> I've been using WS-FTP in Windows XP Pro with no problems. Suddenly, it
cannot connect with any ftp server ("connection refused"). Checked all
settings and appear normal. Tried CuteFTP with same results. Another
computer using the same hub and cable Internet connection can connect
normally. Can't connect from the ftp command prompt ("unknown error no.")
either. The second part of the puzzle is that I can use dial-up to access
the server and WS_FTP works normally. Any ideas on what may have changed to
bugger up the cable access?
Have you recently installed a firewall, or turned on
the XP firewall, on the LAN connection?
That would have the effect of blocking the incoming
data connection on an active (PORT) mode FTP session.
Try flipping to passive (PASV) mode on the FTP clients.
