Windows Defender Firewall + Windows FTP Server

Why is windows defender firewall disobeying my firewall rules?

• Enabled Windows FTP Servers via Windows 10 Features.
• Rules are in the firewall allowing FTP access for both passive & control (rules were injected through enabling the service).
• FTP packets are dropped by the firewall still (confirmed in the logs) but no rule is given, just "DROP".
• This is over a VPN that is being detected as "Unidentified Network" thus putting the interfaces in the "Public" zone.
• FTP rules apply to all three zones (Public, Private, and Domain).
• Turning off Windows Defender Firewall for the specific zone allows the FTP transaction.
• There are no rules denying this traffic in the list.

 

FTP Access IIS

Hi

I set up an FTP site using IIS to share files within my LAN. I have created a new user on the same PC as FTP site but when i try to access FTP folder from any device on the LAN using username and password of
my new user it refuses to let me in showing the following: Could not log in to the FTP server with the username and password specified.

Steps that I have gone through when setting up FTP:

• Created ftp folder and set up FTP server
• specified path to the folder
• did not use SSL
• specified IP
• Created new windows user and added this user to FTP authorisation Rules
• Excluded FTP from firewall
• Allowed new user access to the folder itself

Tried to access using both file directory and internet explorer

Did not enable port triggering in the router as was only planning to use FTP locally

I would highly appreciate your help

 

Unable to establish an FTP connection

I have been unable to successfully make an FTP connection to a server using an FTP client in Windows 10. With FileZilla, I get the error message

"Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity

"Could not connect to server"

and with Cyberduck, I see

"Connection failed

"Connection timed out: connect. The connection attempt was rejected. The server may be down, or your network may not be properly configured."

The connection is to allow me to manage a website, and I have done it many times, including I think from this Windows 10 computer.

The Network Diagnostics in Cyberduck simply said:

"Troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem"

I’ve done the following

• checked the Cyberduck and FileZilla settings and procedures against their help pages
• contacted the webhost, who confirmed that there is no problem their end and I should have access
• tested the connection for myself with www.net2ftp.com
• contacted my broadband supplier, who confirmed that there are no issues with the router that may affect FTP
• added Cyberduck and FileZilla to the exclusions in
  
  • Windows Defender
  • Malwarebytes
  • Windows Firewall

I can’t think of anything else. Any suggestions?
