Hi Peoples,

I'm still beating my head with the Proftpd although I have solved my orininal issue. That turned out to be an iptables issue and I'm beginning to wonder if iptables is playing with me again. I have an FTP server that allows anonymous downloads and with specific accounts able to upload to the anonymous directory. The problem is, those users cannot upload. I have attached my proftpd conf file and my iptables for those willing to take a look and provide some feedback:

Thanks for any feedback.

Iptables:
