Tjupp!

I can't get anonymous FTP to ftp.netbsd.org to work over IPv6:

kurtz$ ftp -a ftp.netbsd.org
Trying 2001:4f8:4:7:2e0:81ff:fe21:6563...
Connected to ftp.netbsd.org.
220 ftp.NetBSD.org FTP server (NetBSD-ftpd 20020615) ready.
331 Guest login ok, type your name as password.
230-

421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
ftp: Login failed.
ftp>


The client hangs for a while, until it times out and gives up, as can
be seen above. A packet sniff gives the following result:

< 220 ftp.NetBSD.org FTP server (NetBSD-ftpd 20020615) ready.
> USER anonymous
< 331 Guest login ok, type your name as password.
> PASS mer@
< 230-


I think IPv6 FTP to ftp.netbsd.org used to work; IPv4 FTP still works
fine.
