I was looking for something on the moon this week and
got the same kind of error sporatically from the 'ls -ls' or 'dir'
command. However, when this occured, the 'ls' command would
work.
I ftp'ed from a SPARC-II.

200 PORT command successful.
425 Can't build data connection: Interrupted system service.I don't know enough about the innards of ftp servers and clients to be sure
where the fault originates, but dir works fine with other servers.
Downloading from the moon still works.My machine is a PC386 running SCO UNIX.
