All the machines are behind the same ActionTec DSL router/firewall. In other
words, the NT and Win2K machines that don't have this problem are behind the
same firewall as the Win2003 server that does have this problem.

This is a problem with the FTP client. I have not started the FTP server and
I deliberately do not run IIS process (because I don't want it to conflict
with the Apache Web Server). How do I tell what version of FTP? I believe
Win2003 Server has IIS 6. That is probably the version of the FTP
client/server too since IIS and FTP are both implemented with the same
program INETINFO.exe.

Thanks,
