Hey list,

Sorry for all the questions today. But I am trying to wrap up this ftp business and still having some issues. I appreciate your input.

SELinux is temporarily disabled (until I can work this all out) and I am now able to log into the FTP server.

[root@LCENT05:~] #/usr/bin/ftp localhost Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1). 220 FTP Server ready. Name (localhost:root): bluethundr 331 Password required for bluethundr Password: 230 User bluethundr logged in Remote system type is UNIX. Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp> ls 227 Entering Passive Mode (xx,xx,xx,xxx,255,44). ftp: connect: Invalid argument ftp>

I still have DebugLevel set to 10 in the config and this is what I see in the proftpd logs:

This is what my proftpd config is looking like at the moment.

I have the default root set to this directory:

DefaultRoot /var/www/html/jokefire.com

And I give access to this directory with this directive:

<Directory /var/www/html/jokefire.com> <Limit ALL> AllowAll </Limit> </Directory>

I plan to tighten up the security a little bit as I make some more progress. But my immediate goal is just to get this to work. :)

Here is the entire config.. just in case it might help!

Thanks once again!
