No FTP directory listing after block "allow other incoming traffic"

[Steffen_Sellmann]

Hey all,
today i try to fit all FW rules to my need. After i blocked the traffic "allow other incoming traffic" in the Plesk FW i dont get folders listed via FTP. The FTP client connect to my server, but listing content times out. After allow other traffic the content get listed. The rule "Allow FTP connections" ist in all enabled all the time.

Am i wrong that this behavior is wrong ?

Hi Steffen_Sellmann,

did you try to switch to "active mode", instead of using passive mode, when your Plesk Firewall is active?
It is as well recommended to use SFTP instead of FTP.

Assuming that your passive FTP connections worked before you made your firewall changes, if you're looking to connect via passive FTP, have you ensured to follow the steps relating to ports in http://kb.odin.com/en/119525? You shouldn't need to actually make changes to /etc/proftpd.d/passive_ports.conf but rather just open the ports within the Plesk Firewall.
