Have you ever wondered how to give access to the files which are stored under /home/username/public_ftp of a Cpanel account anonymously?
Yes, It’s possible. First you need to get a dedicated account assigned for the domain and then, goto /etc/pure-ftpd folder. Here you find a directory named with the different IPs which are found on the server. This folder normally contains the pub folder which is made available for anonymous users for writing.We need to remove this directory and create a soft-link the same to to /home/username/public_html.
ln -s /home/username/public_ftp /etc/pureftpd/<ip_of_domain>
Now you will be able to access the files found under public_ftp via anonymously with ease.
Kool !!!
Awesome method to access to the files anonymously,
I can update this information in my notes …
Thx for this one.
But i have Problems with multiple Domains on the same IP.
Is it possible to use anonymous access, with more domains sharing one IP?
You will have to create a symbolic link for all accounts under the shared ip just like the one mentioned earlier. But I don’t think you wish to allow any one to check any domains files on your server.
