Hi Steve

You could try:
ftp://127.0.0.1 (equivalent to localhost IP)

If that does not work, try checking the port that your ftp server is
configured for.  Normally port 21 is used, so if it is anything else,
include this in the url e.g.:
ftp://127.0.0.1:21
ftp://localhost:21

Otherwise I'd have to guess that ftp is not set up properly??

Hope this helps,
Andrew

Subject: [html_code_clinic] Dymanic link for ftp: site

I am trying to find a way to set a link from default webpage which is on
my D: drive under inetpub, wwwroot and go to my FTP site on the same
server and drive but it is under inetpub, ftproot. My server has a dynamic
IP so I can not hard code it. I can put in dymanic webpages which work
fine but I can not find how to do the same for my FTP site. Can anyone
help I have tried everything I can think of.
(ftp://localhost, ../../ftproot, ftp://, etc....)I am running on a windows
2000 server using IIS as my website.
