[SWLUG] FTP and new server help!

[Neil Jones]

Hi folks,

I am having some problems with a new server that I have rented. 

I am attempting to ftp to it to no avail kbear gives
"cannot connect to host" + ip address

attempting
ftp address
from the command line on my box here gives

ftp: connect: Connection refused

This leads me to think that FTP is not enabled on the box.
I can SSH into it.

I can't find any records of my attempts on the servers logs either, but
I am not entirely sure how to fix it?

Any ideas what is wrong?
