How to do a simple ftp get?

[tpx]

I've been ftp'ing for decades but can't for the life of me figure out how to do a simple 'get' with everything's ftp server. I set up the server on one PC, and able to make a connection, but nothing works. Here's an example, and I am using ftp.exe on XP, so entering PASV mode is already a dead end I have encountered. Help please? Here's my pathetic transcript, TIA:

C:\>ftp 192.168.1.150
Connected to 192.168.1.150.
220 Welcome to X's Everything ETP Server version 1.2.1.371
User (192.168.1.150:(none)):
230 Logged on
ftp> cd /
250 Directory changed to "/".
ftp> dir
502 Command not implemented, use PASV.
500 Data connection failed.
ftp> ls
500 Syntax error, command unrecognized.
ftp> get ftplog.txt
502 Command not implemented, use PASV.
550 File not found.
ftp> get ftplog.txt
500 Data connection failed.

"Everything" does not support the PORT command.

The built in FTP client with XP will not work with "Everything".

Please try using your web browser or the command line interface available from:
http://www.voidtools.com/download.php (only works locally).

I have added support the PORT command to my "Things to do" list.

Thanks, I thought maybe I was doing something wrong, I've been using XP ftp to 'get' for past 8 yrs., before that I used WSFTP in Win/98, & occasionally use AS/400, never had a prob. Also, at the end of that transcript Everything hung on the server, I had to reboot to kill process, thought you might want to know.

BTW, Everything is great, I plan to donate when I start earning again.

I have added support for the Windows FTP command in the latest alpha available here.

"Everything" is not a FTP client.
You might like to try FileZilla.

To copy files from and to your computer File transfer protocol utility program is used. Those computers may be at different locations. Besides this, I hardly know more. The post was helpful in knowing how this works actually. Thanks for the information.
