If you can be more specific with your errors that would be great. You said you cant connect to it with either a hostname or an IP address. It could be a DNS issue, i.e. the hostname is either incorrectly defined, or the hostname is not what you think it is.

If you cannot connect with an IP address, then either your ftpd is not running or you have a firewall that does not permit ftp initiation on port 21 or you may not have ftp enabled in the services file (unlikely but possible).
