FTP LOGIN REFUSED continously (FTP is off)

I'm getting this every half-second in my system log on my 10.4.6 XServe.
I have FTP access turned off. (Checking the xinetd.d/ftp.darwin it is disabled).
There is no ftp access to this machine from outside, so how can I determine what is happening?

Is this a Mac OS X system, or a Darwin one?
Under Mac OS X, FTP is managed by launchd, not xinetd, in which case the appropriate file is in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/
In either case it sounds like someone is trying to initiate FTP connections to your server. A tcpdump on the server should help determine the source.

FTP LOGIN REFUSED: getpwnam returned null

the below is appearing in my system.log at the rate of about 3 a second. Any idea how I can trace the source of what I assume is an attack.
server ftpd[2953]: FTP LOGIN REFUSED: getpwnam returned null
server ftpd[2953]: FTP LOGIN REFUSED: getpwnam returned null

Others seemed to have the problem as well, but either got no reply or have decided to use a different ftp server instead of Apple's one
Using a different server won't make any difference.
Your machine is being attacked by a hacker trying to get into your FTP server.
Don't be surprised by this. Just about any service that is open to the public internet is going to get probed at some point. All that's happened here is that some bot has detected a FTP server running on your machine and is trying a number of username/password combinations to see if they can log in.
Whether they will or not depends on the number of accounts you have on your server and the strength of their passwords.
Having a different FTP server isn't going to make a difference because the bot doesn't (yet) know what server you're running, it's just opening FTP connections and trying to log in. Any FTP server would respond in the same way.
The solution is to decide whether you really need FTP exposed to the outside world. It really isn't a secure protocol and can be the vector through which other hacks occur. If you don't need it I'd turn it off. If you do need it, consider some way of limiting access (e.g. make it available to LAN clients only and not to the whole internet, or use a VPN.

Strange FTP log entry - FTP LOGIN REFUSED: getpwnam returned null

At the systems log file, I get entries like the following since a few days:
FTP LOGIN REFUSED: getpwnam returned null
Over and over again (three or four per second). System performance is not harmed, anything working in normal parameters.
There are several xftpd processes there causing this behavior - stopping ftp, killing them, restarting ftp solves the problem - and after one day, same situation.
I searched this forum, but haven't found much information. Others seemed to have the problem as well, but either got no reply or have decided to use a different ftp server instead of Apple's one (which is no choice for us).
Any advise would be appreciated.

Programs auto loading on login- how do I turn off

I've recently installed Adobe CS4 and it auto starts everytime I log in. I've gone to my profile under accounts and login items. I see it there. How do I turn it off so it does auto start every time? There are times I just don't want to have it starting. It's the Bridge module that starts up.
Thanks.

Any of the Apps in the list can be removed by selecting and using the minus box under the list to delete.
You can add others there too.

Login: can I turn it off?

Is there any way to turn off the user name and password requirement which comes up every time we want to use the computer?

System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options
If you want to leave your Mac open to the world and let anyone do what they will, choose Automatic Login and an account to run as. All modern operating systems after DOS require a user account and authentication to run as.
If you go that route, be sure you have a good backup and know how to use it. In case somebody screws up and turns your Mac into a brick.

Verizon refuses to honor $10 off upgrade from regular phone to smartphone incentive

After upgrading from regular phone to smart phone that was advertised for $10 off last december, customer service dragged feet for over one year with no response only to come back stating that the offer is no longert available (duh) so they cannot honor the discount which was the only reason I upgraded in the first place. Thus, they made a substantial change to the plan affecting my bill and refuses to refund my overpayment and threatened to cut my lines if I do not pay the full amount. Anyone have another reqource to get my reimbursement without losing my account and ruining my credit?

[Mobile Acc.] VERY slow logout when login on network AND logout off network

Hello,
I'm installing a macmini server (10.6.6) and want to use mobile user account.
I thought everything was fine so I tried to login and logout with my macbook pro (Snow Leopard).
Unfortunately I detected a pb :
- When I login on network and logout on network everything is fine
- When I login off network and logout off network everything is fine
- When I login on network and try to logout off network, the login is fine but the logout needs about 20 minutes!
I found in the console that the macbook is waiting to re-connect the afp share points.
How can I avoid that?
Thanks in advance

Thanks to try but I'm not in this case.
Note that the pb appears only on logout.

Mac talks at login only but is turned off in universal access preferences

My system talks at login as in if the mouse is over something
once logged in it doesnt do it in either account
I checked the Universal Access section and it is all turned off
So where do you turn it on and off for he login screen ?

Can I set up an FTP server from a networked Time Capsule?

I've been looking around and can't seem to find this specific question addressed anywhere, so I'm hoping someone knows the answer to this.
I have a Time Capsule connected directly to my router. Other than its intended purpose, I would like to connect an external USB hard drive to it, and use that as an accessible FTP server for a select few.
To my understanding, port forwarding the router and giving WAN access would allow any user to see the entirety of the Time Capsule - which I do not want. I only want to share this one drive and have it maintained by an FTP login/password. I would then share this drive on the internal network.
Is this possible? Or will I have to run the FTP server off one of my workstations?
Cheers.

