We're trying to do some FTP uploads with FTPsocket in Squeak 1.31. It works great with out local UNIX system, but we can't seem to make it work with any Mac-based FTP servers (e.g., Netpresenz, NCSA Telnet's FTP Server). We can't find one that supports passive transfers.
My questions are:
- Does anyone know of an FTP server that we can use on a Mac that supports
passive transfers? (Security folk are more willing to allow us to do anonymous FTP uploads to a Mac than to a UNIX box.)
- Or, is it hard to convert FTPSocket to do active transfers?
It should be quite easy. Ted did the original FTPsocket in less than a day. You just need to get the FTP protocol spec, which is available on the web as an "RFC". I think you can find it starting at starting at www.org

P.S. We did passive mode just because it works better from behind certain types of firewalls.
