i am trying to make my ftp server accessible (for download only) by other computers on my LAN using anonymous user and without password, when i connect to it from the same pc using filezilla it works well but when trying from other PCs on the LAN it says
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error: Could not connect to server
iam using Ubuntu 11.04 and this is my configuration:
vsftpd.conf :
anon_root=/home/ftp
no_anon_password=YES
listen=YES
anonymous_enable=YES
local_enable=NO
write_enable=NO
anon_upload_enable=NO
anon_mkdir_write_enable=NO
dirmessage_enable=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
connect_from_port_20=YES
chown_uploads=YES
ftpd_banner=Welcome to blah FTP service.
secure_chroot_dir=/var/run/vsftpd
pam_service_name=vsftpd
rsa_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/vsftpd.pem
the directory /home/ftp permission:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2012-02-04 19:39 ftp
i think since it says "connection established" there is no problem with the iptables right? and the selinux is not installed either! i have lost many hours on this problem :'( !! any help please..
