proftp | slack
hi,
i'm testing my ftp server, when connecting to it i get the following: bash-2.05b# ftp localhost Connected to localhost. 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection ftp> anyone know whats wrong? or how can i fix it? thanks in advance |
I had a similar problem.
What solved it for me was to give the user that was having the problem a shell that appears in /etc/shells. I used usermod's -s option to do this. By default, it seems that Slackware leaves the default shell field in /etc/passwd blank. I think I figured out what was going on by running proftpd with -d -n, tried connecting, and watched what was going on. Lyle |
anyone?

First, have you checked the ProFTPd error log to see what the problem is? Make sure you have error logging enabled in the ProFTPd config file and try it again. Make sure you don't have any firewall configurations that will block the FTP traffic.
Peace... |
