hey guys, I just installed my ftp server by following the steps located here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588

Only thing is, i have no idea how to connect to it! Ive searched these forums and still have no clue after reading many threads and man pages.

According to the howto you've followed the server is listening on port 1980. So if you want to connect to that server, make sure it's running and use:

Code:

ftp xx.xx.xx.xx 1980

Connect to it? From where? From another computer? In the latter case, use Places > Connect to server - FTP(with login).
