I have allowed FTP access on a computer on a network that sits behind a DHCP router. I have set up a user named "FTP" and assigned that user a password. I have given that user "No Limits".
From a remote computer (outside the local area network) I am able to log in to that user's directory using the FTP program Interarchy and upload a file to it. When I go back to that directory from the same remote computer using Interarchy, logging on with the same username and password as before, I can no longer see the file that I uploaded. So I cannot download that file, which was the point of my test -- I wanted to make sure that someone could download a file through FTP if I gave them the address, username and password. Any ideas on why I can successfully upload a file via FTP, but cannot download that same file? | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be September 27 at Pitt Academy, 6010 Preston Highway. | The LCS Web page is <http://www.kymac.org>. | List posting address: <mailto:macgroup at erdos.math.louisville.edu> | List Web page: <http://erdos.math.louisville.edu/macgroup>
