ProFTPD: 421 No Transfer Timeout (300 Seconds): Closing Control Connection
Since moving servers I've been plagued by constant disconnects whilst using FTP:
421 No transfer timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection
I've gone through Proftpd's forum and documentation numerous times to try and find a solution to this but have been unsuccessful so far.
Within proftpd's config file it's set at:
TimeoutLogin 120
TimeoutIdle 3600
TimeoutNoTransfer 3600
TimeoutStalled 3600
So I am unsure where it is getting the "300 seconds" from.
Even though the error states 300 seconds, this problem happens way before 300 seconds every time and has happened during the transfer of files (when the connection has been active and in use).
I've tried 3 different FTP clients and used the "Keep Alive" option in each and it has absolutely no effect.
I am unsure if APF is causing the problem, I can't see any problems in any of the server logs in relation to ftp.

Proftpd Timeout Connection Attempt Failed
Currently having a problem with proftpd on my centos plesk 8.1 server. During large uploads, lets say around 10 MB the FTP connection fails within 5 minutes or so saying: "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond." I have asked for help from my server provider but they have tried and are now unable to help. I currently have the APF firewall in my server. Has anyone experienced this?

Sending Email Cpanel :: SMTP Command Timeout On Connection
i have this weird problem of emails not gettign delivered and i am hosting with theplanet. Every email is sitting on the queue and not delivered. i checked with dnsreport and it says Timed out [Last data sent: [Did not connect]] and my exim_mainlog shows R=dk_lookuphost defer (-1): host lookup did not complete 2008-06-03 04:49:59 SMTP command timeout on connection i have restarted exim, checked firewall and still i am unable to fix my problem! update: i again checked with dnsreport and my nameservers are failing NS FAIL NS A timeout occurred getting the NS records from your nameservers! None of your nameservers responded fast enough. They are probably down or unreachable. I can't continue since your nameservers aren't responding. If you have a Watchguard Firebox, it's due to a bug in their DNS Proxy, which must be disabled (31 Jul 2006 UPDATE: several years after being informed of this, there is a rumor that there is a fix that allows the Watchguard DNS proxy to work).

Can I Transfer A Site From CPanel Backups To Dedicated With No Control Panel
I am planning on moving to a dedicated server from my current shared host. In my cpanel i have the options: Generate/Download a Full Backup Download a home directory Backup Download a MySQL DB Backup Download Alias/Filter Backup I suppose a "Full Backup" would be ideal. But are these backup files only restorable by cpanel, or can I use them to successfully migrate my entire site to the dedicated server? It's running Debian with no control panel. I could install a free one if necessary.

Cronjob Every X Seconds
to set up a serious of scheduled tasks. For example at 9:35:12 PM I would need a php script to run. And its very important that it run at the 12 second mark for the 35th minute. This seems like an application for a cronjob. Anyway, it looks like you can only have cronjobs run every minute, not seconds.

Closing Mysql Connections
from what I view, wait_timeout is used for disconnecting connections. However, it applies to tcp/ip connection only. So, in my database connection, if I am using mysql server as localhost, that variable is not applied? In that case, how can I close connections automatically after xxx seconds?

i have a small cluster (one web and one db) setup and i host a rather popular group of 4-5 sites that allow users to dynamicly create their own mobile chat communitys automaticly. each site gets its own mysql db created and populated automaticly. this is all fine, but in the last 24hours weird things have begun happening, previously i had the sql max_connections set to 500 and this was perfectly adquate for the demand but now even when i set the connection to 4000+ they are all maxxed out within 5-10 minutes, and mysql processlist shows thousands of unauthenticated user connections sitting at login status, i have gone through the sites and all their mysql configs are fine so i cant see what the issue is. server specs below db server: dual amd opteron 246 8GB ram 120gb hd(64gb free) 33gb swap (rarly used but their for emergencys) centos 5 64bit. direct 100mbit lan to web serv only mysql,ssh and webmin running, no other apps installed web server: amd athlon 64 3800+ plesk 9.2.1 4gb ram 2x120gb hds apache status onthe web server only shows 120ish http connections but the sql keeps climbing

Server Crashes Every 600 Seconds
Today, I put a new server on our racks. Problem: the machine crashes exactly every 10 minutes. The crash occurs with no entry on the logs and with 0.00 load. It is as if someone take out the current every 10 minutes. Here are the specs: - 2 CPU Intel Xeon 2.0 - 8 Gb RAM ECC - 2 x 250 Gb HDs This machine needs plenty of current. I wonder if I am not going over the rack power quota. May be there is a system to allow overages for then 10 minutes, then it cut back the current to the rack quota.

