This is my iptables config
suren@surendhar:~$ sudo iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
I found the pointer to pam key was missing in the original configuration
file. So I added the following lines.
# This option specifies the location of the RSA key to use for SSL
# encrypted connections.
rsa_private_key_file=/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
#tcp_wrappers=YES
log_ftp_protocol=YES
* What outcome did you expect instead?
ftp to localhost should succeed.
