Hello and sorry if this is obvious, but I was not able to make ftp to work properly.
-
I created a user with virtualmin with FTP access, the user is not an administrator, he will upload files to /public_html/
-
Testing the user with Filezilla gives me the error:
The data connection could not be established: EHOSTUNREACH - No route to host
Searching forum for EHOSTUNREACH gives only this topic with no viable solution: FTP not working after upgrade [SOLVED]
- Checked firewall rules and they are fine
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 21 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 20 -j ACCEPT
- Tested with:
telnet mydomain.com 21
Trying ServerIP…
Connected to mydomain.com.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
220 FTP Server ready.
quit
221 Goodbye.
Connection closed by foreign host.
- Tested with Konqueror I get connected and I see a blank page, then I uploaded a test.html and a test.php files and I got:
could not write the file Server said “”
-
Checked with Virtualmin filemanager and found in:
home/mydomain/homes/user/
test.php
test.html
both files with 0 bytes (empty) -
I changed permissions to 0775 for directory
home/mydomain/homes/user/
And same problem, it creates empty files. -
I need the user to have access to home/mydomain/public_html/ directory not home/mydomain/homes/user/
-

# See: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/by-name.html
# Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) Notes:
#
# In Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux, ProFTPD runs confined by SELinux
# in order to mitigate the effects of an attacker taking advantage of an
# unpatched vulnerability and getting control of the ftp server. By default,
# ProFTPD cannot read or write most files on a system nor connect to many
# external network services, but these restrictions can be relaxed by
# setting SELinux booleans as follows:
#
# setsebool -P allow_ftpd_anon_write=1
# This allows the ftp daemon to write to files and directories labelled
# with the public_content_rw_t context type; the daemon would only have
# read access to these files normally. Files to be made available by ftp
# but not writeable should be labelled public_content_t.
#
# setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access=1
# This allows the ftp daemon to read and write all files on the system.
#
# setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_cifs=1
# This allows the ftp daemon to read and write files on CIFS-mounted
# filesystems.
#
# setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_nfs=1
# This allows the ftp daemon to read and write files on NFS-mounted
# filesystems.
#
# setsebool -P ftp_home_dir=1
# This allows the ftp daemon to read and write files in users' home
# directories.
#
# setsebool -P ftpd_connect_all_unreserved=1
# This setting is only available from Fedora 16/RHEL-7 onwards, and is
# necessary for active-mode ftp transfers to work reliably with non-Linux
# clients (see http://bugzilla.redhat.com/782177), which may choose to
# use port numbers outside the "ephemeral port" range of 32768-61000.
#
# setsebool -P ftpd_connect_db=1
# This setting allows the ftp daemon to connect to commonly-used database
# ports over the network, which is necessary if you are using a database
# back-end for user authentication, etc.
#
# setsebool -P ftpd_is_daemon=1
# This setting is available only in Fedora releases 4 to 6 and Red Hat
# Enterprise Linux 5. It should be set if ProFTPD is running in standalone
# mode, and unset if running in inetd mode.
#
# setsebool -P ftpd_disable_trans=1
# This setting is available only in Fedora releases 4 to 6 and Red Hat
# Enterprise Linux 5, and when set it removes the SELinux confinement of the
# ftp daemon. Needless to say, its use is not recommended.
#
# All of these booleans are unset by default.
#
# See also the "ftpd_selinux" manpage.
#
# Note that the "-P" option to setsebool makes the setting permanent, i.e.
# it will still be in effect after a reboot; without the "-P" option, the
# effect only lasts until the next reboot.
#
# Restrictions imposed by SELinux are on top of those imposed by ordinary
# file ownership and access permissions; in normal operation, the ftp daemon
# will not be able to read and/or write a file unless *all* of the ownership,
# permission and SELinux restrictions allow it.
