Thanks
FTP has been working almost always OK, except for a recent change to connection, which required a change of gateway on Melb HP.  The fact that a local winxp box in same subnet as China also gets the same error says it's a China HP problem to me. One buffer pool in nettool.net-Res->disp is unhappy, but is that enough, and how to rectify ?

Don't have an INETDESC.net file, just INETDCNF.net, which is as below:-

echo         stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
echo         dgram  udp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
daytime      stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
daytime      dgram  udp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
time         stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
time         dgram  udp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
discard      stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
discard      dgram  udp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
chargen      stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
chargen      dgram  udp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
telnet       stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS internal
bootps       dgram  udp wait   MANAGER.SYS /SYS/NET/BOOTPD bootpd
tftp         dgram  udp wait   USER.TFTP /SYS/NET/TFTPD tftpd
#nmbp    dgram  udp  wait    MGR.SAMBA /SYS/SAMBA/NMBD nmbd
#smbp    stream tcp  nowait  MGR.SAMBA /SYS/SAMBA/SMBD smbd
ftp          stream tcp nowait MANAGER.SYS /SYS/ARPA/FTPSRVR ftpsrvr



All I see from ANY attempt to connect to China HP is

From Dos windows -
ftp -d 192.168.5.40
connected to 192.168.5.40
connection closed by remote host.

From Melb HP:-

:ftp.arpa.sys;info="-d 192.168.5.40"
File Transfer Protocol [A0012003] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 2000 [PASSIVE SUPPORT]

Cannot connect to host: -d 192.168.5.40  (FTPERR 9)
Cannot connect to the given ftpserver on the hostname/ip_addr. (FTPERR 66)
ftp>

Without the attempt to use debug:-

:ftp.arpa.sys;info="192.168.5.40"
File Transfer Protocol [A0012003] (C) Hewlett-Packard Co. 2000 [PASSIVE SUPPORT]

Connection Failure
Cannot connect to host:  (192.168.5.40)  (FTPERR 9)

If "nothing" can FTP to china... maybe.  Are you getting the error on the initial connection, or once you attempt a transfer?

If on initial connection, insure "the firewalls" permit port tcp/21 inbound to China.

If on initial transfer, insure "the firewalls" permit port tcp/20
*outbound* from China.

If you can get an initial connection, you might try "PASV" mode in FTP once you connect (can cause other errors on it's own, but will deal with that when they come up :) ).

Did this "just come up" out of the blue after working before, or is this the first attempt?  You might check INETDSEC.NET to see if ftp is allowed in, or if there is any interference.  If there are IP restrictions, insure your source networks are defined in the China-side INETDSEC.NET.
