Can't connect with ftp client

I can connect with the the web ftp but when i try to connect with smart ftp it says connection created then the server resets the connection. The web user has admin rights and ftp is set up for the site.

 

To check if proftp is running please check the output of:
netstat -tap

If Proftp is running indeed, please do not use your FTP-client in "Passive mode".
When your FTP-connection is rather slow, you can considder to add:

UseReverseDNS off
IdentLookups off


to your /etc/proftpd.conf file.

 

This is the output of nestat -tap

tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 29852/proftpd: (acc

This all i have in my proftp.conf file. I put what you suggested but i still isn't working shouldn't there be more in my proftp.conf file.

DefaultRoot ~
IdentLookups off
ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready"
UseReverseDNS off
IdentLookups off


Include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf

 

This is strange indeed and not enough.

There is an original config file for proftpd available.
I suggest to use it now, so do the following:

cp /etc/proftpd.conf file /etc/proftpd-old.conf
cp /proftpd.conf.orig /etc/proftpd.conf

Restart proftp with:

/etc/init.d/proftpd start

or

/etc/init.d/proftpd restart

 

I can change permissions with the web-ftp now but i still get the same message with the ftp client

 

I entered the wrong ip address. Its been along night

 

Ok then, i do not hope that i make that mistake one day!
