Hello All...
I searched the archives and could not come up with a solution to an
FTP problem I'm having.
I have an OSX Tiger Server configured for FTP. Everything works
like it supposed to with both Fetch (Mac side) and FTP Commander on
the WinXP side. No problem.
However, I've been trying to get the WindowsXP box and Rev to
upload a simple text file to the server. No success. I have tried
Andre FTP utility, a couple others from the member area, my own
hacks using the examples in the rev docs, and finally Chip's FTPer
utility. None of them would work. The best I could see was that I
was getting a time out error.
I know there has been some discussion about passive/active/firewall
issues, but I wonder if something else isn't amiss. On my own local
network, with Win XP firewall on, I can upload to an OS X Tiger ftp
server without problems. I've had the XP firewall on since the SP2
release and have had no problems. I just reset the XP firewall
settings to "restore default settings" and still have no problems,
using both active and passive. (It seems to have upset my smb
connection though. :-( )
FTP severs will generally handle both passive and active requests,
unless specifically set otherwise. The problems over passive/active
generally occur at routers/firewalls between the client and server.
Some questions: (apologies if they have been answered already)
Is the server on the local network or on the internet?
Is the "OSX Tiger Server" running OS X Server or just plain OS X? (I
think they deploy different FTP servers, in case that's relevant.) In
my case, it's plain OS X.
Are you running any other "internet security" software on either the
client or server machine?
Can you get some log data using libUrlSetLogField in the client? This
might help pin down where the problem is occurring?
What version of Rev and libUrl are you using? ("put libUrlVersion()"
in the message box will give you the libUrl version.)
Cheers
Dave
