Dear all,

I've installed pure-ftpd on a Debian 5.0.7 box using the standard config.
When I try to connect from another machine on the same subnet, or even
from the localhost, I get the message:

Connected to 10.1.2.3.
[...and then, a few seconds later,]
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection

There is no firewall blocking connections. Any hint?
Thanks a lot in advance,

L.

did you check the bind configuration ()?

Just to confirm, I've sniffed the network and there is indeed a FIN
packet sent from 10.1.2.3 to the connecting machine.
Probably the config of pure-ftpd is wrong?

I dunno how "pure-ftpd" works but as it says "connected" and then closes
the connection, could that be an authentication issue? Does ftp log say
something?

Hi,
I haven't BIND installed on my system -- I need no DNS server on it.

Leonardo,

i'm talking about pure-ftpd bind configuration :-)

In conf file (maybe /etc/pure-ftpd.conf) there must be a "bind" directive.


Or something similar in the init script options (-S or --bind <ip address,port>)

Anyway, give a look also at:
