(I need to ftp 300MB from work to home, and no cd-burner, or VPN access)
I've recently installed and configured a new linux machine as
a web server and firewall (connected to cable modem).
Using ftp and telnet from my NT used to work but now FTP can't
seem to accept commands. Telnet and browser work with my
IP Masq set to DENY everything and ALLOW forward from local
192.168.* FTP does connect (from NT or LM7.1 server)
to sites and accept passwords, but it won't process commands.
WS-FTP (win) says that packets are not coming from 192.168.*
and in LM, I just get the ftp prompt with no change.
Is this what is meant by passive mode ? There was no such
setting in WS-FTP, and I don't know where to look in LM.
My /etc/inetd.conf contains
#
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd
and I restrict them in /etc/hosts.allow
ftp: 127.0.0.1 192.168.1. xxx.yyy.zzz.
(xxx.* is a trusted subnet at work)
In my rc.firewall file, I tried adding
# These modules are necessary to masquerade their respective services.
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
but no change. What do I do next ?
Thanks... Dan.
