how are all those computers connected to the internet?
each of them has dialup connection or you have router
or you are using one of them to run proxy server?

this may not help, depending on the program you are using to FTP, but here goes anyways...

Many FTP programs have a small window that shows the actual list of commands being sent back and forth between you and the FTP server ( like a listing of DOS command line entries ) . During the exchange, you should see where things are going wrong. Maybe something like login failed, user name rejected, time-out, etc. Most commands are given as a number, followed by a very short description of the command, and then a response.

Any error should show up as a " failed to .... whatever" From this you should be able to sort out where the communication is breaking down.

here is a link to the program I use alot, WS-FTP, including a screenshot showing the info I refer to :

i have used the username, ip and password before. it saves them.

Hi, what I was hoping to see was the debug window,( right behind the File Transfer Log Window in your screenshot.

)

If you can get a log of the connections debug output, you should have a good chance of determining why the connection fails.

Try running CuteFTP in debug mode, with all connection settings to "automatic", this may help get the settings right.

here is a listing of some of the numbers infront of the debug output:

1yz Positive Preliminary reply. The request action has been initiated,but another reply is to be expected before the client issues another command

2yz Positive Completion reply. The requested action has successfully completed, and the client may issue another command

3yz Positive Intermediate reply. The command has been accepted, but more information is required. The client should send another command in reply.

4yz Transient Negative reply. The command failed, but it can be retried

5yz Permanent Negative Completion reply. The command failed, and should not be repeated.

The yz of each number above will be 2 digits that define the exact code, ie,
550 nonexistentdir: The system cannot find the file specified.
230 User xxxxx logged in.
