New install of CentOS 4.1; our first try at the 4.x. On previous 3.x installs we've used proftpd. On this one we're using (trying to use is a better statement of what we're going through) the default daemon, /usr/sbin/vsftpd. But we don't get anywhere. <snip> ftp> passiv Passive mode off. ftp> put ~/xorg.conf.work local: /home/jlasman/xorg.conf.work remote: /home/jlasman/xorg.conf.work 200 PORT command successful.

Any ideas where we should go from here? Perhaps install proftpd? I'm willing to, but I shouldn't have to. Thanks.
