Hi, |
| 47 |
Not a solution just some suggestions: |
| 48 |
1.open port 20 (tcp,udp) on your firewall, beside opening port 21. |
| 49 |
FTP uses two port (control & data) both defaults to 20-data, control-21 |
| 50 |
(assuming an active-ftp session); |
| 51 |
2.Try using the ftp-client in passive mode. |
| 52 |
3.Check permissions on dirs. |
