    I have recently started to get this message - occasionally (but increasingly so) - when connecting to some NT web servers. If I refresh or drag a file enough times, it usually lets me in finally, but it's erratic. Any ideas? Below is the transcript from Fetch.

    250 Directory changed to /cards
    PWD
    257 "/cards" is current directory.
    PORT 65,207,19,34,147,39
    200 PORT Command successful.
    LIST
    150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
    ABOR
    426 Data connection closed, transfer aborted.
    500 'ÚABOR': command not understood.
    CWD /cards
    250 Directory changed to /cards

    LIST

    Thanks!

    I would recommend checking the "Use passive mode transfers (PASV)" box in the Firewall section of Preferences.

    I have tried checking Passive Mode, but am still having the same issue...

    However, I was able to get to a PC today and try with WS_FTP - and am getting the same error/issue. So, I suspect it goes "deeper" than just FTPing client software. It must be something on the host end that had changed...maybe something with WinNT - like a Service Pack upgrade or host FTP software or something on that end???

    Thanks anyhow!
