The reason you are getting this error could be the firewall settings IP address needs be configured with your NLB IP address. http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/309/configuring-ftp-firewall-settings/ Cheers, Santhosh visit my blogs at http://blogs.msdn.com/sansom

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact FTP 7.5 does not support SFTP (SSH FTP). It only supports FTP and FTPS (FTP over SSL). You can review firewall settings and your site settings. For example, if you configured FTP host header, you must use <host header>|<user name> to log in. http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/320/using-ftp-virtual-host-names/   Lex Li Support Engineer at Microsoft --------------------------- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact Tried all day long we are still getting some strange results.   From an XP machine - cmd line work just fine to the FTP site.   From an Windows 2008/Vista cmd line - we get connection refused. All we want is a simple FTP site restricted by a group membership ,  in windows 2003 this took seconds.    Now with Windows 2008 we are getting these strange results.

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact I suggest you first have normal FTP working, and then try to configure FTPS. Besides, if there is any error, please paste the complete error messages here. Note that both FTP command and IE does not support FTPS. So don't expect they can be used to test FTP 7.5 FTPS. There are third party clients you can use, such as FileZilla.

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact That is our goal to get FTP to work. From an Windows XP - Cmd line - We can FTP no problem -transfer data to and from From an Windows 2008/Vista - We get "ftp: connect :Connection refused"  - nothing in the in the FTP logging All we want to accomplish is:     Is a FTP site that is restricted by group membership(domain security group) - using port 21 ?    But for some reason this is not that simple in FTP 7.5        Does anyone have those instructions or URL I could look at?

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact Can you provide a screen shot of the command prompt containing all the lines including the error message? I think this must not be the first line. FTP command uses active mode to transfer data, so it is possible to fail under some scenarios. What if you use Internet Explorer to access the FTP server? Or at least access the FTP server on its own using FTP command? If this works, it indicates the road blocker is firewall or other networking factors and a networking expert is needed.

  Re: FTP 7.5 - Windows 2008 Reply Contact Can you post the command line ftp.exe output for XP, Vista/W2k8? If it works on XP, it should works on Vista/W2k8. C:\>ftp yourserver Connected to xxx.xx.xx 220 Microsoft FTP Service User........... Login and do a simple dir listing. post the full output from XP and Vista. Next, if you got nothing in ftp log, it could be the you are connecting to it at all or connecting to somewhere else.   Cheers, Bernard Cheah
