Hi Gentoo-users, |
2 |
|
3 |
I have strange problem: I want to collect vsftpd-logs |
4 |
by syslog-ng, so I added this single line at the end |
5 |
of /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf: |
6 |
|
7 |
syslog_enable=YES |
8 |
|
9 |
Then I restarted vsftpd, but now I can not connect to it! |
10 |
I do not get login/password prompt, all I see is: |
11 |
|
12 |
$ ftp 10.0.0.173 |
13 |
Connected to 10.0.0.173 (10.0.0.173). |
14 |
500 OOPS: priv_sock_get_cmd |
15 |
ftp> |
16 |
|
17 |
I removed that above mentioned line from vsftpd-config, |
18 |
restarted vsftpd, tried again. And everything works as |
19 |
expected. So the problem is caused by that single |
20 |
line. But why "syslog_enable" option does not work? |
21 |
|
22 |
Apart from that my vsftpd.conf is default as it comes |
23 |
with vsftpd-installation, nothing changed. The same is |
24 |
true for syslog-ng.conf. |
25 |
|
26 |
I noticed one more strange thing: whenever I restart |
27 |
vsftpd (/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart), I see messages |
28 |
on the screen but nothing is saved to /var/log/messages |
29 |
(or to any other log-file). When I restart any other |
30 |
service (i.e. sshd, sendmail, bind), corresponding |
31 |
message is recorded to /var/log/messages. Why is it |
32 |
not so in case of vsftpd? It seems to me vsftpd has |
33 |
problem accessing /dev/log... |
