Connecting to a server using FTP is hanging
Hi Friends

I have created a shell script to connect to a windows server. But the problem is while trying to run the script I am not getting any output. After running the script it is hanged and the prompt is not showing until if I press the ctrl+Z to break the script. I also tried using the FTP command but here also I am getting the "Connecting to server address" meaasge and after that it is hanged.

I checked using telnet and it is working but while doing telnet it is asking for the username and password and the FTp port 21 is opened also. For your refrence I am attching the screenshot of FTP.

Can anybody tell me why this is coming.

Thanks and Regards
Darshan

ftpd on the remote server (or whatever windows service is running this ftp service if the remote server is not UNIX) needs to be restarted. I am assuming the connection used to work, and now does not. It should ask for USER.

Yeah We checked with the server team and the problem was that,they haven't installed the IIS server. They have only opened theTelnet service and because of this the FTP connection was hanging. Thanks for your help and valuable time