Squid Frontend Gives 0 Network Output For Seconds At The Time
I have an apache server on windows which I wanted to speed up using caching systems. I tried installing squid, and I got it working with a basic example config. It seemed to work well, however under more heavy load I experienced some weird behaviour where network output is 0 for several seconds at the time, and all clients just hang in the wind and wait for a respons. Remote to the server is working fine, so it's definitely a squid issue.. with only apache running the server is constantly sending out data, no halts there. Any hints on what errors I should be looking for?

Server Load > 300 (only Apache)
I have two servers, one for apache hosting a vbulletin forum, and another one for hosting its database. Sometimes, I get very high load on the Apache server (>300) and the server stops responding. As a result, I have to stop apache in order to reduce the load and then start it again. when I query the number of online users using this command: Code: netstat -an | grep : 80 | wc -l I get about 1500 to 2000 but in the forum statistics, the number of online users is more than 5000. I already made sure that there are no DoS or DDoS attacks. This is the specs of my apache server: CPU: GenuineIntel Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.40GHz RAM: 2 GB Server OS: CentOS 4.4 Apache Version: 1.3.37 and here is my httpd.conf: Code: ServerType standalone Timeout 15 KeepAlive On MaxKeepAliveRequests 200 KeepAliveTimeout 15 MinSpareServers 10 MaxSpareServers 15 StartServers 10 MaxClients 500 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 Is there anyway by which I can optimize my server for better performance and less load?

Firewall - 300 USD Max
know of any hardware firewall (or suggest) which is under 300 USD and can protect around 5 servers with a total bandwidth capacity of 100 (+/-) Mbps. I am really no security expert Of course, it should have web based management, online documentation (not really needed) and something special for prevent DoS attacks automatically (really fed up of them). If possible if you can link me directly to an online store that can ship it Internationally / Europe?

Where Is The Best Place To Put 300 Permanent Redirects
I have spend 6 hours in the last 24hrs hand coding 300 lines of Permanent Redirects. I am moving my site from flat file (PHP with includes) to Drupal. I was going to drop it into the .htaccess file but am wondering if there is a more efficient place to put it since this is permanent. Should it go into the httpd file/Virtual host file, will cPanel over-ride that file?

ProFTPd
This isn't a major problem but I was just wondering something regarding how ProFTPd functions. I have received a complaint about a user uploading a script, the script creating files and directories, and the user not being able to CHMOD, delete, rename, or do anything to these files. When files are created through scripts on my server, they are given a default owner permission with "www-data" for the user and group. Since ProFTPd is set up to only modify files on certain owner permissions according to the user's FTP access, ProFTPd will not allow any other owner permission and if any other owner permissions exist, ProFTPd will not allow those files to be modified or changed in anyway. Is there a way to fix this? I've been trying to figure it out but I can't. Just for note, I am using proftpd-mysql and so every user is linked through a MySQL database.

ProFTPD Security

Here's my config sample; Quote: # This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to # 'proftpd.conf' for actual use. It establishes a single server # and a single anonymous login.

Port21 # Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files # from being group and world writable. Umask022 # To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes # to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections # at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works # in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server # that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service # (such as xinetd).

Mysql_mod Missing For ProFTPD
Trying to install ProFTPD with mysql, the problem is after installing it and adding the lines in the config file to use MySQL the service fails to start. The error Im getting is: "unknown configuration directive 'SQLAuthTypes'" So it seems like it doesnt recongize the function needed to use mysql with proftpd, which is in mysql_mod.c. I did proftpd -l and the mysql_mod.c was not listed, I did a search on the whole box and couldnt find mysql_mod anywhere. Im on Fedora Core 6 and tried to install proftpd with yum: yum install proftpd proftpd-mysql Do I have to compile from source to get this to work? Or did I miss installing something else that would have mysql_mod.c present? I currently have mysql installed and running, tested the login info I had in the config file and everything works on the mysql side.Silly

ProFTPd To Windows Over SAMBA
We've got a Linux box running ProFTPd reaches a Windows box over SAMBA. This works very well but when the client has a great number of files, the FTP Windows-based FTP clients they use don't always give accurate directory listings (if any at all). I know there's some bug in the way SAMBA works with Windows File Sharing but I don't know what the magic file number is that, when reached, prevents a proper directory listing. Does anyone know what this magic number is or if there's an available, tested fix for this?

