Juju charm vsftpd
author: Nathan Williams <nathan@nathanewilliams.com>
1. Setup your parameters in vsftpd.yaml
> vi vsftpd.yaml
a list of settable parameters is available usering
> juju get vsftpd
or listing config.yaml
2. Deploying vsftpd
> juju bootstrap
> juju deploy --config vsftpd.yaml vsftpd
> juju expose vsftpd
3. To find out the public address of vsftpd, browse
the output of the 'juju status' command.
By default, the standard ftp port, 21, is turned on,
this is changeable through the config value: "port".
When a relation is joined, a user for each juju unit
is created and has relation parameters generated for
ftp_user, and ftp_passwd. The active port and server
are also available in the relation details.
The "delete_departed" config option controls whether
to remove files belonging to users who have left the
relation to the ftp-server.
If you decide to enable anonymous access, be aware
that the anonymous user, while not able to upload,
will be able to browse and download files in any
users home directory.
Note that due to vsftpd security settings, it is not
possible for users to upload files to their chroot'd
home directory. Rather, each user has a folder "ftp"
created within their chroot'd home folder which they
can up/download to.
