Sorry about that...
a) yes, I can ping from the remote machine, IP is correct
c) they are on the same lan and there is a firewall on the ftp server
d) both are running windows xp and I was just using the command prompt to
open the ftp connection

I just tried turning off the firewall and it connected! is there a way I can
keep the firewall up for this to work?
Thanks.
