Bullet Proof Your FTP Server

Setting up your tutorial BulletProof FTP Server

I do not know where I found this tutorial, it was a bit '... You might even have been here ... .. So if it's yours, my hat is off again ....

After reading the excellent tutorial "Creating an FTP" that Norway posted ...

(I suggest you to read and follow his tutorial first, then follow up with it)

I thought maybe this tutorial can be quite useful for those interested in how to configure your FTP server bulletproof still do not know how ... Here's how to start ...

BulletProof FTP Server is 2.10. However, it should work fine on most following versions too.

I assume you have installed and cracked.

Base

First Start program.

2nd Click Configuration> Home> General in the dropdown menu.

3. Enter the server name in the "Server Name". Connection set the "maximum number of users" to any number. This is the limit on the number of users can be on your break at any time.

4. Click the "Options" tab of the same panel (side)

5. Look down in IP Options. Put this box "Refuse to multiple connections from same IP". This prevents a person other blocking FTP.

6. He also put a mark on the "Blocked Banned IP (instead of notifying the client.) VERY IMPORTANT: if someone decides to 'Hammer' (attempt to connect several times very quickly) your server / computer may crash if not enabled this option.

7th Click the "Advanced"

8. Let's look at the bottom of the '"area hammering"

9. Enable the "anti-ram" and "not respond to knocks 'Set the following 120 min of blocked IP addresses if 5 connections in 60 sec. You can define what you want, but that is a series Click' OK '

Adding Users

11th Configuration> User Accounts in the form box.

12. Right click on the "User Accounts" gap on the right, select "Add"

13th Enter your account name. (Ex: login name)

14. In the "Access Rights" right click, choose "Add."

15. Navigate to find the directory (folder) you want to share. In the right column you will see lots of check boxes. Put a check in the following: reading, writing, Append, Make, List and subdirectories +. Press "Select".

16th Enter a password for your new FTP account.

17. Click on "Other" in the left column. Make sure "Enable the account is selected. Take the" Maximum number of users' together with a non-zero number 1. Personal account and add that one of the group's behalf. Take "No, Max Fri IP is to combine the" set to 1

18. "Files" to "show the relative path" is a security problem. An FTP client will not be able to see the full path of the FTP server. You will see that the directory path. Hide flies well hidden.

Put a cross in two.

Advanced:

You do not need to take any of these things, but it helps to change the server, and to help maintain order in it. All of the following can be divided into small areas, which tells how one thing at a time.

Changing the Port

The default port is always 21, but you can change that. Many service providers routinely perform a scan of its users to find a ftp server, also when people search for pubs may scan your IP, thus finding your ftp server. If you decide to change many suggest that the port over 10,000.

First Configuration> Home> General

In the second 'Connection' Area is a parameter labeled "Listen port number"

Is it important third number you want. This will be your port number.

4. Click 'OK'

Making the "Upload Only 'or' Download Only 'ftp server.

This is for all the server, not just a user.

1. Settings> Home> Advanced

Second peak in the window, you have the following options: uploads and downloads, downloads only, and downloads only. Default upload and download will be checked. Change what you want.

3. Click "OK"
While you run on your server, usually you end up spending more time on your computer that you normally do. Do not be afraid to ban IP. Remember, your FTP you do as you want.

When you are online, you must also select the open server button next to the button on-line button is offline

Also learn how to use the current numbering IP address: 66.250.216.67

Or better yet, get an IP no-ip.com
