Configuring GridFTP
For basic configuration information, see Configuring GridFTP in the Installation Guide. This page discusses more options for configuring your GridFTP service.
ftpaccess
This follows the format of the Wu-FTP ftpaccess file.
If
GLOBUS_LOCATION is specified in the in.ftpd server's environment, or
if you pass it the the -G <globus_location> flag, it will use the
ftpaccess in $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc, otherwise it will use /etc/ftpaccess.
grid-mapfile
GridFTP uses the same authorization mechanism as described in the GRAM
mapfile, and uses the same /etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile.
Third Party Transfers
To enable third party transfers, edit the $GLOBUS_LOCATION/etc/ftpaccess file
to add the lines:
port-allow all 0.0.0.0/0
pasv-allow all 0.0.0.0/0
on both sides of the third-party connection.
