Could you post the contents of the Fetch Transcript window after you get this error? It's listed in the Window menu.
Thanks,

Fetch SoftworksYes, here it is
"System Version = 0x860
Connecting to 24.156.87.42 port 21 (10/30/01 11:31:51 PM)"
Am I to assume that the coorect port needs to be assigned in order for me to connect? -

For this to work your home computer would need to be running an FTP server, such as NetPresenz (www.netpresenz.com) or Rumpus (www.maxum.com) or the server built into Mac OS X (see the Sharing panel in System Preferences). You would have to know your home computer's current IP address, but you probably would not have to specify a port number.

I cannot connect to my home computer from work to upload files. The message I get is...."the connection was refused by the server"
I connect to the internet by cable.
I have set the sharing control panel to read and write
I can connect through the browser to download files from my computer at home when I am at work by typing in the assigned IP address (IP address did not change)but have no way to upload. Has anyone encountered this problem? and is there a solution? Should I be configuring something somewhere in my control panels to allow my computer to acept uploads?
