after further inspection i came to this: - i have no local dns server (only a few entries in /etc/hosts, only for the workgroup computers) - i use the dns provided by the ISP - pasv_address=... option tries to resolve the given domain name to an IP using dns - if there's no internet connection for any reason, there's no dns either, so it will fail/timeout - this crashes(?) vsftpd (or at lest it quits)
so the problem is not "vsftpd quits when there's no working internet connection" anymore, it should be "vsftpd quits when pasv_address= can't resolve to an IP" (and for me, there's NAT involved too, to make it more complicated) -- vsftpd quits when there's no working internet connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277114 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
