Hi:
I have two macs running YDL (3.0 on BeigeG3 and 2.3 on
7600/233). The are connected via crossover cable, set
with IP addresses, and they ping each other with 0%
signal loss. (Later I will be setting them and
several others up on a router, for a small home/office
network, mixture of MacOSX and YDL 3.0).
I want to transfer files between the two via ftp or
some other method. I am sure (from pinging) that they
are network-connected. But when I try to ftp from
either machine into the other to get something I get
an error message in from ftp, saying 'connection
refused', from either side.
How can I transfer successfully (and hopefully,
painlessly)? Is there something more that I have to
do with setup & installation? Does there have to be a
ftp service listed in the services configuration
panel? How do I set this all up?
Note: I know how to and can currently transfer between
a MacOS machine and a YDL box, using atalk/netatalk.
That part works just fine.
Thanks,
Dave Purdy
