Hi Bill, It's probably a firewall issue. If your using iptables for your firewall (highly recommended over ipchains for ftp stuff) then be sure your firewall allows traffic on:
TCP 20 and 21 UDP 20 and 21 And that your iptables firewall script loads the following modules: insmod ip_tables insmod ip_conntrack insmod ip_conntrack_ftp Cheers, Rob -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Bill Wagner Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2002 7:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: proftpd problem I've got proftpd-1.2.5rc1-1 installed on a 7.2 machine and it's up and running. Where the problem is is when I connect from my any machine behind a firewall. Here's what I get: Current remote directory is /. ncftp / > ls connect failed: Connection refused. Falling back to PORT instead of PASV mode. List failed. I can pretty much do anything I want, put files, remove them, whatever, but nothing ever shows up when I do an 'ls' which is a slight pain in the arse. I know it's something to do with the firewall I'm behind (is there some option when compiling the kernel in a firewall machine that can eliminate this?), but the thing that really makes me scratch my head is that I can ftp into other machines running this same version, but I don't have that problem. I've done a google search, but didn't come up with much. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
