hi

I have vsftpd server installed on linux.

the problem is, since 13.Sep I don't get any files from the remote server.

here is the log file of my vsftpd server:

the remote server 192.168.1.11 seems to connect, but it doesn't transfer any files.

what does it mean exactly

* c

or

* i

on the end of this log file ?

Awstats describes the fields like this:

LogFormat="%time3 %other %host %bytesd %url %other %other %method %other %logname %other %code

Now, that the code means I cannot find. Ayway, what is the error that you get at the client side? Do you have free disk space? Firewall in the middle?

this problem should be solved now.

the group and the permissions of the transfer directory was changed and cannot understand why.

why the group of the transfer directory was plugdev ?

the remote server couldn't send any files.

I've done security patches and maybe this is a reason.

I changed the group from plugdev to the root and set permissions for the ftp user.
now it seems to work.
