The FTP in my FW1 (4.1SP1+hotfix) system seems to have troubles.
I have clients connect with service ftp to my ftp server and the source
port is something like 1668. The firewall accepts this, and then rejects a
connection back from my ftp server to the client (service is 1668 and
source port is ftp). For a rejection reason it said 'trying to open other
host port'. Last night this happened about 20 times for one client and the
source ports were in the 3800s.
I've seen similar sorts of errors to this with my DBMS clients. Why is the
firewall all of a sudden rejecting connections back on the same ports?
I also have troubles when transferring large batches of files. Halfway
through, I see this same sort of thing and the ftp connection drops.
Any help would be appreciated.
