wget ftp:// not working any more
i been using acron job to transfer a database back from server to server as following :
wget ftp://username:pssword@69.93.xxx.xxx/vb.sql
it was working fine for several months
in the past 2 weeks it didnt work any more and i get the error message :
--01:02:17-- ftp://username:*password*@69.93.xxx.xxx/vb.sql
(try:20) => `vb.sql.1'
Connecting to 69.93.xxx.xxx:21... failed: Connection timed out. Giving up.
so am using now wget http://www.mysite.com/vb.sql and its working but i dont like this way for security reason
where can i start to find out whats wrong with wget ftp ?
the only thing i can think about is i changed the login password for the acount username and i changerd the password in the wget ftp cron job to be the same other than that i didnt touch any thing else
port 21 is open in the APF config
