thx in advance guys

[InFiNi]

In first place you don't need to set up default.vfs. On the first time you have to connect with admin user (ioFTPD - user and pass) so you have to set up up admin.vfs

---- admin.vfs begin ----
"d:\Ftp" /
---- admin.vfs end ----

Second thing is Hosts.Rules (be carefull how you setup rules "POLICY DENY OR ACCEPT")!

And third thing (most important) you have to do is ... watch log dir for errors (...\ioFTPD\logs) and read them!

[en3rmax]

this is really weird still no joy InFiNi

could i see an example of admin.vfs & Hosts.Rules

thx InFiNi

[en3rmax]

been trying it again still no luck i have changed some of the settings

[Any]
Host = ftp.serveftp.com
Ports = 1024-2048
Blind = xxx.xxx.xx.x
Random = True
;Global_Inbound_Bandwidth = 10000
;Global_Outbound_Bandwidth = 10000
;Client_Inbound_Bandwidth = 100 [*registered version*]
;Client_Outbound_Bandwidth = 50 [*registered version*]
;Bind =


[FTP_Service]
Type = FTP
Device_Name = Any
Port = 444
Description = My FTP Service
User_Limit = 10
Allowed_Users = *
Messages = ..\text\ftp


im not sure about the admin.vfs here are my settings

"d:\Ftp" /
"c:\" /mnt/c-drive
"d:\" /mnt/d-drive
"e:\" /mnt/cdrom
"\\192.168.1.1\Work" /mnt/samba

not sure how to set this

# Default policy
#
# POLICY ACCEPT CONNECTIONS_PER_IP
# POLICY DENY
#
#POLICY ACCEPT 2
## PLEASE REMOVE LINE BELOW
POLICY DENY

# Classes
#
# CLASS CLASS_NAME TOTAL_CONNECTIONS_PER_CLASS
CLASS NORDIC 25
CLASS ADMIN -1

# Rules
#
# ACCEPT I|H IP|HOSTNAME CLASS_NAME CONNECTIONS_PER_IP

ACCEPT H .no NORDIC 1
DENY I 192.168. "Banned network address"
DENY I 10. "Banned network address"
DENY H .tw "Access from taiwan is prohibited"


i have forwarded ports 444 & 1024 1028 to xxx.xxx.xx.x

sorry for the grief guys im new to this and wanna change from servu

[JoC]

change it to:
POLICY ACCEPT 2
## PLEASE REMOVE LINE BELOW
#POLICY DENY

[InFiNi]

Hm ... :p


1) ioftpd.ini

Host = 192.168.25.6 (don't write domain if you have internal IP / behind server or router)

where did you get?
Blind = 192.168.25.6 (or did you mean Bind? and you don't need this at begining so leave ti)

[Any]
Host = 192.168.25.6
Ports = 1024-2048
Random = True
;Global_Inbound_Bandwidth = 10000
;Global_Outbound_Bandwidth = 10000
;Client_Inbound_Bandwidth = 100 # [*registered version*]
;Client_Outbound_Bandwidth = 50 # [*registered version*]
;Bind =


2) admin.vfs
at the begining just try to use root dir (no other stuff)
"d:\Ftp" /


3) Hosts.Rules (As JoC wrote)

POLICY ACCEPT 2
#POLICY DENY
#you can change nordic to ANONYMOUS
CLASS NORDIC 10
CLASS ADMIN -1

ACCEPT I 192.168.25. ADMIN -1
ACCEPT I 127.0.0. ADMIN -1
#ACCEPT H .fi NORDIC 2
#ACCEPT H .se NORDIC 1
#ACCEPT H .no NORDIC 1
#be carefull at this next line
#DENY I 192.168. "Banned network address"
#DENY I 10. "Banned network address"
#DENY H .tw "Access from taiwan is prohibited"

Afer changing this settings you have to restart ioftpd!!!


4) While you try to mount "\\192.168.1.1\Work" /mnt/samba i think you have linux for the server and firewall?
Some linux have problems if you try to connect from local IP to external (215.155.155.5) and theh be forwarded on the same machine again.
(from 192.168.25.6 -> 215.155.155.5 ->forward-> 192.168.25.6)
Just try to cennect from machine that you're running ioftpd on local IP with passive mode.
User and pass: ioFTPD
ip: 192.168.25.6 Port 444

And if you use linux you just need to forward port 444 and nothing else (hope u know how)


5) check the log dir for logs and errors and read them!!!

[en3rmax]

thx for the info InFiNi it really helped

ive got it to connect now but as its connecting i will pause for a bit then connect, i get these errors

[R] Opening data connection IP: xx.xx.xxx.x PORT: 1229
[R] Data Socket Error: Connection timed out
[R] List Error

[R] PASV mode failed, trying PORT mode.

[R] PORT mode was successful, Please update your site profile.

when i try to send a file to my ftp i get this

[R] Data Socket Error: Connection timed out
[R] Transfer Failed!
[R] PASV

[InFiNi]

If you try to connect local you can use active mode (passive from outside).

Did you check log folder for errors?
( 5) check the log dir for logs and errors and read them!!!)

[en3rmax]

Hi there ive turned off use passive mode in flash and it seems to be working fine, is there an option in ioFTPD to turn off passive

i've sorted this now guys passive is working now, i forwarded more ports on the router cheers :)

cheers for the info InFiNi & JoC really appreciate it

& thx tuff for a wicked ZipScript - ioSFV
