[MBZ] OT FTP server set-up
How difficult would it be to set up an FTP server on a windows vista box? I guess I'm looking for an easy software solution, preferably free, that is not too difficult for a novice.

Re: [MBZ] OT FTP server set-up
Pretty simple. I don't think FTP services are in Vista, so you probably have to go third party or use a server OS. Let me do some research and I'll see.

Re: [MBZ] OT FTP server set-up
FTP services are available in the Business, Ultimate and Enterprise versions of Vista only. If you have one of these it's a matter of going into Windows features and enabling IIS and the corresponding FTP services. If you have the Home version you will have to use a third party solution.

Re: [MBZ] OT FTP server set-up
I've used HFS for a file server in Win XP, Vista 7 works good easy to setup. Description You can use HFS (HTTP File Server) to send and receive files. It's different from classic file sharing because it uses web technology to be more compatible with today's Internet. It also differs from classic web servers because it's very easy to use and runs right out-of-the box. Access your remote files, over the network.

I am not that familiar with this model, though I always thought it was fine! I do know the rear suspension is different and I have seen some sagging in the back; I guess they did not do proper maintenance? You will need to have someone with experience with the self-leveling suspension to chime in. 2. The black carpets in the back have faded of course, so at some point I will replace. All carpets are original and in good shape for 27 years. Talk with Rusty, (800) 741-5252, to see if they are still available. Ok, will do. 4. What is different about the transmission? As one of the other responders said, it has a torque converter with a higher stall speed. That will help starting off the line, but apparently will lower fuel mileage. 5. I think that is about it, other than anything I should know. Is there a group for TD Wagons? No need to go looking for another group for your wagon; there are several on this list that have 123 wagons. Hopefully, they will speak up. Awesome, signing off for the night, take it easy!

Re: [MBZ] Warning lights?
The alternator light wasn't coming on during self test before starting so I changed the bulb at which point it came on. No warning lights during running but no charging either, battery voltage only. I replaced the regulator and now I've got no dash warning lights other than the fasten seat belt light and the fuel gauge doesn't work. My Indy suspects that I broke a brush when installing the regulator or I managed to get the other electrical attachment on the regulator not on its mating face. I think one of those is likely, I didn't feel good about the regulator install. The regulator I installed was a different brand (KAE I think, the original was Bosch) and looked slightly different. A dig through my parts box found a used but probably good Bosch I'll install when the weather and my cold clear. -Curt Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:27:12 -0500 From: Mitch Haley m...@voyager.net To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: Re: [MBZ] Warning lights?

Re: [MBZ] Warning lights?
Both the large and not-so-large wires at the starter can cause a no-charge, no-lights condition. The battery feed to the large terminal is normally a hefty black cable. The less-hefty but still substantial red wire goes back into the loom, feeding the entire vehicle, including the ignition switch, charge circuit, etc, etc. On later W123 models from MY1982 and later there's a terminal strip on the inner fender. Presumably the W201 has a similar connector. A problem there would also cause a similar failure condition. D.

I had understood that the 240 and 300 designations had some direct relationship with the cubic inch capacity of the engine (240 cc's for the four cylinder, and 300 cc's for the five cylinder). Is this incorrect? As shipped from the factory, this is correct. Since I did not notice anyone else making this point, I'm ready to be told that I misunderstood. So correct me. You just don't have the background the others who have been on the list for a long time have. When I was in graduate school in Austin, Texas, I purchased a 1982 240D with an automatic transmission. After driving it awhile, the automatic transmission broke most severely deep inside. In looking at the options we had for getting it running again, - replacing the transmission with a rebuilt automatic, - replacing the transmission with a 4-speed manual, and, - replacing the engine with a 5-cylinder engine and replacing the transmission with a 4-speed manual, my wife and I decided to take the third option. So, I converted the car by: - changing the engine - changing the radiator - changing the flywheel - changing the transmission - changing the driveshaft by getting a correct one from a nearby wrecking yard and having it rebuilt by Driveline Service of Atlanta - changing the brake pedal hanger to one from a manual transmission - installing the clutch dropout switch for the cruise control - changing the automatic transmission lockout switch wiring to connect to the clutch dropout switch - installing the clutch master cylinder and hose to the brake fluid reservoir and hard line to slave cylinder - changing the differential - replacing the rear axle half-shafts - replacing the front brake calipers (which rusted in the Texas humidity from sitting so long) - changing the speedometer to match the new differential - improving the light pipes in the instrument cluster - replacing the seat upholstery and cleaning up the mechanisms - maybe other things I don't recall Complicating the process was the delivery of the replacement engine. The parts arrived in town and were delivered by one fellow and a truck with a narrow lift gate. As he started to lower the lift gate, the whole pallet fell off. (No, I'm not kidding.) It landed on the front of the engine and then rolled toward the passenger's side of the engine. It ended up resting, mostly upside down, on the rear end of the camshaft cover, the edge of the pallet, and the back of the transmissiion. My first post to an earlier version of this list about the problem was on 19 August 1999. The fellows on this list were most helpful in guiding me in getting the conversion done. Rusty, the sponsor of this list, was very helpful in getting me the parts I needed at good prices. After much haggling with the trucking company and the involvement of the Students' Attorney the University had as a benefit for the students, the trucking company took the original engine and transmission away and paid for a replacement (which came from Dallas not the east coast and thus were not rusty). Anyway, the car has been running well for about 50 kmi, until recently when it developed a diesel leak which I have not yet fixed.