Not in usable and reliable way no.. many things are possible.. if you have the (various bad words for foolishness or courage)... but it is too hard as there is no hacked firmware out there for a TC. It is a device intended for TM backups of laptops by wireless. Anything else is restricted strictly to what Apple want you to use it for. You can buy a cheap NAS, single disk unit will almost inevitably have FTP in them.. over network FTP is ok but remember it is not secure so you want SFTP for internet access.. And be warned.. FTP itself will be blocked from WAN on the TC.
There are severe FTP issues with the AE/TC.. the last couple of versions of the Gen1-5 firmware as well as the Gen 6.. See this thread.

https://discussions.apple.com/message/22927625#22927625
The last post in this thread by.. SBeattie2
I think will condemn you to replacement of the TC by a router that actually conforms to standards if you are trying to forward it to a workstation or NAS even.
SFTP might work.. see this thread.

Connection problem - no ftp connection

It is hard to use Dreamweaver, when the FTP connection seems to have been erased. Has anyone experienced this?

Hello,
many of the people here use the DW integrated FTP function.
There this should work: Site->Manage Sites. Select your site and click Edit. Use wizard on the "How do you connect to your remote server?" question to select FTP. Insert your FTP login information and test the connection. Now you should be able to upload your site. > Look to your files panel. Use Up arrow to upload files to your server. You naturally need all the data here to access the server.
In addition, I'll quote a hint from Nancy O.:
Try toggling Passive and/or Secure FTP on/off.
Your web host might have changed upload requirements to improve security.
Another thing to check is your Anti-virus and Firewall settings. If they are too restrictive, DW may not have permission to connect to the remote server.
Some here have difficulties, so perhaps it is worth to go a different way. It's well known, that in all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed troubleshooting. To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
Good luck!
Hans-Günter
P.S.
Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

FTP between iSeries Servers from ABAP stops after 500 rows

Hello together,
we wrote an abap program which should transfer a iseries DB Table from
SAP to an other iseres DB2.
The program writes approx. 500 rows. The table has approx. 600 rows.
If we use a smaller table to transfer, the transfer will be ok.
We think there is a problem in the kernel for this topic.
How can we trace the ftp transfer? Do we have a chance to find out why
the ftp connection breaks down?
Here is a part of the abap:
MOVE 'put zpp_s00005.file/zpp_s00005.mbr' TO command.
CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_COMMAND'
    EXPORTING
      handle        = hdl
      command       = command
      compress      = compress
    TABLES
      data          = result
    EXCEPTIONS
      command_error = 1
      tcpip_error   = 2.
This is the log file:
quote time 9999 #
250 Inactivity time-out set to 9999 seconds. #
cd $rein #
250 "$REIN" is current library. #
set passive on #

Hi,
i thought so.
I tested with
TRCTCPAPP APP(*FTP)
TRCTCPAPP APP(FTP) SET(OFF) TITLE('SAP FTP')
and there is no spoolfile.
This is the link to the V6R1 documentation:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/rzaiq/rzaiqtraceserver.htm
So I need a possibility for tracing the abap FTP !?
best regards,
Carsten

DWCS5 on Maverick times out when trying to connect to server. Other FTP programs connect immediately.

I'm unable to connect with my server because DWCS5 times out. I'm using 10.9.3. Two other FTP programs connected immediately. What the answer?

Try Toggling Passive FTP on/off in the More Options menu. See screenshot.

FTP Connection for Two Local Sites Needed

v1 of my html5 pages successfully loaded onto the ISP server. The pages were done in a hurry without a lot of CSS thought. v2 corrects that but I'm unable to ftp to the server. I'm not clear why I can't just select which local site to connect with. Server connection from the first local site worked just fine, then, 30 seconds, later local site v2 can't find the connection.

I'm assuming you have two different site definitions set-up in DW. One for Site1 and another for Site2. Whichever one is giving you grief, try toggling passive FTP on/off. You'll find it under Servers > More Options. See screenshot.

Ftp will no longer update

I deleted a web site from my server and then replaced it with an updated version and then over the next several days i corrected some bits and pieces and edited the pages etc etc however I went to update it again today and dreamweaver (or the server) will no longer replace the files I get a "error occurred - Unable to create server folder /public_html/Flash/. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured." same applies to all the other sub folders Templates, images etc I have not changed anything exept the content of the files if anyone knows whats I've done wrong it would be a Ggreat help ty.

Hi,
my various opinions expressed to this much discussed subject, are showing that I prefer a program which works "outside" of the DW. My reason is: for each task in whatever area we work, we search for the experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
So I prefer to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server, by using filezilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and
http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server.

P.S.
In addition, I'll quote a hint from Nancy O.:
Try toggling Passive and/or Secure FTP on/off.
Your web host might have changed upload requirements to improve security.
Another thing to check is your Anti-virus and Firewall settings. If they are too restrictive, DW may not have permission to connect to the remote server.
