Hello, I set up a suse 10.1 server using your instructiuons and every thing worked exept proftpd. When i atempt to connect to my server via ftp i connect then the connection is closed. Could someone please help me fix the problem? Thanks
Are there any errors in your logs? What's the output of Code: netstat -tap and Code: ps aux|grep -i apparmor ?
re there does not appear to be any errors. i can also accses FTP from an online ftp client, don't know if this means anything
re Oh and this is what i see in SmartFTP from a remote computer: Code: SmartFTP v1.5.991.32 Resolving host name "**.***.***.**" Connecting to **.***.***.** Port: 21 Connected to **.***.***.**. 220 ProFTPD 1.3.0 Server (mainserver) [::ffff:192.168.1.25] USER [email protected] 331 Password required for [email protected]. PASS (hidden) 230 User [email protected] logged in. SYST 215 UNIX Type: L8 FEAT 211-Features: MDTM REST STREAM SIZE 211 End PWD 257 "/" is current directory. TYPE A 200 Type set to A PASV An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine. Server closed connection so possibly someone can tell the problem from that
I can not transfer at all, i get on then defore the directory loads it kicks me off... EDIT: when i do Code: [i]ftp localhost[/i] it works so i think there is a problem with accsesing it out of the firewall
Um i think i located the problem, the passive ftp does not work, i can log in but when i run the ls command its hangs. it configured the ftp to only use port 6111 for passive, then i forwarded it on my netgear router to 192.168.1.25, my suse server but it still does not work!! i know ftp server works becuase i can do transfers from within the network but i can't transfer from out side
Either use active transfers, or have a look here: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6104&highlight=60000
