Guest LH91325 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 The first thing you should do is ping your server to determine if you have TCP/IP connectivity. If no, fix the connectivity problem. If yes, move on to the next step. You said you tried to connect "tru cmd and got error." I presume you mean command line FTP? What error? Doesn't help to say you got an error without saying what it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boen_robot 107 Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 Can you access the FTP server from the Windows Server computer itself?If so, it's a networking issue...If not... when you setted up the FTP, did you used "Virtual Host Names"? What did you set your SSL setting too?You must explicitly say "No SSL" (if you have 2008 R2) or "Allow SSL" (if you have 2008), unless you actually have an SSL certificate. By default, the SSL setting is "Require SSL", which if you don't have a certificate renders the FTP unusable.As for the "Virtual Host Names"... if you've specified one, your FTP username needs to be changed to "virtualhostname|username". If not, it should be just "username". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

boen_robot 107 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Like I said As for the "Virtual Host Names"... if you've specified one, your FTP username needs to be changed to "virtualhostname|username". If not, it should be just "username". The error message suggests that's the problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

boen_robot 107 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Check your "FTP Authorization" rules. Perhaps you haven't added your username (or group) to the list of allowed usernames. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
razstec 0 Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 iv added the username to a user group and the all have permissions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boen_robot 107 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Also make sure that user has privileges on the file system itself.Go to the home folder's properties, and check the "Security" tab. Add full permissions to this user if you want to be sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LH91325 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Configuration problem with FTP server. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
razstec 0 Posted May 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 the user and the group of that user have full permission on server and system. could the problem be because i didnt had a domain name, only ip address? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boen_robot 107 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 It can't be that. FTP works without involving DNS in any way.There is only one possible problem I can think of - active vs. passive mode. But trying to solve this without knowing it's the cause can render your server fully inaccessible, so let's first be sure about that:From the server itself, can you access the FTP on the server? That is, from its command prompt, if you type ftp localhost and then enter the username and password, do you connect successfully, or does that message occur even at that point?

Guest So Called Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 It looks to me like the OP is connecting via an IP address, that the FTP client has connected to the FTP server ("220 Microsoft FTP Service"). I can't quite tell what happens after that because too much is blotted out. OP are you using a response script or are you entering username and password manually? If not the latter then try that.

razstec 0 Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 from the server i can connnect tru ftp with cmd but with another pc in the same network i cant. im using a response script. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest So Called Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 1. Your network router may not be configured to allow connections between PCs. You should PING your ftp server from the other computer to establish TCP/IP connect ability. 2. Temporarily forget the script and try manually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
razstec 0 Posted May 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 the ping returns everything, there is a connection. login failed, user canot login but when i do it in the server pc it connects fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
justsomeguy 1,135 Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Is the problem that it cannot connect or that you connect but cannot log in? Those are 2 different problems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
razstec 0 Posted May 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 its the user, even thu the user has permissions and is in a group with permission. its very strange Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boen_robot 107 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 from the server i can connnect tru ftp with cmd but with another pc in the same network i cant.But can you also login from localhost?Assuming "yes"... Try to fully disable the Windows Firewall (and/or any other AV/Firewall program you may have), just in case.im using a response script.Yeah, don't use that until you get the thing working without it.
