The website that I'm trying to ftp to is not the Sambar Server, but an internet server that I use for my website. But I do need to use a user name like [EMAIL PROTECTED] in order to login to that server. Is this the problem then?

I would recommend setting up a non v-host first so you know how it works. The PASV in the documentation refers to "Passive Transfers" and on my version of WS-FTP it's found on the Advanced tab. Anyway, setup a user called anonymous (with no password). Make sure you only give this user read only access and set a limit on the directory. Set the directory to point to C:\sambar52\docs\ftp\ just for starters. Then go in and create the real directory in the same place with the same name. Put some files into this directory. then put anonymous into the username of WS-FTP and nothing into the password. Try logging in using PASV or not and you'll learn what works and what does not. You will probably have to update to the very latest beta version of Sambar to be able to allow a user like [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be able to FTP into a directory.
