[X Newbies] FTP Question

[Raoul Armfield]

:Yes I have the ftp.domain.org, username/password correct.
:I've tried unchecking/checking passive mode although it's 
:checked on the 
:Os 9 version. The rest of the settings are exact and I've never had a

:What could be wrong telling me there is no host by that name?
:Thanks.
