I ran into an SSL issue a while back. Here is what I found which may assist you in your work.
The SSL over FTP traffic is based on internet standards RFC-2246 and RFC-2228. These two are all "proposed" standards. This means that this type of traffic may not be supported by all softwares/firewalls related to ftp. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Wall, Richard Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2001 11:48 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] Ports Needed ? Hello, Our developers are planning to use FTP over SSL, between machines on our customer's LANs, and a machine on our own company firewall DMZ. The customers act as the clients, and our DMZ machine is the server. They plan to use the WS_FTP Ipswitch software. Can someone tell me what ports are used by the WS_FTP software? I need to know what access to open on the customer's own firewalls, to allow outbound WS_FTP connections. I need to know what access to open on our own firewall to allow inbound WS_FTP connections. Is this all simply done with standard TCP 20, 21, and >1023 ports? Or does this product use TCP port 989, 990, and possibly others? Does the WS_FTP server software accept passive FTP connections? Any help will be most appreciated. Dick Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
