If it were a firewall problem, shouldn't ALL connections be refused?
I'm always able to connect from the command line ftp on my personal
computer.
Also, we use a shared passwd/shadow file across all of our servers.
So if the password in /etc/shadow was bad, I would think that the
redhat 7.3 boxes would also be responding with password errors.
I don't think it's a password problem, though. According to the
verbose logs, the users are able to log in, but once they issue a
command, their ftp programs disconnect with no error logs on our end.
And yes, they are using passive mode :).
Thanks,
Kristina
