[Swift-devel] can we disable the gridftp authentication for swift on BGP?

[Zhao Zhang]

I tried this:
zzhang at login6.surveyor:~/swift/test> ftp -P 59829 
ion-10.surveryor.alcf.anl.gov
ftp: Name or service not known
ftp> ls
Not connected.
ftp> quit


Then I tried
zzhang at login6.surveyor:~/swift/test> ftp ion-10.surveyor.alcf.anl.gov 59829
Connected to ion-10.surveyor.alcf.anl.gov.
220 172.16.3.10 GridFTP Server 2.8 (gcc32dbg, 1217607445-63) [Globus 
Toolkit 4.0.8] ready.

This worked. And I am trying out more now.
