Actually, the problem appears to be with Microsofts implementation (or non-implementation, as the case may be) of PASV ftp. We are able to ftp from all other applications, including netscape and WS-FTP, however, when we try and ftp to, for example, ftp.microsoft.com, using DOS or Internet Explorer, we are able to log in, however immediately upon doing an ls we receive an RST packet from the ftp server. I looked on the MS website and they state that Windows does not support passive ftp. As far as I can tell this is the problem.
