Default Re: FTP ISSUES - One more question and I am off to save the planet!!

My guess this is on a SnapOS unit (2200).

The first one is always the hard one.

First you need to create users account and share + Guest share, using the security guide. This will make a mounting point.

Now verify that you can move files while being attached locally to the snap with the std user account.

If not reboot the server and try again. The snapos has issues on permissions with new users. Don't ask why it just does, but a reboot normally fixes the problem.

If all works with SMB you can then try the FTP. It is very picky. Remember that local firewalls can raise havic on this. If internal you need active, external passive. IE switches automaticly. FTP Clinet SW has problems.

There is a detail guide on this site somewhere. I wrote one not using the guide and Snap-tech wrote one. Do a search on FTP by user Snap-tech should find it.

Read the FAQ's on performance. FTP will give you higher speeds.
