Errors when connecting to freenNAS

[ElPsyKongroo]

Hi,

I'm having some issues lately with the connections from my clients to the freeNAS via FTP. The strange thing is that this errors (the client can't stablish a connection with the freeNas) are (or appears to be) very random. I'm running backups on the clients (in cPanel and Virtualizor) and then transport those backups to the NAS, but, in some cases, the client is unable to stablish a connection and the transport fails. I did a check on the client side but couldn't find any issues (I can ping the NAS server, connect via SSH, etc), so I want to look on the NAS from any clues as to what is causing this problem.

So, where I can look for any clues on this ? Does freeNAS logs the incoming connections or its errors? I'm fairly new to all this NAS bussiness so I apologize if this is a somewhat noob question :P

Thank you.

Any errors in /var/log/auth.log ?

What's the full output of ifconfig ?

No errors in the log.
And this is the output of ifconfig:

Why does your nas server appear to have a public ip?
