Since speed as its primary design goal, it has limited functionality and runs only as an anonymous FTP server. The remainder of this chapter focuses on vsftpd. The security model used by vsftpd has three primary aspects:.
Strong separation of privileged and non-privileged processes — Separate processes handle different tasks, and each of these processes run with the minimal privileges required for the task. Install it if it is not installed. Configuration of an anonymous-only download is relatively simple. Default configuration of vsftpd. But it also supports access from local users. All you need to do is disable the directive which allows locally configured users to login with their accounts.
When a user connects on the FTP server with anonymous username , actually that user connects on the server as a user named ftp. RHEL automatically create this account with following setting. With these setting users are not allowed to login as the user named ftp. So they need to use anonymous as user name. So if you want to change the default directory associated with anonymous logins, change the home directory associated with the local user named ftp.
This file will be downloaded by anonymous user. If you are running Linux without SELinux that's all setting which we need for this exercise.
