I have Filezilla server installed on a Windows 2003 server. I can connect from an XP machine using Filezilla client with no issues.

I need to connect from a CLI from a RHEL 4 server to the Filezilla server on Windows 2003 server, but the connection attempt just hangs. Both servers are on same private internal network. Any ideas?

use "netstat -an" on the windows server to see if you are actually connecting to port 22.

Have you tried looking at your firewall?
If possible, disable firewall(temporarily) on Win server to see if that helps.

perhaps check to see that the SSH versions are consistent on client and server.

Yes, connectivity on Port 22 is there. I suspect the version of SSH that filezilla server uses is conflicting with the installed OpenSSH versions on the linux boxes!

Thanks for the suggestion.
