a little ftp help...again[views:1560][posts:11]_____________________________________________ [Jul 16,2006 5:59pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] i keep trying to log in to the server space i have, and it keeps saying "the operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found." the guy who hooked me up with the server space just said to download some ftp client software. i've got all that, but apparently it's not enough. anyone got any ideas as to what i need now? |

Go to the start menu, go to run, enter "ftp", and do it manually. It's a pain in the ass having to type in every command and upload files one at a time, but if something as straightforwards and simple as dos ftp doesn't work, I would have to wonder if the problem wasn't on the server end. I'm just taking a shot in the dark here, though... |
| _____________________________________________ [Jul 17,2006 9:28pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] thanks for the advice shadow. unfortunately, i forgot to mention that i'm on a mac, so i have no start menu, haha |
| ___________________________________ [Jul 17,2006 11:28pm - ShadowSD ""] Ha, well then I'm useless, I don't know whether macs even use dos... (I think I'm still holding a subliminal grudge against the crappy macs we used to have in middle school in the 80's, because I've never tried a mac since). |
