Since we mentioned 1985, let’s look at some other things that are as old, although perhaps not as dated: But if you just need to log into one share and you don’t need a lot of fancy features on top of your protocols that haven’t changed much since 1985 then this implementation will still work for ya’ without any extra work. Otherwise, I’d still recommend most people use a third party tool. Overall, this ftp implementation is meant for users who just need to access their web server where all the files live in a web root of some sort. Sudo serveradmin settings ftp:DocumentRoot = "/Shared Items/Krypted" Good stuff, so use serveradmin to manually set shares with spaces or other special characters in the names: If you have spaces in the name of a share that you configure from the Server app the thing will fail. Same thing, right? Let’s look at all the settings: Let’s look at the status of the service, first: Additionally, you can use the serveradmin command, where ftp is the name of the service. We already discussed sharing -l to see a list of the available shares. Open a terminal window on the server and let’s look at the few options you have to configure FTP from the command line. And of course, type get followed by the name of a file to transfer it locally: Or pwd to see what directory you are in (relative to the root of the ftp share). Here, type ls to see a list of the directories contents. Then, assuming your get the following, you’re in: To test, type ftp followed by the address of the site (and I like to put the username followed by before the hostname, as follows:įtp prompted, provide a password. I like to use the ftp command line interface built into OS X. Then, set the permissions as appropriate on the share and hit the ON button for the FTP service. Once open, use the Share: drop-down list to select a share that already exists (output of sharing -l basically) and click on one of the shares or Custom to create a new share for FTP. To setup FTP, first open the Server app and then click on the FTP service. This directory can be any share that has previously been configured in the File Sharing service or a website configured in the Websites service. Instead of sharing out each directory the new incantation of the FTP service allows administrators to share a single directory out. # list of users disallowed any ftp access.FTP went away in OS X Lion Server (kinda’) and now it’s back in OS X Mountain Lion Server (kinda’). UPD contents of /etc/ftpusers $ cat /etc/ftpusers What I'm doing wrong? Getting really tired of this. (admin is administrator account, ftpuser is special user account made to access ftp) I tried access to shared folder (by FTP):Ģ20 10.0.2.2 FTP server (tnftpd 20100324+GSSAPI) ready.ģ31 User ftpuser accepted, provide password.ģ31 User admin accepted, provide password. Settings in "Preferences.app" and "Server.app"Ĭhecked that users have access to FTP service I checked posix acl, which is "rwxrwxrwx", I checked sharing Gave access every user and group in system, and also enabled guestĪccess. Made special partition for FTP Access, call it "Reports" So shared I need to share a folder on Mac Mini Server by FTP. There is a LAN comprising several mac machines (iMac, Mac Pro, macbook etc.), Airport Express router and Mac Mini Server running OS X Server 10.8 (Mountain Lion Server).
