Re: Question about "incoming" Message #4 Posted by Dave Hicks on 26 Mar 2002, 6:40 p.m., in response to message #1 by Stephan (CH)
Hi Stephen,
“Permission Denied” shouldn’t be a problem. GUI FTP clients print that because they always try to read the directory but this one is write-only. You should be able to ignore it and upload. (I just tried it in IE6, and WS_FTP to be sure.) You can also use the Windows command line FTP. It won’t bother you with a “permission denied because it only lists the directory when you tell it to ie:
ftp ftp.hpmuseum.org
ftp> cd incoming
250 "/incoming" is new cwd.
ftp> binary
200 Type okay.
ftp> put yourfile
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection.
226 Transfer completed.
ftp: 14 bytes sent in 0.01Seconds 1.40Kbytes/sec.
ftp> ls (This part won’t work but that’s OK)
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
.: Permission denied
226 Listing completed.
ftp: 22 bytes received in 0.01Seconds 2.20Kbytes/sec.
ftp> close
ftp> quit
If you still have problems, you probably have a firewall. Usually those can be worked around by setting your FTP client for passive mode or setting your firewall to allow FTP server rights.
