olajideolaolorun Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 You have to set it in the FTP programs configuration, exempt it in Windows Firewall and any other firewall programs, and also set the FTP client to connect to it using that port. If the client does not have a place for you to put the port, use the port at the end of the address.

AoN Posted June 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 I have already made the exemptions in the firewalls, and I have put it in the URL in IE. It either times out or says it can not connect. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnorris Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Try this --->Just leave it port 21 on the server side, and make up a port on your router ie:2001 and port forward 2001 -21 on your ftp machine.. Should work I have done it many times.... ftp://you@yourhost.com:your port...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Why are you even using IE? use a real FTP Client like WS FTP. Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 I'm using IE because it is basic, and it rarely errors out on me. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Try what jnorris said.... also, make sure you are setting the port in the FTP Server itself... which one are you using? FTP Server or SlimFTPd? Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 I'm using the same one I've been using since I first made this thread, Quick 'n Easy FTP Server. I have tired his suggestion, and it errored with a timeout error everytime. As for the port in the program, I have already confirmed that it is there. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer!

olajideolaolorun Posted June 16, 2006 Report Share Posted June 16, 2006 Make sure that Windows Firewall is not blocking the program... Add the program itself to the exemption list...

AoN Posted June 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 It still didn't work. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 I really dont know what the problem is from here. Only way is to see your PC or enter it to debug it.... Or your host is blocking all ports period. Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 I don't think so, as I can access the sites with the http protocol on port 81. As for entering my PC, you can try as you wish, but, I'm warned when there is an unauthorized entry outside of standard access ports. In other words, use ports like 80, 81, etc., and you'll get in...

MrX Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) I don't think it would be "unauthorized" if we were to enter your PC to help you solve your problem. Anyway, how are you accessing your FTP Server, via localhost (127.0.0.1), your LAN IP (if you have one) or your Internet IP address? If you're accessing it via your Internet IP, is your firewall blocking connections from your PC to the port you're running your FTP Server on?

AoN Posted June 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 I have tried ftp://us.defranks.net:port/, where the sub-domain as an A Record to my public IP address, the IP address that must be accessed to few data on my PC from another computer network. I have also tried the localhost, the localhost IP, and my individual network IP address, and none of them have worked. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer!

MrX Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Why don't you use another FTP Server? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I have no idea... ^^' I'll give it a shot in a few hours, when I'm not so tired. I've been going through a VERY extensive script of a friends of mine, and correcting the errors and bug. After seven hours, I'm only half done...sad... Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer!

MrX Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 (edited) Try FileZilla or SlimFTPd. FileZilla = GUI while SlimFTPd = CLI, if I remember correctly. Uniform Server has an old SlimFTPd plugin, I think you should still be able to use its config file with the latest version. Olajide tried FileZilla a while ago, it had some problems serving subst drives (in this case W:\), but well, that was a while ago Edited June 24, 2006 by MrX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I personally dislike GUI programs/systems, so, I'm gonna try the SlimFTPd. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 IT WORKED! SlimFTPd, the plugin worked! Thank you! ^^ I had to set it to use port 2001, but it worked! Now, how do I set it up to have a secondary user//pass for the www/ folder for another user to use with a limited access? Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer!

MrX Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 (edited) Make sure you've updated your executables to the latest version. To add a new user account, you'll have to modify and add these lines to your slimftpd.conf:---------- START HERE ----------# To make a new user, just replace and with the# username and password of your choice. If no password is set, the user# will be allowed to login without a password.[/color]"> Password ""# The directive below will attach a local file system path to a virtual file system# path. In this case, it will cause all files and folders in C:\ to appear# in the server's root (/). If I remember correctly, you'll probably need to use# "C:\\" (with the double quotes), if your folder contains spaces. Mount / C:\# The next directives set permissions on paths in the virtual file system.# Valid permission tokens are Read, Write, List, Admin, or All, which indicates# all four permission types. In the example below, we'll allow Read and List# permissions for the root (/) and all folders in it. We'll also explicitly allow Write# permission for the /upload folder only (which in this example exists at# C:\\upload) and all folders beneath it.# Finally, we'll explicitly deny access of any kind to the /private folder (which would # be located at C:\\private). Allow / Read ListAllow /upload WriteDeny /private All# The D:\ below would appear in the server's root as /files.# Do note that this folder will automatically allow Read and List permissions# as it inherits the server root's permissions which are defined above. Mount /files D:\---------- END HERE ---------- Hope that helps (so we can finally close this thread, which is going to be 2 months old soon) Edited June 27, 2006 by MrX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Hey, I like my two threads. They are hot threads! I demand they be left open incase I have further problems! I'll try what you said. ^^ Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrX Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Of course they'll be left open. Olajide doesn't close threads when the problems in it are solved, so neither will I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoN Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I could only get the server to work if I gave the second user full abilities, which I don't want them to have. If I denied them even the ability to delete, it would error, saying the user can not access the folder. Quote - Hail my own banner for UniServer!

MrX Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) As I mentioned above, valid permission tokens are Read, Write, List, Admin, or All, which indicates all four permission types. In other words, All = Read Write List Admin. The permission to upload and delete or rename files should be under Write and Admin respectively.
