[newbie] FTP

2001-02-19 Thread Douglas stewart 

I have a L-M 7.2 at 192.168.101
and NT 4.0 at 192.168.1.100
and linksys at 192.168.1.1

I don't have samba running.
ftp is there an each end.

How do I get ftp to connect?

Do I have to set up some accounts?
do I have to start a FTP server?

Thanks
Doug Stewart

Re: [newbie] FTP

2001-02-19 Thread Douglas stewart 

I get

A network error has occurred while Netscape
was receiving data.
(Network Error:)

Try connecting again.


I then tried  from a command prompt window in NT

ftp 192.168.1.101
connected to 192.168.1.101
( there was a 5 second delay then)
Connection closed by remote host.

This would indicate that they are talking but I must have to set up
something in LM

 OK

 You can by default ftp from the Windows box, to the Linux box as long as
you
 have a user ID setup on the linux box.

 In IE try: ftp:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Do I have to set up some accounts?

 Yes, you can not do this by default as root.

  do I have to start a FTP server?
 

 Should be started by default. Try the above and see what you get.

 what is in your /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny?


My hosts.allow and hosts.deny are both just comments.

  Doug here again
  how do you install the ftp server
 

 I'm glad you asked.


ftp://ftp.twoguys.org/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake/7.2/i586/Mandrake/RPM
S/wu-ftpd-2.6.1-7mdk.i586.rpm

 that should download the needed server rpm. It should automatically add
 itself to your startup after installation. Just try to access it this
 time. If you want to be able to make anonymous connections, you will
 have to configure it for that. Use liloconf as it is now in there to be
 configured (I think). It has been a long while since I've used liloconf.
