Connect to ftp using java

[vallikasturi]

Hi,
I need to connect to ftp and get the names of the files...
But am getting an UnknownHostException when i gave the ip..
Following is my code

import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient;
import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPFile;
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import java.io.IOException;

public class FtpTest {
  public static void main(String[] args) {

   try{
    FTPClient client = new FTPClient();

    client.connect("ftp.111.111.111.111");
    
    client.disconnect();

   }
   catch(Exception e){
	e.printStackTrace();
   }

  }
}

My IP is different than what i mentioned above..
Am getting the following error...

java.net.UnknownHostException: ftp.111.111.111.111
	at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:177)
