Hi,
I can publish from Publisher (File/Publish to web) on one computer that
runs Windows XP Professional.
Doing exactly the same on another computer that runs Windows XP Home
brings up an error message:
"Cannot connect to the FTP server on the computer named
members.optusnet.com.au"
Further info:
"This error message is actually associated with an attempt to access an
FTP (file transfer protocol) web site through a fire wall / proxy server
and the proxy settings are not set correctly to gain access. To avoid this
error message change the FTP proxy settings to allow access to the site"
I have gone to Control Panel / Security Centre and added Publisher to the
Exceptions but still no luck.
I have turned the firewall off but still no luck.
Are there other restrictions on Windows XP Home?
Thanks for your time,
Jeanette
