Well, my ftp server is not working, i am forwarding port 21 on the ip of the server. I set up the ftp, and i added the user Administrator, so when i go to log on locally or remotely, it prompts me for a username and a password.. so i do

Administrator
********
and i hit enter, and nothing, it just clears the password section and highlights the user name. Is there anything special you have to do in windows 2003 server to get it to work? Thanks

you shouldn't allow "administrator" account with ftp access. you can get rooted big time.

I am having the same problem. I read the article and followed it to the letter and I still can't login to my FTP site. I checked my NTFS permissions and Group Policies and can't find anything amiss. I am using Isolate Users. I am thinking of deleting the site and redoing as a Do Not Isolate Users just to test Anonymous Login and see if at least that works. Any suggestions?

I found a solution to my problem some time ago but in looking back to this thread noticed no one had ever included a solution. This is what worked for me. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;555022 I never had a problem after I configured PassivePortRange.

also forward port 20.

FTP works on the main port 21 (or whatever you choose) and the data port which is the main port -1.

Therefore if you're using 21, it would be 20.

It sounds like you just aren't getting your data connection, but you are getting your main connect.

try this now

ftp://ftpuser:user@69.169.149.34

it should work.. if your right about port 20.. :)

thanks
