anyone know how to use flashfxp, or know of any free hosts that support fxp? I have figured out the jist of it, but not how to troubleshoot the unable to connect errors. it seems to work for mw=e with tripod and my paid host; says transfer complete (0 bytes sent)

=THanks

There are a few restrictions to transferring the files. Both hosts have to support PASV mode and must allow PORT commands to foreign hosts. The FXP client tells the destination FTP to listen for a connection by sending a "PASV" command. The source FTP then connects to the data port reported by the destination server (after a success PASV command). So all the data goes directly from the source to the destination FTP and both servers do only report status messages on fail/success to the FTP client. At least one of the two remote hosts has to be a non-NT FTP-server, like a UNIX host or anything else. You can move files from a non-NT FTP-server to a NT FTP-server and the other way around, but you CANNOT FXP from a NT to an NT. There are ways around this, but you can find that's beside the point.

Thanks.

Any insight into the errors I'm getting or ways around them

I have been told that tripod supports FXP

Just like FTP, it depends on what connection error is coming up. The numbers pretty much tell you what the problem is. As for the "transfer complete" problem, the folder you are trying to transfer to more than likely doesn't have the correct permissions set. Good Luck!
