I've got a server that we use to do speed testing of our upstreams (and customers links) using FTP. This is a fresh F10 install and I'm getting what seems to be a very common selinux ftp error (226 Failed to open directory). I've googled up a couple of forum posts on how to fix it, but most say just to disable selinux. That I'd not like to do. However, one of the options says to do this: setsebool -P ftpd_disable_trans 1 But I get an error: [root@noc5 speedtest]# setsebool -P ftpd_disable_trans 1 libsemanage.dbase_llist_set: record not found in the database libsemanage.dbase_llist_set: could not set record value Could not change boolean ftpd_disable_trans Could not change policy booleans I have seen the GUI method of doing this, but since I don't run X on this server that's not much help. What's the correct method of setting selinux up for this?
I don't believe that's a legit SELinux boolean for F10. A default SELinux config on F10 shows: [root@prophead ~]# getsebool -a | grep ftp allow_ftpd_anon_write --> off allow_ftpd_full_access --> off allow_ftpd_use_cifs --> off allow_ftpd_use_nfs --> off ftp_home_dir --> off httpd_enable_ftp_server --> off tftp_anon_write --> off as the only legit booleans having to do with ftp. A check of the SELinux logs would be far more useful, but my guess is that SELinux is blocking access to home directories. In that case, try [root@prophead ~]# setsebool -P ftp_home_dir 1 wait a minute or so after issuing that command before you try an FTP login and transfer again...some stuff needs relabeling after that command and it takes a bit of time to do that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer ricks@xxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - If one is what one eats, then I am fast, cheap and greasy! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
