[Buildroot] [PATCH] vsftpd: install sample config file to /etc

[Stephan Hoffmann]

vsftpd comes with a sample config file that can serve as a starting
point for customization and enables a basic functionality. Since
this config refers to a directory "/usr/share/empty" this is also
created.

  I think the point of /usr/share/empty is that it's a directory that 
doesn't exist, so vsftpd will not allow any up/download unless you change 
the configuration file.

  I think it's a bad idea to default giving access to some random 
location - even if it is read-only non-anonymous access to an empty 
directory.

  But that's just my opinion.

  Arnout

Committed minus the /usr/share/empty creation, thanks.

Arnout, Peter,

I checked this. Obviously, vsftpd uses this directory to chroot there.
If it isn't present it refuses to work:

At least I admit that my commit message was misleading. So I'll send a
patch to add this;-)

That is not the case. Default configuration allows anonymous login, but
shows empty directory without write access.

Kind regards

  I still think it's better to make vsftpd fail to start than to give 
anonymous read-only access to some random empty directory. That way you 
at least notice that something is wrong.

  That said, it's no big deal. It's just a pity that if you provide a 
real vsftpd.conf in the post-build script, you'll still get this useless 
/usr/share/empty.

  Regards,
  Arnout
