Re: [FW-1]

Hi Eric, very litle info given but i thought i'd try to help.. what are you existing rules for FTP? I made a script for the automatic download of virus updates from mcaphee and specified the target and destination systems  to be allowed to FTP adding the workstation 'IP' and destination 'IP' TCP/FTP allow... Also (nothing to do with the firewall) I've had problems using names to ftp and got around this by ftping the IP for HP ftp.hp.com [192.6.118.97] IBM ftp.pc.ibm.com [204.146.167.81] either way hope this helps, success.
