atomu ftp back online

[Anapan]

Hey all, I'm back from the job and finally got my computer hooked up and running again. As before, the login URL for your browser is:

ftp://ast:ast@atomu.ath.cx:6872/

And for a conventional FTP client it's:

address: atomu.ath.cx
port: 6872
username: ast
password: ast

Enable Passive / PASF mode if your client allows it.

Cool! Thanks for letting us know!

Well I seem to be logging in fine, but the listing is not comming up. wierd

Hmm, you're right. For some reason passive mode doesn't work now, but everything works with passive mode disabled (active mode). Try disabling passive or PASF mode.

I could connect successfully both with active and passive modes, but both of them failed with a simple ls

I have yet to uderstand what causes the "no route to host", but I don't see how it could come from my side

[fafner]

If you want I can get the entire comminucation between the 2 computers

[Anapan]

Hmm, still some problems I see...
I suspect it's a problem with the router again, because I don't have any problems with other computers on the lan but looking through the logs most people can't get a directory listing.
I'll spend some time and work it out tomorrow. I keep detailed logs so I'll post the other half of the communication with the server if I run into a dead end and need some help.

[fafner]

I did a complete trace, out of curiosity. I think I ran accross the problem by pure chance, by watching a packet that didn't catch my eye the first time: an ARP packet asking for 192.168.1.101 . My internal network is 192.168.1.x , but I have no computer with that address, so why would my computer issue such a request? :huh: The answer is simple: it came from the ftp application. And since the IP seems to appear in the text I have posted here recently, I think the conclusion is obvious

[Anapan]

Right you are!
I checked through my router's settings and it all seemed okay, so I checked the ftp server's doccumentation and found that I had put my real ip address and the one my router assigned my main computer in the wrong places on one screen.

Could someone try to access a file and let me know how it goes?

[fafner]

It still doesn't work. When I try to use passive mode, sometimes the connection is refused, sometimes the connection has a timeout. Looks like a firewall problem. ftp tries to connect to your computer using port 57428 after using the command PASV :huh:
If I don't use passive mode, the connection always does a timeout.
