Hi all; Having a strange problem with a 3.2-R system and FTP. The 3.2 system acts as a router/firewall for an internal 3.4-STABLE system. Haven't rebooted either machine in quite some time. The router (connected directly to the outside network) can, as of a couple days ago, no longer make FTP PORT connections on outside systems! When I FTP to a machine on my LOCAL network (through a separate network interface), everything works well. When I FTP FROM another machine on the LAN, THROUGH the router, to an outside host, everything works well. However, when I ftp from the router machine to a remote host, I can connect fine, see any relevant ftp server welcome messages, etc, etc... but something as simple as an 'ls' reports: ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful <3-4 minute delay> 425 Can't build data connection: operation timed out I'd rather not issue a reboot to this machine... I've tried stopping and restarting inetd, as well as many of my non-sandboxed daemons. ifconfig -a output looks as it did before, and other network services appear to be unaffected thus far. This is really causing problems with mirroring, though :-) Could something be happeneding with routing, here? Everything else appears to work, but I've even tried flushing my routing tables and reconstructing, but I'm still having the same symptoms. I guess if nothing resolves it, I'll try a reboot... But I *really* don't want to go that way :-) -- Ryan Thompson <ryan@sasknow.com> 50% Owner, Sysadmin SaskNow Technologies http://www.sasknow.com #106-380 3120 8th St E Saskatoon, SK S7H 0W2 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
