I put the bsd 4 lite source for ftp and ls on :
ftp://triple.stack.nl/unix/chrootftp/FTPD.tar.gz
ftp://triple.stack.nl/unix/chrootftp/LS.tar.gz
The only difference is the static compile directives in the makefile.
Create an environment as follows :
inetd attached to 1 ip address
directories : ./bin ./etc and ./home
Put the statically compiled ls in ./bin
chmod -R 111 ./bin
Put the several default files in ./etc ( passwd master.passwd shells services
ftpd group {pwd_mkdb -d master.passwd generates the file pwd.db } )
NOTE that the password files should be independent of the real password files.
chown the home directory to the wanted users.
Start up the ftpd as a chrooted environment, e.g. :
INETD_INTERFACE=127.0.0.1 chroot /chroot /etc/inetd /etc/inetd.conf
Hope this short description works.
Best regards, Rob Kouwenberg
