I have what seems to be excellent directions for getting into an FTP area for a VERY HIGH END client but even when I use the special port number, initial directory, etc, I get a time out error (not a server not found error). They are using www.domain.com and not ftp.domain.com which works to a point. ftp.domain.com gives a server not found error. Their prefs are set on passive and so am I, and treat mystery items as files. What other settings can I fiddle with to eradicate this problem? They claim they can get in just fine using WS_FTP ??? Very strange.
