It always seems like the simpliest stuff with Linux turns out soo complicated and undocumented... ArG!!!
Anyway, I have NO firewalls. I can ssh in all day long. ports all open...
Just installed vsftpd and this is the log with cuteftp

Oddly, this is from winxp. When I use gftp from linux, it connects fine, but can't write saying something about write security (in xp now, don't remember error).
Ideas?
