    The fix for this was to use binary mode instead of ascii mode to do the get file
    transfer.

    So, at the ftp prompt

    ftp> binary

    and that allowed the download to work.

    Dave.

    Here is my original question

    I can ftp into a solaris 9 machine just fine as a regular
    user but when I issue
    a get command I get this error

    421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed

    Anyone have any ideas on why this happens?

    Thanks much!
