FTP Error
 

HI,
When i try to FTP a file to a mainframe system i get the following error
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection
Actually i am able to login and start sending the file using the FTP account.
The file transfer is getting terminated after the "put" command.

The full log is

Hi,

The info given doesn't show/tell if the connection was active or passive.

Try switching to the one you are not using.

There are many ftp clients out there, so telling you how is kinda hard. Using standard, commandline linux ftp you can use the passive command (man ftp for details).

Hope this helps.
