Issues with FTP

Ottoman Osman 1

Hi Everyone,
I have an FTP site setup with basic anonymous authentication - and it works fine - I can connect and upload/download.

I need to add another site on the same machine but cant have them both on port 21 so I have tired to setup a binding to the hostname (it is in DNS and I can connect to the site via the hostname without the bindings setup - so I know the hostname works correctly).

When I add the binding for the site - I cannot connect to it anymore through Windows Explorer - the error says "Windows cannot access this folder. Make sure you typed the filename correctly and that you have permission... Details - A connection with the server could not be established like mafia777"

I have read some about virtual hostnames etc but am not quite sure what I need to do to set this up?

I just need anonymous with to a couple of different FTP sites on the same box. I guess I could use different ports - but this should be doable on 21 I thought?

Thanks

Hi @Ottoman Osman ,

What's the binding information? Did you bind it to port 21 or any other port? If you didnot use port 21, maybe firewall rejected the request. Try to disable firewall and connect again.
