Install pure-ftpd with large file on Ubuntu

Posted February 21st, 2006 by sugree

Pure-FTPd might not be the best FTP server but it is my most favorite one since yesterday. Its advantages are as belows.

  • Easy
  • Simple
  • Fast
  • Secure

It is enough for me right now. In addition, it is available on most distributions including Ubuntu. Unfortunately, it seems Pure-FTPd is too secure in term of compile-time options. The binary package of Pure-FTPd on Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy doesn’t support large file operation. As a result, I can’t see or transfer files larger than 2 GB. Oh, my god! Then I managed to rebuild the package again locally to support large file. Below are my instructions. Note that I am just a newbie for Ubuntu, Debian-style package management. This is a good practice for me.

  1. Become non-root user
    cd ~
mkdir pure-ftpd
cd pure-ftpd
  2. Obtain sources
    apt-get source pure-ftpd
  3. Install devscripts
    apt-get install devscripts
  4. Install all build dependencies
    apt-get build-dep pure-ftpd
  5. Modify build rules in pure-ftpd-1.0.19/debian/rules using below patch
    --- pure-ftpd-1.0.19/debian/rules.orig  2006-02-21 13:53:49.000000000 +0700
+++ pure-ftpd-1.0.19/debian/rules       2006-02-20 20:50:14.000000000 +0700
@@ -9,7 +9,7 @@
 export DH_COMPAT=3
 
 cfgflags=--prefix=/usr --mandir=’$${prefix}’/share/man --sysconfdir=/etc/pure-ftpd CFLAGS=-DMAX_USER_LENGTH=128U
-optflags=--with-everything --with-pam --with-privsep --with-tls
+optflags=--with-everything --with-pam --with-privsep --with-tls --with-largefile
 bin=pure-pw pure-statsdecode pure-pwconvert
 sbin=pure-authd pure-ftpwho pure-uploadscript pure-quotacheck pure-ftpd pure-mrtginfo
  6. Build
    debuild -us -uc

Now you can install the result packages as usual using dpkg command as follow.

cd ..
dpkg -i pure-ftpd_1.0.19-4_i386.deb pure-ftpd-common_1.0.19-4_all.deb

Now you are ready to go! It supports large file operation now.
