I have installed lukemftp-1.6-beta2 ftp client which is IPv6 enabled. After installation, I have used the following command to connect to ftp
..]# ftp6 fe80::250:bfff:fe38:26f3%eth0
It connects to the ftp server successfully but when I tried to list the file through ls command I got the following error
500 OOPS: vsf_sysutil_bind
500 OOPS: child died
421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.
I am using vsftpd-2.0.1-5.i386 ftp server.
Any suggestions .why I am getting the this error.

You told the FTP client to connect to an IPv4 address, so no, the
client won't use an IPv6 address. No surprise here.

IPv4 socket.

Connect to the IPv4 address you gave on the command line.
Just give the FTP client the IPv6 address of your server, that should
work (if the FTP client understands IPv6).
