10.3.6 Shell Commands
The following shell commands will configure anonymous FTP service suitable for AlliedView NMS on most
Solaris installations. Due to variations in system administration from one system to another, this procedure can-
not be guaranteed to work on all Solaris systems.
You are advised to create and configure the ftp account interactively in case errors occur.
#
# You must be logged-in as root to configure anonymous FTP
#
useradd ftp
cd /etc
#The following is ONE line
sed -e 's/^\(ftp:x\):\([0-9]\{1,\}\).*$/\1:\2:\2:Anonymous FTP:\/opt\/
ftp:nosuchshell/' passwd > passwd~
#
sed -e 's/^ftp.*$/ftp:NP:6445::::::/' shadow > shadow~
#
# Verify the settings before making them permanent.
#
more passwd~
more shadow~
#
# Make the verified settings permanent
#
# CAUTION: ANY ERRORS HERE MAY BE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX.
#
chmod 660 /etc/passwd /etc/shadow
mv passwd~ passwd
mv shadow~ shadow
mv passwd~ passwd
chmod 440 /etc/passwd /etc/shadow
The rest of the shell commands, which also must be executed while logged-in as root, are listed in the file
bin/AT_configure_ftp.sh . Any system-specific errors from these commands are typically harmless. In fact,
on certain installations, some of the shared libraries are obsolete, so “file not found” errors will be expected. The
last four commands in the file are to be used with Solaris 9 and 10, so skip them to use on Solaris 8.
