Debug.pfftpproxy=1 to enable LAN to WAN FTP
-
Any news on this issue?
-
I am workign on solving this.
-
Great, thank you :D
-
Please try with tomorrows snapshots.

HI
Flashed 2.1RC0 from 2. Juli.
It is not better , connecting and dir list and filetrasnfer is slow as hell. That means it "hangs" VERY often between the FTP commands.. Without proxy it is superfast. -
Get ones from today ones :)
-
2.1-RC0 (i386) built on Wed Jul 3 15:44:09 EDT 2013is still broken. After trying FTP through the ALIX I tested with, it became unresponsive and seems to have crashed completely. Unfortunately it's in our DC on a recently broken KVM Switch, so I have no Console output.
-
Tested it with build from 3. Juli.
FTP transfer hangs / stutter on the commands RETR and MLSD in FileZilla.
-
I still have debug.pfftp.proxy=1 in system tunables with July 3 build. Default value does not work for me.
-
Can you please be more specific on what does not work?

How to reproduce:
Just setup a fresh pfSense install, plug one (Win 7) device behind it and open a freshly installed Firefox. Key inftp://dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2/2013/05-27-2013-r21676/and wait for "425 Failed to estabilsh connection".

This works perfectly fine with SpeedCommander, Total Commander and FlashFXP (both active and passive mode). Sorry, but FF is braindead FTP "client".

Using active FTP from behind NAT has been just plain impossible with Linux/iptables-based firewalls.

Sure, but it used to work with Firefox. Plus it works behind all of the other Firewalls/Routers I have tested (Checkpoint, ASA, some D-Link device, DD-WRT, AVM Fritz…)
It's not only Firefox, Chrome does not work either.
I don't really care, but the average surfer/user will. So I posted a way how to reproduce the issue for debugging purposes. -
Yeah, FF, Chrome, IE, Safari and any other mainsteam browser are all braindead FTP clients. I'd suggest to take your issue with the browser developers. As for debugging, no debugging is possible without a session transcript (as posted above) - good luck getting anything like that from the browser - or some wireshark sniffing.

modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp;)

modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp;)
That does not really work (well or at all) with about half of FTP servers out there (a.k.a. waste of time).

Well I already did put a lot of effort into debugging this problem if you look at post #11. If I find the time, I'll do that again with the lastest snapshots. For now I can only describe how to easily reproduce the issue for debugging purposes.
-
The easiest way to get a session capture from the firewall itself is this:
# pkg_add -r tcpflow # rehash # tcpflow -c -i em0 port 21Get a capture from the LAN NIC, and the WAN NIC
-
Better to capture the whole traffic to the (otherwise unused) destination ip.
Because the traffic shouldn'd use port 21 (neither src and dst) for data and that's the problem.
