Hello, It appears proftpd is running (when I do a netstat) but I can't connect to it with ISPConfig's "Web-FTP" and running some debugging reveals some sort of error: root@ubuntu:/home/donovan# proftpd -t Checking syntax of configuration file - setting default address to 127.0.0.1 Syntax check complete. root@ubuntu:/home/donovan# proftpd -n -c /etc/proftpd.conf - setting default address to 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain - Failed binding to 0.0.0.0, port 21: Address already in use localhost.localdomain - Check the ServerType directive to ensure you are configured correctly. root@ubuntu:/home/donovan# proftpd -d 5 - mod_ctrls/0.9.4: binding ctrls socket to '/var/run/proftpd/proftpd.sock' - parsing '/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf' configuration - parsing '/etc/proftpd/modules.conf' configuration - mod_tls/2.1.1: using OpenSSL 0.9.8e 23 Feb 2007 - disabling runtime support for IPv6 connections - DenyFilter: compiling deny regex '\*.*/' - <IfModule>: using 'mod_tls.c' section at line 90 - <IfModule>: skipping 'mod_quota.c' section at line 94 - <IfModule>: skipping 'mod_ratio.c' section at line 98 - <IfModule>: using 'mod_delay.c' section at line 106 - <IfModule>: using 'mod_ctrls.c' section at line 110 - mod_ctrls/0.9.4: closing ctrls socket '/var/run/proftpd/proftpd.sock' (3) - <IfModule>: using 'mod_ctrls_admin.c' section at line 118 - parsing '/etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf' configuration - setting default address to 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain - localhost.localdomain - Config for Debian: localhost.localdomain - DeferWelcome localhost.localdomain - DefaultServer localhost.localdomain - ShowSymlinks localhost.localdomain - TimeoutNoTransfer localhost.localdomain - TimeoutStalled localhost.localdomain - TimeoutIdle localhost.localdomain - DisplayLogin localhost.localdomain - DisplayFirstChdir localhost.localdomain - ListOptions localhost.localdomain - DenyFilter localhost.localdomain - UserID localhost.localdomain - UserName localhost.localdomain - GroupID localhost.localdomain - GroupName localhost.localdomain - Umask localhost.localdomain - DirUmask localhost.localdomain - AllowOverwrite localhost.localdomain - TransferLog localhost.localdomain - TLSEngine localhost.localdomain - DelayEngine localhost.localdomain - DefaultRoot localhost.localdomain - IdentLookups localhost.localdomain - ServerIdent localhost.localdomain - localhost.localdomain - Config for Debian: localhost.localdomain - DefaultRoot localhost.localdomain - AllowOverwrite localhost.localdomain - Umask localhost.localdomain - mod_ctrls/0.9.4: binding ctrls socket to '/var/run/proftpd/proftpd.sock' root@ubuntu:/home/donovan# netstat -tap Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 4156/mysqld tcp 0 0 *:81 *:* LISTEN 17368/ispconfig_htt tcp 0 0 *:ftp *:* LISTEN 19043/proftpd: (acc [snip] Thanks for any help on this!

I am thinking: /etc/hosts/ Get rid of: '127.0.1.1 ubuntu.elatia.net ubuntu' /proftpd.conf Change: UseIPv6 on ServerName "UbuntuServ" (not sure on ServerName... "UbuntuServ" is the name of my server... "ubuntu" is the host name... not sure which to use) Thanks for your comments! Donovan
O.K., this morning I realized that I could now connect to "Web-FTP" (ISPConfig). I think it was a simple mistake of not knowing how to work ISPConfig... as one has to set up a site to manage first. Donovan (off to RTFM)
Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ubuntu.elatia.net 127.0.1.1 ubuntu.elatia.net ubuntu 10.0.1.200 ubuntu.elatia.net ubuntu Also I don't find wise that you use the same hostname (ubuntu.elatia.net) in 3 different places. The following setup would be sufficient and much clearer: Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 10.0.1.200 ubuntu.elatia.net ubuntu
