Re: v6r1 ftp from local network device -- MIDRANGE-L

Rob - yes I restarted ftp (end/start)
Profile has rwx & *all access to /home and their own dir, but profile limit capability-Yes
User class *user, initialmenu *signoff.

Chris,
This network has no "win" server.
It's the "i", about 40 pc's, & not one but 2 routers. Somewhere between them
is the dhcp. For DNS we point to an external at AT&T (Bellsouth set up the main router/firewall & 2nd is vpn access-they wouldn't/couldn't handle in main router. AT&T bought Bellsouth.
All users store their pc docs on the "i".
Do not have confirmation the Xerox can just write the scan to a shared drive.
I set up a share so perhaps we can drop the ftp requirement, but if ftp, have
already been told the Xerox ftp script not modifiable.
To me it sounds like packets being blocked...
The net tech is not familiar w/this network, prev guys are gone..
We are setting up for a test where I can trace what's happening.
Jim

Is there a firewall or NAT translation happening between the copier and
the iSeries? Usually when you can log in but not transfer data, you
need passive mode for passing through a firewall.

When you removed your exit program did you bounce ftp?

it's my exit pgm that logs everything it does - the data request never
getting to it. I have tried with the exit pgm in,, and also removed -- same.

Jim,

Did you check to make sure that you don't have any user-written or
3party purchased FTP exit points registered which may be blocking you?

Subject: v6r1 ftp from local network device

I am still chasing a problem with Xerox print ftp to i.
It doesn't work, but then if I vpn into their network, and use command
prompt ftp
I get connected but cannot put anything (the put immediately comes
back to ftp> and no file is received on i.
These are the ftp attributes
Initial name format . . . . . . *PATH
Initial directory . . . . . . . *HOMEDIR
Initial list format . . . . . . *UNIX

profile XEROX5 has a home dir /home/XEROX5
I can ftp from greenscreen cmd line to loopback using this profile &
transfer ok.
When I try from command prompt on pc - never get that "data

connection"

and no file. No failure in QAUDJRN. Never even see data attempt in
journal.
Nothing abnormal in joblogs.
I am going to engage the network tech in a test.
What should I be looking for to show where this is getting dropped or
blocked?
(not up to date on cume, but did bring tcp group up to current.
