Hi Rechard ! Tell-me: - What happen if you disable the ftp service of w2k3? What the error or message that occur? - Did you try log on trough another pc , for example some of xp machine? See you! Milton Matos

Did you allow the FTP service on the XP SP2 machines network access through Windows Firewall? Did you change the port numbers on each FTP server to something other than default and unique for each, and then forward the corresponding ports in the router/firewall to the correct server? Can you access the ftp services within the LAN? "...but in my defense, it was dark, I was drunk, and it was delicious!"
