I decided to enable FTP access on my CentOS4 server for a friend of mine to use for a short time and we are having a curious problem that Google can't seem to help with. VSFTP is running, and will connect, but after you enter your username and password it never is able to return the home directory listing. I've tried both passive and active modes with multiple FTP clients, scoured the vsftpd.conf, firewall is open on 20 and 21 (I even tried disabling the firewall briefly to make sure that was not the problem) but no luck. anyone ever see this before?

I usually ftp via scp. I was hoping to let my friend use their existing WSFTP client as they fear change and I don't have extra time to handhold.

TIA

Dave
