Server Questions about Filezilla and Total Commader

[unforgiven]

Hi All,

I have a problem with mine server with Filezilla and Total Commader using thoes as FTP program,

Iff I give someone acsess, the person comes into the server, and see the directories were the files are in, then it stops, impossible to open the directories and when after some tries they open, there are none showed files ( witch I have uploaded there) and when I check them i have with the account I made full acsess and can download!

Could this be a firewall problem by the receiver?

So the receiver can't download the files

( I must say , i have some more people at the same time downloading, those can down and up without any probs!

passive and active mode in the FTP are installed as it used to be.

Hope some one can solve this prob!

many Thanks

Cheersz JW

Maybe those people don't have permission to see the files?

What could cause that problem since other people are able to download from JW's server?

Depends if he creates an account for each person. Then for each account for a person he must set up some permission, he can hide files for some of them...

Mike I asked for some help, he did some test, and figured out . firewall blocks the acsess!

but it did not solved the problem sofar, even when the firewall is out, the server can be reached, but with empty folders and a ? in the Map!

When I check the maps there are full files in it.....

To be continued.......... all help is welcome..

Definitely not a permissions issue in this case. Since you can only connect to his FTP via PORT (Active) Mode instead of Passive mode to get a directory listing it can cause issues for some people. I was able to successfully connect, get directory listings and download from his FTP using two different FTP clients.

Also think it's an problem of PORT Active or Passive. Maybe he should change the mode. Just open Filezille, go for "Settings" and on the top you can finde "Connection". There you can choose between "Active" or "Passive". Just give it an try.
