Not sure if this is a firewall problem on my end, or if IBM's ftp server is messed up, can someone confirm?
I'm using SFTP client with passive mode enabled on Windows 7 64bit, Norton Internet Security disabled.
I'm trying to access software/integration/support/supportpacs
ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com
Tried logging in as anonymous
, password hello@foo.com
, keep getting errors from the server saying
The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was
found. Connection failed.
I confirmed it's not a firewall issue by making a test connection to ftp.ed.ac.uk

I tried this and it worked fine for me (anonymous as username, any password).
I wonder if the problem is that you are using passive mode ? When I attempted to connect and set passive mode off, the service ground to a halt.
