Hi all ,

I have installed fedora core 4 ,configured vsftpd the daemon running,able to login but file upload failed stating "Consider using PASV. Could not create file. Is it seems to be write permission off in the vsftpd.conf file ?
pls help .Here is the contents of vsftpd.conf


nonymous_enable=YES

Local_enable=YES

Write_enable=YES

Local_umask=022

non_upload_enable=YES

Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create
new directories.
non_mkdir_write_enable=YES

Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they
go into a certain directory.
irmessage_enable=YES

Activate logging of uploads/downloads.
ferlog_enable=YES

Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from port 20 (ftp-data).
onnect_from_port_20=YES

If you want, you can arrange for uploaded anonymous files to be owned by
a different user. Note! Using "root" for uploaded files is not
recommended!
chown_uploads=YES
chown_username=whoever

You may override where the log file goes if you like. The default is shown
below.
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log

If you want, you can have your log file in standard ftpd xferlog format
ferlog_std_format=YES

You may change the default value for timing out an idle session.
idle_session_timeout=600

You may change the default value for timing out a data connection.
data_connection_timeout=120

It is recommended that you define on your system a unique user which the
ftp server can use as a totally isolated and unprivileged user.
nopriv_user=ftpsecure

Enable this and the server will recognise asynchronous ABOR requests. Not
recommended for security (the code is non-trivial). Not enabling it,
/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf" 110L, 4142C

This sounds like another case of vsftpd needing to be configured to support passive connections. See my post here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hlight=passive
