Hi All,

I'm having some problems with proftpd at the moment, but can't work out
what it is..
I've tried it both as standalone and through inetd. Neither work, both give
the same error message. I'm running proftpd 1.2.0pre9 (the latest code I
think).
I was running a firewall script, but I tried it without that script running
(I flushed & deleted all the ipchains) to see if that made a difference.
Still no go.

As soon as I connect, type in username, password, it gives this message..
but I know its running cause I'm running it in another screen!

--------
designmagick.com (waulok.designmagick.com[192.168.0.3]) - connection
refused (down) from waulok.designmagick.com [192.168.0.3]
--------
I started it in debug level 5 mode, but it doesn't tell you anything, all
it says is this..
--------
designmagick:~ # proftpd -n -d5
designmagick.com -
designmagick.com - Config for DesignMagick FTP Server:
designmagick.com - /*
designmagick.com -  AllowOverwrite
designmagick.com -  Umask
designmagick.com - DefaultServer
designmagick.com - Umask
designmagick.com - User
designmagick.com - UserName
designmagick.com - Group
designmagick.com - GroupName
designmagick.com - ProFTPD 1.2.0pre9 standalone mode STARTUP
--------

When you connect it just gives the same error as above (connection
refused), same thing in the syslog.

This is my conf file.


# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.  It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login.  It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.

ServerName                      "DesignMagick FTP Server"
ServerType                      standalone
DefaultServer                   on
# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
Port                            21
# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files
# from being group and world writable.
Umask                           022

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30.  If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value.  Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances                    30

# Set the user and group that the server normally runs at.
User                            nobody
Group                          nogroup

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.
<Directory /*>
   AllowOverwrite                on
</Directory>

To me it looks ok, but I've looked at it so many times I'm missing
something I'm sure..
Any help would be great.

Thanks
Chris.
