Can Login, but LIST fails

Post by themightyzog »

Hi, I'm newish to FTP - I have set it up and the login works, but the 'LIST' command always fails. So I tried another Client and it worked.
The CoreFTP logs says...
230 == Connected ==

SYST

215 UNIX Type: L8

Keep alive off...PWD

257 "/" is current directory.

PASV

227 Entering Passive Mode (193,252,158,112,12,255).

LIST

Connect socket #744 to 193.252.158.112, port 3327...timeoutAttemping Active mode transfer...PORT 81,77,94,66,105,41

Error loading directory...disconnected


- the other Client's log was...

<ACTV> 230 == Connected ==
<ACTV> SYST
<ACTV> 215 UNIX Type: L8
<ACTV> PWD
<ACTV> 257 "/" is current directory.
<ACTV> Refreshing Folder
<ACTV> PORT 81,77,94,66,4,83
<ACTV> 200 PORT command successful.
<ACTV> TYPE A
<ACTV> 200 Type set to A.
<ACTV> CWD /
<ACTV> 250 CWD command successful.
<ACTV> LIST
<ACTV> 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
<ACTV> Refreshing Folder
<ACTV> -rw-r--r-- 1 user ftp_mysite 114651 Mar 21 11:43 1871example.gif
etc.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong. I've made sure that ZoneAlarm allows both access & server for CoreFTP. I am also using Avast (for the first time).

CoreFTP worked okay before my machine crashed & I had to re-install Win2K.

Would appreciate help as this is a great program
Thanks

You were 100% correct - it was half ticked - thank you very much. I can now continue to enjoy CoreFTP
Thanks
