Hi everyone, People have been experiencing dropped downloads from my FTP because of transfer stalls. I am using the proftpd server, in standalone mode, and I did some grepping in my /var/log/daemon and found this:
Jul 1 23:56:52 sledgehammer proftpd[5619]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Jul 2 00:08:51 sledgehammer proftpd[5841]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Jul 2 00:20:51 sledgehammer proftpd[5904]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Jul 2 01:18:48 sledgehammer proftpd[5909]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Jul 2 01:30:47 sledgehammer proftpd[6105]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Jul 2 01:37:50 sledgehammer proftpd[6191]: sledgehammer (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) - Data transfer stall timeout: 600 seconds Notice that almost all of these stalls happen with 12 minute intervals. Could there be some cronjob that is interfering here, or what is happening? I have not added any cronjob myself. I would be very glad if someone could give me some hints. -- André Dahlqvist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
