I need some help FTPing into my remote server. This is what I type in terminal:
catherine-oates-computer-2:~ stephen$ ftp
ftp> ftp ***.***.***.***
Connected to grafias.lunarpages.com.
220---------- Welcome to Pure-FTPd [TLS] ----------
220-You are user number 2 of 50 allowed.
220-Local time is now 22:09. Server port: 21.
220 You will be disconnected after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Name (***.***.***.***:stephen): anonymous
421 Unable to set up secure anonymous FTP
ftp: Login failed.
ftp>
Help!!
(I have not posted my IP for safety reasons)
Have you configured the FTP server to allow anonymous connections?
Eh, I lost ya. In other words:
HOW
Actually, yes it is... I dont understand why it doesnt work... there is an anonymous ftp account, and I have set the limits to what it needs... do you think its some safety feature?
Quite possibly. It might be worth trying out some different FTP server solutions, off the top of my head I can think of ProFTP as being one I've used successfully in the past.
