RE: [PLUG] Problems with Apache and FTP

["jon" <jon@jonroig.com>]

I had the same problem a few weeks ago...

Try turning PASV off on your FTP client... and yeah, open up port 20. Can
you access those services from the box itself? If not, the services might
not be running...

You can start apache from the command line by typing:
chkconfig httpd on

(I think you can also start it from the mandrake services thing... although
I'm not so sure about the ftp server.)

You can telnet into your server, or out?  Can you get a response from your
server on all three of those ports, using telnet?

Can you access your web server with your browser on the server?

Could the FTP problem have something to do with the fact that FTP uses two
ports, one for commands and one for data?  I don't claim to be the most
knowledgeable person here on this subject, it's just an idea.
