FTPS and 500 Server Not Authorized Error

Post by catdrich »

We are using this for FTPS (port 990). Some users from outside the network can connect with no issues. From my home (outside the network) some of my computers work and others don't. I have turned off the firewall on the computers that don't work.

Usually the symptom is that the computers can connect, but when they try to get the directory listing they get a 500 server not authorized error. It seems like the ones behind a router are having issues. We need to know what to turn on or whatever in the firewalls, routers. For example, from my home (outside the work network), the computer that broadcasts a 98. address works, and the one that sends a 10. address (according to the Core FTP data) does not.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is PASV mode still secure? Forgive me for asking what might be an obvious question, but I am still fairly new to FTPS.
