[svlug] Local computer responds "connection refused"

[Todd G. Gardner]

Hello,

I am trying to ftp or telnet to another linux computer inside my LAN.  I 
can use samba to connect to the computer if it is booted into windows 
but when I ftp, finger or telnet to that ip address it returns 
"Connection Refused".  I can ping the box that I am trying to ftp to.

How should I connect to the system to ftp, etc...?

Thank you,

Todd
