• Re: Mystiic FTP server issue

    Hi,

    Anyone have a similar experience or know of any issues using the FTP server in A49? Even while logging in with my user account, I could sometimes get to /Uploads, but in all cases, a 'ls' would close the data connection.

    I tried this:
    configure server for anonymous
    configure a filearea names tmpup
    setting with anonymous set to yes and create dir done by Mystic!
    login with local FTP client,
    change to tmpup
    mput <filename> -> error bad sequence of commands

    When I try it with non-anonymous setup, and login with test user with normal user settings + correct sec levels configured I am able to upload files ....

    Hopes this helps, oh I am on a48 :)

    gTX! sPI

    What host did you use for this test? If it works there, what were your FTP service settings? Passive mode enabled/ and/or forced? Any relevant firewall rules other than TCP/21?

    Sorry for the inquisition - this has me perplexed.

    It was a setup on my local network. The client was just a linux box, terminal and ftp command, like ftp ip <port>

    I would suggest to try this first to make sure you have it working locally, then move forward to a remote situation.

    If I have time I will have a look at filezilla this weekend.

    gtX!
