FTPing from XP to Solaris
Hello. I'm new to Unix. I've got a SUN Ultra 10 running Solaris 5.7 and I'm trying to FTP to it from my XP PC. My PC has an IP address of 10.0.0.3 and a Subnet of 255.255.255.0. I'm connected to the Sun machine with a crossover cable. I type "ifconfig hme0 10.0.0.5" in a shell window (as administrator) on the Sun and try to connect to the Sun by FTPing to it via the PC.
But it doesn't work. How can I FTP to my Unix machine from my XP PC? Please help...it's driving me insane. |

Does ifconfig report the interface as up and happy? Does ipconfig report the interface up on the PC? Are there flashing lights next to the PC's or Suns network connection? Can you ping from the PC first? Is 'ftpd' configured in /etc/inetd.conf? is 'inetd' actually running? On the Sun box can you do 'ftp 127.0.0.1'? Is on the client returning immediately or after a reasonable timeout |

Oops...I think you're speaking Chinese!
How do you plumb the interface? How does ifconfig report the interface? And how do you do this? How do you ping the PC from a Unix machine? What is 'inetd' anyway? Sorry. Like I said, I'm a real newbie to the Unix world. I just want to get these machines to talk to each other. I'm using Network Neighbourhood on the PC which allows me to FTP to the Sun (supposedly). |

login to the sun box and type 'ifconfig -a' and then post the results.
/usr/sbin/ping 10.0.0.3 The 'internet superserver', this is the program on the Solaris box that is waiting for ftp connections. You should see a line like the following in /etc/inetd.conf Code:
ftp stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd -a Code:
# ps -ef | grep inetd
root 160 1 0 Jul 11 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/inetd -s
