| Simple ftp server for 2 mb configs? Is there a way to use the zywall as a simple ftp server for spreading configs to wyse thin clients stations in the network?
Maybe a usb stick ? I need anynomous access to the server?
Or is there another simple cheap ftpserver. I really prefer mounting in a 19 inch rack. But. Don,t need a big nasserver with gigabytes of space and options. |

| I can't use my USG20 as FTP server. But I have an old WLAN-modem-router as WLAN access point. On this device I can use an USB stick and access it with FTP - login/password disabled. |

You can't use zywall as ftp server.
However you can use any linux server or any router/nas/pogoplug/wdtv or any similar small device (typically $50) that can be hacked with root access. |

| So technically you could use the USG  Just need to hack it to get root access....

In a browser I can read the content of my shell script discppp.zysh.
»ftp://admin:Password@192.168.1.1/script/discppp.zysh
Under Windows IExplorer the registry must be changed:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_HTTP_USERNAME_PASSWORD_DISABLE]
"iexplore.exe"=dword:00000000
"explorer.exe"=dword:00000000

Well this is not anonymous ftp. If the device allows entering a URL or specify username/password for FTP, he could jam in the 2MB config file on ZyWALL. Otherwise it will not work.

Hey, I was wrong. You can actually easily use your USG as ftp server. It has FTP server built in (proftpd) for configuration purposes. But hey, why not use it for something else?
You can create wyse user and put it's config into conf firectory for examle wyse.conf. Let's try it
brano@droopy:~> echo "my wyse config" > wyse.conf
brano@droopy:~> ftp usg200

But hey, why not use it for something else? Brano, I knew about this. But your example is NOT anonymous ftp. It requires username/password. (i.e. user anonymous, password anything the ftp client wants to send?) Can you configure anonymous ftp access on ZyWALL?
If not, can you configrue Wyse bootloader to pull from the ftp server with a specific username/password.
If either condition cannot be satisfied, this will not work.
If ZyWALL USG can be configured for anonymous ftp (assuming read only), then anyone that has access to ZyWALL can read the configuration files of ZyWALL as well. You can restrict access via firewall rules but it is something that needs to be considered carefully. |

Yes, agreed, I thought that was abvious that's why I didn't mentioned this  ... USG was not designed to be generic FTP server.
My preferred solutuion for this would be to buy Pogoplug, hack it for root access and use as FTP server.

Kewl, where do you find this stuff LOL. If you have a hacked config file for FTP I might pick one up. Does it only have space for one hard drive (and if so up to what size)? DOes it have a usb port to add another drive? What kind of qwerky lan access does it provide (nothing propietary and limiting that one has to load on all computers on the lan I hope). Is it gigabit? |

Really nice to see how many people try to help ! Really thank you. I now bought a complete server 1u in rack with scsi harddisk for 79 euros, used ofcourse. I will install freenas software on it. Okey, a little overkill 1 gb but it will do the trick and i have my hadware still mounted in a rack.
The cheap nasservers for privat use are Not mountablein in a rack. So i thought why not use the usg 100 for it.
But the wysereally need anonyous ftp access. |
