Chaps, I've spent 30 solid minutes checking every option in sight and following links to the end of the Internet I've made one possible step forward.
In the IIS ftproot bindings I noticed the IP address was present, so I changed it to *All Unassigned*. Now ftp.exe is working nicely. FileZilla connects but times out listing the user's folder contents. IE prompts for a user/password and seems to connect but soon says "page can't be displayed". So it's neither fixed nor broken now, I'm left in a bewildered state where I don't know what's right or wrong. What else would you expect?! *Greg K* On 12 March 2014 14:59, Paul Evrat <[email protected]> wrote: > > Router port open and port fowarding set up? > > > > > > -------- Original message -------- > From: Stephen Price <[email protected]> > Date: > To: ozDotNet <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [OT] FTP diagnosis > > > Ah yes, you did try that... > > This link here has some stuff on it regarding permissions (file based - > step 3) so might help? > > > http://www.iis.net/learn/publish/using-the-ftp-service/configuring-ftp-firewall-settings-in-iis-7 > > > > > On Wed, Mar 12, 2014 at 11:21 AM, Stephen Price <[email protected] > > wrote: > >> Have you tried FTP from command line? >> >> might give more info? >> >> >> On Wed, Mar 12, 2014 at 11:12 AM, Greg Keogh <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Folks, for the first time in a couple of years I have to get FTP working >>> on a Win2008R2 Server.
