[BlueOnyx:11324] 5108R FTPS

[Chris Gebhardt - VIRTBIZ Internet]

All,
Does anyone have tips for getting FTPS to work on 5108R?

We have a new installation for a customer who demands FTPS or SFTP.  I 
understand that FTPS should be supported out of the box.  But we're 
unable to get a connection using FileZilla FTP client.  FileZilla 
defaults to port 990 for FTPS.  If we set it to 21, it just hangs.

Here's what the FileZilla client outputs using port 21:
Status:	Selected port usually in use by a different protocol.
Status:	Resolving address of www.domain.com
Status:	Connecting to 208.x.y.z:21...
Status:	Connection established, initializing TLS...
Error:	Connection timed out
Error:	Could not connect to server

And default port 990:
Status:	Resolving address of www.domain.com
Status:	Connecting to 208.x.y.z:21...
Status:	Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection 
refused by server".


The FileZilla settings have the servertype as "FTPS - FTP over implicit 
TLS/SSL"

Meanwhile, here's what is in the server's /var/log/messages:
Sep 13 21:55:00 dallas02 xinetd[5486]: START: ftp pid=2308 
from=::ffff:208.77.151.18
Sep 13 21:55:00 dallas02 proftpd[2308]: 208.x.y.z 
(208.77.151.18[208.77.151.18]) - FTP session opened.
Sep 13 21:55:20 dallas02 proftpd[2308]: 208.x.y.z 
(208.77.151.18[208.77.151.18]) - FTP session closed.
Sep 13 21:55:20 dallas02 xinetd[5486]: EXIT: ftp status=0 pid=2308 
duration=20(sec)

Input is appreciated.
