What command is used to connect to another machine now?
Used to be 'connect ip-address'. Doesn't work now.
What is the connect command?

Nope, it's 'ftp ip-address' before you get the ftp prompt.

If you use ncftp you will be much happier.

I didn't see a Windows version.

I tried it on my linux box. Had CrossFTP server running on Windows box

with anonymous account. Says: CrossFTP Server ready for new user, then:
Can't connect, Authentication failed. How do you fix this?

I didn't see a Windows version.

ftp://ftp.ncftp.com/ncftp/binaries/ncftp-3.2.2-win32.exe

I didn't notice your were from windows. ncftp uses an interface similar
to a unix shell. Including bookmarks, tab completion and other goodies.
If are used to a unix sh shell, then you will like it.

Maybe you need to tell it your password and username?

A snip from the ncftp manpage

open Establishes an FTP control connection to a remote host.
By default, ncftp logs in anonymously to the remote host.
You may want to use a specific user account when you log in,
so you can use the ‘‘-u’’ flag to specify which user.
This example shows how to open the host
‘‘bowser.nintendo.co.jp’’ using the username ‘‘mario:’’

open -u mario bowser.nintendo.co.jp

Here is a list of options available for use with the open
command:

-u XX Use username XX instead of anonymous.

-p XX Use password XX with the username.


You can also pass those options with the invocation of ncftp.

Do you mean gftp?

I thought you were looking for a command line program, never mind.
Did you know that if your are using gnome, then nautilus has ftp built in.

"nautilus-connect-server" is the command to start it.
Maybe from your places menu, if you have one.
