FTP Import Failing

Former Member

We are moving our E-Sourcing system from SAP hosted to local hosted. The dev ESo system sits inside our firewalls and can import successfully from our internal dev FTP server. Same scenario in QA.

In prod, we have the local ESo server in the DMZ and attempt to communicate with a prod FTP server that sits inside the firewalls. This is failing and we see an "FTP Connection failed for host" error message in the ESo log. The unix logs on the FTP server show "authenticating" and then it seems to timeout.

We have checked and doublechecked the id/pwd set up in ESo. We have verified that our firewall is set up to allow the back and forth traffic. Has anyone had a similar problem and know of a solution?

Thanks

Figured it out. Port 113 was being used back into ESo. Not sure why or where it is set, but standard 20 and 21 ftp ports were not enough.
