ftp read fails

Hello All: I'm getting time out in ftp access from my machine to any number of domains for which I have ftp access. (Python's tools are working (as a check on this)) with 'trace on the entire process hangs. Here's last few lines: ************************************************************** Result: {150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.} (string) Result: {150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.} (string) Result: {150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.} (string) Trace: server-said (word) Result: {150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.} (string) Trace: parse-dir-list (word) Trace: all (word) Trace: [not passive not proxy listen-port port/sub-port: first listen-port] (block) Trace: not (word) Trace: passive (word) Result: true (logic) Trace: not (word) Trace: proxy (word) Result: true (logic) Trace: listen-port (word) Trace: port/sub-port: (set-path) Trace: first (word) Trace: listen-port (word) ************************************************************** this is with the following code: read ftp://log:[pwd--www--johnsons-web--com]/index.html I get different results with the following attempt: write ftp://log:[pwd--www--johnsons-web--com] read %ml.r connecting to: www.johnsons-web.com ** User Error: Server error: tcp 500 'STOR ': command not understood. ** Near: write ftp://log:[pwd--www--johnsons-web--com] read %ml.r Any ideas on what I can do to resolve this? regards and TIA -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com http://www.johnsons-web.com

Tim, I see "not passive" in the trace. Ftp usually fails first because active transfers are not supported by the server. Not sure if this works, but I think if you set passive mode in the ftp scheme: system/schemes/ftp/passive: true it might help. Anton.

You can get Core 2.3 user guide, very useful, here: http://rebol.com/docs.html Go there and download everything you see. :) Specifically Core 2.3 user guide is near the bottom. It contains a section for each of the network protocols. Anton.
