proftd timeout

[DuncanMcLord]

Hi,

i am trying to use the Dreamweaver &Sync& feature on one of my sites, but i always end up with a connection timeout.
I already set the proftpd connection time to its max, but it still doesn't work.
The problem is, that the site needs about 10-15 minutes just to check for updates and once its finished, the timeout occurs.

Any ideas about this issue?

Thanks

What's your TimeoutNoTransfer and TimeoutIdle settings?

As moronhead said, login to your server via ssh, open up /etc/proftpd.conf and add this line (if not already there)

TimeoutNoTransfer 1800

Adjust to the number of seconds as needed. The setting above will allow you to connect in idle for 30 minutes without timing out.

This is not a TimoutNoTransfer issue. He is having problems connecting with dreamweaver in the first place. It is a reverse and indent lookup that is causing the problem. Do a search on proftpd and reverse lookup, or ftp and reverse look up and you will find the answer, I blieve.
