    a weird one here:

    using 4.0.2 on a beige g3 running os x, can't ftp to one site, but can to all my others. on occasion, i have ftp'd to this site. i tried another ftp client, captain ftp, but that also didn't work. haven't tried from the g3 using 9.2.2 yet. however, from an os 9.2 g4, i can ftp into this site using fetch 3.0.3.

    i have tried turning passive both on and off at the application level and at the system level. can traceroute to the ip on port 21. everything seems to be kosher.

    transcript:

    get_reply():con_conn->Getline() returns -3259
    ftp_list: -3259 (state == GETTING_LIST)

    the weird thing is that when i hit stop, fetch crashes.

    any thoughts?

    This sort of problem is usually caused by firewalls (or firewall software) on one or both sides of the connection. If you can ftp from the G3 running Mac OS 9 that might suggest an issue with firewall software installed on OS X. Another thing to try is the command line FTP client in OS X -- type "ftp hostname" in Terminal, and "dir" after you connect to get a file list.

    Thanks,

    so the solution to this issue turns out to be the following:

    the firewall in os x needs to have incoming ftp services turned on and passive tuned off in both fetch and os x.

    very weird.

    thanks though.
