Y have a ftp server running (vsftpd) in gentoo.
The problem when I connect with the server, upload a file or download the response between the server and client has a delay of 30 seconds.
The speed downloading or uploading the file is correct but exist this delay until the ordeer is sent.

Wild guess, delays like this are often caused by DNS lookup issues.

I tried to use the option "reverse_lookup_enable=NO" but this option is not disponible in vsftpd of gentoo:
500 OOPS: unrecognised variable in config file: reverse_lookup_enable

Any solutions?

You could wireshark the connection in order to find out if the culprit is the server or the client. If the request is sent from the client & 30 seconds later you receive an answer, it's a server issue. But if you make the request in your client program & it takes 30 seconds for the program to send out the request, well it's the client.
