vsftpd showing Offline

Its not listed as 127.0.0.1 but localhost.

 

It shouldn't be listening on localhost only unless you want no one but the server itself to connect.

If anything it should be 0.0.0.0 so it allows connection from other hosts.

I haven't checked ISPC but if it conencts via the servers network IP and not localhost then this is why it's failing.
Configure proftpd to use 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost.

 

What's in /etc/hosts and /etc/proftpd.conf?

 

The Server also listens on the correct Name as listed on Page 3 of this Thread, so external connects are available, I only showed the one entry above because of the reqzuest that 127.0.0.1 should be added.

@Falko, das ganze ist von seite 3 nicht geandert!
The info is already on page 3 of this thread which I have not changed.!

 

Ah, I remember. The FTP server that brought me to my wits' end... Sorry, but I'm still clueless...

 

Hi Falco, it suddenly dawned on me about the localhost thing...

In the proftpd.conf, we always used the following:

I then changed this to use "localhost" instead:

And all was ok. WebFTP is working and the Service now see's a "GREEN"

This also will ONLY work when "SocketBindTight on" is set in the Server config.

Does this make any sense to you?

 

I guess if it's working, it's ok.
