Anonymous FTP

[AbeFroman]

Hi,

I uploaded some test files and check
Allow anonymous access to ftp://ftp.abeshosting.com/tr&
Allow anonymous upload to ftp://ftp.abeshosting/incoming/tr&

But they dont show up in the incoming directory, but why?

Is this dealing with an account on a shared IP address, or an account with a unique IP ?

Are you viewing these through explorer or via an actual FTP command line session? (or another gui FTP client?)

Sounds like this is probably related to explorer & proftpd not being able to work together on a name-base virtually hosted ftp site.....

need more details though.

hi,

I am using wsftp on a unique ip

Thanks for you help

 

[feanor]

Strange.
That should work fine-

Do you have an overlapping FTP server virtual host in your proftpd.conf, for that particular IP, on the server in question?

When you connect to the FTP site does it show the domain intended as the ftp server host name?
