Well, does your ftp server run from inetd? and is it possibly commented out? Are there rules in /etc/hosts.allow /etc/hosts.deny that might cause this? Can you 'telnet <the host> 21' ? Perhaps tcpwrappers is taking issue with the connection? Did you try another ftp client (like WS_FTP) ? Just some thoughts... -- +----------------------------------------------------+ | Eric G.
