RE: I am unable to connect to my ftp server from anything other than the local host

2007-01-29 Thread Guillermo Gonzalez

Ok, just so everyone knows the problem I was having where I was getting a
421 error when trying to connect to my ftp server was due to an error on my
part when setting up ftpd.  I had it both in rc and in inetd.conf.

 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.

First, check to see that ftpd is listening on that address:
sockstat -4
If you don't see the program listening, you'll have to tweak your
ftpd config.

If the program is listening, check your settings for any packet filters.
Are you running pf or ipfw?

I don't know where you got the idea that you should worry about pam, but
the fact that you can log in shows that your auth configuration is
correct.
