ftp from windows 7 to linux ftp server

[Shenno]

hiz,
i gotta a small issue "i hope =)"

i've installed ftp server (vsftpd) on redhat enterprise edition ..

i tested the ftp server locally from this linux machine, it worked gr8...

i tried to connect via local windows 7 machine with ftp client called leap ftp, but it doesn't work !! just 10 secs. loading then outputs "connection field" , i switched off windows 7 fire wall, but still not working !!

i tried to connect using web browser like this ftp://192.168.1.2

also fails !!

any ideas ?

thx in advance

i did actually fix the issue..

the problem was blockage to port 21, i did fix the issue by doing :
nano /etc/sysconfig/iptables

then add the line :
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 21 -j ACCEPT

ten restarting the service using :
/etc/init.d/iptables restart

thx all, hope it's helpful to anyone who got the same problem..
