Subject: [HP3000-L] A problem configuring the JINETD for FTP (loopback
mode)
First, a Happy new year to you all !.
I've been experimenting with setting up the FTP service inside JINETD.
I've got it up and running OK, but I'm having problems applying the
security I think necessary for our site.
I've had zero success in using the VESOFT "extension" to FTP - according
to the article on the VESOFT website, you can use their software to
enable security/3000 login validation. (I note other subscribers to
this list have had this problem. To quote from the HP3000-L: "Note
that I don't think this method will work with MPE/IX
6.0. FTP doesn't create a session under 6.0 and can't even be trapped by
VESOFT's Security/3000. This has created a big security hole" ).
Also, I've had problems when trying to configure INETDSEC.NET.SYS - I
want to ensure that the FTP server on each HP3K will only accept
connections from the other HP3Ks (and itself) in our site, but a problem
occurs when testing FTP in loopback mode.
Let me explain (with made up IP numbers)
We have two HPs one ith IP address of 123.456.789.0 and the other with
IP of 987.654.321.0
I have added the following line to INETDSEC.NET.SYS on both HPs
Allow 123.456.789.0 987.654.321.0
With this line in place each HP can connect to the other HP via FTP, but
is refused a connection (Ftp error 9) when I try a loop back test.
If I remove the "allow" line in the INETDSEC file, then the loopback
test is successful - i.e. I can successfully connect from any HP to any
HP - but it also opens up the HP to any remote client - which isn't what
I want !
Any suggestions ?
