Jamie Day's Welling side will replay against Luton on Tuesday
Welling United ended an historic week with an impressive 0-0 draw at Luton in the FA Trophy.
Just days after supporters raised the £60,000 needed to save the club, they earned much-needed gate receipts from a midweek replay.
"I'm delighted, we rode our luck but we were first class," player-manager Jamie Day told BBC Radio Kent.
"The chairman's pleased we've got a draw and will play them again on Tuesday," he added.
Ebbsfleet United and Dartford also both played Blue Square Bet Premier opposition and both are in the hat for Monday's second round draw.
Ebbsfleet, who won the competition in 2008, came from behind to beat Hayes and Yeading 3-1.
Manager Liam Daish said: "It was disappointing to go a goal down but the lads played well and considering we've played no competitive football for over two weeks and have hardly trained they did really well."
Dartford held Crawley Town to a 3-3 draw but were two minutes away from beating the side second in Blue Square Bet Premier.
Dartford, who held 2-0 and 3-1 leads, will try again at Princes Park on Tuesday but manager Tony Burman was disappointed not to have won.
He said: "At 2-0 we were comfortable. We knew they'd come at us in the second half but at 3-1 we hit the post, they've gone up the other end, got a corner and then the referee's given them a penalty.
"Ryan Hayes had a chance to make it 4-1, but it wasn't to be. But I'm delighted with our players. We are still in the competition so I am delighted."
Cray Wanderers are up to fourth in the Ryman Premier Division after Leigh Bremner hit a hat-trick in their 4-0 win over Croydon, while Sittingbourne had the biggest win in Ryman South, 5-0 at Horsham.
Kent are down to just two clubs in the FA Vase. Herne Bay are through after a 2-0 win over Colliers Wood, while Beckenham's game was postponed for the second Saturday running but Hythe and Tunbridge Wells are out.
