FTP Security Concern

I had an issue with someone trying to connect to my FTP site and was having a problem
They sent me a log of the transaction that took place but Im not sure what it all means
Here is a sample of what the log read
{=========================================================

Sounds like the certificate is being denied.  If your certificate is from a trusted 3rd party you will need the user to accept the cert.  Your best bet is to make sure the cert is good and that other users can log in to the FTP server.  You might also want to check and make sure they using an FTP client that will work.

ASKER

Other users can connect to the FTP with no problem is this because their trying to make a SSL  connection
Judging by the log you posted SSL cert doesn't seem be trusted by the user's computer.  I would start troubleshooting there.

One other thing once the make the connection
They get an IP redirect witch redirects to our internal IP address of the FTP Server.
Is that normal?
oh.  that redirect could be the name mismatch.
