I don't know if this is your issue or not, but here's something I ran
into that was similar.  Checkpoint expects the new line command twice
(\n\n) follwing a PORT command, but many FTP implementations only have
one.  You can stop the check for the second \n if you edit the ftp.def
file. The full details are in 36.0.152763.2473228 in the knowledge base.


Short version, if this is NGX (you didn't give the version), is:

Make a backup of $FWDIR/lib/ftp.def
Edit $FWDIR/lib/ftp.def, and find "#define FTPPORT_NL 1".  Change it to
"#define FTPPORT_NL 0"
Save the file, and push the policy to the enforcement point again

Subject: [FW-1] FTP: Port command ended without a new line error

Hey guru's,

l seem to being running into an FTP protocol issue.

l have users trying to FTP active/passive into a server, and l can see
the traffic coming in fine. l do see a lot of rejected requests with the
"Port command ended without a new line error".

Anyone know what this is? Smart Defence config?

Thanks in advance,

Alan
