hmpf. why is my globus toolkit (4.2.1) gridftp not working?
Now it does! Please have a look into the following:
Xinet logs: /var/log/xinetd.log
Xinetd config files: /etc/xinetd.d/gridftp or /etc/xinetd.d/gsiftp
Check your gridmap-file: /etc/grid-security/grid-mapfile for the correct GRID user and local user!
You can log via server_args = -i -d all -l /tmp/gridftp.log and don’t forget to mention some ports: env += GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE=20000,25000 in your /etc/xinetd.d/gridftp (don’t forget to restart xinedt).
Test with:
gsissh -v -p 2811 localhost
and then be sure to have something like the following in your log /tmp/gridftp.log:

And do not forget to open ports 8211 (gridftp), 2222 (gsissh), and 20000:20500 for outgoing GSIFTP…
Oh my, Teldemokles REALLY was a bright guy!!
