ftp on Mediaone
Is anyone else having trouble using ftp on MediaOne's cable modem service
from a Linux box? Strangely, ftp works from my RedHat 5.2 system, but not
from a 6.0 or 6.1 system.
What I'm seeing is an "Illegal PORT Command" error:
> SOS:sos=> ftp skypoint.com
> Connected to skypoint.com.
> 220-Welcome to SkyPoint
> 331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.
> 230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
> Remote system type is UNIX.
> Using binary mode to transfer files.
> ftp> ls -l
> 500 Illegal PORT Command
> ftp: bind: Address already in use
> ftp> quit
Anyone got a cure for this that doesn't involve my running RH5.2?
thanks much'idly,
