500 Illegal PORT Command using Apache commons net FTP. Sridhar Gollapalli. Greenhorn Posts: 4. Posted 13 years ago. Hi All, Please help me My requirement is to transfer file from server to server transfer using ftp, since files are located in one server and need to transfer to another server. I am using Apache commons net ftp. Set the value for pasvminport, e.g. Set the value for pasvmaxport to 7100. Restart the vsftpd service. If you've configured port forwarding in the routers setup, make sure, that ports 7000-7100 are forwarded to your ftp servers local ip address.

Hi All,
 
Please help me
 
My requirement is to transfer file from server to server transfer using ftp, since files are located in one server and need to transfer to another server. I am using Apache commons net ftp to transfer files. My application resides in another third server. All the 3 servers(my application, files located server, destination location server) are linux boxes and using vsftp 2.0.1 version for ftp.
 
Since I am from j2ee background i have less idea on ftp.
I need to establish the client/server(2 servers) communication between two servers to transfer file, since my application resides in third server. I could connect to two servers and change to working directory. Problem is I am making one of the server (files located server) to listen the client (destination location server) by making passive command.
 
Below is output of small program

Ftp 500 Illegal Port Command

That was really hard to read. We have a 'Code' button on our message editor. It wraps tags around pre-formatted text to make it easier to read. Although omitting the escaped HTML would have helped, too.
The ILLEGAL PORT response usually indicates that the firewall of the FTP server needs to be adjusted.
FTP is not necessarily the optimal way of inter-server file transfer, however. If the source and destination servers are both in a secure sub-network, you can use NFS or even CIFS (Windows file sharing). Other options include scp, rsync, and even HTTP file upload.

Some people, when well-known sources tell them that fire will burn them, don't put their hands in the fire.
Some people, being skeptical, will put their hands in the fire, get burned, and learn not to put their hands in the fire.
And some people, believing that they know better than well-known sources, will claim it's a lie, put their hands in the fire, and continue to scream it's a lie even as their hands burn down to charred stumps.
