problems with ftp servers

4 New Member
Hello,

I have just been to come2linux
http://www.come2linux.org/psp/
and succesfully tried
http://www.tntnet.org/

it really works, I have also experimented with apache and it is no problem to handle a small network with 2 PCs, linux running two different instances of apache and two different instances of tntnet C++ server pages,

Also the router was tricky, through network address translation and port address translation I got it up and running with one public IP, and 4 different port numbers. Which means I can host 4 independent web sites.

I highly appreciated the perl tutorial, or database tutorial by Blair Ireland

presented on this URL
http://www.thescripts.com/serverside...ram/index.html

My problems are like this,

I can't get an ftp server correctly up an running.
not even between two PCs, on suse I used the akamai download manager to download 4gb isos for vista, with a tremendous long fine name

vista_5600.16384.060829-2230_x64fre_client-lr1cxfre_en_dvd.iso: Value too large for defined data type

I could not transfer that from one PC to the other, which i needed because of that I only have one dvd burner.

small files can be transferred,

here is the log in
[morten@localhost ~]$ ftp 192.168.0.4
Connected to 192.168.0.4.
220 linux.local FTP server (Version 6.5/OpenBSD, linux port 0.3.3) ready.
500 'AUTH GSSAPI': command not understood.
500 'AUTH KERBEROS_V4': command not understood.
KERBEROS_V4 rejected as an authentication type
Name (192.168.0.4:morten): morten
331 Password required for morten.
Password:
230- Have a lot of fun...
230 User morten logged in.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

I know how to use put and get, but would highly appreciate an ftp tutorial, which also discusses the topics about when I have a router and only one public IP. I have applied for an url name by dyndns, but got no reply, each time I restart I have a different IP address and have to call up a friend to verify that it is still working.

It was impossible for me to use the vsftp or very secure ftp server.
Even on a class C LAN,

However I had once started solaris and put that unixbox in the DMZ,
that worked. But that is not the way it should be.

I find many texts and excellent documentation of apache, but very little useful documentation about the different ftp servers, active and passive mode.

where to start, doing ftp troubleshooting,

my linux box is suse 8.2. running on intel,

My favourite URL to this topic is here


I have read it again and again, but simply woun't work,
especially not if I attempt to transfer a vista iso of dvd size.

Any hints please ?

This is what I get when I log in from one suse linux to fedora,

I only have 192.168.0.4 # suse
and 192.168.0.6 # fedora.

I'm now running suse just to see what I can get,

However apache works, C++ server pages work,

and VoIP works reasonably well,

I also discussed the vsftp topic at an IRC channel #vsftp,
they where still not able to resolve it, so i think it must be something strange with my other configurations.

with fedora I am a beginner, 64 bits is not able to run many important 32 bit applications. possibly it is something related to my 64 bit opteron or
any new technology, even though I followed the instructions given from the fedora community, specific to 64 bit amd versions, also software applications known to work well on 32 bit pentium II does not behave the same way on a different 64 bit system with different chipsets.

If you want to rely on the results, never change a running system.
Innovations are good and most welcome, but any innovation is most likely orthogonal to uptime facts.

In other words, the cross product of innovation and uptime equals downtime.

the dot product of downtime and download equals zero.

No download can ever be done during downtime.

The semantics of download and upload is relative.

If a server is down for download it is also most likely down for upload.

If the server is up, morten is resting,
if the server is down morten is moving.

=> If the server is smart, it is running for cover.
