2/2 FTP question. I am trying to transfer a 5 gigabytes file to another
computer (both are PC running Windoze). Doesn't really matter which
client I used, after the end of transfering all 5 gigabyte, it said
something like "450 can't access" and doesn't write the file to the
FTP site. I am running Filezilla Server on the other end. Why such
error?
\_ that's not an ftp question, it's a filezilla question. either that
or ftp doesn't support files that large.
\_ I am running Filezilla and made sure it has all the access.
(both computers are in same LAN).
\_ Is the destination PC using FAT32 or NTFS? FAT32 limits files
to 4GiB.
\_ Props for using Gibibytes.
\_ Here's a nickle kid, buy yourself a real computer.
\_ save your nickel, and buy yourself a dictionary.
\_ why are you ftping from one host to another on the same LAN? just
share out the directory and copy the file.
\_ I never really figured out how to config microsoft network
\_ Right-click on directory, 'sharing', 'share as',
on client PC 'mount network drive',
'\\computername\sharename' Geez. -John
\_ there is more to it than that. There is this thing
called "workgroup" thingy. and I don't know which port
or service MS is used to share file. the entire thing
is a lot more mysterious than simply setting up a FTP
and let go
\_ I'd appreciate it if you'd at least try to be
vaguely amusing when pretending to be an ignorant
fuckwit on the motd. -John
\_ Hey guys, thanks all for the input. It turned out that none
of the GUI clients (Filezilla, Internet Explorer) I used worked
well. The text client that came with Windoze actually gotten
pretty far: it hit the 4GB limit before everything died. And
yes, that partition of the Harddrive is FAT32. Thanks for
pointing that out for me. And for your information, Filezilla
seems to be a relatively stable FTP client, eventhough on my
P3/384mb machine, it can handle about 1000 files on its queue
before it start to thrash --OP
\_ Yeah whatever, next time don't come here with your crap. You
can't figure out the mysteries of windows file sharing? My
parents managed that much on their own. Don't come back.
\_ On behalf of the human race, I am pleased to announce that
we're revoking your membership until such time as you can
see that someone else pissing in your cornflakes still does
not excuse you being an asshole on the motd. |
