Command line ftp client in Linux compared to Windows
by DiBosco from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6HVYQ)
Folks,
Am trying to connect, from the command line in Linux, to an embedded system that's running an ftp server in FreeRTOS.
When I do it in Windows it connects immediately asks for the username and password and I can dig about in the remote unit.
I simply do this from windows:
ftp 192.168.3.102
On Linux, doing the same returns nothing.
If I do it via filezilla in Linux, providing username and password it says:
Status:Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error:Connection timed out after 20 seconds of inactivity
Error:Could not connect to server
Does anyone know why it won't work from Linux in the same way? Firewall is turned off on Linux, so it's not that.
Can happily supply any requisite information/run tests to troubleshoot.
Thanks!
