[pfSense Support] file server

2006-09-25 Thread Marc Boisis-Delavaud

Hello,
Since pure-ftpd has been removed from available packages, is there a 
solution to make a file server, is it possible to enable scp for example 
or something else ?

In an upcoming version the freenaspackage might be a solution but for now there 
is no fileserver package anymore. Freenas most likely won't be available before 
the next major version. There is no date on this yet.

Root access to everything...not sure that is what you asked for originally.

Can someone explain to me why some people are so keen on turning their 
firewall into a fileserver, of all things?


The fact that no FTP-server is available is actually a feature, not a 
bug, from my point of view, because it obviously leaves one way less for 
novice users to shoot themselves into the foot.


Do you need a firewall with a fileserver (try to speak that aloud and 
tell me it doesn't sound crazy) or do you just want a fileserver with a 
firewall?
In the later case, just install a generic FreeBSD+whatever 
fileserver-package you need and workout the handful of firewall-rules 
that it needs yourself - otherwise put a bridging pfSense in front of it 
and let each box handle the job it was designed for.




cheers,
Rainer

I would say it depends on the need of people or their environment. In a 
corporate environment this is a very bad thing to do, I agree. In a home 
environment it's different. However the package system allows to choose what 
fits your peronal security standard. The UPnP-package is another example for 
this. We won't implement things like that in base. However if someone wants to 
install a hello world-package at home and is aware of the risk go ahead. 
This has been discussed several times already and it always sums up in if it's 
ok for you do it, if not just don't do it. 

No offense here to either side, I understand both depending on the environment 
we are talking about ;-)

I'm sorry but scp and sftp does'nt work.

For other reply, I want fileserver because at home I have'nt a lot of  
hardware, so I want fileserver and firewall on the same hardware. And I 
know the risks !!

Thanks
