| I'm trying to troubleshoot an internal network problem.
There are two computers in the network we are trying to connect - ls1.im
(192.168.1.2), and maria.im (192.168.1.17). The network uses
192.168.1.254 as a gateway to the Internet.
The problem arises when I am trying to FTP from Dreamweaver.
I set up the remote host as 192.168.1.2 (Linux box, using VSFTPd - no
problems with any other client). When I hit "test", a popup says
"Searching for host...". Dreamweaver is set to NOT use a firewall. The
machine continues to search for a minute or so, then gives up with "An
FTP connection error occurred - cannot make connection to host"
At first, I thought that maybe there is a problem with the FTP server,
so I tried connecting to it by hand.
I opened the MacOSX terminal, and typed "ftp 192.168.1.2". Instantly,
there was a connection, which I could log into with absolutely no problems.
That says to me that there is something about the Dreamweaver setup
that I am missing.
Any ideas?
