5337.0. "Connection refused to AB20" by LEMAN::BLANC (Phil Lausanne-CH DTN 753-2324 10-JAN-1992 10:33) Fri Jan 10 1992 04:35

    Hello,
    
    This morning, I got the following errors when I tried to connect to
    Ab20 through DECWRL::FTPMAIL.
    
    How can I get more infos why the connection was refused ?
    
    Thanks and best regards
    Phil

5337.1	enet not ENET	ARRODS::GOLDSTEIN	Steve G. DTN: 847-5401	`Fri Jan 10 1992 06:27`	9
	I'm not having any problem... Could it be your return address , in your reply you have "ENET" should it no be "enet" Try that..might help Steve G
5337.2		LEMAN::BLANC	Phil Lausanne-CH DTN 753-2324 10-JAN-1992 13:55	`Fri Jan 10 1992 07:55`	7
	re: -1 The return address is automatically set by DECWRL::FTPMAIL and had always been ENET. I will retry this afternoon.... phil
5337.3	U got NIXed	STAR::GUINEAU	nothing personal...	`Fri Jan 10 1992 08:13`	18
	The return address is for DECWRL to find you once it has the stuff you request. > >>> open ab20.larc.nasa.gov > ftp: connect: Connection refused I believe this is sort of equivilent to DECNET "remote node is no longer accepting connects" or "remote is not currently reachable" In other words, maybe they rebooted the machine, or were doing backups and temporarily disabled access etc. Come on, it's a UNIX machine! :-) john

	RE:-1 �> >>> open ab20.larc.nasa.gov �> ftp: connect: Connection refused �I believe this is sort of equivilent to DECNET "remote node is no longer �accepting connects" or "remote is not currently reachable" You are probably right as it does work now. Thanks for your help Phil
5337.5	Try connect first	VFOVAX::PATTERSON	The world is flat, it's the universe thats round	`Fri Jan 10 1992 14:50`	7
	�> >>> open ab20.larc.nasa.gov �> ftp: connect: Connection refused Could it mean, that you have to do a 'connect' first? I seem to remember that the help said you MUST do one, even if you use the defaults. Jim

	re: enet vs. ENET Capitalization is ignored in Internet addresses, at least by WRL. re: .0 in general Chances are that AB20's FTP service was either running with the maximum allowed number of connections (from other people) or turned off. Just a suggestion... for future problems please include the message you sent to FTPMAIL. The reply message is incomplete. Wes
