Re: ftp problem

When configuring the firewall, I set it to allow http and ftp. Looks fine at this point. But when I check to see which ports are listening, there is nothing showing for ftp. No listing for ports lower than 80.

What else can I look at to see if it is listening for ftp connection?

Yes, I did catch this. I set vsftpd to have the line "disable = no"

If you modified the vsftpd file directly (and not via the GUI), you must send xinetd a SIGHUP to make it re-read its config files. As root:

# kill -HUP `pidof xinetd`

(those are backticks or graves [on the "~" key])

As to the FTP problem, have you opened up the firewall for it?


Assuming your FTP server is running as a service of xinetd, have you
edited the applicable file in /etc/xinetd.d/ so it says "disable =
no"?


I think ipchains have been dropped from 8.0.  You are probably using
iptables.
