hello everyone
for sometime now i had, or well, i tohught i had set up correctly proftpd as ftp server.
but i was trying today to make an rc.firewall script. and now proftpd doesn'r 'play' correctly even when i flush iptables!
i stop the firewall and verifiy its stopped:
iptables -L returns that all chains have policy accept.
and my proftpd.conf is rather standard.. i have however changed the ftp port to 11121 (QUESTION: should i put the ftp-data port in rc.firewall at port=11120, should i leave it at 20 necessarily? any ideas??)here it is
Code:
# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file.
# It establishes a single server and a single anonymous login.
# It assumes that you have a user/group "nobody" and "ftp"
# for normal/anonymous operation.
ServerName "ProFTPD Default Installation"
ServerType standalone
#ServerType inetd
DefaultServer on
# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
Port 11121

# from being group and world writable.

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances 30

# Set the user and group that the server normally runs at.

now the problem is that when i try to log on to this server from another pc using the console linux command to log on to this server, i notice the following:
1.the 'connected to <ip address> appears almost instantly but ihave to wait for about 10 secs till the field to input username appears - this can't be normal.
2. after typing the wassword and log on, i can not do 'ls'... it says
Quote:
root@pelagus:~# ftp 147.102.19.22 11121
Connected to 147.102.19.22. //after this i wait for approx 10 secs
