transfert ftp

[ANDRE David]

Hello,

i try to transfert ftp from my node ( 172.26.22.100 ) to another site ( 194.78.229.130 )
i have the following error :
ftp connection time out.
I think i should add a new route to the system

On VMS system, i just add the route on Ucx. and the transfert ftp is ok.

On Unix, i don't know the command.

Can you help me?
Thanks
David

David,
its route add {host|net} destination {netmask} gateway count.
something like "route add host 194.78.229.130
255.255.255.0 1".
Are you sure it's a routing (and not firewall/proxy) problem?If the ftp site is remote and your external router knows how to
return ftp/tcp/ip to you back you should not define a static routing to ftp site.

Regards,
Zeev

add a default gateway:
route add default 192.9.200.1 1

add route for a specific computer:
route add host 192.9.200.10 netmask 255.255.255.255 192.9.200.254 1

add route for a subnet:
route add net 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 192.9.200.253 1

Hi David,
You can use /etc/set_parms command in superuser mode. First try the command without arguments, then type the command with the option you need.

For example:
/etc/set_parms
Usage: set_parms
Where can be:
hostname
timezone
date_time
root_passwd
ip_address
addl_netwrk

then you can try:
# /etc/set_parms addl_netwrk
