FT03 and ftp issues

[Guest]

I have recently upgraded to 2003 from 2002.

I also switched from DSL to satellite connection.

the issue is i cannot ftp to ftp sites using FP03. They are not sites i have previously used http on, and have no FP extns required (hence the use of FTP within FP) and so i have not broken any server extns.
i use the publish command
**
i can however use http using FP, on those sites i use the extns on without any issues
**
i state that point as i was concerned that using a satellite connection - the latency would be an issue, it appears not to be.

i can see all ftp sites and move files using a dos shell, and cuteftp.....but not using FP2003....my reasoning now, is that i have an issue with the software, that i am unable to solve.......
i use windoze2000pro.

any ideas ??

Are you specifying the remote FTP location as an FTP URL?

For example:

ftp://ftp.mydomain.com/public_html/myweb

Also, does the remote site requrie secure FTP? FP2003
doesn't support that.
