This might be an obvious suggestion, but have you set up user accounts for the users that are trying to log in? What message are the users getting in their client program when they try to connect?
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of John Hopkin Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 6:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] Really dumb question I've installed ws_ftp pro server 4.0 and auto configured it. I can ftp into my own computer, but I have no idea what address to give friends so that they can ftp into my computer. I checked all the faq's and the programs help file. For example, say my computer name was Xxx-Xxx. The default host name would then be Xxx-Xxx. On my computer I can ftp into ftp://Xxx-Xxx/myfolder but if I give someone that address with userid and password and they create an account in their ftp client, they can't connect to my computer. Can someone tell me what the address would be? I tried changing my host name to my IP address, but then even I can't get in. Help please. And no giggling!
