Hi,

I have searched the forums and can't find anyone experiencing a similar issue - I am getting an error from my FTP server when I test it from http://ftptest.net/ The error is:

Error: Carriage return without line feed received
The replies sent by your server are violating the FTP specifications.
You have to upgrade to a proper server.

I am pretty sure that this error only manifested since I upgraded the firmware to v1.02b04

Any thoughts or suggestions? Is this a known issue?

``````` Update ```````````

My working hypothesis is that there is a bug in the v1.02b04 firmware. I reverted back to v1.01b09 and the FTP server worked properly. I upgraded again and FTP didn't work. Reverted to 1.01b09 and again it worked.

It surprises me that nobody else has encountered this - has anyone got their FTP server working properly with v1.02b04?

I just can't let this go ...

I thought the problem might have been a "corrupted" firmware file (unlikely in the extreme I know) so I downloaded the file again after reading the useful do's and don'ts article from JavaLawyer. But, I am still experiencing the same problems with the FTP server.

Really? I ask myself. FTP is a simple and well understood protocol - how can it be buggy from one version of firmware to another? Why hasn't anyone else got the same problem?

I am running three WD30EZRX-00DC0B0 hard drives in RAID 5 which are on the compatible drive list and they all pass the SMART test.

I reside in Australia and bought the DNS-345 via ebay in Australia. The original firmware I downloaded was from the D-Link Australia site.

FTP is important to me as I want to store all my video files on the NAS to consume on my iPad through AVPlayer. This app has no problems getting files through FTP with firmware version:

DLINK_DNS345.1.01b09(1.01.0315.2012)(BETA)

but cannot connect with version:

DLINK_DNS345.1.02b04(1.02.0129.2013)(BETA)

This does not seem to be a problem with the app as the online FTP tester (I found through these forums) also reports an error (as noted in my earlier post).

I am becoming convinced that there is a problem and it's not me (although I usually assume it is).

It would be really, really helpful if someone could test simple FTP outside of their own local network and see if they replicate my problem with the FTP tester.

Please?
