FTP Error Messages

Some nice info about ftp error codes so you know what they mean. I am sure you see them all the time and sometimes you dont know what they mean, so take a look here.

The most common codes:
421 - often means: too many users logged to the same account.

530 - wrong login pass, some servers auto-switch to 530 from
421 when they reach the max # of users. so notice the
error message attached to the code.

550 - common in Ratio site, If the file exsist it means you have no
access to the file or dir.

If you try changing directories in an FTP and you`re getting a 550
message, it means you don`t have access to the directory.

It doesn`t mean you don`t have access to a directory inside that directory. (Meaning when getting a direct path, log into
the path directly, not 1 directory by 1).

All others:

110 Restart marker reply. In this case, the text is exact and not left to the particular implementation; it must read: MARK yyyy = mmmm Where yyyy is User-process data stream marker, and mmmm server's equivalent marker (note the spaces between markers and "=").
