The problem had two faces, indeed. Yes, I WAS TESTTING FROM THE FIREWALL MASHINE ! SHAME AND MUD ON ME ! The second thing is, that the "realy cool" NIC from adaptec were not willing to work for more than a few megs in the server. I carried them home into a DELL monster, with 64 bit PCI slots, setup a client mashine, and ftp works !
God, sometime I ask myself, if I'm such an idiot, or if the docs are not Fully dummy-proof. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Daniel Hartmeier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 4.

Then, obviously, the ftp control connections are not being redirected to the proxy (if you get a working control connection), or the inetd.conf line is wrong (if the connection is dropped immediately). The rdr described in the ftp-proxy man page works only on the internal interface, which means only connections coming in through that interface will be forwarded to the proxy. You're not testing this from the firewall itself, are you? Verify that the control connections pass through the interface specified in the rdr rule, that the rdr rule is actually loaded, and pf is enabled. If that's the case, each forwarded connection will cause a new ftp-proxy process to appear in ps. Daniel
