cannot get any ftp to work

MutantTurkey · 2010-02-07 19:29:33

I can't seam to get vsftpd working, ( or any ftp daemon for that matter)

my /etc/hosts.allow are correct, my /etc/services is correct, my vsftpd.conf is setup also.

even nmap reports that ftp is open:

 PORT   STATE SERVICE
 21/tcp open  ftp
 22/tcp open  ssh
 80/tcp open  http

Any other ideas? i keep getting the error:
ftp: Can't lookup `192.168.1.5:ftp': Servname not supported for ai_socktype

maybe it is something with my /etc/hosts:

 127.0.0.1        localhost.localdomain    localhost linus-server

or /etc/hosts.allow

 
sshd: ALL
vsftpd: ALL

help would be great!
