Since moving servers I've been plagued http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=656749 by constant disconnects whilst using FTP: 421 No transfer timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection I've gone through Proftpd's forum and documentation numerous times to try and find a solution to this but have been unsuccessful so far. Within proftpd's config file it's set at: TimeoutLogin 120 TimeoutIdle 3600 TimeoutNoTransfer 3600 TimeoutStalled 3600 So I am unsure where it is getting the "300 seconds" from. Even though the error states 300 seconds, this problem happens way before 300 seconds every time and has happened during the transfer of files (when the connection has been active and in use). I've tried 3 different FTP clients and used the "Keep Alive" option in each and it has absolutely no effect. I am unsure if APF is causing the problem, I can't see any problems in any of the server logs in relation to ftp. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks It can only be attributable to human error.

» FTP Status and Error Codes FTP Status and Error Codes Last Year GlobalSCAPE 5 CuteFTP for Windows THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE APPLIES TO: EFT Server all versions CuteFTP® all versions DISCUSSION During FTP sessions, servers send and receive various numbered codes to/from FTP clients. https://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle10142.aspx Some codes represent errors, most others simply communicate the status of the connection. Below are brief explanations for the most common status and error codes. When determining a course of action, review the entire log; some codes are informational only, others indicate that you have entered the wrong information, and others indicate what the information is that you need to provide before continuing. For troubleshooting CuteFTP connection problems, also refer ftp error to Troubleshooting CuteFTP Connection Problems. The table below is provided so that you have some idea whether you can solve the issue on your own (e.g., code 331=you need to provide a password) or you need to call your ISP for assistance (e.g., code 426=you are unable to connect to the remote server). These codes are used by most FTP servers/clients. NOTE: The information below is only offered as a courtesy ftp error 421 to assist you in telling your Internet Service Provider what the error is so that they can help solve your issue. For example, if you get a code 426, the transfer was aborted and the connection closed. The solution to this error is to "try logging back in; contact your hosting provider to check if you need to increase your hosting account; try disabling the firewall on your PC to see if that solves the problem. If not, contact your hosting provider or ISP." The list below contains standard FTP codes. Numbers outside this list are proprietary to the Server or Client that you are using. Code Description Discussion 100 Series The requested action was initiated; expect another reply before proceeding with a new command. 110 Restart marker reply. The text is exact and not left to the particular implementation; it must read "MARK yyyy = mmmm" where yyyy is User-process data stream marker, and mmmm server's equivalent marker (note the spaces between markers and "="). 120 Service ready in nn minutes.
