Why entering passive mode FTP, both with proftp/pureftp - all accounts

[pingo]

Does anyone know why this is suddenly happening on one of my servers? Noone can connect via ftp - pureftp is enabled in WHM - I tried switching to proftp but the problem continues. I also update cpanel, restarted the ftp service but that didn't help. It doesn't matter what ftp program is used to connect so it is some server wide problem. Hope that someone here knows how and where to fix this problem.

Thanks
John

I'm also having this problem. Passive mode has to be set as 'on' for clients to connect via ftp.

What is Passive mode? I do not see this feature on my WHM.

I'm not sure how to turn passive mode off on PUREFTP but I think it can be done through SSH.
