We have the exact same problem, We have an FTP site setup on a win2k3
server running IIS6.0 and Windows default firewall. A user can
connect and browse folders and even upload and/ or download small
files or small amount of files.
But if they try to upload a large number of small files it hangs.
event viewer has the following error:
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: MSFTPSVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 10
Date: 12/14/2005
Time: 11:34:11 AM
User: N/A
Computer: #######
Description:
User ftpadmin at host ###.###.###.### has timed-out after 900 seconds
of inactivity.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. (Note ### replace
identifying text items)
I have not read that article about the firewall, but I have completely
disabled the firewall and antivirus protection and that did not seem
to make a difference, any help would be appreciated
Thank you,
