    I have been using FETCH for quite awhile now, and up until recently was able to attach to this server. Now I get the following error message: "Error: the server dropped the connection (it may be too busy).

    I have been able to connect to a host of other servers except this one. I have tried turning PASV on and off as a way of testing this problem. I get this error message when I have it turned off.

    Worth noting, FETCH does appear to connect, the status shows "Getting files list..." but that is as far as it will go.

    I have had others try the server from other locations and had success. Any help in this matter would be great.

    Could you post the contents of the Fetch Transcript window after you get the error? Do you have any firewall software enabled on your computer (such as the OS X firewall in the Sharing panel of System Preferences)?

    Thanks,

    Jim, I am able to post the transcript. Would this be of value to you to see? I am not running firewall software on my machine.

    Can you get a file list at other servers (such as ftp.fetchsoftworks.com -- leave the User ID and Password fields blank) with PASV turned off?

    Could you try connecting to your server with PASV mode on and post that transcript?

    Thanks,
