    are you trying to remote or local connect?

    Meaning is your ftp at your ip or is it loaded on a server someplace?

                  really i would have to know what your problem is?

                  did you get access to a server or did you buy and start your server from scratch?

                      Do you have root access on that server?

                      If so, remove the comment off the following line in /etc/inetd.conf :

                      "ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l"

                      And restart inetd: killall -HUP inetd

                          Anyway its too hard to talk about the prob here, if you cant get in contact with your server support then i guess we could talk, i dont want to turn your attaction to someplace you have already looked... have you got some off line work to do? or ... i dont know!

                                      anyhow you can also upload using ssh if you really need to upload right away before your server help responds

                                        type sockstat, and see if inetd is listening on port 20/21
                                        also check there is no firewall rules in place
                                        ipfstat -io
                                        ipfw show
                                        make sure ipfw shows
                                        65535 0 0 allow ip from any to any
                                        and not deny (some have deny all by default)

                                          Your inetd may not be working. Try just typing "inetd" and then see if ftp works.

                                                  I'll be on for another 30 minutes, feel free to icq me if you are out of options 922-10-961.

                                                  Really you need someone to take a look at your server since it could take days to check the various things for someone who has never done it before.

                                                  Of course the real question is: Why isn't your host fixing this?
                                                  Does anyone look down here?

                                                    Because i didnt ask them to. I rarely need them for anything, but this new box simply isnt working like my other 2 freebsd servers.. I had no problems with them

                                                    guess I'll be emailing them now

                                                      although unlikely since you said it is a fresh install, if the firewall list is blank or not set to deny all by default check
                                                      /etc/hosts.allow
                                                      inetd in freebsd started with -wW flags will use hosts.allow as an ACL and could be that tcpwrappers are a problem.

                                                      good luck.

                                                            np, did you ask them how it was fixed? so you can do it yourself?

                                                              you should use winscp/scp/sftp to transfer files anyway, nice and secure, I have run problems with transferring compressed files (gzips) over blowfish algorithm sessions though

                                                                I just need to upload something and get it running tonight, the ftp and other stuff can wait till monday
                                                                Look its really great to hear that your ftp is working, if i was to start to tell you how to use ssh to upload, it will only waites time as you dont need to do it that way now!


                                                                Good Luck with your tonights update!
