Hello everybody,
I am trying to enable pam_mount for a FTP server. So, my home directory
is encrypted and shared by FTP should be mounted when I connect trough
ftp. However, it doesn't work very well, even if pam_mount seems to run
correctly. Here is what I got in syslog:
Apr 27 10:53:04 pc-francois vsftpd: pam_unix(ftp:session): session
opened for user francois by (uid=0)
Apr 27 10:53:04 pc-francois vsftpd: pam_mount(mount.c:182) realpath of
volume "/home/francois" is "/home/francois"
Apr 27 10:53:05 pc-francois ReiserFS: dm-7: found reiserfs format "3.6"
with standard journal
Apr 27 10:53:05 pc-francois ReiserFS: dm-7: using ordered data mode
Apr 27 10:53:06 pc-francois ReiserFS: dm-7: journal params: device dm-7,
size 8192, journal first block 18, max trans len 1024, max batch 900,
max commit age 30, max trans age 30
Apr 27 10:53:06 pc-francois ReiserFS: dm-7: checking transaction log (dm-7)
Apr 27 10:53:06 pc-francois ReiserFS: dm-7: Using r5 hash to sort names
Apr 27 10:53:06 pc-francois vsftpd: pam_unix(ftp:session): session
closed for user francois
So, pam_mount has worked and my home directory is mounted, but
immediately after that, the FTP connexion is immediately closed. I have
tried vsftpd, proftpd and pure-ftpd and it's always the same. It only
works if my session is already opened on the FTP server. Then my home
directory doesn't need to be mounted and I can connect via FTP. I also
noticed that if I don't use LUKS for encryption but rather a SSL key
(with a key generated with the command
dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1c count=32 | openssl enc -aes-256-ecb >
/root/home_bob.key), then it works correctly whether my home directory
is mounted or not when I open the FTP connection.
Does anybody know what's happening ?
Thanks for your help,
François Valenduc
