Hi Matan,

Here is a link to the FTP protocol specification:
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc959.html

553 is broken down as follows:

5yz   Permanent Negative Completion reply

x5z File system - These replies indicate the status of the Server file
system vis-a-vis the requested transfer or other file system action.

This appears to be return code issued by the FTP server (appears to be
windows from your description).

The protocol specification provides additional details.

You may need to investigate a different FTP server for the windows machine.

Regards,

Sam
