    ftp file creation perms (urgent)

    Are you using the Solaris ftpd? If so, try installing the wu-ftpd. This daemon is much richer in features and security. It will give you the option of setting umask for the FTP users. There is a great howto guide for Solaris at http://www.wildheart.org/wu-ftpd Yahoo Messenger: coily2

    Setting up FTP server

    To follow up on what pbouchie said, I would STRONGLY suggest using a different ftpd than the Solaris default. wu-ftpd is an excellent choice. After installing a more secure ftp daemon, you may want to consider setting up the users in a chroot environment. After I had one of my servers hacked...

    Is there an easy way upgrading from FireWall 1 (version 4.0) to (4.1)

    Well, I did this once, however it was on a Solaris platform and an upgrade from 3.0b to 4.0. I copied the /opt/CKPfw/conf directory over to the new firewall (this directory contains your objects, rules, services, and other stuff). I can't remember, but I think I also manually created the...

    Is there anyway to make backup automatically?

    # crontab -e<br><br>To schedule a nightly backup. Write a script to backup in Sybase and run a ufsdump of the OS.
