FTP Basic Target Type

The FTP Basic check includes the creation of connection socket to your FTP server (by default on port 21) and waits for positive reply with status code "220" as defined in RFC 959.
If the FTP server doesn't reply with valid '220' welcome message, the check is marked as unsuccessful with an "Error in response" status.
