Hello I have an weird problem in VSFTPD anonymous connection. How in earth I fix this error message: 425 Failed to establish connection. System status before that seems to be ok. Here is part of the log (client's IP addres is removed by improving the security): ### LAST ANONYMOUS LOGIN ATTEMPT ### FTP command: Client "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "USER anonymous" OK LOGIN: Client "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", anon password "<no_password>" FTP response: Client "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "230 Login successful."

FAIL DOWNLOAD: Client "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx", "/pub/hello.txt", 0.00Kbyte/sec ### END ### And what I'm trying to do here: I've started the Apache server, which reads from the SQL database an URL (whis is in this case a ftp based), and creates the url-link to that address. Everything else goes fine, but this is not working. Why? I'm trying to find answers from Google and some issue was modifying the SELinux targeting policies. I've read the vsftpd.conf manuals quite long time now and not figuring out where is the problem. I've done an directory permissions to ftp and that was not the answer. I've checked out that the firewall settings are correct - they are. What am I missing in here? Regards, Jarkko Elfving
