ProFTPD Allows log in but freezes everywhere else.

Hi,

I got a fresh install of Virualmin running on Debian 5.0.2.

When i login with ftp I can authenticate but then when I type any command like 'dir' it freezes on '200 PORT command successful', if I wait 5 minutes it says '425 Unable to build data connection: Connection timed out.'

I installed FTP after Virtualmin and after I created some virtual servers, could this be an issue?

I checked the FTP log and there is nothing there apart from a few failed login attempts from incorrectly entering the password.

I ran 'Re-Check Config' from 'System Settings' and it said that /bin/false was missing from /etc/shell so i added it and that error message went away. Now when i run Check Config there are no errors.

Any thoughts?

Regards,

Keyvan

Try installing the mod_conntrack_ftp module with this:

modprobe mod_conntrack_ftp

Does it work for you at that point? -Eric

I used a proper ftp program, enabled passive ports on the firewall and the config file of proftp and that works. But regular windows ftp command still does not work. Port 21 is open on the firewall (pix box)

There is no module called ip_conntrack_ftp on my system is it nf_conntrack_ftp as listed below maybe?

This is a print out of lsmod:
