Hi!

I've been trying to get FTP file access going by means of anonymous FTP login, but something's a miss... It's ONTAP 7.2.5.1 simulator - and I've followed all the steps described in http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/ontap/rel7261_vs/html/ontap/filesag/index.html , under "File access using FTP" section. Here it is, in short:

     options ftpd.enable on

     options ftpd.auth_style ntfs

I've created a volume called "vol1", with a qtree named "anonymous" and entered the path into the /etc/cifs_homedir.cfg file: /vol/vol1/anonymous

     cifs load homedir -f

     options ftpd.anonymous.enable on

     options ftpd.anonymous.name anonymous

     options ftpd.anonymous.home_dir /vol/vol1/anonymous

In the end, I've tried creating an FTP connection from my laptop to it but I got the following error report:

     C:\Documents and Settings\Laptop>ftp 192.168.0.130
     Connected to 192.168.0.130.
     220 simulator FTP server (NetApp Release 7.2.5.1: Wed Jun 25 07:59:11 PDT 2008)
     ready
     User (192.168.0.130:(none)): anonymous
     331 Guest login ok, send ident as password.
     Password:
     530 Login incorrect - User has no home directory.
     Login failed.
     ftp>

For password I just hit Enter, later on I tried other ideas (guest, anonymous, etc) but none worked... I'd say that User has no home directory is indicative enough to suggest there's something wrong with mapping anonymous user with his homedirectory /vol/vol1/anonymous? Any thoughts?

Thanx!
