Thank you for the excellent suggestion, I'll give that a try. I can see now in the manual that there are some recommendations for FTP servers, but I'm going to first try the * server to see what happens.

You can then get more information from the logs and you have more choices for which server to run. We have excellent luck with pure-ftpd in a gentoo installation. It allows us to make virtual FTP users so that *only* the users who are defined in the virtual system are able to open a session. -- -M There are 10 kinds of people in this world: ~Those who can count in binary and those who cannot. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___________________________________________________________ Sent by ePrompter, the premier email notification software.
