Ftp backup cant work

[nabbello]

Hello guys, i need your help. I just cron a ftp backup to a external ftp service, all days.
But i have this error. I use csf firewall and already opened ftp passive port 30000:36000.

Data connection timed out.
Data connection timed out.
Data connection timed out.
Falling back to PORT instead of PASV mode.
Transfer failed. Check the path value. (error=3)
FTP information invalid.

What can i do?

Thanks

opened ftp passive port 30000:36000.

Hello,

Are you sure your FTP server uses them as passive ports?

Is the issue resolved if you disable CSF/LFD?

 

[nabbello]

yes, but i added that ports, i just added 30000:36000

Where? tcp ougoing? tcp incoming? or both?

 

[nabbello]

and what dmesg shows if you grep it against your remote server ip?

i have external backup ftp server, only ftp service, i just reinstalled csf now but still i got this error

If CSF blocks connections you should see in logs what ports it blocks. So what dmesg (or system log) shows if you grep it against your remote server ip?
