421 Service not available. ON CONNECT ?

[Dark Origin]

Hi all, me again :)

And with me comes a lot of interesting and wonderful problems.. This time I bring to you: a "421 Service not available, remote server has closed the connection." error.

Might sound as if Im a nutter, but this error doesn't come when Im trying to log in, and the server finds out that there is no slots available on the server. No , this error comes BEFORE I even get to know what kind of server it is..


ftp> open <server> <port>
Connected to <server>.
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection




It all worked in the old version I had of ioFTPd, then I updated to the newest version and it of course didn't work.


To make everything more weird: The LAN connection I have works flawlessly!

my two entries look like this:

[Any]
Host = <server outside IP>
Ports = 8400-8500
Random = True
Global_Inbound_Bandwidth = 130
Global_Outbound_Bandwidth = 20
Client_Inbound_Bandwidth = 130 [*registered version*]
Client_Outbound_Bandwidth = 20 [*registered version*]
Bind = 172.16.10.41 # Internal IP

[NAT]
Host = 172.16.10.41 # Internal IP
Ports = 8200-8300
Random = True


and further down:

[FTP_Service]
Type = FTP
Device_Name = Any
Port = 8520
Description = huh
User_Limit = 10
Allowed_Users = *
Messages = ..\text\ftp

[FTP_Service_NAT]
Type = FTP
Device_Name = NAT
Port = 21
Description = huh
User_Limit = 10
Allowed_Users = *
Messages = ..\text\ftp



Anyone have ANY idea ?
Thanks in advance.

What's up with the double [Any] ?

Ioftpd reads the first array it can find in ini with name "Any". If it's empty it means your setting below will not be read.

Sorry I made a mistake when editing the stuff above. Ill look it thru again, that second [ANY] isnt there in my ini file.

I am having a similar problem, i cannot connect from some sites but from others it works, locally is flawless, from my webserver in the us aswell, but some say it dosnt work at all... :/ all they get is, 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection, and its quite annoying as i see nothing in my logs on my end.

If anyone has any advice on whats wrong it would be greatly appreciated.


PS. some of the people having trouble connecting to it is from the netherlands.
