I Cannot get FTP Services to Run
-
I am running Ubuntu 12.04 with fog. On one of my storage nodes I am able to get FTP services to work but on the server and Node #2 I cannot. I have copied the config files listed in the fog wiki but not luck. It says the service is running but when I go to check (ftp://X.X.X.X) I get nothing. Any Advice? Thanks!

Check the firewall.

@Wayne-Workman Firewall is disabled.

Have you read through this? https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Troubleshoot_FTP
Sorry for the short replies - I’m very busy today. I normally review everything new on the forums after work when I’m really busy.

@Wayne-Workman I have and triple checked it. I know my etc/fog/.fogsettings was different on one of the servers but that shouldn’t block an ftp server from starting. I’ll take a screen shot of all my config settings

I chatted with Atton.
The suggestion I made to add seccomp_sandbox=NO was the issue.
The vsftpd service would “start” but promptly crash. Removing the line of sandbox and restarting the services, all systems appear to be operating properly now, from an FTP standpoint.

A good follow up question is… what is seccomp_sandbox and what does it do when set to no or yes, and what systems should this be set on?
I already know that (after four agonizing yet very educational weeks in February with my first FOG rundown ever) on Fedora 21 Workstation you absolutely must have it turned on.
