Do you get any error messages back when the ftp login fails? Failing after rebooting made me think of a non-persistent route, except if you can telnet then that must not be it. Still makes me wonder what was there before the reboot that wasn't there after? Not sure about HP-UX, but on Ubuntu Linux you can verfiy that the ftp daemon is running with
-bash-3.00# ps aux | grep ftpd I get back. root 2492 0.0 0.0 5568 1004 ? S 2009 0:00 /usr/sbin/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf root 17508 0.0 0.0 4076 648 pts/3 S+ 08:00 0:00 grep ftpd This shows the daemon is running and the configuration file used. Is it possible that a fix was done to get ftp working, but the fix was not added to the config file to make it persistent? I've never seen that with ftp, but I see it with routes a lot. >> We have something strange happening with FTP on our UNIX box.
