@win,
For Kloxo, you need to enable the ftp server because by default it was disabled.
Go to /etc/xinetd.d/pureftp
disable = yes to No
# service xinetd restart
# service iptables restart
# service firewall restart (add your firewall name, like csf or apf)
Make sure the port number should be enabled in firewall or iptable
none of the command above worked for me, I am using kloxo-MR ,
another problem, I have also changed pure-ftp default port to 2121 , but 21 is the only port working.
.any Idea ??
