PASV command unavailable due to EPSV ALL request be sent

Post by rabidsloth »

We currently have 1 live WingFTP server up and running on Ubuntu 10, this server has some NFS shares that are mounted to the server and WingFTP is controlling FTP access to these shares, this is working just fine.

We're currently installing a second WingFTP server that is going to be serving FTP access to the same shares. For testing I currently have it running with the same settings as the one that's working, but whenever a user tries to connect who should have access to one of the nfs shares, the user gets this error when they try to connect:

530 PASV command unavailable due to EPSV ALL request be sent. Please reconnect using PASV.


As a test I even cloned the current functional server, and this server gets this error as well. It almost seems as if having 2 WingFTP servers trying to serve up the same NFS shares doesn't work.

Does anyone have any experience with the error above?

Hi,

First it has no matter with two servers access the same NFS shares. The EPSV command only be available in the WingFTP 4.0.1. It is used for IPv6 compatible.

Could you please tell us which FTP client are you using?

As RFC2428 reference,
The EPSV command can be used with the argument "ALL" to
inform Network Address Translators that the EPRT command (as well as
other data commands) will no longer be used. An example of this
command follows:

EPSV<space>ALL

Upon receipt of an EPSV ALL command, the server MUST reject all data
connection setup commands other than EPSV (i.e., EPRT, PORT, PASV, et
al.).

Hi.

I'm having the same problem with transfering files to and from my server. Neither the server or the client have had configuration changes.

Regarding this, is it the client's configuration that sets the connection mode and sends the EPSV ALL command? I'm using FileZilla, and as I said, there haven't been any changes made to the connection's configuration; I just started receiving this message a few days ago.

Please try the latest version of Wing FTP Server.

Hi.

I see the latest version is 4.0.2; we're using 4.0.1 so I don't think the program version is the problem.

I'll try installing the latest version anyway, but is there something else I could check on the server's configuration to fix the problem?

Thanks in advance for your help!
