Thanks to all who replied!

Originally, I was running Rev 2.7 on the XP box. So I went and tried it with 
2.6. Still no luck.

I took a look at the WindowsXP firewall settings and it was turned on. Turning 
off the built in WindowsXP Firewall allowed the ftp stack to work 
(Ftper)properly. Problem indentified!


I went in and looked at the firewall exceptions and Revolution, Revolution 2.6, 
and Revolution Engine for Win32 were all programs that were checked as 
exceptions in the Windows firewall settings.

In terms of active and passive ftp, the WindowsXP box was set for "Use Passive 
FTP" in the WinXP Advanced Internet configuration panel. I didn't think this 
could be an issue, since it worked when I disabled the Windows firewall. Not 
sure how I would check the OSX Server ftp service to verify if it was running 
in passive or active mode. Maybe something from the cmd line..?

My new question is what Firewall exception needs to be entered in the built in 
WindowsXP Firewall software to make the FTP stack work, without having to turn 
the built in Windows Firewall completly off?

Thank you!

Hi John, 

What version of Rev are you using? If you're on 2.7 and having trouble 
with FTP uploads, I suggest you contact Dave Cragg and get his 2.7 
libURL patch and try it again. I've had some problems with libURL on 2.7 
and FTP and Dave sent me a patch which fixed it. 

best, 

Chipp
