FTP Not Working Out of Box
FTP Not Working Out of Box
Hello,
I installed VestaCP and everything has been working great! Minus FTP.
I am unable to connect via my client using ACTIVE or PASSIVE.
For the host name I put my server's IP address
For the username, "admin"
For the password, my admin password
But it times out every time.
The port is open according to Vesta.
I tried installing proftpd instead, but the same problem occurred, so I switched back to vsftpd.
What am I doing wrong here?
I even tried creating an Additional FTP account but that didn't fix anything.
Thanks!
EDIT: Ubuntu 14

Re: FTP Not Working Out of Box
Found out that it was due to the OpenStack cloud server having ports closed.
Fixed that, but now a new problem: I am able to connect, but not able to modify any files via FTP (even as the admin account). Uploads time out, deleting is denied, and making new files is prohibited. I can only view?
I can rename files too.
One huge issue I've noticed is that even if I enter in the wrong password for the FTP account, I can connect and rename files. What's up with that? This is the default conf file from Vesta

Activate passive ports on vsftp config and also firewall rules. You can digg forum for this issue.

PASSV works fine right now. I can connect over ACTIVE or PASSV, but any password works for any username. However, the usernames are required to be correct. I'm so confused.
