A Strange problem - 421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
The server is fine (I tried it with other FTP servers too), I could
make ftp connection to it from all the microsoft window based
clients. The strange thing is, if I do a "ping hostname" first, then
"ftp hostname" right after, it works. I am guessing something like
the client lost its connection route to the server after the initial
connection (after "ftp hostname", and before username is entered).
But why only happens to the linux based machines? There must be some
problem in the network (could be the router) that the window machines
can overcome, but not the Linux. I would like to see if there are
people who had encountered this problem before and had figured out the
solution for it.
Thanks,
Vince
