You're in the
iis ftp
group:FTP Stopped working
iis ftp:
I can get it to work again by uninstalling it then reinstalling it. I can set it up once for anonymous access only/listed IPs only. It then works fine, but if I make changes to the configuration, eg add a new allowd IP, when I try to access it (through IE 6) it demands a logon (despite anonymous access only). It then refuses to accept anonymous logon, or any valid account. To restore access I then need to uninstall/reinstall it.
No I cannot get through using ftp.exe
I get Connected to www.somename.co.uk 530 Connection refused, unknown IP address User (www.somename.co.uk:(none)): This is with accept all IP addresses set & allow only anonymous connections. No log entries are produced, infact no log file has been produced for today for the ftp service. Regards Steve [quoted text, click to view] "Bernard" wrote:

huh ? now, try access via ftp.exe
can you login ? do a dir listing ? also post the latest ftp server log entries here. -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.tryiis.com/ http://support.microsoft.com/ http://www.msmvps.com/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "steveevets" <steveevets@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B6BA17A0-BD17-4A6D-97FB-25F9B4339346@microsoft.com... > FTP has stopped working on a win 2003 server. > I can get it to work again by uninstalling it then reinstalling it. > I can set it up once for anonymous access only/listed IPs only.

Hi Thanks for the reply.
I pointed out that this was with no IP address restrictions. This is the way the FTP server is responding... as if it is still blocking IPs even when I have told it not to. This has been a repeatable phenomena on two machines, but I think that it might have been caused by security patch installation. This is just a feeling, because I don't use FTP very often. It was working fine for 6 months on three machines. It went wrong sometime after I installed the following patches KB824151 KB840987 KB841356 KB885881 KB834707 Putting the latest patches KB885836 KB885835 on the machines one by one with an uninstall/reinstall of FTP seems to have fixed the problem. Seems unlikely, but as I say the problem suddenly appeared on each machine after I changed the list of allowed IPs. The problem was repeatable. The problem has now gone away. If you have any thoughts on this I'd love to know them, otherwise thanks for your time. Regards Steve [quoted text, click to view] "steveevets" wrote:

Well, according to the response. the IP is not accepted.
I would suggest you remove all IP restriction, then try to connect again, check the ftp log file of the connected client's IP address. then recreate the IP restriction and exclude that client ip address. -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.tryiis.com/ http://support.microsoft.com/ http://www.msmvps.com/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "steveevets" <steveevets@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7F1C8E30-2A1E-4E9F-96A7-ECEA6DCE197A@microsoft.com... > No I cannot get through using ftp.exe > I get > > Connected to www.somename.co.uk > 530 Connection refused, unknown IP address > User (www.somename.co.uk:(none)): > > This is with accept all IP addresses set & allow only anonymous > connections. > No log entries are produced, infact no log file has been produced for > today > for the ftp service. > > Regards > Steve > > > "Bernard" wrote: > >> huh ? now, try access via ftp.exe >> can you login ? do a dir listing ? >> also post the latest ftp server log entries here. >> >> >> -- >> Regards, >> Bernard Cheah >> http://www.tryiis.com/ >> http://support.microsoft.com/ >> http://www.msmvps.com/bernard/ >> >> >> >> "steveevets" <steveevets@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:B6BA17A0-BD17-4A6D-97FB-25F9B4339346@microsoft.com... >> > FTP has stopped working on a win 2003 server. >> > I can get it to work again by uninstalling it then reinstalling it. >> > I can set it up once for anonymous access only/listed IPs only.

I cannot test futher because all available machines are no longer showing the
symptoms. I don't know what caused it, but it was repeatable. FTP is now working fine. I am confident that it was not a firewall/ipsec/port filtering problem because these things were not changed. I'm going to have to drop it now that it has gone away because I have not got the machines available to try & get the problem to come back. Thanks for your time.

I have not see this related to any security patches. Do you have any
firewall in place ? ISA ? how many ftp sites you have ? when the connection is block by IP restriction, it will not be logged in the ftp log file. (i think this is just wrong :), how would I know that there are someone trying to connect if it's not logged?) let's try again. once you have temporary disabled all IP restriction list. restart ftp service. then try to connect via ftp.exe again. -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.tryiis.com/ http://support.microsoft.com/ http://www.msmvps.com/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "steveevets" <steveevets@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:CB719452-DFA9-4518-9C7C-1D41C7ACD438@microsoft.com... > Hi Thanks for the reply. > > I pointed out that this was with no IP address restrictions. > This is the way the FTP server is responding... as if it is still blocking > IPs even when I have told it not to. > > This has been a repeatable phenomena on two machines, but I think that it > might have been caused by security patch installation.

:) mm.... maybe the IP restriction wasn't 'refreshed' at the time you
test... -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.tryiis.com/ http://support.microsoft.com/ http://www.msmvps.com/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "steveevets" <steveevets@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E025FC37-3720-4CBE-9A86-DDBFD4390591@microsoft.com... >I cannot test futher because all available machines are no longer showing >the > symptoms. > I don't know what caused it, but it was repeatable. > FTP is now working fine. > I am confident that it was not a firewall/ipsec/port filtering problem > because these things were not changed. > I'm going to have to drop it now that it has gone away because I have not > got the machines available to try & get the problem to come back. > > Thanks for your time. > Regards > > Steve > > "Bernard" wrote: > >> I have not see this related to any security patches.
