[expert] L/M 8.0 & FTP
Gentlemen (& Ladies), I've got several L/M 8.0 boxes on a LAN along with a couple of other linux boxes (web/email servers) on the same LAN / different segment. With the L/M 8.0 boxes I can ping all machines on the LAN and ftp to the web and email servers but I cannot FTP from one L/M box to the other nor can I FTP to the L/M 8.0 box from the M$ boxes. I'm sure that it's just a simple setting somewhere but it's hiding from me (playing snake waiting to byte me ;-) ). Thanks, -- \\\|/// / \ ( 0...0 ) ---oOOo-(_)-oOOo-- Joseph Gardner Supervisor, CAD Group Kirby Co.
