Subject: Having problems doing ftp to master?

I am unable to ftp files to master.  I have tried from several
different platforms, so I assume the problem is not with me.

I get this error.  The error line takes about 30 seconds to show up.

ftp> put mkfixedhier
200 PORT command successful.
425 Can't create data socket (206.139.73.161,20): Address already in use.

Can anyone shed some light on this?  Getting the files from master
works.

Something similar with me yesterday but it seems to be fine now.

Apparently it was a bug in Linux 2.0.1 which was fixed in one of 2, 3,
or 4.
