Firewall Problems

[-lutz-]

Hi,

I have tried all options in menu connections to configure my firewall. But I always get the following error if I connect a ftp site outsite the corporate LAN.

[R] Unable to resolve host: ftp.microsoft.com
[R] Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #1


If I directly login into the firewall it works and I get some messages like

[R] 230- You are authorized as firewall user "xyz".
[R] 230- Depending upon your ftp client, use either the 'user' or
[R] 230- 'quote site' command. Specify the remote user and destination
[R] 230- with the 'user' command
[R] 230- eg: user <remoteuser>@<remotehost>
[R] 230- Specify your remote destination using the 'site' command
[R] 230- eg: quote site <remotehost>

Any ideas?

Forgot to say that I have version 3.0.2 (1045) and that it works with other FTP clients in Passiv Mode.

In 3.0.2 this was changed to fail the connection if the host couldn't be resolved by FlashFXP, After releasing 3.0.2 a couple users came to us and explained their situation. We have decided that this will be changed it in the next release.

In the mean-time you could revert back to v3.0.
