FTP Connection in the HAproxy - haproxy

Question

I use HAproxy for the first time. This is my HAproxy conf. file and everything works right without FTP connection.
Also, Installed pure-ftp on other guest servers, do I have to make a change in guest machines?
I can not access the servers via FTP.

backend server1

server web-first 192.168.1.2:80
backend server2

server web-first 192.168.1.3:80
I tried this: it did not work
listen FTP :21,:10000-10250
mode tcp
server ftp01 192.168.1.2 check port 21
server ftp01 192.168.1.3 check port 21
What should I do for it?
Thank you.

You'll need to set the ForcePassiveIP setting in the pure-ftpd configuration file. It should be set to the ip of the frontend proxy. Also, make sure the PassivePortRange setting matches what you have in your HAproxy configuration.
The FTP protocol is not straightforward to proxy as it makes multiple connections, though doing it at the tcp layer ought to be okay.
