    Unhappy

    I am trying to use the inet control to auto upload a webpage from behind a firewall. Using the control I can get the html of a page into a textbox by using the OPENURL method but I can't them seem to connect by using ftp and the Put method.

    I recieve and error stating "403.3 Forbidden: Write Access Forbidden" I know the username and passwords are correct because I am using them with Frontpage. I think it has something to do with the remotehost, remoteport, url and protocol properties.

    What I am using is
    RemoteHost = "the ip address"
    RemotePort = "21"
    URL = "the username for ftpassword@website address in http form"

    If it makes any difference we are using GateKeeper as the firewall.

    Please help this is my first project at a new position.

    Thanks in advance.
    Peter

    ??

    Cant you just lower the firewall untill you get done with the ftp? and then raise it back up?

    It doesnt take long to upload to the page will it?

    The boss would not allow that. He's a bit paranoid. Also this has to be doen numerous times a day and i was hopeing to get it to run on the system tray and do it all automatically.
