It looks like a user/permissions error. Double-check your userid on the FTP session.

I can FTP the file from outside so the userid/password I assume is fine.

Hmmm, can you try a before telnet command and get a directory listing?

I am trying to FTP (get) from a Windows machine. Has anyone found similar problem ('is not a valid remote file') earlier.

Also my username for FTP contains '\'. Can this problem be due to that.Is there any way to debug. I am able to FTP from the remote server by telneting into the DS server.

i think the file should not be at users home directory.
but is should be in some directory where is shared across all compute node.
