    Question Can`t access local ftp from ubuntu

    I have two puters: desktop and laptop. Desk set to Windows 7 with Filezilla ftp server.Ftp is correctly configured. But when i am trying to access it from laptop Ubuntu 12.04 I get the message: No address associated with hosthame

    All machines get internet from Asus WL500gpv2 router (192.168.1.1). Desktop (192.168.1.2) connected with wire and notebook (192.168.1.3) connected wirelessly.

    Laptop pings desktop machine...Your thoughts about that?

    Try it from the command line and see what error messages you get.
    Code:
    nautilus ftp://Windows_Hostname
