Hi,
I wanted to enable anonymous FTP on vfiler which is a part of windows 2003 active directory domain. This volume which I have enabled is a snapmirror volume and its acting as a read only cifs share. I followed the steps below but it does not work
1) Enable the FTP on Vfiler.
2) Enable the anonymous access.
3) Enabled the ftpd.anonymous.home_dir to the CIFS path
4) I have edited the usermap.cfg to map the NT user to unix user FTP ( xxx\kumaresan => ftp)
5) Now when i logging I get following error messages ( Response: 530 Login incorrect - User has no home directory)
6) Every other options in FTP is set to its default Value
I enabled the CIFS tracing enabled on the filer and I could see the maping works

If I create a user with exact same name as like in windows 2003 and with same pasword like domain credentials and edit the /etc/cifshomedir.cfg with the path of cifs share directory I am able to login fine . The problem is that we have many user who would be loggin to this directory to copy files from it .
If I have a controller which is not part of domain and enable the anonymous FTP with same cifs share path it works fine and I am able to browse the files . Since the NTLM auth mode is enabled the Local user doesnot work.
Not sure what I am doing wrong here . Any help on this would be appriciated
Thanks & Regards
Kumaresan
