Gents,

I am using standard FTP Wizard and it gives me the following error:Socket timeout after 10 seconds

How and where I can increase the timeout or is it related to some other config settings??

Thanks for your help

Gents,

What can be done to avoid this error while using standard built in FTP Wizard to check for FTP status??

Thanks a lot!

If you go to
Configure -> Core Config Manager -> Services -> Modify (your ftp service)
Set the following:
Check command = check_ftp
$ARG1$ = -t 30

The 30 can be any number you want and represents the number of seconds before timeout.

Also, if you are getting Executable /usr/bin/lftp is not accessible you might need to run
