OOPS: child died Connection closed by remote host.

[rdy2]

I am running the Windows FTP client and getting error

ftp> cd /tmp/mnt/VERTEX2/scripts
500 OOPS: child died
Connection closed by remote host.

A google search points to needing a tweak in vsftpv.conf

seccomp_sandbox=NO

I have not tried it yet. Has anyone run into this ?

The problem is that you are trying to change to a directory that you're not allowed to access (strictly speaking it's the path that's the problem).

EDIT: Try using this instead (assuming VERTEX2/scripts is the folder you have shared in the router's GUI):

cd /VERTEX2/scripts

You are right. I have two drives that to FTP appear as rooted on what is /tmp/mnt
(VERTEX60 is a leftover, nothing mounted there)

230 Login successful.
ftp> pwd
257 "/" is the current directory
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.

/VERTEX1
/VERTEX2
/VERTEX60
