FTPS passive data port range needed

[Patrick Tripp]

Hi,

What passive data port range is being used by the ftp.hycom.org FTPS server?

I see the server is using some range around 55000-60000 from my connection timeout errors.

I'm trying to use the ftps://ftp.hycom.org server, but it appears the client side firewall is blocking the passive data ports. I want to verify the actual ports configured for your ftps server before asking my client to reconfigure their firewall to allow these ports.

Thank you,

Patrick

Have you tried HTTP/HTTPS Access? This is typically more firewall friendly than ftps and it also works in a web browser.

Yes, I am also using HTTP. The Internet speed is extremely slow on the server I am downloading to and I am trying to add an extra 8 FTP downloads.

Thanks,

Patrick
