Guest Jim in Arizona Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 We have a Win2003 server as our proxy running NAT. When attempting to FTP into any ftp server using a command prompt (DOS FTP), it will connect but any commands beyond that will just hang, like 'ls' or 'dir'. I looked around for a solution and found that if you issue this command on the NAT box that it should fix the problem: netsh routing ip nat add ftp I then restarted the RRAS service. I found that using windows explorer for FTP works fine, but when using the command line FTP, it still hangs in the same way: C:\WINDOWS>ftp ftp.microsoft.com Connected to ftp.microsoft.com. 220 Microsoft FTP Service User (ftp.microsoft.com:(none)): anonymous 331 Anonymous access allowed, send identity (e-mail name) as password. Password: 230-Welcome to FTP.MICROSOFT.COM. Also visit http://www.microsoft.com/downloads. 230 User logged in. ftp> dir 501 Server cannot accept argument. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection. It hangs at 150. Any Ideas? TIA, Jim
