trying to connect back to my ftp site, and all I get is "host found, connecting"
then it errors out "an ftp error occurred-cannot make connection to host"

this could be any ftp site i try.

unfortunately, the site log doesn't show anything. and supposedly, you can use the site ftp log's command line but it doesn't do anything.

if I do it by DOS ftp it connects without any issues, haven't tried it with any other ftp program.


thanks for your help!

ther's nothing like answering your own question <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>=

the oddest thing ...

i had to add the ftp port at the end of the ip/domain name.


ftp.domain.com:21

shouldn't by default know what it is???

maybe there's a configuration somewhere that needs to be tweaked?

i've encoutered the same problem but even when i put the port 21 extension on the ftp address nothing changes. any suggestions? thanks! <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hi, only other thing besides the port number I can suggest trying is check "passive FTP" and see if that works.
