Can't find root folder/files on FTP Server
|
|
| Denny G. 2004-11-16, 8:48 pm |
| I installed an FTP server on my Windows XP Home desktop. I used 3d party
Cerberus server SW. All works fine with several of my friends who have
Windows 2K and Windows XP Home (SP-2 NOT installed); they can download
files. Another friend's computer that has Windows XP Pro with Service Pack
2 installed can log on to my server OK, but the root folder on my server
will not display, and he cannot download any files. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

| what FTP server is that ? as there's no IIS FTP in XP Home.
from your explanation, it looks like client side issue rather than server
site.
try disabled sp2 ICF (firewall) and see.....

Sure. First, it's not an IIS/FTP issue it's a third party FTP
program. Try their support. Second, it's one client that has
trouble. Look at the client and permissions for that client, not the
server software.

| Thanks, Bernard,
Windows XP home does not have the IIS built in; XP Pro and 2K do. I
therefore had to use a 3d part app.: Cerberus Server for single user,
FREEWARE I found on the web. Although not a IIS issue, I looked elsewhere
for help without any luck. I knew you guys would have an answer.

Thanks Jeff,
I have IIS/FTP set up on my laptop with Windows 2K and have the same problem
with the same client, however. I know it is not a server issue; I highly
suspect the Windows XP Service Pack 2 update on the client's computer. I
figured you gentlemen would be familiar with any FTP blocking issues arising
(regardless of server) out of the SP-2 installation. I've tried Microsoft
and other newsgroups without success.

Denny G.

| what application you use to login to the ftp server ?
if you use command line tool - ftp.exe to connection, can you login, do a
dir listing ?
if not, error ? ftp log ?
