Re: Stopping FTP

I think I'm going to agree with Larry here.

Potentially use your firewall to block all outbound traffic from the
partition. Allow it only to reply to requests such as Telnet, the host
servers and such. You likely don't want it printing either.

Hello all,

This may sound like a silly question...then again it may not. We have a

partition that we have spun up for the sole purpose of testing an upgrade
to our ERP package. One of the things that we are testing as part of this
is all of our batch jobs that run through the Advanced Job Scheduler.
Since we don't want to have this partition sending things out as if it was
our production system, we are ending certain things on this system, such as
email and FTP. I've used the new version of Navigator to specifically end
the FTP server, and I can verify that there are no server jobs running and
that I can't FTP TO this partition. Only problem is, I still seem to be
able to FTP FROM this partition. I've not tried to actually send a file
out with the FTP server down, but I can for sure still connect to one of
our other partitions and query the contents of a directory on that
partition.

Is there something additional that I have to do to make it so that I

can't FTP into OR out of this partition? I was thinking that ending the
FTP server did both, but apparently not. I'd appreciate any and all input
you may have on this. Thanks!
