Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has had this issue and knows of a way to
resolve it.
I have vsftpd installed, the latest version available from redhat. The
server(s) that are having this problemn are both version 3 and version 4
AS.
I made a configuration change to dis-allow anonymous ftp access to the
vsftpd.conf file. I then recycled vsftpd with service vsftpd restart all
looked well, meaning ok's all around.
Now I cannot ftp to these servers as accounts that I know have access
and telnets are showing the ftp port closed. If I do a service vsftpd
status I get "vsftpd dead but subsys locked". No other ftp services are
running on these servers.
Any thoughs or clues as to how to resolve?
NO process is showing with ps -ef and netstat is showing the port
closed.
I've never enocuntered that particualr problem but the follwing might
help you narrow it down.
1. Make sure you are not trying to start vsftpd from xinetd.
2. Make sure "listen=YES" is set in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
3. Check if there is a lock file /var/lock/subsys/vsftpd. If there is
and YOU ARE SURE vsftpd is not running, delete it and try to restart vsftpd.
4. Check /var/log/vsftpd.log for error reports.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew
