Passive FTP Setting

[Jason Broom]

Hello.

I'm trying to access an FTP site via IE 6.0. I have
followed the steps below to enable passive FTP access. The
problem is that 'Use Passive FTP' is not an option under
my Advanced tab. Any ideas?

You will need:

Internet Explorer 5.0 (or higher) - to discover your
version:
click on the 'Help' menu then the 'About Internet
Explorer' option.
ensure that 'Use Passive FTP' option is on to ensure that
webcaches and firewalls can be crossed.
run Internet Explorer.
click 'Tools' menu then 'Internet Options' - see tabbed
dialog.
click on the 'Advanced' tab - see list of options.
ensure that 'Enable Folder View for FTP' is not selected.
scroll down to the bottom of the 'Browsing' section, then
ensure that the 'Use Passive FTP' option is selected.
click OK

Hi,

If you're usng ie6, Use Passive FTP is an option. It is
further down on the checklist. It is the second option
up from HTTP 1.1 settings.
