For some reason, a machine I can manually ftp to does not work through rebol. My proxy settings seem to be ok, because when I try to access the site anonymously, I get back a denied msg. However, I am confused as to why a REBOL read operation would be denied because of attemting to *write* on the port. >> read ftp://19.105.186.51 connecting to: 19.105.186.51 ** User Error: Server error: tcp 530 Anonymous FTP access denied.. ** Where: read ftp://19.105.186.51 >> read ftp://ftp_xing:[EMAIL PROTECTED] connecting to: 19.105.186.51 ** Script Error: Cannot use write on this type port. ** Where: write-io sub-port #{05020002} 4 read-io >> system/schemes/ftp/proxy/host == "proxy.esn.instinet.com" >> system/schemes/ftp/proxy/port-id == 21 >> system/schemes/ftp/proxy/type == cern >> Get your FREE Email and Voicemail at Lycos Communications at http://comm.lycos.com
