Vsftpd + MySQL creates virtual users under Debian Linux

The following articles mainly describe the specific practices of vsftpd + MySQL virtual users in Debian Linux. I saw information about vsftpd + MySQL virtual users in Debian Linux on the relevant website two days ago, I think it's good. I just want to share it with you.

Today, I had nothing to do with ftp. The reason is very simple: to put the good stuff that can be seen elsewhere on my machine, hey! It is not easy to select an ftp server in linux. After a bit of thinking, I chose vsftpd, the reason is that it is known as the safest ftp server in linux, and there are still many large websites that use it as a server (this makes it easy to use :)).

In order to prevent others from peeking at my password and logging on to my machine, I hate the fact that there are so many users in the system (like displaying my own hands ), therefore, I decided to use virtual users because MySQL (the best combination with PHP) is installed in the machine ), so I want to put vsftpd + MySQL virtual user data in MySQL (the best combination with PHP). Well, let's get started here. Next, let's get started!

Step 1:

Install vsftpd

Apt-get install vsftpd (Debian is awesome !)

The system automatically generates a configuration file and an ftp user for anonymous users. vsftpd uses pam to verify virtual users because vsftpd + MySQL virtual user information is stored in the database, therefore, we also need a local user who can read the database content and set its local directory:

 
 

  
  
#mkdir /var/ftp 
  
  
#useradd -d ftpguest /var/ftp 
  
  
#chown ftpguest.nogroup /var/ftp 
 
 

Step 2: Install MySQL (the best combination with PHP)

Apt-get install MySQL (the best combination with PHP)-server MySQL (the best combination with PHP)-clent

Create a database and add users

 
 

  
  
# MySQL (the best combination with PHP)-p MySQL (the best combination with PHP)> create ftpu;
  
  
MySQL (best combination with PHP)> use ftpu;
  
  
MySQL (best combination with PHP)> create table user (name char (20) binary, passwd char (20) binary );
  
  
MySQL (best combination with PHP)> insert into user (name, passwd) values ('test1', password ('20140901 '));
  
  
MySQL (best combination with PHP)> insert into user (name, passwd) values ('test2', password ('20140901 '));
  
  
MySQL (best combination with PHP)> quit
  
  
Enable ftpguest to access ftpu and table user:
  
  
# MySQL (the best combination with PHP)-u root MySQL (the best combination with PHP)
-P MySQL (the best combination with PHP)> grant select on ftpu. user to ftpguest @ localhost identified by '123 ';
 
 

MySQL (best combination with PHP)> quit

Step 3: Because vsftpd is verified by PAM

Therefore, we also need a MySQL (the best combination with PHP) package verified by PAM. In Debian, it is called libpam-MySQL (the best combination with PHP)

Apt-get install libpam-MySQL (best combination with PHP)

Enable pam verification For vsftpd:

 
 

  
  
#vi /etc/pam.d/vsftpd 
 
 

Comment out the previous content and add the following content:

Auth required pam_MySQL (best combination with PHP). so user = ftpguest passwd = 123456 host = localhost db = ftpu table = user usercolumn = name passwdcolumn = passwd crypt = 2

Account required pam_MySQL (best combination with PHP). so user = ftpguest passwd = 123456 host = localhost db = ftpu table = user usercolumn = name passwdcolumn = passwd crypt = 2

The above content should be clear. The crypt = 2 indicates something that has passed the password () secret of MySQL (the best combination with PHP!

Step 4: Modify the vsftpd. conf file

 
 

  
  
#vi /etc/vsftpd.conf 
 
 

Join:

 
 

  
  
Uest_enable = yes
  
  
Guest_username = ftpguest
  
  
# Indicates that ftpguest is a virtual user of vsftp.
  
  
Virtual_use_local_privs = yes
  
  
 
 
 

Vsftpd + MySQL virtual users have the same permissions as local users

 
 

  
  
write_enable=yes 
  
  
anon_upload_enable=yes 
  
  
anon_other_write_enable=yes 
 
 

Allows virtual users to upload, modify, and delete files.

 
 

  
  
chroot_local_user=yes 
 
 

Virtual users can only access their own directories.

 
 

  
  
anonymous_enable=no 
  
  
local_enable=yes 
 
 

Disable Anonymous user access and enable local user access

Step 5:

The fourth step has already been completed, but I thought about it later. No, if every upload is different, how can I manage the directory in a mess, can I create a directory for each vsftpd + MySQL virtual user? For example, place the files uploaded by music users in ~ /Music, put the File Uploaded By the doc user in ~ /What about doc?

Yes! Of course. How can I do this?

First, add two vsftpd + MySQL virtual users (music and doc) to the database:

 
 

  
  
#mkdir /etc/vsftpd_user_conf 
  
  
#cd /etc/vsftpd_user_conf 
  
  
#touch music 
  
  
#echo "local_root=/home/username/music" > music 
  
  
#touch doc 
  
  
#echo "local_root=/home/username/doc" > doc 
  
  
#mkdir /home/username/music 
  
  
#chown ftpguest.nogroup /home/username/music 
  
  
#chmod 600 /home/username/music 
  
  
#chown ftpguest.nogroup /home/username/doc 
  
  
#chmod 600 /home/username/doc 
 
 

Add user_config_dir =/etc/vsftpd_user_conf to vsftpd. conf?
