Re: FTP directory security setup.

More like networking issue to me, if it works internally.
What I can is that... if connection is slow or not stable between client and
server, these things happen. Best is to get network sniffer to look at
what's going on.

I had the remote site tried to download a small file that worked.
when they tried to download a large file >900 meg the get only a small
part
of the file, I think thay said 35kb (not sure about the size) but it is
the
same size for all files that they try to download.

is there a limit restriction in iis 4.0 or Xp that can be set?

TIA

Yes, you need to restart the ftp site as it cached the setting by
default.

Next, regarding the connection reset by peer. how big is the file? could
be
client or networking issue.
have you try a decent ftp client?

I'm seeing it now.
I need to stop the service not the ftp site, before the changes took
effect.

now i'm gettig "Connection reset by peer" when downloading the large
files.

Yes, just denied all then allow your ip only.
I think it logged the connecting IP as well, even they are blocked.
you seeing 530 error right ?

i'll try only the ip.
does the "deny all" restrict local ip such as 192.168.1.x? ,
if so I can test with that ip address, dlocking it and allowing it.
otherwise I need to find someone outside my network.

but to answer the questions.

yes, I do see other ip address' trying to connect.
the log shows several attempts to enter a user name and password
from
ip
address' in NY, TX, poland, etc...

NT4 :) Denied all but... should block all except those you entered.
It's been a while I look at NT4. can you just test it with ip
address,
forget about the domain name restriction first.

can you connect with that IP ? do you see other IP connecting?

the restriction took place when user connect before auth. you are
seeing
otherwise ?

I'm trying to stop hackers from trying to accessing my ftp
server.

I've tried to use the 'directory serurity' tab and "denied all"
but
the
few
users I want to access my ftp site.
I've select "denied all but" and entered the ip address of one
system
and
the domain of the other ex. "mydomain.com" stopped the ftp
server
and
restarted it.
but
i still have hackers trying to login to my ftp server.

when does the "denied all " take effect? after they login? , I
thought
it
would not respond to any request to login, unless it was in the
exceptions
list.
did I not set it up correctly or is this how the "denied all"
works?

TIA

system info
nt 4.0 server sp 6a
iis 4.0
applied half of the "harden nt server" suggestion ( i.e. stopping
unneeded
services and removing shares, etc)
