[Proftpd-user] Internet Explorer connecting problem

[Nathan W. <mut...@so...>]

Hey all,

I'm having trouble connecting to my FTP server using Internet 
Explorer. Normally I wouldn't care about IE, but I'm making this for 
users that don't know how to use anything else and it would be a big 
pain to teach anything else.

I can connect to the server using anything else: mozilla, netscape, 
ws_ftp, command prompt in windows, and just plain console. They all 
work fine, just not IE.

I've messed with the FTP settings in IE, but nothing works.

I'm running ProFTPd 1.2.8 on FreeBSD 4.9.

Here is my proftpd.conf:


ServerName                      "Nahun's FreeBSD FTP Server"
ServerType                      inetd
DefaultServer                   on

# Port 21 is the standard FTP port.
Port                            21


# Umask 022 is a good standard umask to prevent new dirs and files
# from being group and world writable.
Umask                           022


# Set the user and group under which the server will run.
User                            nobody
Group                           nogroup

# To cause every FTP user to be "jailed" (chrooted) into their home
# directory, uncomment this line.

DefaultRoot ~/ftpfiles

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.


<Directory />
  AllowOverwrite                on

  <Limit ALL>
        DenyAll
  </Limit>


  <Limit READ WRITE DIRS>
        AllowAll
  </Limit>

</Directory>

<Limit LOGIN>
        AllowUser bob
        AllowUser fred
        DenyAll
</Limit>
