Hi,

I'm sure this is a totally newbie question.

If I setup a connection to a given FTP with WS FTP or go to the same FTP site from IE, why do I see differences in avaliable content? The content seems to be totally different. What I see and get to use in IE for example doesn't even show up in WS FTP, this also applies the other way around. the only differece being is that I need to input a user name and password in WS FTP. What am I doing wrong?

to me it would seem that you are connecting to different sites .... did you check the connection settings in both ...

Same site. No doubt.

Hey isn't that a registered trade mark that you are using for an avatar?

I never thought of that but, I guess it is. Although I am sure I have never claimed it as my own property or that I created it. I was just happy to spread the word that my home city (sort of), my Province and my Country is hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics.....I just hope that that is OK with the powers that be ....

so, anyway, which opens to the correct details IE or WS FTP ...

kind regards, Paul C. Beugeling
