No idea what you are talking about as you deleted all previous text. It =
sounds like you need passive FTP. Normal FTP both client and server =
computers are servers AND clients. One with the data (the server) and =
one with the control channel (the client).

Clients connect to servers. In FTP both computers connect to the other. =
Passive is client to server computers only.

Dear Tom,
=20
Sorry for so late to response to your reply on the
newsgroup.

I checked the firewall log, that the firewall drop
several TCP SYN packets that may cause the FTP hand
problem (seems waiting for server to connect to client
for file transfer).
=20
Could you please give me your email address that i
can send the screen capture, firewall log, etc to you.

BTW, I always test the XP SP2 on both my own FTP
server, production FTP server(both IIS 5.0, window
2000 server, service pack 4, with max. connections =3D
100, 000) and FTP server on IBM AIX. The problem
occurs when firewall is turned on.

The site: ftp2.de.nero.com is a reference site only
that my FTP site is located within my company's
intranet that can't let you try to connect for
testing. Sorry for confusing you.

I think this situation do not happen on individual
PC due to wrong config. or installation problem, since
i have also tested 3 new PCs, preinstalled with XP SP2
(2 HP, 1 IBM), the same problem occurs.

Thank you for your kind attention.
