Dear Debian Users, I've been using Debian for about a year now. It's been challenging, but also very rewarding. Searching this list in Google Groups under muc.lists.debian.user has been a wonderful resource.
But recently I wanted to FTP a photo to the "personal web space" that my ISP provides. I've been unable to do this, and have not found any information on what is going wrong. I wonder if some servers are set up so that only Windows applications can access them??? Just today I went back on a windows machine and used a product called "Leech" to do the FTP. It worked fine. In Debian (under KDE) I tried Kbear to FTP to it, entering the hostname, username, and password. A window pops up with the message "reading directory," the little gear in the upper right corner rotates, but nothing beyond that happens. I tried using Konqueror, typing ftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED] A box pops up asking for the password, and after typing it in, I get the endlessly rotating gear in the upper right corner, and at the bottom it says "0 items - 0 files - 0 directories." To display the web page I type: http://users.snip.net/~pchris Here's the log from when I used Leech under Windows: Connecting Connected to users.snip.net, waiting for response 220 Serv-U FTP-Server v2.5j for WinSock ready User pchris 331 user name okay, need password pass ***** 230 user logged in, proceed rest 1 350 restarting at 1 ... rest 0 350 restarting at 0 ... syst 215 UNIX type: L8 pwd 257 "/" is current directory. login completed port 209,204 ... 200 port command successful Does that Winsock reference mean that only software running under Windows can get through??? I've used Kbear and Konqueror successfully to ftp to other sites... Thanks for any suggestions you may have on this...
