Ftp failing to connect
I am using Linux, trying to connect to my ftp server using service-U in a remote data center. I have an always on vpn connection to the data center. From a windows box, I can ftp just file to the server, it from the Linux box, I keep on getting this error message.
First it says:
Connected to 10.2.x.x
421, service not available, remote server has closed connection
So I looked at the logs on my ftp connection and I didnt see any connection attempt.
Is this a Linux issue or my firewall, I'm thinking it's my firewall.

I'm not sure what version of Linux I'm running because I did not install it. How can I find out? What command or give me the version?
I looked at the logs on the firewall but I didn't see much, The firewall log didn't show anything at all, but there's a few more logs I can look at, I'll do that this morning.

In terminal:
$ cat /etc/issue
And
$ uname -a
And post both answers.

Thanks guys for providing that info. I tried disabling, but that didn't do it.
It was my FTP server blocking the IP address, after I deleted it from being blocked, it works now.

What does your firewall-log say?
