'28053-DB_inventory_master_inventory_master_articles\20051130120007\Purchase_Order_Line_Items_1.sch' from the FTP site '28053-DB'.

The Publisher is a SQL Server 2000 Database (SP3A) running on Windows 2000
Advanced Server and the Subscriber is a SQL Server 2005 database running on
Windows XP Pro SP2. These databases on in diferent domains. I can ping the
machines from one another and I can see the FTP folder from the subscriber as
well as on the publisher.

Any ideas?
