CS-ACS SE FTP "active" mode

Dear,
The CS-ACS SE unit seems to enforce passive-FTP
when sending backup sets or retrieving CSV files.
The FTP server (Unix based) mandatorily uses
IPFilter to protect us from unauthorised accesses,
and the passive-FTP mode is quite awkward. (IPFilter
does not have the intelligence to work gracefuly
with passive-FTP).
Is it possible to change/control the way
CS-ACS-SE works:
a/ Could it be set to use "active" FTP?
b/ If only passive-FTP: can we restrict t
the port range used to a small
predictable range?

I don't remember coming across an option where choosing between active and passive mode FTP is possible. You could consider changing the filter to permit/drop based on IP only and leave the port info out.

FTP client is not working in active mode

Hi,
I have a ftp issue trying to download iweb files.
My provider enabled me a ftp access.
I tried to connect to it with transmit or rbrowser ftp client (passive mode disabled). The connection works well but i can not retrieve the list of files.
However using my PC and filezilla ftp client in active mode, the connection did work properly.
Any idea to help make this connection work on my mac ?
Thanks

Perhaps this will help...
http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html
"The main problem with active mode FTP actually falls on the client side. The FTP client doesn't make the actual connection to the data port of the server--it simply tells the server what port it is listening on and the server connects back to the specified port on the client. From the client side firewall this appears to be an outside system initiating a connection to an internal client--something that is usually blocked."

How to Connect to ftp server in active mode using the finder

How can I can I use the finder command "connect to server" to connect to a ftp server using the active Mode. With Cyberduck I can connect to this server only in active mode. Apparently the connect to server command uses the ftp passive mode.
Or is it an other way to mount on the desktop a ftp server in active mode?
Thank you

Passive mode can be disabled in your network settings, but I have a feeling what you're actually asking for is the ability to upload, and the answer to that is the Finder can't do it. There are some filesystem plugins out there that provide this functionality, but they cost money.

BPEL FTP Adapter Active Mode

Does BPEL FTP Adapter supports active ftp mode (instead of passive). Apparently the ftp site for one of the Interfaces uses FTP Adapter and that ftp server it is using supports ONLY active ftp sessions, NOT passive.
Want are configuration to made to changed to support active mode
oc4j-ra.xml for ACTIVE ftp and not passive

Thanks Everybody for the prompt response .
1) What error does one get when trying to connect to FTP Sever which only support active mode

QUESTION
========
Does BPEL FTP Adapter supports active ftp mode (instead of passive).
ANSWER
======
No, FTP Adapter only supports passive mode. For that purpose there is an Enhancement Request
already, the Bug 6866124 - NEED SUPPORT FOR PASSIVE FTP ADAPTER AND CUSTOM FTP
COMMANDS :
1. The FTP Server needs to be active for the Adapter to work. So, both FTP Server and the FTP adapter must be active for it to work.
Also you only support PASSIVE mode in our FTP JCA adapter. ACTIVE mode is currently
considered bad practice and a security vulnerability.
But, we would require both ACTIVE and PASSIVE modes.
2. Custom commands are not supported. But, we need the samples for custom FTP Commands and support for it.
for example: quote site fixrecfm 90...

Any way to set "active mode" for FTP, or to use sFTP instead?

I have a web host that does not support passive FTP mode. I need to either set the mode to be "active mode", or I need to use secure FTP (sFTP). Is there any support for either of these within Muse?

Hi
By default , Adobe Muse FTP option uses " Passive Mode" , I am afraid its not possible to switch to "Active Mode" or to switch to Secure FTP. Alternatively, you may export the site locally using " Export as HTML " and then you may use third party FTP client to upload the site to your third party hosting using Active or Secure FTP.
Let me know if you have any further query.

