Hum... can you access/login ftp locally, I mean, from the same computer
where you run vsftpd?
"No route to host" may indicate an underlying networking problem, can you
even ping that machine?

I would also take a look into vsftpd log, just in case.

They were working at one point now I am having problem connecting to my
ftp server. This is what I get when trying to connect
johnny@xxxxxx:~$ ftp 192.168.1.101
ftp: connect: No route to host

Yes i can connect, know problem there

No route to host is a network level issue outside of ftp. To be clear
it has nothing to do with ftp.
Are both hosts using the same network subnet? For example, if one is
using 192.168.1.* and other is using 192.168.2.* then they will not be
able to communicate because they will be using different subnets. In
that case you would get "No route to host" exactly as you have posted.
Without showing us more information about your systems it is
impossible for us to help you further. The output of the following
commands on each machine would be useful.
$ ip addr show
$ ip route show

Looks okay. Those were the lines from the output with the information
I cared about. It has 192.168.1.102 address and the route looks
normal going to the local subnet.
But that was only one of the two. How about the other machine? The
above is only half of the information.

You have a 3rd computer available running Squeeze. Okay. That wasn't
clear in your earlier email.
Also a possibility is that you have a firewall blocking the connection.
Camaleón asked if you can ping the machine. Did you have an answer to
that question?

So FTP server is up and responding okay (at least to queries from
localhost or the local interface).
But it seems that you can't even ping that box, sir... You have to
resolve that first.
Tell us about your network setup, is there any firewall/filter or
something in between the two involved boxes?
