Pure-FTPd with MySQL
This is how I setup my ftp server with Pure-FTPd and MySQL as backend for authentication and user profiles and sOLARiZ PureFTPd Manager as interface to MySQL.
Pure-FTPd Setup
Install Pure-FTPd the way you like it. As I use SuSE 9.3 I use the version bundled with the distribution and hence use the “SuSE Standard” for file locations.
Start out by editing the /etc/pure-ftpd/pure-ftpd.conf file to make use of MySQL as backend. Mine looks like this:
ChrootEveryone yes BrokenClientsCompatibility no MaxClientsNumber 10 Daemonize yes MaxClientsPerIP 3 VerboseLog no AllowDotFiles yes DisplayDotFiles yes AnonymousOnly no NoAnonymous yes SyslogFacility ftp DontResolve yes MaxIdleTime 15 MySQLConfigFile /etc/pure-ftpd/pureftpd-mysql.conf LimitRecursion 2000 8 AnonymousCanCreateDirs no MaxLoad 4 Umask 177:077 MinUID 100 AllowUserFXP no AllowAnonymousFXP no ProhibitDotFilesWrite no ProhibitDotFilesRead no AutoRename yes AnonymousCantUpload yes NoChmod yes CreateHomeDir yes MaxDiskUsage 99 NoRename yes CustomerProof yes
Lets create /etc/pure-ftpd/pureftpd-mysql.conf:
MYSQLServer localhost MYSQLPort 3306 MYSQLUser ftpd MYSQLPassword 123456 MYSQLDatabase System MYSQLCrypt md5 MYSQLGetPW SELECT Password FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L" AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MYSQLGetUID SELECT Uid FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L" AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MYSQLGetGID SELECT Gid FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MYSQLGetDir SELECT Dir FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MySQLGetBandwidthUL SELECT ULBandwidth FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MySQLGetBandwidthDL SELECT DLBandwidth FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MySQLGetQTASZ SELECT QuotaSize FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R") MySQLGetQTAFS SELECT QuotaFiles FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L"AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R")
MySQL
Install MySQL on a server or use a already installed one. Again I use the one following SuSE 9.3.
I use a thirdparty PHP interface to the MySQL database called sOLARiZ PureFTPd Manager, so I also have Apache2 with PHP and PHP-mysql installed. You can also download it here pureftp-mgr.tar
You can configure the MySQL database in many ways and make use of a lot of Pure-FTPd's features, but as I'm using PureFTPd Manager I'm bound to its design.
Create a database:
# mysqladmin -u root -p create System
Next make the following file called create.sql:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ftpd;
CREATE TABLE ftpd (
User varchar(16) NOT NULL default '',
status enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',
Password varchar(64) NOT NULL default '',
Uid varchar(11) NOT NULL default '-1',
Gid varchar(11) NOT NULL default '-1',
Dir varchar(128) NOT NULL default '',
ULBandwidth smallint(5) NOT NULL default '0',
DLBandwidth smallint(5) NOT NULL default '0',
comment tinytext NOT NULL,
ipaccess varchar(15) NOT NULL default '*',
QuotaSize smallint(5) NOT NULL default '0',
QuotaFiles int(11) NOT NULL default 0,
PRIMARY KEY (User),
UNIQUE KEY User (User)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
Use this file to create the our user table:
# mysql -u root -p System < create.sql
Use this file, create-user.sql, to create the ftpd user and its rights:
USE mysql;
INSERT INTO user (Host, User, Password) VALUES ('localhost','ftpd',password('123456'));
INSERT INTO db (Host, Db, User, Select_priv, Insert_priv, Update_priv, Delete_priv) VALUES ('localhost', 'System', 'ftpd', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y');
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE ON System.* TO ftpd@localhost;
Now run it:
# mysql -u root -p -h localhost < create-ftpd.sql
Apache2
Now copy the sOLARiZ PureFTPd Manager files into your documentroot somewhere. As we are dealing with usernames and passwords I like to use https. With SuSE 9.3 the tool gensslcert will make the certificate for you. If you aren't using SuSE, look at the manpages for openssl. To make use of this I have created /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/pureftpd.conf:
Listen 666
<VirtualHost _default_:666>
DocumentRoot "/srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd"
ServerName localhost:666
ServerAdmin you@example.com
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/pureftpd_error_log
TransferLog /var/log/apache2/pureftpd_access_log
SSLEngine on
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:!EXPORT56:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/server.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl.key/server.key
<Directory "/srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd">
SSLOptions +StdEnvVars
SSLRequireSSL
</Directory>
SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" \
nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown \
downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/postfixadmin_request_log \
"%t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SSL_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b"
<Directory /srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This creates an https webinterface listening on port 666/tcp. To enter this interface you browse to https://yourserver:666
I would like to be the only one accessing this interface and therfor we need some authentication. Create .htaccess in the documentroot /srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd/:
AuthUserFile /srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /dev/null AuthName "Pure-ftpd Admin" AuthType Basic <limit GET POST> require valid-user </limit>
Create the htpasswd file and create a admin user:
# htpasswd2 -c /srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd/.htpasswd admin
PureFTPd Manager
Create a user and group called “pureftpd”.
Extract the PureFTPd Manager files into “/srv/www/htdocs/pureftpd”.
To make use of md5 instead of crypt I changed “index.php” to:
