Hello, I am using Filezilla as a FTP client to connect me to my website, the problem is that I can only use the Client in my server (Yes, I have the client and the ftp server in the same computer). The problem is that when I try to connect me using other computer in my LAN, it doesn't work. I am not sure if this is a problem of the CentOS 7 firewall or something related with Sentora. I would appreciate any suggestions, thanks in advance
Centos 7 Firewalld is disabled by default you can check it's status. But explain me how do you have the client on same machine as server? Both on centos 7 or do you mean you have a VM?
Check your internal network settings if it's a VM.
You can also check if proftpd is running.
I installed CentOS 7 in a laptop, and then I install a desktop environment . I installed Sentora (and with it the FTP Server), and then I installed Filezilla. So I have the client and the server in the same machine. I did it just to see if it worked, because when I wanted to access using filezilla from another computer in my LAN, was not possible. SSH works correctly in my LAN, but for a strange reason, FTP doesn't. I think I could say that only works in my localhost
if should work BUT we never test sentora on desktop distribution mainly on minimal os installs.
Also likely check your firewall settings.
I also remember that something happens to the stack if you install the GUI. Something gets removed/disabled that the web stack relies on. Maybe it was only Ubuntu? It messes with the networking or something, I can't remember offhand.
If you need some GUI for a server you can use webmin instead of installing the whole desktop that don't offer no gui for server admin.
You can have a great file manager in terminal just install Midnight commander (MC)
Yum install mc
apt-get install mc
mmm, well, I don't need a GUI for my server. I just installed the desktop environment to see if ftp worked there, but I can uninstall it. How can I configure the firewall of my CentOS 7 Server so that I can access to it using FTP from one computer in my LAN?
Just use the servers internal IP.
Firewall in centos 7 is disabled by default unless you restart iptables or FirewallD.
