Comment 1 Adri Timmermans 2002-04-09 11:46:07 UTC

The server (one of the) with the problem:
194.78.72.142 (gloveg.vgt.vito.be or gloveg.vegetation.be)

Comment 2 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-04-10 20:18:08 UTC

99.99% of all wu-ftpd timeout problems are related to a broken DNS setup that doesn't 
allow the server to do reverse lookups. 
Is the server configured correctly to do reverse lookups? (e.g. do you get any results 
when running "host 216.148.218.197" on the server?)

Comment 3 Adri Timmermans 2002-04-11 07:55:59 UTC

I tried the host command on the ftp server (194.78.72.142 - gloveg.vgt.vito.be) 
and on our 2 nameservers (194.78.72.130/cat.vgt.vito.be and 
194.78.72.133/ctivdns.vgt.vito.be) And in all the cases I received the 
www.redhad.com als result. (The cat.vgt.vito.be is an older version with OS 
True64 Unix 4.0E - there I did nslookup)
The subnet masks of all 3 systems is 255.255.255.224  (they are in the same 
subnet = My DMZ)

Comment 4 Adri Timmermans 2002-04-11 07:59:26 UTC

I have this on all my Dell boxes with redhat. I already installed the version 
of wu-ftpd of the people.redhad.com/mgahagan version 2.6.1-20. And this had no 
result. Still had the wait time between the connect and the actual login.

Please use vsftpd, wu-ftpd is not maintained anymore.
