I have just installed FTP 7.0 running on my Windows 2008 Server. Created my FTP site OK using a local user account to login using basic authentication.
The server is sitting in our office. If I connect to the site internally (ftp://10.0.0.7), I am able to connect, see all files published. I can download these files. I can also upload new files.
If I connect from an external machine (one of our servers sitting in a data centre), connect with the same user as above. I can see all the files published, I can also download any of these files. I am not able to upload new files - and this is why I want the FTP site, to copy files from this particular server into our office.
The error I get is:
An error occurred copying a file to the FTP Server. Make sure you have permissions to put files on the server.
Details:
200 Type set to I
227 Entering Passive Mode (212,69,49,141,6,31)
500 Requested action not taken
The user I am connecting as does have read/write/list (everything except modify) rights to this folder.
Any ideas why I can't upload files from an external machine.
Many thanks
James
