[BlueOnyx:16343] WORKAROUND RE: Re: Pootle-Patchday Issues II : ProFTPd fixed (sort of)

[Rodrigo Ordoñez]

I found a workaround too,

I just  disabled the ban module at /etc/proftpd.conf  

How to doit:
1)Ssh to the server

su root
cd /etc
pico proftpd.conf
#go to the bottom of the file and search for the line 
     BanEngine on
 
And change it to  
     BanEngine off

Use control-x to exit and use Y to accept the changes

#restart xinet with
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart


Voila ftp works


*****Use at your own risk this disables the brute force blockage
