This is presumably the cause of your problem: sysinstall isn't even able to get access to that machine. See the ftpd manpage for information on setting up anonymous FTP on that machine, or try and figure out why you can't connect via FTP as yourself. Have you tried FTPing to your account on that machine using an FTP client, not sysinstall?
