proftpd not working via GUI, but works with Command line
I'm running proftpd on Ubuntu 6.06, and when I ftp into the machine with either
Code:
ftp localhost Code:
ftp 192.168.1.118 I'm not sure how familiar you guys are with mac, but with Go->Connect to Server->ftp://192.168.1.118, finder tries to connect but eventually gives and error message and hangs. I don't know if it is the way finder handles the connections, or some setting that isn't optimum for GUI tools. (I've noticed that even windows/linux/mac machines on the local network take quite some time to connect even at 100 mps) this is my config in proftpd.conf # # Includes required DSO modules. This is mandatory in proftpd 1.3 # Include /etc/proftpd/modules.conf # # /etc/proftpd.conf -- This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file. # To really apply changes reload proftpd after modifications. # ServerName "Armons FTP Server" ServerType standalone DeferWelcome on MultilineRFC2228 on DefaultServer on ShowSymlinks on TimeoutNoTransfer 300 TimeoutStalled 300 TimeoutIdle 120 DisplayLogin Welcome to Armons FTP Server DisplayFirstChdir .message ListOptions "-l" DenyFilter \*.*/ # Uncomment this if you would use TLS module: TLSEngine on # Port 21 is the standard FTP port.

(Even if you don't know how to fix it for my mac, any "better" configs would be appreciated!) |
so maybe the routing is not set correctly? if the commandline ftp gets thru and the gui does not - then maybe it tries to connect via the router and gets caught in the firewall?
im just guessing j. (i know mac quite well - i can even spell it fluently) |
I'm not sure that would do it, as the router only filters traffic coming in, not going out. Also, the machine serves http, and ssh, and smb, but the other machines can all access those services. The smb connection through GUI works though, weird huh? The only reason I care is that with ftp, It can sustain about 2 mbs transfer rate, while smb varies between 600 kbs-1.8 mbs.
