I have an ftp process which runs every 10 minutes between Unix and an NT box.
Normally it works, but when the script tries to get a file from NT that has a length of 0, the ftp process hangs (as if it is still waiting for the end of the file).
The FTP perl module does not have any function which checks if the file downloaded is of size 0. Is there any way in perl to check while getting the files through FTP?
Sometimes, there might be a problem with FTP and the downloaded file maybe of size 0. Hence, I would like to FTP that file... (1 Reply)

ftpd_selinux
ftpd_selinux(8) ftpd SELinux policy documentation ftpd_selinux(8)NAME
ftpd_selinux - Security-Enhanced Linux policy for ftp daemons.
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux provides security for ftp daemons via flexible mandatory access control.
FILE_CONTEXTS
SELinux requires files to have a file type. File types may be specified with semanage and are restored with restorecon. Policy governs the
access that daemons have to files.
Allow ftp servers to read the /var/ftp directory by adding the public_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the file type.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/ftp(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp
Allow ftp servers to read and write /var/tmp/incoming by adding the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file
type. This also requires the allow_ftpd_anon_write boolean to be set.
semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/ftp/incoming(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/ftp/incoming
BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is based on least privilege required and may also be customizable by setting a boolean with setsebool.
Allow ftp servers to read and write files with the public_content_rw_t file type.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_anon_write on
Allow ftp servers to read or write files in the user home directories.
setsebool -P ftp_home_dir on
Allow ftp servers to read or write all files on the system.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_full_access on
Allow ftp servers to use cifs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_cifs on
Allow ftp servers to use nfs for public file transfer services.
setsebool -P allow_ftpd_use_nfs on
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
