Setting an FTP server

13 February 2021 - 23:37

Good evening, guys, I'm trying to set up a regular FTP server.
I've downloaded vsftpd, enabled it to run as a standalone service, but, when I launch it from the command line, I get this error:

root@satty:~# vsftpd 
500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv4 socket

So, it looks like there's another instance of the process being executed.
I launch

root@satty:~# ps | grep vsftpd
 2117 root      2656 S    grep vsftpd

then

root@satty:~# kill 2656
-bash: kill: (2656) - No such process

Well, I'm a little bit confused, what is happening???
 


OpenPLi 8.0 and remote ssh issue

9 February 2021 - 17:50

I'm trying to familiarize with OpenPLi after using openATV for many years.
One of the most important things for me is to be able to login to the box using SSH both locally and remotely.
In order to do this I've uninstalled Dropbear, installed Openssh and... well, I can connect locally to the decoder using the root account without any issue, but if I try to connect outside my LAN/WLAN the connection times out.
Of course, the relative port on my router has already been forwarded...
Any ideas???


OpenPLi 8.0 and bash profile

9 February 2021 - 12:31

Good morning everyone and thanks for accepting me in the forum.
I've just installed OpenPLi 8.0 on my Zgemma H7S and, as I use many bash scripts for different reasons during the day, I'd like to take advantage of aliases, just to make my work a little bit easier.
I've copied the same bash_profile I've been using for years on openATV, but, when I launch one of the aliases, I receive the following message:
 

-sh: alias_name: command not found

I suspect it's something related to environment variables and path, so, well... is there a way to fix it???
Thank you very much...
