User’s Guide WS_FTP Pro Problem: Connecting Only to Ipswitch FTP Site If WS_FTP Pro can connect only to the Ipswitch FTP site and nothing
else, you are using a pre-release version of WS_FTP which has timed
out. It connects to ftp.ipswitch.com to allow you to download the
current version of WS_FTP Pro.
Problem: Can Only Connect Using IP Address If WS_FTP Pro can only connect to sites using the site IP address
(for example, 123.123.123.123) and not the host name, you need to
configure the DNS (Domain Name Server) in your stack. Talk to your
network administrator or your Internet provider for the proper values
for DNS.
Problem: Connection Closes In addition to the network timeout setting within WS_FTP Pro, there
is also a “server timeout” that is determined by the FTP site. Most
FTP sites will shut down the connection to a client such as WS_FTP
Pro after a few minutes of inactivity. You can change this setting only
on the FTP site, not from WS_FTP Pro. If you are running Windows
3.x, go to the KnowledgeBase on the Ipswitch web site
(www.ipswitch.com) and search for “ slow transfer.”
Problem: Delays Under Windows 3.x If you find that uploading any file over 25K often takes more than 30
minutes, after which WS_FTP Pro “times out” and disconnects from
the site, try adding the following to your SYSTEM.INI file (for
WIN3.x):
[VNTSPSD]
MaxFramesSize=1000
Problem: WS_FTP Pro Won’t Work with
AOL, Netcom, o r CompuServe
If WS_FTP Pro won't work with AOL, Netcom, or CompuServe, you
may be using a version of AOL (plus some versions of Netcom and
