Downloaded and installed Fetch 4.0.3, but I'm sorry to say the same result occured. I hope it's just something I'm missing...
Thanks again for working to fix the bugs and provide updates and support.

I wrote too soon...
I gave it one more shot and "toggled" the "PASV" setting (the current setting is unchecked) and it worked. I still receive the security warning when connecting to the server (the choice to select ignore or disconnect). When I click ignore at the error warning, I am able to connect to the server and the file list is displayed.
Thanks for the 4.0.3 update and sorry for the repeated posting.

When trying to connect to our Mac OS X 10.2.2 Server (Xserve), Fetch 4.0.2 fails to retrieve the file list. A successful connection is made to the FTP server, after clicking "ignore" on the error message warning the cleartext passsword is being sent to a server which supports security.
After a few minutes, Fetch fails to display the list and displays the error message: "Server response: Can't open data connection.
I have tried to toggle the "PASV" setting in the Firewall preferences, but no luck.
The Mac OS X 10.2.2 server is running the built-in firewall. Ports 20 and 21 have been opened to allow all requests.
I also tested connections to the server using other programs, i.e. Transmit from my OS X client, a Terminal session from my OS X client and WS_FTP95 from my Windows 2000 client and all programs could connect and display the file list.
Am I missing a setting in Fetch 4.0.2 or on the Mac OS X 10.2.2 server?
Thanks.
