Lab 8-2: Manage a vsftpd Service
Write a playbook that uses at least two plays to install a vsftpd service, configure the vsftpd service using templates, and configure permissions as well as SELinux. Apply the following requirements:
Install, start, and enable the vsftpd service. Also open a port in the firewall to make it accessible.- Use the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file to generate a template. In this template, you should use the following variables to configure specific settings. Replace these settings with the variables and leave all else unmodified:
- anonymous_enable: yes
- local_enable: yes
- write_enable: yes
- anon_upload_enable: yes
- Set permissions on the /var/ftp/pub directory to mode 0777.
- Configure the ftpd_anon_write Boolean to allow anonymous user writes.
- Set the public_content_rw_t SELinux context type to the /var/ftp/pub directory.
- If any additional tasks are required to get this done, take care of them.
