[expert] L/M 8.0 & FTP

2002-02-08 Thread Joseph Gardner

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,
--

Another good / simple distro that works on an old 486 is FreeSCO
