Re: ftpd not chroot'ing
On Fri, Dec 12, 2008 at 2:58 AM, Gunther Mayer gunther.ma...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi guys, I'm trying to set up a really simple, single account write only ftp service. So I put ftpd_enable=YES ftpd_flags=-o -d in my rc.conf and started the ftp server. Now I have a special password enabled user account called camera (none of the other accounts have passwords, all logins are either remote ssh with keys or local terminal access with root) with login shell /bin/sh. So far so good. All I want to do now is now use the chroot facility of ftpd so that when user camera logs in ftpd will chroot the session to its home directory (/home/camera). man ftpd and man ftpchroot tells me to put something like camera yes in /etc/ftpchroot. But once I do that I always get: $ ftp myserver.mydomain.com Connected to myserver.mydomain.com 220 myserver FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready. Name (mypc:test): camera 331 Password required for camera. Password: 550 Can't change root. Login failed. ftp quit 221 Goodbye. If I disable that line in /etc/ftpchroot by commenting it out I can log in perfectly fine though. Even debug log messages (-d) don't tell me anything more than can't change root :-( The alternative as stated by man ftpd - putting a :ftp-chroot=true: in /etc/login.conf and doing a cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf seems to make no difference as no chroot is in effect (I can still cd .. and get to /home).

It's top shows wrong load percent?
Hello, Recently we got some trouble on some FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE servers (GENERIC kernel). Some python scripts are working on these servers and after a day or two we get 0% idle in the CPU states. After sometime, the operating system will unable to do even simple task like resolving DNS name and the zabbix process can not send outbound packets to the remote monitoring server. Maybe the top is showing wrong load percent? vmstat -i shows that some kind of irq0: clk has a maximum value of 1000. Does this matter? Please advice how to debug this overload problem.

I am not aware of any ZFS results on such tasks, may be you will be the
one who share them ;) However RaiserFS whould be the best choise on such
spesific case. It's not available on FreeBSD currently.
I don't think UFS can handle a huge amount of small files effectively.
Of course gjournal could be an option for fsck problems, but how do you
plan to backup or sync this storage?
I'm aware of the fsck/backup problems. In our case there's no need for
backup so i went with ufs2. The current configuration is 4x250Gb disks
with bloc/frag ratio 4k/512b. We're generating files with the average
size of 6k ('cause the compress procedure does not work as well as we
estimated).
After a week I think we could collect some statistics in production.
Anyway, in this case a 8k/1k would be more effective for us. Hope that
I can test this in the next server.
