Firstly,does the windows ftp client at least login to the linux box?Do you
get the ftp prompt?
Or does it infinitely keep waiting for the ftp prompt?
I don't clearly remember about the setting,but if u leave a connection idle
for some time,it'll report to you as "connection to host lost".This is normal
of telnet,ftp e.t.c.
Cheers,
Vineeta
