Can't FTP Out On SBS 2003 Server

Hi,
We recently installed SBS 2003 Server R2 Premium. It is our only server,
so it’s our PDC, Exchange server, ISA server, etc.

We cannot seem to FTP out (we never allow inward FTP). I’ve checked the
ISA Firewall and it appears to be set to allow outward FTP. We can log into
the remote site via FTP (both from the command line and via IE), but we
cannot transfer a file any location (we’ve tried several, including one we
maintain). We have had no problems FTP’ing to these sites on our old Win2K
server.

We get an “access denied” 550 error, but nothing in the event logs tells
us why we were denied.

Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.


Thanks,
James

Uncheck the read only box on Configure FTP for any ISA rule that allows
outbound FTP access.

Steve,
That fixed it! Thanks a lot. Now all I need to do is figure out why it
works from the server but not from a user's workstation.


Thanks again,
James

Make sure the user logs out and back in so they are using the latest profile
information.
