Topic: no ftp access from outside (resolved)

[Thierry Bucco]

Hi ,

I just found my problem for ftp access from outside.

so i have a linux box using e-smith server5.1.2, in public server and gateway.
I have an Ethernet card and an adsl modem (usb speedtouch).

I was unable to access to my server from outside of the LAN.

My configuration is :

Secure shell : public
Allow administrative command : yes
allow ssh access using : yes

Number of PPTP clients : 0

FTP User account access : public
FTP access limits : Normal usage

Telnet access : Private

I have to change number of PPTP clients to 1 to get access from outside.

I have the same problem. And I have the same configuration as you do. But I am getting an error:
!Receive error: Blocking call cancelled

and i have pptp set to 1

are you sure you didnt change something else too?Thierry Bucco wrote:
