BINGO! all commands now work. I need to now research proFTP configuration, I believe there is a setting regarding PASSIVE MODE. Let's assume Windoze ftp program runs in passive mode by default(?) Any security reasons to *not* set up the ftp server to default to passive mode, or to accept passive mode connections (whichever the config option is)? I suppse it's not a hardship to tell an FC3 ftp-er (s)he needs to set passive mode on connection, I can even put it in the Welcome message. (not that anyone ever reads it...). Setting "binary" seems to be a better mode then ASCII too, which seems to be a bad default. > > ftp> ls > > 227 Entering Passive Mode (xx,xxx,xxx,xx,xxx,xxx). > > ftp: connect: No route to host > > Is there a layer of network address translation going on between client > and server? The symptoms are the same using an identical FC3 machine on the same LAN, from machine 10.0.0.11 to machine 10.0.0.10 Thanks! bob
