🧵1/2

Hing ein paar Tage in den Seilen und freue mich jetzt umso mehr über einen produktiven Tag.

Mein verrichtet nun zuverlässig seinen Dienst. Das Scannen auf eine SMB Freigabe im Netzwerk funktioniert bei mir gerade sehr unzuverlässig. Ich finde den Fehler im Moment nicht. Daher habe ich den Server auf einem meiner installiert und es damit versucht. Nach einigen Versuchen läuft das jetzt sehr stabil bei mir.

Hab den halben Tag gescannt. 👍

Right, so a tip with #vsftpd on #AlpineLinux :

If connections die with `500 OOPS: 500 OOPS: child died` and no other logs:

```
seccomp_sandbox=NO
```

github.com/jusito/docker-vsftp is what gave me that clue. Why this isn't the default if the default is broken, I do not know.

So, helping an uncle of mine set up a website for a photography side-business. We settled on Wordpress as a CMS, and we have it running on shared hosting.

No problems there. I have a copy of it running on my own infrastructure (just a simple AlpineLinux VM with Apache, PHP, MariaDB). No problems there either. I access it via SSH/SFTP.

The gallery plug-in has a sister plug-in for Adobe Lightroom.

Sounds great. Okay, let's get that working.

Ohh, Lightroom plug-in insists on #FTP. Hello, 1972 called!

Anyway, AlpineLinux thankfully does ship a FTP server, #vsftpd.

I learn trying to set up, vsftpd will not simultaneously run #IPv4 *and* #IPv6, it's either one or the other.

Ugh!

@animemer @thecatcollective @torproject not to mention all the protocols of all their applications and devices from #DVB over #TCP / #UDP ( #IPv & #IPv6 ) are #OpenSource.
- Even if they use shitty #MicrosoftExchange's #MAPI instead of #IMAP, the #Mailserver still uses #SMTP to sent out stuff.
- #HTTP (#Apache, #ngnix)
- #FTP (#vsftpd)
- #SSL (#OpenSSL & #Mozilla NSS)

- #SteamDeck runs #ArchLinux / #SteamOS
- #NintendoSwitch & #PS3-#PS5 & #PSvita run #FreeBSD.

I just figured out why I would get permission denied errors for my #vsftpd #ftp daemon. It was because I was trying to log in to the server using the "ftp" user, which was not working for whatever reason. Once I made a new user and reworked everything to log in with that user, it worked.

Dans #VSFTPD, quelqu'un(e) connaît une astuce pour autoriser l'accès en écriture uniquement aux utilisateurs locaux ? (Pas trouvé ça dans le site officiel).

Dommage si ça n'existe pas, ce serait bien pratique (usecase : j'ai un serveur et des terminaux portables/mobiles locaux, flemme d'aller au serveur toutes les 5 minutes)

@spaceman I just use #vsftpd - in which case it's important to check permissions and ownership on the user's home folder. vsftpd is really strict on that.
