An interesting Problem

Out2lunch · 12-28-2005, 09:01 AM

Ive been useing FlashFXP for a long time now, and finally decided to purchase it after a long trial. As I have started to use it everyday...

Heres the Problem.

I have 3 servers, and have always FXPed stuff between them, and this has been faultless till I had to re-config my computer...

Lets Call Server 1 - Storm, and Server 2 - Typhoon.

I can FXP useing passive mode etc from Typhoon to Storm, or to any other server I like, no worries...

But I cant FXP to TYPHOON. Everytime I try FlashFXP ends up geting stuck entering passive mode, and finally disconnects...

How wan this happen? If if can FXP away from it, I should be able to FXP to it... (I have admin lev accounts on all the boxes im a transfering between).

Oh heres the Interesting bit, I can FTP from home to Typhoon, just not from another box.
Also my other user on the box doesnt have this problem, and is able to FXP to it...

So Can anyone help me?

Have u tried FXP thru PORT Mode and does the servers use any SSL?

Sorry what do you mean through port mode?

Limit the ports that it can use?

No they dont use SSL (as far s im aware)

FTP Server Soft:

Storm - Glftpd
Typhoon - PureFTP

What is so strange is that 2 Other users can transfer in and out of it with out a problem, one of them even triend my logins and it works for them.

I have tried the Beta ver and last Stable ver too.
I have also tried UltraFXP and it also has the same problem. Could it be a problem on my computer do you think?

Under "Options" for the specific account so can u uncheck the "Use Passive Mode", when doing this it goes to PORT Mode

PORT = Active Mode
PASV = Passive Mode

If SSL should been enabled so shouldn't u have been able 2 login without enabling the right SSL on ur side.

So @ this point so does it seems 2 me that it's something on ur side thats not config'd right

that's incorrect instructions for FXP transfers.
use passive mode affect ONLY your connection.
what you want is 'alternative FXP' option in site manager
