Majed17 · 07-17-2012, 07:13 AM

hello i'm trying to ftp to: 93.125.8.81
but i am getting the following:

Code:

# ftp 93.125.8.81
ftp: connect: Connection refused
ftp>

when i should be getting a username and a password.
when i try :

Code:

# ftp 127.0.0.1
Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1).
220 SrvMon FTP Ready.
Name (127.0.0.1:root):

so i guess the configuration is ok..
is it a problem on my side or on the ftp site side?
and help is appreciated

What is the site?
Do you know what port it uses for ftp?

it will not connect with http, and does not return a ping.

whois finds it.

should connect on port 2121 but it doesn't work from a browser only from total commander although i didn't try it yet.. could it be a configuration problem or something with the site?
and thanks for the reply

well after searching more on google i found how to connect to a port different or other than 21 and here is how:

Code:

ftp -i -n 93.125.8.81 2121

you can do it without -n and -i
result:

Code:

Connected to 93.125.8.81 (93.125.8.81).
220 (vsFTPd 2.3.4)
ftp>

after that type

Code:

user

and you get :

Code:

(username)

and after typing in the username you get to type the password
