    Hi,
    I installed ubuntu 14.04 and ispconfig 3 "perfect server with apache" all work very well, but when I try conneted ftp from outside FileZilla give me error
    "Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead" in passive mode or active mode there is error.
    The problem there is external ip and the server has internal ip (I'm using pfsense), I'm sure it's not router problem, but I cant understand how configure pure-ftp and resolve the problem.
    I hope in little help.
    Regards

    Create a file /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/ForcePassiveIP where you enter your external IP. Then restart pure-ftpd

    Ensure that your firewall is not blocking the port range.

    Hi,
