Re: BellSouth FTP server downsaid by dtm0:Thanks for the reply. Actually I want to redirect users to another host and shut the darn thing down but can't even upload the files. All I can say for AT&T on this is that it sure is a piss-poor way to run a railroad! In the case of the PWP servers, AT&T officially shut down that service for new users over a year ago, and only kept it active for legacy users who had a history of actively uploading and downloading via ftp. I suspect that they are now not even interested in keeping it alive for the active legacy users (but it would be nice if they admitted that instead of just neglecting the site and letting it die). FWIW, I can use a web browser and still access all of the files I have previously uploaded (http still works, only ftp is dead). If you setup your site's folders to be browseable, you may be able to access them with a web browser to retrieve them and copy them to another site. |

Thanks. What I want to do is replace them with pages directing people to the new site. |

I'm definately a legacy user and was able to upload several files on July 07, 2013. However the past few days I've not been able to attach. One thing I have noticed. If I put ftp.bellsouth.net into whois, I get a return of 205.251.137.82. When I put that into CoreFTP it actually attaches but says my password is incorrect. Previously the address showed as 216.77.188.73. When it was that, CoreFTP couldn't talk to the server. |

Previously the address showed as 216.77.188.73. When it was that, CoreFTP couldn't talk to the server. The IPv4 address 205.251.137.82 does indeed belong to ftp.bellsouth.net. However, for accessing the BellSouth PWP server you should be using the hostname home.bellsouth.net which is assigned to the IPv4 address 216.77.188.73. C:\>dig -ta home.bellsouth.net

The hostname ftp.bellsouth.net is a totally different server and it is not associated in any way with the BellSouth PWP service. Based on the cname entry att.autocalendarupdate.net for ftp.bellsouth.net, my guess would be that it is used for automatic firmware updates in DSL modems. |

I don't know what happened to the dns lookup information in my previous post. It looked ok when I previewed it, but it was garbled after it was posted. Since I have no way to edit the previous post, here is the same information again (hopefully it will display properly this time): C:\>dig -ta home.bellsouth.net

Nope, it still appears to be garbled after the actual post is made. Here is the information again, but this time done using different html code for the display: C:\>dig -ta home.bellsouth.net

Well, perhaps there is some hope on the horizon that AT&T may get the PWP FTP servers operational again. I just tried accessing my pwp.att.net and home.bellsouth.net sites and now AT&T has made home.bellsouth.net a CNAME alias for pwp.att.net (it was previously a CNAME alias for www.att.net).

FTP access still does not work, but at least this may be a sign that they are working on it instead of deliberately making it inaccessible. |

Oops, my previous FTP access example did not work because I fat-fingered the IP address. However, even when it is done properly, it still does not work (but hopefully a fix is now possibly on the way).
C:\>ftp 216.77.188.33 > ftp: connect :Connection timed out ftp> quit

For those that have web pages on this service, get something up there to direct people to a new location for your web page. Don't pass Go, don't collect $200, get something up to direct visitors to somewhere new now. |
