FTP

[Guest]

I've been trying for weeks to setup an FTP site on my computer. I'm using
IIS, have my router forwarded properly, using dyndys.org, plus a forwarding
client. I'm very up on what needs to happen but still can't get it to work.
Does any have a step-by-step or a willingness to work directly with me on
this.

Thanks!
Jason

Assuming you installed SP2...

Perhaps the troubleshooting information in this article may help:

You may not be able to open a project when you try to connect to a remote Windows XP
Service Pack 2-based computer by using the AutoCAD FTP service

Here's how to correct the problem after opening Port 21 via the
SP2 firewall Exceptions tab:

1. Open Internet Explorer >Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab

2. Uncheck the box: "Use passive FTP (for firewall & DSL modem capability)
