problem with ftp in latest -current

[Donn Miller]

Lately, I can't ftp to any anonymous ftp sites.  Every single one I
attempt to ftp to gives me a "connection refused" error message.  Is there
a problem with bind?

Only on your end :-)

Yesterday's -current does not demonstrate this problem on my
workstation, and I do use bind as a local resolver.

Ciao,

I should add that I can login to these sites with lynx, w3m, or
Netscape.  I wonder what the problem could be?  I do have a cable modem,
if that could be a possible cause.  Or, maybe it's a problem with passive
mode, or whatever.

I'm using dhcp, BTW, since I have a cable modem.  Maybe my ISP is doing
something to cause this, I don't know.  I have to use wget as FETCH_CMD to
retrieve ports, since both fetch and ftp give Connection refused messages
for every ftp site.

Also, check this out:

$ ftp localhost
ftp: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
ftp: connect: Connection refused
ftp

Hmm.
