Active mode on AWS EC2

[jecampo]

Hi,

I have setup a FTP server on active mode on AWS (My test client requiere active) I have created a rule on the EC2 to allow inbound ports 20-21 custom tcp traffic but still gettin errors. What configuration is missing?

This are the errors on the server

<Date/Time> Info [Type] Message
<26-09-2023 03:44:11> FTP Session 13 181.234.214.63 admin [Error] GnuTLS error -110 in gnutls_record_recv: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.

and on the client

Response: 200 PORT command successful.
Command: MLSD
Response: 150 Starting data transfer.
Error: Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity
Error: File transfer failed
Status: Disconnected from server

What should I

[boco]

Active mode requires setting up, forwarding and opening the data port range on the client side, as well as telling the FTP client software the client's public IP. And that applies to every client accessing the FTP server.

Please read the Active mode chapter of Network Configuration.
