Connection terminated by the server after user enters any subcommand

If the server terminates a connection after the user enters a subcommand, either one or both of the following events might occur:
  • FTP server address space shows an exit code of 0000.
  • Last FTP server trace entry for the client session is RXnnnn Server thread terminates rc = -2. The preceding entries indicate a “select” error due to a bad file descriptor.

These events indicate that the server inactive time limit has probably expired with no activity from the client. If this happens frequently, check the inactive time set for the server. If necessary, increase it, and recycle the FTP daemon.
