ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Maybe the login userid does not have write (upload) access to that particular server or folder?Does it only happen for certain file types (what file types)?What is the target system (server)?What is the FTP client?

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Not sure what you mean "paste it in FTP" - is that the target folder name?You really do not give us much information to go on; it would be much easier if we actually knew some details.

Scarecrow Man Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Who owns the ftp? You may have to ask the Administrator to provide you access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homecomputeraid Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 FTP can require authentication beyond NTFS permissions (assuming you're using Windows based servers). Are you using a web browser to try to move the files with FTP, or a third party application such as Bullet Proof FTP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanmaya Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Hi,FTP user has limited access to restricted area. So You can see multiple folders under the folder where Directory listing is allowed for your login but You can write/paste the data only in allowed folders. So as your question was not much descriptive, its hard to answer, where exactly you are asking about.. If you can elaborate your question, then it will be easy for us to comment on it.
