(these systems are 1000 miles apart.) I can now ssh into my FC1 box and ftp back to the FC2 box, but when i try to just ftp from FC2 to the FC1 I still get the no route to host error. I never had this problem when they were both FC1. So I'm not sure what has changed, both have the same looking iptables and vsftpd.conf files. -- Doug Maurer doug@xxxxxxxxxxx Linux User #299439
