Subject: IP FTP


The idea of this script is:
1.  Download ftp file.
2.  Mail to some user (have not done that yet (yes this is essentially
my first script)

I am trying to incorporate some error handling so the script needs
1.  To test if machine has Internet connection
2.  check if ip is connectected.

This is where i fail to understand why this does not work.   The script
essentially just times out

/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/ftp.rb:159:in
`initialize': Operation timed out - connect(2) (Errno::ETIMEDOUT)

in the terminal i get under 1 sec response times.

Thank you in advance



if Ping.pingecho(ipMainAddress, 2) == true then
  ipAddress = ipMainAddress
elsif Ping.pingecho(ipBackUpAddress, 2) == true then
  ipAddress = ipBackUpAddress
else
 puts "Check the following 3 things: "
end

# ftp = Net::FTP.new(ipAddress)
#
#   ftp.login(userId, passWord)
#   ftp.getbinaryfile(fileName)
#   ftp.close
