This sounds like something that should be handled at that level." > Example FTP URL ? you could try lnxnt.org, it runs vsftpd 2.0.7 and currently has tls for anonymous users enabled.

Only with this information a Gecko developer can deceide if the bug is valid. You can't expect that our developers waste their time with digging through every addon that gets reported here and 90% of such issues are bugs in the addon itself.

Sorry for not weighing in earlier. The code in question is here: http://www.mozdev.org/source/browse/fireftp/src/content/js/connection/dataSocket.js?rev=1.52 Basically, all FireFTP does is, when it comes to SSL sockets: this.dataTransport = this.transportService.createTransport(["ssl"], 1, this.host, this.port, proxyInfo); There isn't anything that the extension does beyond that in messing around with the socket. It seems that something underlying in Mozilla's socket code is conflicting with vsftpd patched code. Is vsftpd at fault or is Mozilla code at fault? I'm not sure - I think a networking engineer at Mozilla might need to take a look. FWIW, my guess is this bug should be filed under Core->Networking.

I have setup a hosting server based on vsftp and I allow only TLS connections to it. So none of my clients can use fireftp.... Filezilla works nice with it....

I think it may work without passive mode, may you have a try?

Reconnect. Sorry. But I have require_ssl_reuse=YES and tried NO in my vsftpd.conf file, but it doesn't seem to matter for fireftp. FileZilla works great either way. Almost a year since the last post on this bug, is there any hope of it getting fixed?
