Hi, I have a strange problem. I want to connect via FTP to an ibay's files directory using non admin account. I created a user "office" and put it in a group "storage_group". Then on the ibay I selected write=group and read=group. Then I installed the Remote User Access contrib to put the user directly in the ibay's files directory. So far everything is OK... but when I try to connect with FilleZilla FTP client I recieve this:
Status: Connecting to 84.238.147.180 ...
Status: Connected with 84.238.***.***. Waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 192.168.90.1 FTP server ready

Response: SIZE
Response: 211 End
Status: Connected
Status: Retrieving directory listing...
Command: PWD
Response: 257 "/" is current directory.
Command: TYPE A
Response: 200 Type set to A
Command: PASV
Response: 227 Entering Passive Mode (192,168,90,1,129,28).
Command: LIST
This is OK, but I can't see any files, can't upload, can't download... nothing.
Then I tried with SmartFTP and it freezes about 30 seconds and then shows the files. This is the client's output:

The question is WHY? Why the first client doesen't shows anything and the second waits about 30 seconds and then shows the remote files. I have searched this forum a lot. I read about the ident problem and I enabled the 113 port in my router. Still nothing. Then I tried this:
http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=4476.msg15540#msg15540 but either I did something wrong because the different versions, either this is not the solution for me.
Please, help. I need a fast and reliable FTP server.
Thanks in advance.
