All i/o (ftp) not working on this SunOS 5.10

Hi everyone: I have been trying to simply FTP a file over to this SunOS 5.10 (which is same as Solaris 10 now) and nothing works!

I can only Telnet to this via SSH (with my own account/uid), and I can also send simple mail out with mailx, that's all!!!

I cannot FTP to it (I think FTP server is not installed/enabled on it? ) "ps -fe" and grep for ftp does not return anything...

I do not want to involve the sysadmin/root on this at all, but is there any way I can check to see how I can ftp? Or even upload my own FTP to this and launch server?
It's been killing me!

As a Last resort, can a Binary file be copied and pasted without losing it's binary data?? ( I highliy doubt this!), but if there are any "special" copy/paste programs to preserve binary, then I can do that, but this is really last last option.

Thanks,
Steve.

bup-ftp(1)						      General Commands Manual							bup-ftp(1)

NAME
bup-web - Start web server to browse bup repositiory SYNOPSIS
bup web [[hostname]:port] DESCRIPTION
bup web starts a web server that can browse bup repositories. The file hierarchy is the same as that shown by bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1) and bup-ftp(1). hostname and port default to 127.0.0.1 and 8080, respectively, and hence bup web will only offer up the web server to locally running clients. If you'd like to expose the web server to anyone on your network (dangerous!) you can omit the bind address to bind to all avail- able interfaces: :8080. EXAMPLE
$ bup web Serving HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8080... ^C $ bup web :8080 Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0:8080... ^C SEE ALSO
bup-fuse(1), bup-ls(1), bup-ftp(1), bup-restore(1) BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite. AUTHORS
