I'm trying to connect to a site using FTPES. It worked before on Fedora/Filezilla. But now I'm using Scientific-Linux with Filezilla, and it gives this. What am I missing?

Nothing personal, but you obviously need to do some more research on SL before asking about everything here. – htor Jan 13 '12 at 23:12
so your saying that this is not a filezilla-related bug? – LanceBaynes Jan 13 '12 at 23:16

With FileZilla 3.5.2 it works perfectly. With FileZilla 3.5.3 it produces the error message above. So it's a bug AFAIK.

The error caused by the GnuTLS Handshake Failure between the client and server. So, There is no issues with the ftp client - filezilla or TLS.Issues might be lies on firewall setting of your linux box
