Date: 2 Feb 1996 17:09:06 GMT Organization: American Technologies Lines: 18 Message-ID: <4etgfi$h27@tricia.msn.fullfeed.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 199.201.109.145 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 1.22 (Windows; I; 16bit) To: jlanders@fdldotnet.com,pwl1@fdldotnet.com We are having a peculiar ftp problem. I have tried many different ftp programs on the remote side and they all have the same simular problems. Users (remotes) login PPP to my server. Then they run their partictular FTP program. They connect just fine. Once they download or upload a program the connection gets lost or I get an undecipherable report and I have to reconnect. I think the problem occurs when it trys to relist the directory after the transfer. The file does transfer from the remote to the host ok. Somewhere after that is where it hangs up. Please help me locate the problem, I am sure it must be a simple fix for some of you wizards out their. Thanks James Landers ATI jlanders@fdldotnet.com
