Hey there
I get the same error message
Quote:
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.
|
Server: Windows XP Professional (don't ask me why... it wasn't my idea)
Client: SLES 9
I can connect to the server but only until I send a command like "dir" or try to transfer a file I get the 421 error message.
The weirdest thing: I tried it from a Windows 2003 Server too and it worked there!
Here my FTP transaction try from the Linux Client:
Quote:
Linux:~ # ftp x.x.x.x
Connected to x.x.x.x.
220 Microsoft FTP Service
Name (x.x.x.x:root): user
331 Password required for user.
Password:
230 User user logged in.
Remote system type is Windows_NT.
ftp> dir
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.
ftp>

Anyone got an idea? I think it is a misconfiguration on the Windows XP FTP Server because i can connect and transfer files to other FTP-Servers with the Linux client without any problems.
Edit:
Argh, believe me or not but I have a possible solution for that problem. Simply type the command "epsv off" after you just connected to the host. After that I could start my transfers.
