Re: [webmin-l] FTP Access

[SignRite <sig...@ho...>]

Ok, the FTP server was not started, I went to boot/shutdown in system and
made it boot on startup, now its starting on boot all the time nps.

So i removed all virtual users, and started fresh, added one user (no
errors) but i try to ftp in and get :

500 Sorry, no server available to handle request on 192.168.1.141

ERROR:> Syntax error, command unrecognized.

(i took a wee peak to make sure proFTPd was started still and it is looking
ok)

I still get same error when trying to login to ftp, i also noticed when
creating a virtual server i see this :

      Setup IP-based virtual FTP? Not available


Rather than  yes/no option

maybe above has nothing at all to do with proftp? but thaught I would show
that it says 'Not available'
