Re: FTP Upload

OK, I am really glad I have found someone experiencing a similar
problem to me.

I have had an FTP script transferring files between my SBS2K3 server
and my hosted website server for a couple of years, triggered via a
cheduled DTS job.
No problems until a few weeks ago when suddenly the command line FTP
script kept hanging. On performing the script manually, it was haging
with a 425 error.

From my research this looks like the FTP sever cannot connest back to
my SBS client on the data port.
I reran CEICW and enabled FTP (it was not checked previously and I
believe this is only required if the SBS box is intended to run as a
FTP server).
This had no effect.

I tried many things with no luck. However, connecting through IE gives
me update access and I can copy to and download from the FTP server.

I then removed the SBS firewall completely (again through CEICW) and lo
and behold everything worked fine! Therefore, there must be an issue
with the SBS firewall.
The problem first began in the week when a number of automatic MS
updates were applied to my machines, including my SBS server. I want to
know if this coincidental or not, but as yet have only found this post
with a problem such as mine..

Gene, if you have got any further, please let me know.

Thanks,
Kris
