secure FTP

Post by aenigmainc »

i had a problem when using filezilla FTP to download a bunch of data files from my ftp server.

I'm setup to use TLS and after awhile I get the following error: Unable to build data connection: Operation not permitted.

After researching this I believe the fix is to add TLSOptions AllowClientRenegotiations NoCertRequest NoSessionReuseRequired to the proftpd.conf file. However when i do this, then restart the process the configuration gets deleted from the file. Any way we can get this added by default.

i created a second proftpd2.conf and pointed the S50 file in the init.d folder at it and got it to stop resetting so i've kind of fixed it but now i'm getting 37 and 110 gnutls errors.

It appears that I've fixed the 110 and 37 GNUTLS errors by adding TLSRenegotiate none to the config file.

So, these two lines in a new config file:

TLSOptions NoCertRequest AllowClientRenegotiations NoSessionReuseRequired
TLSRenegotiate none

Then modifying the init.d file to point at the new config file fixed my filezilla problems.

Hi
This seems to me to be more a workaround to an existing bug than a feature request.
What are you using here : ftps, or sftp (with admin account) ?

you are correct. its a workaround to a bug. But i couldn't find an appropriate place for it. so i figured if Microsoft can call a bug a feature, then maybe asustor can too.

i'm using "Require explicit FTP over TLS" in Filezilla. so FTPES
