It happends all the time so i can't transfer any file.
I tried gFTP, Total Commander, and FileZilla.
And none of this programs get through.

It must be something with network I'm in . Becouse when i ssh to other server and connected to ftp from it it works fine.

Do you have a shell account?

Template (free) accounts do not allow FTP access.

Hi,

Try disabling PASV.

[thoczek]

I can't disable Passiv mode becouse I'm behind NAT.

[DenisF]

Try it. you got nothing to lose.

'Sides, most routers nowdays have the brain capacity to allow active ftp traffic.

I can't disable Passiv mode becouse I'm behind NAT.

Thats strange. Working from home (using a billybox) I'm behind a NAT box, and I connect using PASV.
( I use ws-FTP, the free version. )
