    I have just obtained Fetch 4.0.3 and I am running MacOSX 10.3.4. When I open a new connetion, the connection is e4stablished but the directory of folders at the site is not displayed (the doggy keeps running unitl pucker out, at least 20 minutes).

    The first thing I'd try is checking the "Use passive mode transfers (PASV)" box in the Firewall section of Fetch Preferences. Let me know if that doesn't help.

    I am having the same problem, I have attempted it with and without passive mode selected. I also get the same problem when I use "Terminal" in my Utilities folder

    sandrakingolt: Do you have the OS X firewall enabled in the Sharing panel of System Preferences? That might explain why non-passive connections aren't working.

    Thanks,
