Hello,

System:

# rpm -q python m2crypto
python-2.4.3-27.el5
m2crypto-0.16-6.el5.6
# cat /etc/redhat-release

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)

I have the following method:

def ftp_tarball(aggregation_dir, date_format, ftp_server, ftp_user,
ftp_pass):
date = datetime.today().strftime(date_format)
ftp = ftpslib.FTP_TLS()
ftp.connect(ftp_server)
ftp.auth_tls()
ftp.set_pasv(0)
ftp.login(ftp_user, ftp_pass)
filename = aggregation_dir + 'zultys-logs_' + date + '.tar.gz'
short_name = os.path.split(filename)[1]
tarball = open(filename, 'rb')
ftp.storbinary('STOR ' + short_name, tarball)
tarball.close()
ftp.quit()

This works perfectly with VSFTPD on Linux, with SSL forced for non-
anonymous users.

I try to connect to a supplier's IIS FTP server, and get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

resp = self.getresp()
File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/ftplib.py", line 216, in getresp
raise error_perm, resp
ftplib.error_perm: 501 Server cannot accept argument.

A colleague is able to connect using the Filezilla client, configured
as servertype: FTPES - FTP over explicit TLS/SSL setting.

I've not been able to find any further guidance on the web.

If you've experienced this before, or can see something that I've
obviously got wrong, I'd appreciate your help.

TIA,

S.
