425 unable to build data connection

Post by john2010 »

Can I have help with this, I really want this to work.

I'm have root access to all...so if I need to edit any files, just lemme know what.

I'm using an active FTP connection.

Linux server / ProFTP

I'm able to login fine, but always get the

425 unable to build data connection


error.

If I try passive mode , I get "operation timed out" every time.

My server's always been setup as Active mode for FTP. Maybe I should try to set it up as Passive... ? Is it difficult ? I dunno which files to edit.

any help is much appreciated.

What IP is available for PASV (passive mode)? It must be external address and not internal such as 10.0.xx.xx or 192.168.xx.xx
