Hi there,

Do you have any error message? How do you try to connect (software + version)? do you try to access to your ftp server via a LAN or internet?

well if there were any error messages i wud have put em there ..it just hangs when u try to connect using ftp/telnet ..as for connection i just open the cmd prompt and type in telnet <server> and ftp <server> and finally its thru the LAN ( i dunno if any common sensical person would try ftp thru internet knowing that its blocked most of the times !!!!)
