Is that the right name for the ftp server? The IP address it resolves to is not a valid IP address (255.255.255.255). My nslookup of that name gives me an IP of :

D:\WINDOWS>nslookup ftp.myweb.tiscali.co.uk

 

Non-authoritative answer:

Name:    ftp.myweb.tiscali.co.uk

Address:  212.74.114.60

 

Try connecting to that IP address instead of the name.

Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] Connect failure

 

I dont't know whether this is a WS_FTP problem or not.

I have 3 websites, 1 with my broadband ISP and 2 separate ones (with another ISP) that I have to dial in with.  In the past I have uploaded and updated these 2 sites with no bother using the saved settings.  I haven't done it for a few months but now when I try, I get     "finding host ftp.myweb.tiscali.co.uk

                                                                                       connecting to 255.255.255.255:21

                                                                                       Connect failure

I have no problems connecting to my broadband site.  Is there any setting I should change?  I have a ZoneAlarm firewall and my ISP is in the trusted zone.

 

Margaret
