catherine-oates-computer-2:~ stephen$ ftp
ftp> ftp ***.***.***.***
Connected to grafias.lunarpages.com.
220---------- Welcome to Pure-FTPd [TLS] ----------
220-You are user number 2 of 50 allowed.
220-Local time is now 22:09. Server port: 21.
220 You will be disconnected after 15 minutes of inactivity.
Name (***.***.***.***:stephen): anonymous
421 Unable to set up secure anonymous FTP
ftp: Login failed.
ftp>
