.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is a proxy for the Internet File Transfer Protocol.
|
|
The proxy uses
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
and expects to have the FTP control connection as described in
|
|
.Xr services 5
|
|
redirected to it via a
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
.Em rdr
|
|
command.
|
|
An example of how to do that is further down in this document.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl A
|
|
Permit only anonymous FTP connections.
|
|
The proxy will allow connections to log in to other sites as the user
|
|
.Qq ftp
|
|
or
|
|
.Qq anonymous
|
|
only.
|
|
Any attempt to log in as another user will be blocked by the proxy.
|
|
.It Fl D Ar debuglevel
|
|
Specify a debug level, where the proxy emits verbose debug output
|
|
into
|
|
.Xr syslogd 8
|
|
at level
|
|
.Dv LOG_DEBUG .
|
|
Meaningful values of debuglevel are 0-3, where 0 is no debug output and
|
|
3 is lots of debug output, the default being 0.
|
|
.It Fl g Ar group
|
|
Specify the named group to drop group privileges to, after doing
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
lookups which require root.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses the default group of the user it drops privilege to.
|
|
.It Fl m Ar minport
|
|
Specify the lower end of the port range the proxy will use for all
|
|
data connections it establishes.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dv IPPORT_HIFIRSTAUTO
|
|
defined in
|
|
.Aq Pa netinet/in.h
|
|
as 49152.
|
|
.It Fl M Ar maxport
|
|
Specify the upper end of the port range the proxy will use for the
|
|
data connections it establishes.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dv IPPORT_HILASTAUTO
|
|
defined in
|
|
.Aq Pa netinet/in.h
|
|
as 65535.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Activate network address translation
|
|
.Pq NAT
|
|
mode.
|
|
In this mode, the proxy will not attempt to proxy passive mode
|
|
.Pq PASV or EPSV
|
|
data connections.
|
|
In order for this to work, the machine running the proxy will need to
|
|
be forwarding packets and doing network address translation to allow
|
|
the outbound passive connections from the client to reach the server.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr pf.conf 5
|
|
for more details on NAT.
|
|
The proxy only ignores passive mode data connections when using this flag;
|
|
it will still proxy PORT and EPRT mode data connections.
|
|
Without this flag,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
does not require any IP forwarding or NAT beyond the
|
|
.Em rdr
|
|
necessary to capture the FTP control connection.
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
Use reverse host
|
|
.Pq reverse DNS
|
|
lookups for logging and libwrap use.
|
|
By default,
|
|
the proxy does not look up hostnames for libwrap or logging purposes.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar timeout
|
|
Specifies a timeout, in seconds.
|
|
The proxy will exit and close open connections if it sees no data
|
|
for the duration of the timeout.
|
|
The default is 0, which means the proxy will not time out.
|
|
.It Fl u Ar user
|
|
Specify the named user to drop privilege to, after doing
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
lookups which require root privilege.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
drops privilege to the user
|
|
.Em proxy .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Running as root means that the source of data connections the proxy makes
|
|
for PORT and EPRT will be the RFC mandated port 20.
|
|
When running as a non-root user, the source of the data connections from
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will be chosen randomly from the range
|
|
.Ar minport
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar maxport
|
|
as described above.
|
|
.It Fl V
|
|
Be verbose.
|
|
With this option the proxy logs the control commands
|
|
sent by clients and the replies sent by the servers to
|
|
.Xr syslogd 8 .
|
|
.It Fl w
|
|
Use the tcp wrapper access control library
|
|
.Xr hosts_access 3 ,
|
|
allowing connections to be allowed or denied based on the tcp wrapper's
|
|
.Xr hosts.allow 5
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr hosts.deny 5
|
|
files.
|
|
The proxy does libwrap operations after determining the destination
|
|
of the captured control connection, so that tcp wrapper rules may
|
|
be written based on the destination as well as the source of FTP connections.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm ftp-proxy
|
|
is run from
|
|
.Xr inetd 8
|
|
and requires that FTP connections are redirected to it using a
|
|
.Em rdr
|
|
rule.
|
|
A typical way to do this would be to use a
|
|
.Xr pf.conf 5
|
|
rule such as
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 2n
|
|
int_if = xl0
|
|
rdr on $int_if proto tcp from any to any port 21 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8021
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Xr inetd 8
|
|
must then be configured to run
|
|
.Nm
|
|
on the port from above using
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 2n
|
|
ftp-proxy stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftp-proxy ftp-proxy
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr inetd.conf 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
accepts the redirected control connections and forwards them
|
|
to the server.
|
|
The proxy replaces the address and port number that the client
|
|
sends through the control connection to the server with its own
|
|
address and proxy port, where it listens for the data connection.
|
|
When the server opens the data connection back to this port, the
|
|
proxy forwards it to the client.
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr pf.conf 5
|
|
rules need to let pass connections to these proxy ports
|
|
(see options
|
|
.Fl u , m ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl M
|
|
above) in on the external interface.
|
|
The following example allows only ports 49152 to 65535 to pass in
|
|
statefully:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block in on $ext_if proto tcp all
|
|
pass in on $ext_if inet proto tcp from any to $ext_if \e
|
|
port > 49151 keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, rules can make use of the fact that by default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
runs as user
|
|
.Qq proxy
|
|
to allow the backchannel connections, as in the following example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block in on $ext_if proto tcp all
|
|
pass in on $ext_if inet proto tcp from any to $ext_if \e
|
|
user proxy keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These examples do not cover the connections from the proxy to the
|
|
foreign FTP server.
|
|
If one does not pass outgoing connections by default additional rules
|
|
are needed.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Extended Passive mode
|
|
.Pq EPSV
|
|
is not supported by the proxy and will not work unless the proxy is run
|
|
in network address translation mode.
|
|
When not in network address translation mode, the proxy returns an error
|
|
to the client, hopefully forcing the client to revert to passive mode
|
|
.Pq PASV
|
|
which is supported.
|
|
EPSV will work in network address translation mode, assuming a
|
|
.Xr pf.conf 5
|
|
setup which allows the EPSV connections through to their destinations.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
IPv6 is not yet supported.
