After abandoning WU-ftpd since my move to Red Hat 9 I've tried to quickly set up an FTP share with vsftpd. The share is a live WWW webfolder that I will upload new files to. Created a User with /sbin/nologin group FTP and home directory /var/www/html/.
After logging in I haven't been able to write to the folder, I did manage to get a Read/Write FTP share by chmodding the contents of HTML to 777 recursively folders and files.
This does work but I feel that I've probably compromised my system, this is a website that is accessible to the whole world. Another point is that even though the conf file has anonymous connections turned off anon ftp connections can still be made to a Pub folder.
Am I right in thinking that the vsftpd conf file is in /var/vsftpd/ and that I haven't been tinkering with a example file or something stupid like that?
Any suggestions appreciated.
