Re: FTP weirdness

Okay... briefly - do you only have access to the server through the Plesk interface, or do you have root shell access? I'm pretty sure it's iptables with a GUI. With a bit of luck its even using the default Fedora location of /etc/sysconfig/iptables to store its changes and I won't have to go read up loads about Plesk. :)

ProFTPD can have it masquerade as anotehr host. So if the machine is really bdge.dodgyisp.com but you want it to look like ftp.bdge.com then you'd use masquerading. Unfortunately this knackers passive connections. If all you're doing is using ftp for admin, you probably don't need it.
