (or even frequent!) "connection refused" messages returned to the incoming client, even when there is a service available to handle requests. To eliminate this problem, most modern tcp/ip stacks implement a "backlog queue" which is simply a pre-allocation of resources necessary to handle backlog-size connections during the latency period. The larger the backlog queue, the more connections can be established in a very short time period. The trade-off, of course, is kernel memory and/or other kernel resources. Generally it is not necessary to use a tcpBackLog directive, unless you intend to service a large number of virtual hosts (see <VirtualHost>), or have a consistently heavy system load. If you begin to notice or hear of "connection refused" messages from remote clients, try setting a slightly higher value to this directive.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="tcpNoDelay"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_tcpNoDelay.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>tcpNoDelay</primary></indexterm> tcpNoDelay </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>tcpNoDelay</refname> <refpurpose>Control the use of TCP_NODELAY</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>tcpNoDelay</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>tcpNoDelay on|off</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> tcpNoDelay on </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost>, <Global> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 1.2.0pre3a and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The tcpNoDelay directive controls the use of the TCP_NODELAY socket option (which disables the Nagle algorithm).

It is only used when receiving a file from a client over the data connection. Typically, a given tcp/ip implementation will use a relatively small receive window size (the number of octets that can be received at the tcp layer before a "turnaround" acknowledgement is required). When transferring a large amount of data over fast digital transmission lines which have a relatively high latency, a small receive window can dramatically affect perceived throughput because of the necessity to completely stop the transfer occasionally in order to wait for the remote endpoint to receive the acknowledgement and continue transmission. For example, on a T1 line (assuming full 1.544Mbps endpoint-to-endpoint throughput) with 100 ms latency, a 4k receive buffer will very dramatically reduce the perceived throughput. The default value of 8192 octets (8k) should be reasonable in common network configurations. Additionally, proftpd allocates its internal buffers to match the receive/send window sizes; in order to maximize the reception/transmission performance (reducing the number of times data must be transfered from proftpd to the kernel tcp/ip stack). The tradeoff, of course, is memory; both kernel- and user-space. If running proftpd on a memory tight host (and on a low-bandwidth connection), it might be advisable to decrease both the tcpReceiveWindow and tcpSendWindow sizes.</para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>See also</title> <para> <!-- <link linkend=""></link> --> </para> </refsect1> <refsect1> <title>Examples</title> <para> <!-- For examples, see <link linkend="Class">Class</link> --> </para> </refsect1> </refentry> <refentry id="tcpSendWindow"> <?dbhtml filename="config_ref_tcpSendWindow.html"> <refentryinfo> <keywordset> <keyword> mod_core </keyword> </keywordset> </refentryinfo> <refmeta> <refentrytitle> <indexterm><primary>tcpSendWindow</primary></indexterm> tcpSendWindow </refentrytitle> </refmeta> <refnamediv> <refname>tcpSendWindow</refname> <refpurpose>Set the size of the tcp send window</refpurpose> </refnamediv> <refsynopsisdiv> <cmdsynopsis> <command>tcpSendWindow</command> <arg choice="opt"> <option>tcpSendWindow window-size</option> </arg> <!-- <arg choice="opt" rep="repeat">file</arg> --> </cmdsynopsis> <variablelist><title></title> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Default</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> tcpSendWindow 8192 </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Context</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> server config, <VirtualHost> </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Module</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> mod_core </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry><term><synopsis>Compatibility</synopsis></term> <listitem> <para> 0.99.0 and later </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </refsynopsisdiv> <refsect1> <title>Description</title> <para> The tcpSendWindow directive configures the size (in octets) of all data connections' tcp send windows.
