FTP between VMS and Unix/linux

Cheroux Cedric — Wed, 30 Jun 2004 04:32:48 GMT

I try to copy via copy/ftp some files.

Unix server is just a snap (NAS) server.

With VMS 7.2-1 UCX 5.0A ECO 1 or VMS 7.3-1 UCX 5.3 ECO2 I have the same result.
TCPIP-E-FTP_DATACONF, cannot establish data connection with remote host
-SYSTEM-F-REJECT, connect to network object rejected

If I used VMS ftp client, it's the same thing but if I used Madgoat FTP client it works!!!

I passed through a firewall but ftp is authorized (works with madgoat between them).
No space in password, I have tried with passive mode and notruvms params but nothing works.

If someone knows...thanks

best regards

The fix is in an Eco (I do not know if it is available for Tcpip) and a workaround is available just defining some tcpip* logical name.

extract from the releases notes of Tcpip, here is the logical

ECO M 2-MAY-2003 Alpha and VAX

Problem:

FTP> connect host 10021 (non-standard server port) can result in
rejection of data connections from server:
%TCPIP-E-FTP_DATACONF, cannot establish data connection with
remote host
-SYSTEM-F-REJECT, connect to network object rejected
Connecting using the FTP command line, using passive-mode
transfers, or setting the TCPIP$FTP_ALLOW_PORT_REDIRECT logical
all avoid the problem.

Deliverables:

TCPIP$FTP_CLIENT.EXE V5.3-18M

Reference:

PTR 70-5-2296 / CFS.99537 / Req Id: HPAQH08XR / UCX Note 9756

Cheroux,

If youre in FTP, give
FTP> SET PASSIVE ON

This should do the trick. Ik know it started somewhere in an IP version.

$ COPY/FTP/PASSIVE=ON ....

etc
