ftp site....

[biss03]

Jay... have you gotten enough to do the upgrade yet? I'm hoping you are working on it as I type because i can't seem to find the site for some reason when i click on the link above.

[Joels]

it works for me

I can't seem to access it either.

It works for me. Make sure all of you WindowsXP SP2 users who are using IE to access the FTP site have Passive mode disabled (to do that in IE go Tools | Internet Options -> click on the Advanced tab -> scroll down while looking for "Use Passive FTP" and uncheck it).

That did the trick! thanks bullines!

[biss03]

sweeet! that worked for me too. Thanks bullines!!!

[Kannon]

Nothing works for me!

Ive tried the passive ftp in internet settings, contacted our administrator,he contacted his boss. His boss tried to get on and couldnt, and concluded they need to go through whoever does our networking. All claiming firewall! When I got home I can get on there. Only problem is I dont have mastercam there, so it dosnt do me good. Why do I feel everyone sees the ftp site but me?

Someday I get in there...

Then there's a good chance that it's the firewall Perhaps someone in charge of the firewall has TCP traffic on port 21 disabled (you need that enabled to access FTP sites).

Thanks Bullines,

I contacted our administrator, and hes taking the info to our networking division.I was getting kind of frustrated wondering if I was the only one with the problem. It seems everyone just unchecks the ftp passive in their internet settings and they are in. Now I have something else to try.

 

Thanks again,

Brian

hey bullines,

at home i have norton internet security, which i believe has a firewall of some sort..what would i have to do since i would be considered the administrator..when i do the passive thing, nothing happenens...should a person reboot right away or is that not necessary...seems like i'm having same trouble as kannon123...

I will try and see waht we can do to make this easer.

NIS should open TCP port 21 by default. I haven't used it in ages so I can't walk you through opening the port again. As a test, try disabling NIS and see if you can log in.

thanks, i'll be sure to do that as soon as i get off work..

Try this link. I too could not find the site. It was very frustrating. For some reason, this link works. Just navigate to the mastercam folder.

 

If it says begining ftp transaction, and hangs, then your passive settings are wrong.
