- I think theres a firewall built into Jaguar... And I think it says something like connection failed... I'll get someone to check though.
- I created another user account on my computer for people to log into cause thats what someone told me to do before...

If you have a FW/router on your network, you will need to map the FTP port to your machine. The FW will translate that port from the WAN IP to the IP and port of the address you specify. If you are using a FW in Jaguar, you will need to allow it there as well.
When you open FTP access in Jaguar's sharing, even with the firewall on I believe it opens up port 21 doesn't it?
- Do you get an FTP prompt?
- Where do you connect to? (is it passive enabled? Are you? Tried it?)
- Can you execute the LS command?
Or does it just do nothing?
If it doesn't do a thing, just timeout, can you ping the IP?
If so....then there is something blocking the path. And it can be anything between you and the server, but most likely
a. you
b. your router
c. receivers router
If it is a or b
Make sure TCP ports 20 and 21 are enabled (21 is for the command session and 20 is for the data session)
If it's C, ask them to check their TCP port 20 and 21
If you can't ping the other side, then you might have a connection problem and there isn't a path between client and host (provided ICMP traffic is enabled (Ping))
Hope it's a bit clear, since im a bit on scotch
Hope it helps

Darn..... can't help you there
I've just received my PB... it's still making it's first charge
from unix, you go to a shell and just type
Ping [IP-adress]
(without the brackets)
