Can connect and see files, but can't download or upload

Post by dparden »

I have setup a Core FTP LE 2.1 server accessible via the web. I have configured the router to allow port 21 to be forwarded to the server. I have Core FTP Lite Client on a machine that can access the web but is on a different network. When I connect via Site Manager, I get the file listing of the folder that I setup on the server and everything looks like I expected. However, I am unable to download or upload any files.

Before I setup this configuration, I tested my server/client configuration on a local network and was able to transfer files successfully, so it seems that my router config on the server's network may be suspect. However, I only get the following information from the client and I see nothing in my router logs that anything is being 'blocked'. Do I need to open/forward any ports other than 21?

The server's connection to the internet is via an EVDO router so the bandwidth is small and the latency is some what large, is it maybe some kind of timeout issue. It doesn't seem so because the failure occurs quickly and it goes through the 25 attempts I have it set to try in just 10-20 seconds. I am grasping at straws here. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I suspect something boneheaded on my part so don't be afraid to suggest the obvious.

I have encluded the client log below.
