 Eh...  I believe the guys were saying previously that there *was* no

Re: [expert] need help connection refused ftp server

2002-02-23 Thread Tom Eastman

Be reasonable, you must know that a problem like connection refused
could be caused my all manner of problems.  It could be a problem with
the server, a problem with the client, the firewall (if any), with the
network, with IP masquerading... etc.

A simple message like connection refused, unnacceptable is not going
to work here.  You need to help us in order for us to help you, explain
in more detail what you are trying to do, what your setup is and what
you've already tried as a fix.

The reason you got bitchy responses to your question was not because
everyone here is antagonistic, it's because no-one *could* help you with
so little information to go on.  How could someone take a connection
refused message with no other information whatsoever (not even a
VERSION for Pro FTPd) and magically divine what the problem is?

 Its ok to not know something, that is why you ask it.
 
 Because you want HELP does that mean anything
 to you? HELP? I came here for help, and do you
 help? Hell no, you spew out useless information!!!
 
 I bet you don't even know the answer, you are just spewing
 crap. If I wanted this rubbish from you I would have
 gone into a newsgroup.

I hope the list administrator bans this dude. This is uncalled
for. OTOH, IMO, we should avoid provoking people like this so we can have
a civilized discussion group.

Is the service actually running? Check by typing this at the command
line:

service proftpd status

It'll tell you if the service is running or stopped.

If stopped, execute this command:

service proftpd start

All the emails from the kittypuss.org domain are like that. Ignore
them. I can't tell whether they're real, or a troll by somebody who
thinks they're funny. Either way, a waste of time.
