FTP Errors No More

Sunday, May 27. 2007
The FTP errors have been resolved thanks to the help of Remi_Woler on Freenode. I stopped using ProFTPd and installed Pure-FTPd from source, and set it up similarly to the previous setup. It should be all working as of this post, if not - let me know.

This fixed a common problem of random timeouts and things, we'll see.

FTP Errors - PASV

Friday, May 25. 2007
Recently errors have been coming in regarding FTP access via a PASV connection. I've researched the issue and have discovered its cause.

The configuration file for ProFTPd was missing a directive to limit the PASV ports to 60,000 - 65,535 instead of 1024 - 65,535. The ports from 1024 - 60,000 have been blocked for security reasons and therefore connections were not successful. The line has been added back, and it should be working just fine.

If you still have errors, comment to let me know or email me at graham.christensen@itrebal.com.
