Installing Pure-Ftpd

I’ve installed and updated Open Suse 12.2 and I went to YAST, installed Pure-FTPD and I can’t find it anywhere. According to this:

openSUSE 12.2: Chapter 21. Setting up an FTP server with YaST

"

  •  Open YaST Control Center and choose Network     Services+FTP Server or run     the **yast2 ftp-server**
    

command as root. "
But when I got to the Control Center I don’t see anything that says FTP server under Network Services. Am I missing something in the install? I do see e-mail server setup under Network Services but nothing about FTP.

Thanks,

Brian

I think you will find it in YaST > System > Systemservices (runlevel). You can start it from there.

Very Easy.

BTW, I run it from xinetd. Also possible.

Have you installed “yast2-ftp-server”?


PeeGee

MSI m/b 870-C45, AMD Athlon II X3 445, 4GB, openSUSE 12.2/12.1 x86_64
dual boot + XP Home in VBox
Asus m/b M2NPV-VM, AMD 64X2 3800+, 2GB, openSUSE 11.3 x86_64/XP Home
dual boot
Asus eeePC 4G (701), Celeron M353, 2GB, openSUSE 11.3 on SSD

Thanks that was it. I was looking in the wrong place. :slight_smile:

Is there a GUI for managing users/folders on the FTP server now that I’ve got it running, or is it all command line?

Did you install the yast2 ftp-server package?

Yes the Yast2 ftp server package is installed.
