Very interesting now. I booted up another VAX,

7.3, and I was able to FTP to that one no problem at all. I
can telnet to the "bad" VAX no problem. Pinging is fine. I
can use DECnet fine between both VAXen. I can ping between both
VAXen.
So basic connectivity is OK, you just have an FTP problem.
When you say run a packet capture on the VMS end
do you mean
run a sniffer program actually on the VAX? If so I don't know
of any software for that, do you have a recommendation? I can
run a sniffer on the PC, which is connected to the same
switch (not a hub), as this is all on single segment.
I'm running UCX 4.0 and my UCX experience is limited, but on
my box "HELP TCPIPTRACE" is the place to start. For today's
problem, however, it's unlikely to help as you'll see an
attempted connection and a failure (SYN from PC, RST from VAX
at a wild guess). It might be worth a shot as it might
show that the initial connection works and something goes
wrong later on.
If I try to run UCX FTP on the good VAX to
connect to the bad
VAX this is what I get:
conn 192.168.0.106
%TCPIP-E-FTP_NETERR,
I/O error on network device
-SYSTEM-F-REJECT, connect to network object rejected
That sounds like nothing is listening for FTP.
Try:
$ UCX
UCX> SHOW SERVICE
Does that list FTP?

I sniffed the packets a few days ago and posted this in my first post:
Sniffing the packets I see a SYN from Windows, SYN-ACK from VMS and then ACK
back to VMS. 60 seconds later Windows resets the connection.
FTP is listed:
TCPIP> sh service
Service Port Proto Process Address State
FTP 21 TCP TCPIP$FTP 0.0.0.0
Enabled
TELNET 23 TCP not defined 0.0.0.0
Enabled
