(usagi-users 03734) Re: anyone using ftp6 ??

Jack,
Just a guess, but try enclosing the address in brackets:
ftp [fe80::212:3fff:fe25:2728]

I have to do this for an sftp client that I have.

hi usagi users,

is anyone using the ftp client from the usagi distribution?

if so, i want to ask, how does it work?

i can do an ftp <ipv4_style_addr>

and that is fine. if i do ftp <ipv6_style_addr>,

i get

ftp fe80::212:3fff:fe25:2728
ftp: connect: Invalid argument
ftp>

i try to specifiy the interface as ping6 doesnt and i get ...

ftp -I eth0 fe80::212:3fff:fe25:2728
ftp: I: unknown option
