Hi everyone, i've two questions about proFTPD daemon. First of all i'm running BO 5108R server,
I was looking for something to ban IPs that try to access ftp service using dictionary based attacks. I've found in /etc/proftpd.conf the configuration file of proFTPD daemon. I've read documentation about its structure and the mod_ban module. When i type "service proftpd status" on terminal, system tells me that there is no proFTPD daemon running on the system. If i try to connect via FTP on my server the connection works great. So, with FTP connection opened, i typed on terminal "lsof -i" to see running processes and their binded ports. I've found a process named "in.proftpd" binded to port 21 on my FTP connection. This behavior is right or not? The second question is about the usage of hosts.allow/deny files. Is it possible to exclude determinate IPs to access FTP service? I am already using these files to exclude everyone, except a few adresses, to avoid ssh access. Thanks
