Please try man ftpd
Another thing could be that if the machine is outside the firewall then you
need to check it port 21 is blocked
try
$ telnet <ip address of the m/c> 21
basically if the linux machine is owned or managed by you then you could
check if
ftpd is running on it
that can be checked (provided you are logged as a root i think)
by
$ ps ef | grep -i ftp

| ftp <IP addr of my local machine >.
| I am getting the error :
| ftp: connect: Connection refused.
|
| But i am able to ftp to any other Unix machine.
| Do i need to set any properties on my local machine to do the ftp to my
local
| machine.
