I've got a problem with zope on Solaris system. I can access the ftp-Port from within the LAN (being either there or using ssh to connect to a server in the LAN) but not using a port forward for it. I can however use http-Portforwarding over ssh, but ftp-Portforwarding only gives me the possibility to login, the ls command "hangs" at entering Passive Mode. If I turn off passive mode I get error 425 Cant build data connection.
Has somebody a soluting how to get ssh-forwarded ftp Access to Zope?
FTP is a very difficult protocol with respect to forwarding and FireWalls. That's because FTP uses two connections, a command connection and a data connection. The latter is created on demand. It is very difficult to forward the data connection.
That's what I hoped not to be.
Workarounds:
Transfer your data from outside into your LAN (e.g. via "scp") and then use a LAN FTP connection to Zope.
That's what I'll do.
Use WebDAV to directly transfer the content into Zope.
Hmm, looks like I have to really read some docs on WebDAV. Thanks for the hints. Andreas -- Fine day for friends. So-so day for you.
