In his work, when he's trying to connect to an ftp server with Filezilla and other clients on Windows to download some work related data, everything seems to work: he's been asked for user/pass, then he gets the 220 status message with the text and he can download all the stuff.

But with Linux, with the same filezilla (and other ftp clients), he connects to the same ftp, gives his user/pass, then he gets the first line of 220 status message and the ftp is "freezing", no more text, no nothing. I tried it with server ftp clients on Linux, disabled his iptables and tried it with my Linux netbook machine at his work - same results.


If it eventually times out and starts to work, it's a problem with the ident daemon.

If it never times out (say 10 to 15 minutes), try passive mode.

As in:

ftp somehost.at.some.domain
(user prompt) username
(password prompt) password
passiv
cd directory
get filename
quit

I don't think it's related to the company's firewall since it works perfectly with any ftp client on Windows without any special setting or proxy.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Hetz
