pure-ftpd vs vsftpd: I wish to setup FTP on a OpenSUSE 10.2 workstation to receive scanned documents from a networked MFP machine which has "Scan to FTP". First I enabled pure-ftpd service with xinetd, deactivated SuSEFirewall and was able to receive scanned ftp documents in my homedir as seleced. Next I tried to enable the more secure vsftpd instead, but did't get any FTP document, even not with the FireWall deactivated. Maybe also something also has to be configured in vsftpd.conf?
SuseFirewall: I have a default SuseFirewall setup just with SSH enabled for external Zone access. My question is how configure SUSEFirewall preferably with YaST to receive FTP documents from my network scanner?
I'm using fixed IP addresses on the LAN, not DHCP. I haven't activated Firewall for the Internal zone and thought therefore everything on my LAN had access, but scanned documents don't come through. I've read FTP may need that port 20-21 both TCP and UDP in the Firewall, maybe this is for External zone only?
Do you have any relevant log message regarding the error? -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 05:17:52 up 4:17, 2.6.20-16-generic GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org
