Ftp server problem

Speck · May 23, 2006, 1:14 PM

When the sysem boot i see only this in the system log:

May 23 14:46:15 pftpx[816]: listening on 127.0.0.1 port 8021
May 23 14:46:15 pftpx[816]: listening on 127.0.0.1 port 8021

How can i check if pftpx process is running?

when i try to connect with both wan and lan Ftp helper enabled i get this

May 23 14:48:15 pftpx[816]: #1 server timeout
May 23 14:48:15 pftpx[816]: #1 server timeout

and i can't connect!

tried now ps -aux the only line with pftpx is

proxy 816 0.0 0.2 656 492 ?? Ss 2:46PM 0:00.02 /usr/local/sbin/pftpx -c 8021 -g 8021 192.168.10.11

Thanks

I can add some info for this problem.

My WAN is configured this way:

IP 192.168.x.x GW 192.168.x.x Mask 255.255.255.0

All my external IP are configured as Virtual IP ProxyARP.

Maybe this configuration (wan with private IP and all pARP public IP) can "confuse" Ftp helper? maybe I need some special settings?

Thanks in advance!

Only if you are blocking private networks in Interfaces -> WAN.

No, I'm not blocking private networks! (box is unchecked)

I really can't understand what's wrong with my config!

Thanks anyway!

Also make sure you are not blocking bogons.