so I got OpenSSL 0.9.8k up and installed, no issued: Quote: # openssl OpenSSL> version OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009 OpenSSL> Rebuilt cURL (and then php), httpd and proftpd but all of them are still linking to the older libraries for some reason Quote: # curl -V curl 7.19.4 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.4 OpenSSL/0.9.8g zlib/1.2.3 Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http https ftps Features: IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz Quote: [Tue Apr 14 00:11:03 2009] [notice] Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.8g DAV/2 PHP/5.2.9 Apache configured -- resuming normal operations Quote: Starting proftpd: - mod_tls/2.2.1: compiled using OpenSSL version 'OpenSSL 0.9.8i 15 Sep 2008' headers, but linked to OpenSSL version 'OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007' library proftpd has its own set of issues obviously built with i headers and linked to g headers. Any ideas wtf I did? I recomplined and restarted everything. I removed the g and i libraries completely. OpenSSH seems happy and nothing is actually "wrong", the server is working fine but I'm really anal retentive this way...it's kinda how I feel "safer" at the OS level.

ProFTPd :: Set Group And Permissions
Currently I have Umask 027 The problem is, how do I get the group to be set as apache on a file/dir upload? I really do not like having other permissions set, as it can be a security risk, allowing others to access someone else's files. Another issue is, I can't remove privileges, but I can add them. copy of proftpd.conf: Code: ServerName "FTP" ServerType standalone Port 21 PassivePorts 35000 35999 UseReverseDNS off TimesGMT off TimeoutLogin 120 TimeoutIdle 600 TimeoutNoTransfer 900 TimeoutStalled 3600 #MaxCients 20 "Sorry, the maximum number of allowed users are already connected (%m)" #MaxClientsPerHost 2 #MaxClientsPerUser 2 MaxConnectionsPerHost 6 "Sorry, you may not have more then 6 connections open at a time" MaxHostsPerUser 6 "Sorry, you may not connect more than 6 times" ScoreboardFile /var/run/proftpd/proftpd.pid TransferLog /var/log/proftpd/xferlog.legacy LogFormat default "%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b" LogFormat auth "%v [%P] %h %t "%r" %s" LogFormat write "%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b" #DON'T modify this log format.

ProFTPd - Login Via SFTP Only? Using Webmin
I have installed ProFTPd through Webmin onto Ubuntu 8.10 Server edition. I can connect to ProFTPd via FTP on Port 21 no problem, but currently am unable to via SFTP (using WinSCP). I would like to block all FTP access on Port 21 and only make it only possible to connect via SFTP/SSH on Port 22.

Debian + Plesk + Proftpd Fails
My Plesk version is 8.2 and i use debian 3.1, I check the instructions on [url] this faq, it seems added in both inetd configuration file and xinetd.d configuration file in my configuration, also xinetd is working through system but ftp cannot be connectable. It gives "Unable to login server" from remote client and i also check with command line ftp client and service says that "421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection" I also check this [url] faq and port is open: Quote: Starting nmap 3.81 [url] at 2007-08-02 16:59 CEST Interesting ports on xx-server.xxxxxx.net (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): PORT STATE SERVICE 21/tcp open ftp Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.013 seconds Is there anyone knows how could I solve this situation?

Proftpd Config - How To Make Directory Have Read/write Access
Followed the guide over at [url]to get proftpd setup. It only lists ways to create a single upload directory and a single download directory. Tried all possible ways to get a directory creating allowing read/write but so far unsuccessful. how this can be acheived? Here is my current config. #start of config <Directory /home/FTP-shared> Umask 022 022 AllowOverwrite off <Limit MKD STOR DELE XMKD RNRF RNTO RMD XRMD> DenyAll </Limit> </Directory> <Directory /home/FTP-shared/download/*> Umask 022 022 AllowOverwrite off <Limit MKD STOR DELE XMKD RNEF RNTO RMD XRMD> DenyAll </Limit> </Directory> <Directory> /home/FTP-shared/upload/> Umask 022 022 AllowOverwrite on <Limit READ RMD DELE> DenyAll </Limit> <Limit STOR CWD MKD> AllowAll </Limit> </Directory> #end of config /home/FTP-shared/read-write is the folder I want to be able to read and write data to.
