vsftpd problems with download
Hello,
First to say that I'm new with linux!
I have Fedora3 and have problem with vsftpd.
I have started vsftpd like standalone, and everything is working nice except downloads. I can connect, I can upload files, I can delete files on ftp server but only thing that I CAN'T do is do download filoes from vsftpd.
I have tried a lot of options, disable iptable service and so on, but when I start to download file it stops and timeout after some time!
here You can see one example of my problem:
Any help?! PLEASE
230 Login successful.
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Here comes the directory listing.
spybotsd13.exe
226 Directory send OK.
ftp: 23 bytes received in 0,00Seconds 23000,00Kbytes/sec.
ftp> mget sp*
200 Switching to ASCII mode.
mget spybotsd13.exe?
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for spybotsd13.exe (4354084 bytes)

First of all, you do get some strange mode, you should be in BINARY mode when you download anything except text-files. So try to issue command "bin" prior your download.
Second, and last, try to choose Passive mode as proposed from the ftp-server reply 200. That is done by command "pasv" if you are NOT on Windows.

still don't working!
Thanks for reply!
I'm testing download from windows PC and I have try to use binary download but nothing! I have try also with WS_ftp pro but it's same, I can connect, upload and delete files but not to download.
Also when I start to download somw file with WS_ftp pro, download starts but speed is 0,08KBps and both PC-s are on local LAN (vsftp server and second PC). Also I have to say that I have new installation of FC3 and I have tryed with default configuration file but... again I have same problem! Also I have trzed with proftpd server but it's same.
Here is vsftp.conf file maybe this will help:
# Example config file /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
#
# The default compiled in settings are fairly
paranoid. This sample file
# loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more
usable.
# Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in
defaults.
#
# READ THIS: This example file is NOT an exhaustive
list of vsftpd options.
# Please read the vsftpd.conf.5 manual page to get a
full idea of vsftpd's
# capabilities.
#
# Allow anonymous FTP? (Beware - allowed by default if
you comment this out).
anonymous_enable=NO
#
# Uncomment this to allow local users to log in.
local_enable=YES
#
# Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write
command.
write_enable=YES
#
# Default umask for local users is 077. You may wish
to change this to 022,
# if your users expect that (022 is used by most other
ftpd's)
local_umask=022
#
# Uncomment this to allow the anonymous FTP user to
upload files. This only
# has an effect if the above global write enable is
activated. Also, you will
# obviously need to create a directory writable by the
FTP user.
#anon_upload_enable=YES
#
# Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to
be able to create
# new directories.
#anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
#
# Activate directory messages - messages given to
remote users when they
# go into a certain directory.
dirmessage_enable=YES
#
# Activate logging of uploads/downloads.
xferlog_enable=YES
#
# Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from
port 20 (ftp-data).
connect_from_port_20=YES
#
# If you want, you can arrange for uploaded anonymous
files to be owned by
# a different user. Note! Using "root" for uploaded
files is not
# recommended!
#chown_uploads=YES
#chown_username=whoever
#
# You may override where the log file goes if you
like. The default is shown
# below.
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log
#
# If you want, you can have your log file in standard
ftpd xferlog format
xferlog_std_format=YES
#
# You may change the default value for timing out an
idle session.
#idle_session_timeout=600
#
# You may change the default value for timing out a
data connection.
#data_connection_timeout=120
#
# It is recommended that you define on your system a
unique user which the
# ftp server can use as a totally isolated and
unprivileged user.
#nopriv_user=ftpsecure
#
# Enable this and the server will recognise
asynchronous ABOR requests. Not
# recommended for security (the code is non-trivial).
Not enabling it,
# however, may confuse older FTP clients.
async_abor_enable=YES
#
# By default the server will pretend to allow ASCII
mode but in fact ignore
# the request. Turn on the below options to have the
server actually do ASCII
# mangling on files when in ASCII mode.
# Beware that turning on ascii_download_enable enables
malicious remote parties
# to consume your I/O resources, by issuing the
command "SIZE /big/file" in
# ASCII mode.
# These ASCII options are split into upload and
download because you may wish
# to enable ASCII uploads (to prevent uploaded scripts
etc. from breaking),
# without the DoS risk of SIZE and ASCII downloads.
ASCII mangling should be
# on the client anyway..
ascii_upload_enable=YES
ascii_download_enable=YES
#
# You may fully customise the login banner string:
ftpd_banner=Welcome to FTP
service.Warning! All Your activity will be logged!
#
# You may specify a file of disallowed anonymous
e-mail addresses. Apparently
# useful for combatting certain DoS attacks.
#deny_email_enable=YES
# (default follows)
#banned_email_file=/etc/vsftpd.banned_emails
#
# You may specify an explicit list of local users to
chroot() to their home
# directory. If chroot_local_user is YES, then this
list becomes a list of
# users to NOT chroot().
#chroot_list_enable=YES
# (default follows)
#chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list
#
# You may activate the "-R" option to the builtin ls.
This is disabled by
# default to avoid remote users being able to cause
excessive I/O on large
# sites. However, some broken FTP clients such as
"ncftp" and "mirror" assume
# the presence of the "-R" option, so there is a
strong case for enabling it.
#ls_recurse_enable=YES
pam_service_name=vsftpd
userlist_enable=YES
#enable for standalone mode
listen=YES
tcp_wrappers=YES

Ok! Did you try to force Passive Mode as well? If not, try that, can't remember exactly where in WS_FtpPRO you do set this up, but it should be somewhere in your connection configuration

Well, try this:
async_abor_enable=NO
ascii_upload_enable=NO
ascii_download_enable=NO
Then you should lock your users in their home dirs:
chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_list_file=/etc/vsftpd.chroot_list #Or some other file
And it should be wiser to run ftp server from inetd or xinetd...
I guess this is enabled by default but try this yet:
pasv_enable=YES
