Issue with FTP

Hi,

I need some help with getting FTP access going please.

I have a FG60 series and a QNAP on the LAN that I want to have access going for FTP access.

I have a standard VIP setup and a Policy in place

FTP service inside the LAN works totally fine.

I have other port forwards setup fine as well, such as RDP, PPTP etc...

 

I am getting the following error message from FileZilla: Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead.

 

I just can;t see where/how/why its not working, going crazy.

 

EDIT on this - I am trying to do FTP over TLS, not pure unencrypted  FTP - sorry for any confusion.

 

Thankyou so much, Scott

Is it a one-4-one NAT? What happening if you run pasv in debug, the server is giving an address that's not  recognizable by the  ftp-client  and probably is the internal address.

 

Do a debug  on the client compute the given address.? Fix up  the    ftp session between server and client

One published 'solution' is to disable the FTP session helper.

Hi,

 

update on this, I have fixed it.

 

I had to change the settings in Security Profiles -> SSl Inspection to FULL SSL Inspection and then select FTPS as per the attached image.
