Hi,

I installed proftpd-1.2.1 downloaded from sunfreeware.
I am able to login to my solaris 8 server and upload only small files below 100KB, but not able to upload larger files.
Does not seems to do anything while I transfer large files, any setting I need to do. Here is my proftpd.conf.

Also I have similar problem wiht openSSH 3.6. My ssh works fine but SFTP timesout.
Any pointer greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot

# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use. It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login. It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.

ServerType standalone

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections

Group nogroup

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.

Also one more thing I forgot to mention. In my cute FTP client I get this message
&quot;350 Restarting at 0. Send STORE or RETRIEVE to initiate transfer.&quot;
