FTP/Ports/Connection

[iamola]

Using Filezilla... all ports mentioned are open and directed to the NAS in my Linksys Router.

So i tried to use SFTP (port 8022) - FAILED.
So i setup FTPS (port 990) and FTPES (port 2121), tried both - FAILED (This one was weird because it actually connected but it seems like the server kicked me off. the log shows me as "Denied"). To add, i did create the Certificate.

Tried changing the port to 31 for external on my router, routing to internal 21 - FAILED
Tried changing all ports to 31 on both NAS and router - FAILED.

Seems like the only thing that works is port 21!
I have the data port 21 open also.

And yes, my router works fine because i changed my webport to another port from 80 and that works perfectly fine.

I checked sftp, it works as expected :scratch so something must be wrong in your setup

(I connected with PC within the LAN)

will check FTPS later, need to generate new certificate :mrgreen:

also FTPeS works on port 2121, (note FTPES only accepts active mode)

end FTPS also on port 990 (NB standard mode I can connect but do not get folder listing, with active mode it works ok, see output FileZilla below

So again there must be something wrong in your setup (did you try active mode ?...see help menu also of ftp menu)
Further question, what does your ftp log learns us about the failure you get ?

I edit post above (added FTPS trial)

[iamola]

How do you have yours setup?
I am using DDNS service.

For SFTP, i activated by using the checkbox, setup Filezilla to use SFTP with the port.... no go.
Created the Certificate for FTPS/FTPES, turned it on and used Filezilla for Implicit connection.... no go.
Tried Explicit... no go.
Tried both ports on both implicit and explicit... no go.

Finally got them to work, but seems like FTPS and FTPES is buggy.
Could not get the directory list but i see in the log that they connected.

Would you recommend only SFTP? As thats the only one that gave me the directory listing.

Did you use äctive mode"for FTPS FTPES ? (if you use standard then you get the issue you mention, connection but no listing.

SFTP is to my opinion as good as these two, but I seldom use FTP so my advice is not based on good experience. Next week Jocko is back. He has more experience with FTP

I also use SFTP, it's very stable.

Not sure how experienced you are with FTP, but a good hint is to add your FTP server as a network location in your File Explore, very handy. For SFTP you need to install extra software, but plenty of info on the internet

Hi iamola,

I go to look at this point next week but I don't think that.

Maybe you need some additional information.

FTPS and FTPES uses a certificate, the server name must be the same that this one set with the certificate (CN). As you enable the DDNS service, this should be ok (FTP server name = certificate company name = DDNS).

Then, you need to use the DDNS to connect to the FTPS and FTPES servers instead of the nas name. But following your ISP box, you may not to be able to connect to the FTPS and FTPES servers from your LAN. Indeed, some routers don't allow loopback (http://help.screenconnect.com/Cannot_ac ... s_from_LAN). In this case, you can only check these servers from Internet. You can use this url to do it
