    I'd recommend unchecking the "Use Internet Config" box in the General section of Preferences, and checking the "Use passive mode transfers (PASV)" box in the Firewall section of Preferences. Does that help?

    I havent enabled the use internet config on either OS X or 9.1 also tried the Passive thing with no effect. I have the exact same preferences in OS 9.1 where fetch works flawlessly. BTW I've copied the application from the OS 9.1 harddrive to the OS X harddrive so its not the same application.

    (Actually when I tested against the ASIP ftp server it seemed to work fine, unfortunatley I'm Unable to try again on that server which the transcript comes from, But I know that I did try that PASV there aswell, I was kind of desperate at that moment..

    Could you post a transcript of a session where PASV was used?

    No Im sorry I didnt save one of those :() I sat for hours and hours switching on/off things in the preferences, making new connections etc but I could only get it to work on the top level of the server, any other directory I opened then i started to give me errors.

    Question 1). If I enable PASV in the preference panel do I have to restart Fetch for it to take effect or is it enough to make a new connection ?

    Question 2) Why would the PASV setting matter on MacOS X and not MacOS 9.1 ?

    The settings were identical and it worked flawless under macos 9.1 but not under macos X.

    It's enough to make a new connection.

    Question 2) Why would the PASV setting matter on MacOS X and not MacOS 9.1 ?

    If there was a networking problem or limitation that was specific to Mac OS X, using PASV might work around it.

    This is the really nice thing about message boards, as I find myself replying months later. The answer is a resounding Yes! It does help indeed, and answers my question as to why Fetch wouldn't remember to use PASV mode. You need to uncheck "Use Internet Config".

    Thank you Jim! And Thank you lilliz for your original post!
