Subject:   ftp hanging at transfer end
Message-ID:  <E15yi2X-000EB3-00@server.twwells.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I've got a 4.3 server that is being used for outgoing FTP
transfers. FTP sessions fairly frequently hang after transferring
a file.

The client is a Windows FTP client. Which Windows does not seem to
make any difference. However, some FTP clients fail and others do
not. The problem does not occur when the client is Unix. The
originating network does not seem to make any difference. A packet
sniff on the Unix side says that a FIN packet is sent at the end
of the transfer but the Unix side does not see a FIN from the
client.

This is an intermittent problem; it generally manifests when
transferring multiple files, the transfer stops after a few files.

Any ideas what might be causing the problem?
