Ok, Are you sure that ot was from
me ? Please check the IP... I have looked up a couple of addies but don't
remember having a problem. I think that a firewall would cause a problem, that's
a no brainer.

My microcontroller is probably 12
times faster than the one you're using
now. (it's also smarter)

The Ipswitch KB seems to be down at the
moment. But if you have a system backup dated prior to the change over,
you need to export and import into your registry everything that was under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\iFtpSvc. Also the "security"folder
needs to be saved and imported into the new installation dir. The .acc
files in the server's root dir need to be saved and pasted into the new
server dir. I may have forgotten something, but if the previous steps
weren't taken, you will have lost your server's key ( if you had generated
one)and cert, all accounts, network settings such as IPs, passwords and
all, along with virtual domains etc.
The KB is back up. http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/FS-20000629-DM01.htm
V5
installs right over 4.0x with no problem. A complete uninstall isn't
necessary. But even if you wish to do a clean installation, follow the
instructions on the URL above and /changing/moving servers can be done in
minutes. For what it's worth, I always backup my drives to image before
making software changes. If I get into problems, or more work than I
anticipated for he time I have available, I start the restore process and
leave. Within an hour or so, it has restored, rebooted, went online and
I'm migraine free. If you have a bunch of accounts on your server, it may
be easier to restore your drive to its previous state, then follow the KB
and do it the easy way.
I agree with the other poster. Don't get
tough with the ipswitch techs who stop by to offer their help--- Pro Bono.
Although this is a "self serve" list, I like to read their posts, and
don't wish to do anything to discourage them from offering help. Some of
them probably do so on their own time.
