A bit more info.
In the last few minutes its been go and no go a few times. Then I found I had an ftp session China to Melb open, so I closed that. Then one ftp (pull by a pc in Melb from China) worked, went to another dir on same pc, failed.
Then I went back to China console and saw a msg from the JINETD job:-
13:05/#J1478/482/FTP CLOSE IP=192.168.2.248
Which we shouldn't see as its turned off somewhere.
I have seen this in the past, and IIRC it happened if an inetd file was unavailable (ie a store of @.sys was going on)....
INETDCNF.NET has security on, but is r,w,a,l,x:any
How often does INETDCNF get read ? surely not on every ftp connection ?
FTP connection from Melb HP to China now also works....
Very strange.

Now that's EXCEEDINGLY significant :) If you can get TCP applications working both ways, it greatly reduces the error possibilities.
Craig may have a point on buffers, as FTP will try to use HUGE ones, while telnet is optimized for terminal operations (small).
Otherwise it may be firewall intervention. You are not getting "anything" back from China on port 21 at all.
I'd have to defer to James Hofmeister if he's still around for any FTP-specific issues, he was the last grand wizard of the MPE ARPA applications :)
