Does anybody knows how to allow sftpd access through iptables? I have a hard
time doing it. Actually I can connect through port 21 but when I need to do
list or any data transaction, it stop.

can anyone help?

Bienvenue!!

Are you using passive ftp?

For Active, you will require port 20 too.

for passive, you will have to open up the upper ports.

The

pasv_max_port and
pasv_min_port

in vsftpd.conf can be used to define the ports on which you want to allow passive ftp traffic.

But after succesfull listing, when I'm trying to upload, I've got this:
500 OOPS: vsf_sysutil_bind
What is meaning?
