specifying a port number in DOS ftp?

[The Dancing Peacock]

I think I've done it before, but I can't seem to remember how.

Thanks 🙂

Maybe something like <hostname>:<portnr>?

ftp
open ftp.cdrom.com 21

like this?

Presumed he had tried that already 😛

The first way wouldn't work. doing open then the command on the second line works, but the server is down atm.
ie

This I think is what works
ftp
> open site.com port#

doing
ftp host.com😛ort#
or
ftp host.com port#
didn't work.

Thanks guys 🙂
