Can"t "get" from ftp folder

I have the Windows Firewall running and added port 20 & 21 to the
exceptions. When I try to browse the folders using IE I get 'The operation
timed out' although I'm connected.
If I disable the firewall, I can browse the folders but when trying a Copy
to Folder I get a different exception:
'An error occurred copying the selected items from the FTP folder.
Details:
200 Type set to I.
227 Entering Passive Mode (IP address listed)
550 file_I'm_trying_to_get: Access is denied.
550 file_I'm_trying_to_get: Access is denied.

The server is Windows 2003 SP1 Standard Edition.

Any idea how to correct this?

Thanks for any help,
Joe

Re: Can"t "get" from ftp folder

If you still getting the error msgs after you disable the firewall, then
something else in between is blocking those passive mode requests.

Try connecting locally via ftp.exe and see if it works for active mode.

Re: Can"t "get" from ftp folder

Hi Bernard,

I get the same problems when trying to get using ftp or IE locally on the
machine.

Any ideas?
