I know this question is too broad to answer, but I can't connect to a filezilla server I'm hosting.
The computer its on has a real IP address (not not).
I am allowing connections on ports 21 and 22.
I can connect from a local filezilla client over both ftp (mapped to port 21) and ftps (mapped to port 22).
Whenever I try to connect from another computer, nothing happens.
When I connect to a website hosted on the same computer (over http or https) the connection works fine.
The client just hangs and the server doesn't print any new lines, as if it has detected no connection at all.
How can I debug this problem? It seems too broad to really ask about, so how do I go about testing to improve the situation?
try telneting to the port :
telnet HOST 21
if you get any response, it should be from a ftp server.

I am using Windows 10 with IIS 10.0
I am publishing website on IIS and I need to reach it with public ip.
What I did;
* Port forwarding through router
* Adding DMZ with my local IP
* Turning off firewall
* Adding port to firewall inbound rules with allow edge traversal
I can connect with internal IP like 192.168.1.75:81
I get "System.Net.Sockets.SocketException A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond from [MYPUBLICIP]" when I try to reach it like MYPUBLICIP:81
What are the possible scenarios that blocks to port?
Thanks.
As far as I know, the error message means there is no server listening at specified ip/port that you are trying to connect to.
In my opinion, you should firstly make sure your client machine could access your server by using this MYPUBLICIP address.
Then I suggest you could try to make sure the port 81 is your IIS web application port.
Besides, I suggest you could try to open your event viewer to find out the details error message.
I have a Neo4j database on my desktop computer that I would like to access remotely. I'm not very knowledgeable about servers/networking, but here's a list of things I've done to try to get it working:
Uncommented the dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0 line in the settings, as well as dbms.connector.http.listen_address=:7474 and dbms.connector.https.listen_address=:7473
Set up a TCP/UDP port forward on my router mapping 30408 to 7473.
Reserved a static IP for my desktop (the same one that appears in the port forward).
Defined incoming firewall exceptions on my desktop for ports 7474, 7473, and 30408 for both TCP and UDP (I'm guessing the 30408 one doesn't matter, but I've been trying everything).
When I try to connect through Chrome with {public_ip}:30408, it gives ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE (Firefox just says "The connection was reset").
I am able to successfully connect to the neo4j browser on my local network with {local_ip}:7474.
Edit: Should I look into trying to do this with SSH? I still don't know what is going wrong in the first place.
I currently have a Firebird 2.5 database at a client premises, installed on a Windows 7 Pro machine (32 bit), that has multiple stations in their local network that can connect to the database, along with the local machine being able to connect with our application and IBExpert.
However, for some of our software packages, a remote connection is required (outside of the local network). This previously was working but no longer works.
When I connect with FlameRobin from my office (I'm located in a different city / different network), I receive the following error message:
IBPP::SQLException
Context: Database::Connect
Message: isc_attach_database failed
SQL Message: -923
Connection not established
Engine Code : 335544421
Engine Message :
connection rejected by remote interface.
Performing this connection attempt with IBExpert, both from my office and from other external networks fail with a same message.
However, I am getting TCP/IP communication from what I can see. Here are the details of my troubleshooting steps for the last week:
Originally, I was receiving the following error when connecting from outside the network:
"Connection not established
Connection refused by remote interface"
Since that time, we have done a restart of the router and now have the current "connection rejected by remote interface." error message.
I can telnet to the public IP through port 3050 from my office and other outside networks.
I tested port 3050 on sites like YouGetSignal.com or CanYouSeeMe.org and they appear as open.
Other ports that we communicate on publicly are open and communicating.
The site has Kaspersky antivirus installed but all tests to connect via IBExpert while Kaspersky was in sleep mode behaved the same.
Installation of Firebird 2.5 to another workstation in the same local network, pointing to port 3051 (both in Firebird.conf and in the Windows Firewall and Router) show up as being open through Telnet and CanYouSeeMe.org but again, cannot be communicated on from outside via port 3051.
IBExpert works from a workstation in the network to the server
The server currently has no entry for RemoteBindAddress in the Firebird.conf
Wireshark shows that when a connecting from outside, there are packets coming through.
The TCP/IP test in IBexpert under Communication Diagnostics for the public IP as the host and the Service show the following Test Results:
Attempt connecting to XX.YY.ZZ.AAA.
Socket for connection obtained.
Found service 'GDS_DB' at port '3050'
Connection established to host 'XX.YY.ZZ.AAA',
on port 3050.
TCP/IP Communication Test Passed!
Database path, username, and password have all been checked multiple times.
locally on the server, I've changed security of the database.FDB and the security2.FDB to have Everyone, Full Control
At this point, we have a scheduled restart of the ISP's modem happening soon, although the fact that we have full TCP/IP communication over the port makes me doubtful that this is the issue.
If anyone can lead me down any recommended next steps to debug or to any tools that are available to help in this situation, that would be greatly appreciated.
This turns out to be a networking issue. We performed the following tests:
We performed a power cycle on the ISP's modem which showed no change in behavior
We connected a laptop directly to the ISP's modem but couldn't communicate to FB even with proper port forwarding rules in place on the machine and firewall.
We ran wireshark on both sides and on connection attempts, we found many attempts to connect with retransmissions that failed.
The technical team at the client side decided to install a VPN capable router and now we're good to go. From what we found there may be some kind of ISP blocking occurring as many of the tech teams remote services were failing to connect with similar behavior.
Hopefully this post helps people in the future with remote connectivity debugging, and all of the places you can look at when you're running into this problem.
I am using Mac book and having client and server running on same machine. Server opens socket whenever it has to send command to Client. Problem is Client opens socket at startup but whenever server opens on . Ip adress is different. I would like to know if i create tunnel between these 2 sockets. Right now, while in server i am getting "Connection refused" error.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Just use 127.0.0.1 loopback address for testing your initial socket code. Server bind()s and listen()s on some known port, client connect()s to it. Once you figure out that setup you can move on to routing between real addresses.
I am building a basic client server application in delphi indy 10 ;
I have set sever app with local ip and a specific port, and i set client with public
IP to client host when i am testing the application the following error i got
here
I am testing both client and server app in same machine (as i had no other option),will this cause error.
You can absolutely run a TCP client and server on the same computer.
Only one application can listen on a given port at a time, but (virtually) any number of clients can connect to that server, even from the same machine.
Did you find your router settings from the previous question?
