| Code: |
tux localhost # lftp -u root rikell42.dyn.dhs.org
Password:
lftp root@rikell42.dyn.dhs.org:~> ls
ls: Login failed: 530 Login incorrect.
lftp root@rikell42.dyn.dhs.org:~>

Normally, the root user cannot log into any external services (except for ssh) for a very good reason - security!
Try a different user  |
