Tofix to enable anonymous FTP for any client on a shared server using pure-ftpd.

1) The client should have a dedicated IP for his domain to get the anonymous FTP to work properly.

2) /etc/sysconfig/pure-ftpd needs to be edited to allow anonymous uploads. The ftp server needs to be restarted after this change. Also the public_ftp/incoming directory needs a permissions/owner change, then you will be able to use anonymous ftp with pure-ftpd np. This can be done by :

pico /etc/sysconfig/pure-ftpd

comment –anonymouscantupload

# disallow uploads for anonymous users
# –anonymouscantupload

Save and restart

/etc/rc.d/init.d/pure-ftpd restart
