There are a few possibilities that spring to mind:-
- Is the target server offering FTP?
If you can get to a command prompt and run netstat -na and look for an entry LISTENING on port 21. You may need to enable this in the services menu, or even install it if there isn't an FTP server present.
- Is there a firewall block?
Try something like pingport or nmap or (dare I say even) telnet pointing to port 21.
These are my usual first targets. Do they help?
Kind regards,
Robin
