Ipswitch WS_FTP Server

Message

Today we had a case where we had to connect to an Ipswitch WS_FTP server with secure FTP enabled. We were able to connect with the current FileZilla, but we did not get a directory listing or even get a prompt in the right hand window to change directorys etc.

The status log shows that it could connected fine, but said it could not get the directory information.

Any idea on the problem? We would prefer to use FileZilla as we are hooked on it for other purposes already.

Below is the log info

Please enter your external IP address on the firewall page in the settings dialog. FileZilla can only detect your unroutable internal address.

Hmmm, I will have to try this when I get backto the office.

I did not realize that the connection needed my external address.

I was not reading the errors that way either.

Is there anything that I should have read that would have indicated that?

thanks again

Alan

asjones.....how did you connect to the Ipswitch server? I am trying to do the same but keep getting "Can't establish SSL connection" Right now I am putting ftps://IP in the address field and fill in the rest. I can connect without SSL but need the SSL in the future. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
