Thanks, I think that'll have to be my work around till I can find more information about this. I do still consider it a work around, though, I'd like to be able to use both PORT and PASV and I'm entirely convinced it's possible. All the same, it's a good suggestion. Thank you. Now do you know how I (as the server) can force clients to use PASV, instead of PORT? -Brian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
