FEATURED TIP: What do those FTP codes mean?

Have you ever encountered an error when trying to connect to an FTP
site and seen a cryptic FTP error code? What do these numbers mean?

Whenever you attempt to communicate with an FTP server, it returns a
code to your FTP client, such as WS_FTP, to let you know the status
of your request. Most of the time, the communication has no problems
and WS_FTP simply records it to the FTP log. However when there is an
error, such as a bad userid or password, WS_FTP gives you the "uh-oh"
sound and reports the returned error code.

In WS_FTP Pro, you will see this error code as red text in the Log
Window accompanied by a brief description. For example: 530 Invalid
userid/password.

If you are using WS_FTP LE however, you do not have the benefit of
the red text or the brief description.

If you are interested, you can find a list of the
FTP codes with their
meanings on FTPplanet.com
.

You can also search on the FTP code using FTPplanet.com's
search box (located at the top of each page). This is particularly
helpful if you're trying to get to the bottom of a problem associated
with that particular code.

could win a free copy of WS_FTP Pro 7.6!

Featured review: 
George Hunt, 4 Planets

"I am quite satisfied with GeoCities web hosting. Customer support is
excellent and prompt response to questions is the norm. Page Builder
is easy to learn and very user friendly. I have full confidence in using
GeoCities to host my on-line business. My web site looks quite
professional and is easy to maintain (although I'll take some of the
credit for the design work.) I have been using them for the past 5
months and they've proven to be reliable 24/7. GeoCities It's definitely
the most cost-effective solution for small start-ups like this project.
With GeoCities you don't have to be a technical guru to create a
noteworthy web presence either!"

George won a free copy of WS_FTP Pro for providing this week's