Active mode FTP access

Hi,
I have some problems accessing my hosted FTP server. It is hosted on Windows NT so Active Mode FTP is needed. However, when I access I can login but it will not conduct a directory listing. I tried the Terminal as well as Transmit applications. From a windows machine on same LAN it works. My FTP host claims it is a local issue which seems to be true.
Searching the forums it seems as "disabling firewall" would make it work. I did that, but it does not work still.
The error display in terminal is as follows:
My-iMac:~ troels$ ftp -A XXXXXXXXXX.dk
Connected to XXXXXXXXXX.dk.
220 Microsoft FTP Service
Name (XXXXXXXXXX:troels): xxxxx
331 Password required for xxxxx.

150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.

Thanks in advance.

I think given that my router's NAT and SPI act as a robust firewall, I may as well just turn the OS X firewall off and 'solve' this problem.

Some FTP servers require active mode for connection.

Is there any option for select active mode during FTP server connection in iweb ?

No, but go and Click on the Apple symbol on your Mac and then open System Preferences. Once is System Preferences go and open Network and then in the bottom right corner of Network click on Advanced and then click on Proxies and at the bottom of the Proxies page there is a setting called passive ftp mode that might be check by default. If it is, then try unchecking it and then uploading your site with iWeb ftp and seeing what happens.
If this does not work, then your other option of course is to publish your site to a local folder from iWeb and then use something like Cyberduck to upload your site.

ACE FTP problem in active mode

on both hosts, i added X.X.X.X vip and the good rule/route with iproute2.
as i said at the beginning, passive ftp is ok. active is not.
while in active mode, i can connect to the ftp but any list/put/get fails.
any idea ?
MA

One thing I don't understand here is why do you have
serverfarm host ftp
transparent
With this in place the ACE will not rewrite the destination IP and the server will receive a packet destined to the VIP. This is not very common, but it can work. The rest of your config seems to be fine, except the missing lbpol policy.
Which sw version are you running?

Is it possible to configure NLB clustering in Active/Active mode.

Hello Guys,
Just wanted to know If I can manually configure my NLB cluster to work in ACTIVE/ACTIVE mode as we can do for Microsoft fail over clustering.
Thanks & Regards
Amit Pal Singh

Hi Amit Pal Singh,
I think you must some misunderstand about the failover and NLB, I assume you are trying to install the Failover cluster, you can refer the following article to install the
A-A failover cluster.

To apply license in FWSM (Active-Active mode) and disable failover

Dear Team
I want to apply license to increase security context in FWSM which is running in Active-Active mode on VSS Core switches
As per below document, first we need to disable failover by entering 'no failover' command on active FWSM and then apply the license seperately on both FWSM.
I just want to know when i will disable the failover then standby move to pseudo-standby state.
Will there be any services impact which are running behind the FWSM when disbaling the failover and then re-enabling the failover.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/fwsm/fwsm40/configuration/guide/fwsm_cfg/swcnfg_f.html#wp1073226
Appreciate your response.

Hi,
I think in your case as it is Active/Active , there is one extra step required.
You need to make all the contexts active on one unit and on the other one all should be standby.
Then disable the failover and update the license and re-enable the failover.
Thanks and Regards,
Vibhor Amrodia

FTP Activity - mget multiple files with dynamic names

Hello All
Hope all is well.
I was wondering if there was a way to configure FTP activity to transfer multiple files with dynamic names from source location at daily intervals.
For example, my source files are affixed with date values (source_filename_<mmddyyyy>_<hh>.txt):
source_filename_12252009_00.txt
source_filename_12252009_06.txt
source_filename_12252009_12.txt
source_filename_12252009_18.txt
What I would like my process flow to do would be to download just these 4 files once daily based on a dynamic ftp script as follows:
open ${Remote.Host}
${Remote.User}
${Remote.Password}
cd ${Remote.RootPath}
prompt off
mget ????????
quit
In DOS batch script you would have the mget command with a wildcard as:
mget source_filename_%DATE:~0,2%%DATE:~2,2%%DATE:~4,4%*.txt
How does one go about implementing this in OWB? Does it require a user defined substitution varilable of some sort?
FYI, I am using version 10gR2.
Cheers.

Hi ,
If you are able to achieve your objective from a DOS batch script then you can call that script for an User Defined Activity in OWB process flow .
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sutirtha
