Hmmm...that's interesting. I get the same "403 Forbidden" using both ftp://ftp1.optonline.net/test64 and ftp://ftp1.optonline.net/pub/test64. ON SM 2.6.1, if I try the ftp://ftp1.optonline.net/pub/test64, I get an alert message saying this file does not exist. That indicates SM contacted the server and got a correct response, but on SM 2.10.1 it gets the 403 Forbidden response instead. (The link with "pub" in it was dropped years ago I think I recall. I use the first link but the second one was mentioned in the old dslr thread (see below) and so I tried it too just now. OOL is not my ISP but the test is available on the dslreports.com OOL forum for anyone to use and Google lists other forums that give the llink to it. I found this old thread: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9646984. It suggests for that user that his anon password was messed up. Could this latest SM version be mangling the anon password? BTW, this is a clean install of SM 2.10.1. It is not installed on top of an older version. I didn't think I'd like it (that is why I have still have 2.6 on the host computer) but I really do like it! > > -- > War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. > -- > Paul B.
