Klink, I think that is a fine way to go, but the only FTP problems I have is when I go out to the Internet. I don't have a firewall per se, but a DSL/Ethernet/Wireless Bridge/ Router, that does NAT. It is the NetGear MR314 for reference. I have done extensive testing using the LAN Sniffer...

No problem, thanks for the input, but you really do not want to change the MTU of the Ethernet interface - that is a hack. The TCP/IP should find the MSS it can use to talk to the destintion machine, and then limit its TCP segents to that size. The MTU for standard Ethernet interfaces should...

In investigating my previous post FTP Upload - Big Problem , I have found a serious problem with the MTU determination and TCP's MSS. On all other machines, when sending packets (during a large FTP upload) to a machine not on the local network (i.e. the Internet), the machines sends an...

Your message isn't really related to my problem, but here's your answer. There is usually a few solutions: 1) Just give yourself a static IP address in the 192 range. The other machines (and DHCP servers) will detect that it is being used, and will not use it, yet the NAT and other...

Klink, Thanks for the suggestions but I think you might be mistaken on a few issues... In general, I do not believe it has anything to do with binary versus ascii. I have manually set the mode to binary in a variety of clients with no difference in the result. See below for what I think it...

Soapvox, thanks for the input, but I'm pretty sure that's not it. The FTP Server (located on the Internet) does support passive connections, since that is how the other non-OSX machines connect. Also, I've used 'ipfw' to make sure there were no ports beng blocked. I have no other firewall...

Ok. I've been very impressed with the quality of the responses to other people's questions, so here goes... I have a small network, running behind a DSL router. The network consists of some Windows 2000 PCs, and OS9.1 Mac and some OSX Macs. The router is performing NAT, so there is only 1...
