wrote in with instructions. Thank you. The following steps will create an ftpd
which contains a built in ls. Note that these instructions are for
FreeBSD 3.1 through FreeBSD 3.4. For FreeBSD 4.0, these steps are not required as
this ftpd has the ls command built in.
Note that you will need /usr/src/bin to exist before you do these
steps. To install the source code, do this as root:
# /stand/sysinstall
Configure
Distributions
src
bin
Once you have /usr/src/bin, you can do this:
# cd /usr/src/libexec/ftpd
# make clean
# make -DFTPD_INTERNAL_LS
# make install
You now have an ftpd that does not require access to /bin/ls.
With this in place, you can set up our webserver so that each of your users logs
into a chrooted enviornment that contains ONLY their files. And you don't have to have a
zillion hard links to /bin/ls and a bin dir in each users home
directory. |
