View Full Version : Can't find a way to FXP between 2 vsftpd running on debian

I have 2 dedicated servers. Each run the same configuration: a debian host OS and a debian guest OS (virtual machine). Both are setup so that their 10021 host port is forwarded to 21 guest port. I changed ips and names in the following log so that my 1st is 1.2.3.4.com (user1234, guest vm ip 192.168.12.11) and my 2nd is 5.6.7.8 (user5678, guest vm ip 192.168.56.11).

What do I do wrong please?

Summary :

Box 1 :
PI public ip : 1.2.3.4
HI host ip : 192.168.12.1
VI vm ip : 192.168.12.11
Net flow comes PI:10021 (or 20 or 50000-60000 ports range) and goes to VI:21 (or 20 or 50000-60000 ports range) through HI.

Box 2 :
PI public ip : 5.6.7.8
HI host ip : 192.168.56.1
VI vm ip : 192.168.56.11
Net flow comes PI:10021 (or 20 or 50000-60000 ports range) and goes to VI:21 (or 20 or 50000-60000 ports range) through HI.

I think I allowed all tcp connections between box1 and box2 either sides.

I tried to put ftp root directories in 777 ... then it creates 0 sized files... and the transfer freezes in the end with all files in the queue.

Only "Indirect" mode works more or less (lots of failures) at the moment... I guess it means it makes me download then upload.... which is not of course what i'd like to do...

If this is actually what happened then it is wrong.
with properly configured servers, [R] server should've replied with its public IP.
In general FlashFXP is smart enough to realize that this IP is wrong and should've sent [L] PORT command with the correct public IP, alas it didn't..

I wonder if this is also because SSL is involved. Can you try disabling SSL and try fxp transfers again?

can you post your vsftpd.conf contents please

and within site manager on the fxp setting as in screenshot try to check them or test with one checked and other unchecked and so on.

and that works a treat with FXP

You are enabling TLSv1 SSLv2 and SSLv3 yet when you connect the server responds with PROT C which disables any security, you should enable only the Security you use in this case TLSV1

Se thers a few things for you to look at and change play with, but your issue is not with flashFXP its a server configuration issue.

Also as a last note dont forget to open the Ports on the router if your planning on accessing the servers with the external IP and you also may need to setup a NOIP or Dyn DNS and configure your router properly.

X3, in the original message he stated that he forwarded ports 50000-60000.

audric (https://oss.azurewebsites.net/forum/member.php?u=72751), have you tried fxp'ing with a known working server? not to work on 2 variables at once, but work on each server at a time..
audric

I wonder if it's even possible to do what i try to do....

I have a flow like this :
VM1 192.168.12.11 <-> 192.168.12.1 HOST1 1.2.3.4 <-> INTERNET <-> 5.6.7.8 HOST2 192.168.56.1 <-> 192.168.56.11 VM2

Do you think this should work?

This questionning hit me after I read Irc's Vsftpd topic : http://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie?highlight=(\bCategoryRant\b)
audric
10-17-2011, 04:39 AM
got it working setting those values (over my inital settings) in Vsftpd on the 2 VMs :

pasv_address=1.2.3.4
connect_from_port_20=NO

and

pasv_address=5.6.7.8
connect_from_port_20=NO

Also make sure both Vms firewalls allow connections and transfers with the other one.

Then it started to work whatever the settings in FlashFXP (SSL or not, PASV upload or not).
