Is there a firewall between you and your zope instance. If your firewall prevents inbound connections, then all control commands will work, but data tranfers (retr, list, etc) will fail, since the ftp server will attempt to connect to you through a firewall. Change your ftp client to use passive ftp and everything should work. Passive ftp allows the client to make the connection for both control and transfer connections. Id on't know your client, but most ftp clients are capable fo passive mode. --sam Chris Withers wrote:

I was just wondering if there is a separate config file for the Medusa FTP server because it alows anonymous logins even when I have used the zope management interface to create a user say fgh who has the rights that would usually be given to the anonymous group. I even defined a matching group fgh and removed all rights from the anonymous group.
Don't quite follow the group bit.
Medusa's FTP will let you login with _any_ username and password, IIRC (a bug IMHO) but you can only _do_ anything if a Zope user object exists with that username _and_ it has the rights to do what you want to do.
Almost related, I've been havign trouble FTP'ing into a lot of our Zope instances with ange-ftp recently. Basically, login goes fine, but then it just sits there saying:
Listing.... /chris@localhost 8021:/test/...
...where test si a DTML method.
any ideas?
Oh yeah, and there's still all those 'Unhandled connect event's when doing stuff via FTP, any idea what they mean?
cheers,
Chris
