since a recent -current upgrade I've had this issue that ftp connections in my LAN would break as soon as a data connection was opened.
I am currently on RC4.
Symptoms: midnight commander refuses to enter a directory with a red popup saying
Code:
Error - cannot change directory
In the classical ftp client the problem can be triggered by using the ls command (active or passive mode irrelevant):
Code:
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Here comes the directory listing.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Code:
ftp> pa
Passive mode on.
ftp> ls
227 Entering Passive Mode (...).
150 Here comes the directory listing.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
this happens for localhost and remote hosts, but not consistently for all directories.
I'm investigating, but maybe someone has an idea where else to look?
Update: normally started from inetd without tcp wrappers, i have tried standalone mode. result is the same.
