When using the FTP helper to allow LAN clients to connect to remote
servers using active (PORT) ftp (because the remote end will not permit
PASV) I run into timeout issues where every few minutes the FTP client
hangs for about a minute. In the logs I see:
pftpx[pid]: #4463 client reset connection
I am transferring about one thousand smaller (1.4Mb) files - SD video
frames.
Do i somehow need to update the number of connections the pftpx can
handle? The problem seems far worse if I transfer multiple files at once
(using FileZilla's concurrent uploads). The delays I describe above are
with just a single file at a time.
I wonder... could it be that pftpx keeps the connection open to the server
longer, and the server has a limit to the maximum number of concurrent
connections? So the server could think that I am transferring more files
at once than it allows because pftpx still has connections open even after
they are closed by the FTP client...???
Thoughts?
Thanks,
