[L] 530 Invalid user

[krimzon]

hello everyone..
i am having a hell of a time with this setup...

i have followed the instructions to a tee.

my configuration is as such;

dsl speedstream modem is configured to connect to the isp.
computer is configured with an internal ip of 192.168.2.2 .
Host = 65.93.27.86
Bind = 192.168.2.2

now when trying to connect to the site i get this;

[L] Connecting to 65.93.27.86:21
[L] 220 FTP Server Ready
[L] USER ioFTPD
[L] 530 Invalid user

i can't get in to do anything, and i can't figure out why. i have tried everything i can think of, and this error is not in the knowledge base.

please help.

thanks.
krimz.

do you have a fixed ip at isp ???
or why do you configure host = 65.93.27.86 ?!?

if you are behind a normal dsl router with a dynamic ip from ISP use this:


[Any]

Host = 0.0.0.0
;Bind =


- configure a dynamic dns account in you router (if possible)
www.dyndns.org is recommended (stable)

- forward following (under router's virtual/localserver) to your internal ip
ftp port, ftp-port -1 , whole pasv-port-range

btw...are you really sure you type in username and pass correctly ?!?!? (CASE SENSITIV) !!!

Check /logs/Error.log for any clues, if there's no relevant entries then the user simply doesn't exist. Check /etc/UserIdTable to verify that the user does indeed exist.

The problem is most likely that you're connecting from an IP which does not match any of the user's accepted host-masks (hint: SITE ADDIP/DELIP).
