Here's what I see (I have FTP running on port 9921):
Is this on 8021 by default?
Indeed.
[ed ~]# ftp leafe.com 9921 Connected to leafe.com. 220 leafe.com FTP server (Medusa Async V1.23 [experimental]) ready.
Does this depend on the version of Zope?
The port depends on how you configured Zope (in the configuration file for Zope 2.7, with "z2.py" options for Zope 2.6).
I have V1.21. I'm using Zope 2.6.2b3
The version number of Medusa can depend on the Zope version, yes.
... I don't see any prompt at all. I can login by specifying user followed by pass and then get a 230 Login successful.
That depends on your FTP client. My FTP client has a "verbose" command. I can use it to control whether the client should be verbose or quiet.
When I try ls I get
500 'ls': command not recognised.
What have I failed to do?
As said in an earlier message: It appears that you are talking directly to Zope's FTP server. It is unusual to do that. Usually, one talks to an FTP client which (in turn) talks to the server. -- Dieter
