Re: Unable to FTP to i from desktop

Scott,

I downloaded File-Zilla FTP client and tried to connect from that. I am not
sure I am doing everything correctly, but this is what happened:

After connecting, it shows me the current library, and on the next line
gives me an error message "Failed to retrieve directory listing". When I
enter the command "pasv" (by clicking Server and then selecting "Enter
custom command), I get error message "Disconnected from server: ECONNABORTED
- Connection aborted".

Just want to let you know that ports 20 and 21 on the firewall of the server
are pointing to the private address of the i (192.168.100.7).

Thanks
Vinay

Noooooo! You don't want to say "Quote". If you use quote, the server
will be in passive mode, and the client will be in standard ("active")
mode and you'll have a mess that can't possibly work.

Just do: pasv

Do not use "quote".

from the ftp prompt try:
