Hello All,
Is it possible to have multiple anonymous user account in hp-ux 11i?
We have already one anonymous account created below is the password entry of the same.
ftp:*:500:500:Anonymous FTP account,,,:/home/ftp:/usr/bin/false
We want to create another one as below:
user name: testftp
user ID: 501
home: /home/testftp
Is that possible?
Many thanks in advance.
Kind Regards
Manoj

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
Why would you want to do this? Once you have configured anonymous ftp more than one user can connect.
The configuration you list in your question is a regular, not an nonymous ftp account.

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
Thanks for the response
Sorry for the incomplete question.
I meant two anonymous user accounts, User configuration that we are looking at is given below:
user - 1
ftp:*:500:500:Anonymous FTP account,,,:/home/ftp:/usr/bin/false
user - 2
testftp:*:501:500:Anonymous FTP account,,,:/home/testftp:/usr/bin/false
Kind Regards
Manoj

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
Hello Steven,
Please find below error message, when I tried to do ftp login with testftp user account after adding above mentioned in /etc/passwd file.
Name (ServerA:): testftp
530 User testftp access denied...
Login failed.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp>
Is this problem because hp-ux 11i (ftpd) does not support two anonymous user accounts?
Kind Regards
Manoj

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
Why? Is there some actual problem which you
are trying to solve?
It is possible to create multiple guest
accounts ("man ftpd", look for "guest"), but
these use actual passwords. So far as I
know, there can be only one true "anonymous"
account.
A different FTP server program might offer
more options.

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
Thanks all for your response.
There is no problem as such in our system.
We have a common user management tool called 'keon' (BMC product) used in our systems to manage users on two set of hp-ux servers.
Each set of hp-ux servers are used for two different applications. However the anonymous ftp user account (ftp) configured in keon tool is common for both set of servers.
We are looking for options to have separate anonymous account for each set of hp-ux servers.
Kind Regards
Manoj

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
I know nothing about it, including how (or
why) it uses FTP, which makes it hard to
suggest anything more.

Re: Multiple anonymous ftp user account
only info I can locate for a package called Keon references RSA Keon & certificate managment....
"We are looking for options to have separate anonymous account for each set of hp-ux servers."
there's only one...
You're going to have to provide information on what it is you want to solve, as opposed to how you want to solve it....I doubt that anonymous ftp is the answer....something like using regular ftp with a .netrc file might work, but since I know zero about the product you're referring to, it just as easily might not.
