Hello,

 

 

the FTP content inspection server needs the following changes:

 

 

- Change the username to username@host

 

 

This is the error message from the content inspection server (if I telnet on port 21):

 

 

530 Log in first by USER user@host

 

 

 

So, if I am trying to connect to a FTP server 200.181.11.65, using user "oswaldo" and password "test123", the username has to be changed from "oswaldo" to "oswaldo@200.181.11.65". The password remains the same...

 

 

This username transformation is the first step to make this work... I will try some iRules and post here soon...

 

 

Thanks,

 

 

Oswaldo
