Centos – pure-ftpd on CentOs

centoscentos6ftp

I'm trying to install pureftpd on CentOS6, but when I run the yum command:

yum install pure-ftpd

I always get package not found

Is there a way I can install `pure-ftpd' in Cent?

Thanks

You need to enable the epel repository before you can install it

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm

Then your yum command will work.

Ubuntu – Authentication failed of pure-ftpd

I've just had a similar problem. I've added user using pure-pw useradd and get 530 Login authentication failed.

The solution was a symlink added to /etc/pure-ftpd/auth directory pointing to /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/PureDB (there is a path to file that keeps ftp users) that shows in alphabetical order before other files in auth, e.g.

cd /etc/pure-ftpd/auth/
ln -s ../conf/PureDB 50PureDB

Then, ls within the same directory returns:

50PureDB -> ../conf/PureDB
65unix -> ../conf/UnixAuthentication
70pam -> ../conf/PAMAuthentication

Ftp – pure-ftpd not listening on specified port

For my case I had to explicit remove and install again pure-ftpd via apt:

systemctl stop  pure-ftpd
apt remove      pure-ftpd
apt install     pure-ftpd
systemctl start pure-ftpd

Or if you need to use pure-ftpd-mysql instead:

systemctl stop  pure-ftpd-mysql
apt remove      pure-ftpd-mysql
apt install     pure-ftpd-mysql
systemctl start pure-ftpd-mysql
